how much more dominate would lebron be if he played in the 90s

[King Jane]

how much better would his numbers be

the fact that zone defence was illegal back in the day

elevated pace and weak 1 on 1 defence

against a league of lesser defenders like craig ehlo and dan marley

[sd3035]

he would average 50-15-12

In wilt's era he would average at least 80

Dominant. The word is dominant. This is like a common occurrence on here.

This board is where the American school system comes to fail.

[Dro]

In before 3ball..........And he'll be exactly right.......

[ISHGoat]

the better question would be what would lebrons numbers look like if he got to play the high tempo teams likephoenix suns, denver nuggets, warriors (pre curry era) 3-4 times a year

instead they face teams like bulls, pacers, pistons, etc who are all known for grind-it-out defence

the west is fraud

[andgar923]

I'm bored so...

Clogged lanes and less 3pt shooting will prevent most of his drives and assists. He has weak ball handling so hand checking will give him issues. His post game is meek if there's a body around. He takes 15 seconds to do anything. He gets tired by playing isolation one on one and guarding a stand still player, instead he'd be getting doubled and triple teamed, along with getting bumped, grabbed and have to chase players through multiple screens set by players like Benoit Benjamin, Kevin Willis, Oakley, Thorpe, Purdue, Mason, etc etc etc.

If by "dominate" you mean be less efficient, lower stats, loose more energy, then yeah much more dominate.

He'd take 60 shots a game without wearing down?

[Spurs m8]

Op is a punish

[pauk]

I think B- or maybe B+ at best, with some occasional C & C+ games, probably average a B....

:oldlol:

[BlakFrankWhite]

He would get molested by Jordan,Rodman,Payton,Pippen...and all the other elite defenders of the era.

[jstern]

I always wondered how he would do back in the 90s. His game would certainly be different because of the rule changes. I think he would still be a top player, just that his game would be different.

I just did a YouTube search for hand checking, found this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izMs91Q72hg

[DCL]

OP, your engrisha is very suck.

[Funktion]

Bran would have demanded to play out West.

^^^^ the entire panel (barkley/steve-kenny smith/kerr), all 90s players, have said lebron would be even BETTER in that era, because he'd use the implemented rules att to his advantage.

i would assume ~2-3 more points, ~2 or 3 more assists, and a few more rebounds. his shooting percentages would go up too because of the shortened 3pt line, and lack of double teams he'd face - meaning more iso basketball.

lebron would be the basketball zeus of the 90s

Please. LeBron's a freak athlete and he would dominate. Be saltier.

[Reggie43]

Better numbers yet would struggle to win even one chip

[Asukal]

Zone defense? How bout you tell us how they used zone defense to stop lebaldo from playing iso ball in the post this 2015 finals? :rolleyes:

And its DOMINANT not DOMINATE, go back to school you dumb fck! :whatever:

[Spurs m8]

I honestly can't believe how retarded you lebron ****wits are hahaha

Its like you switched on bball within the last couple of years and have watched nothing else but LeBron.

Serious mental issues some of you

[King Jane]

american blokes dont know shit about english im from the uk you knob slobering yanks

if ur gonna steal our language at least do it right theirs no n in dominate

[MiseryCityTexas]

Lebron would been just as good as prime Grant Hill if he would have played in the mid 90s. There wouldn't have been any Jerry Stackhouse hype if Lebron would have played in the mid 90s.
