Would he still be averaging 30+ in his prime if the refs called him fairly and stopped him stiff arming defenders?

LeBron does it as bad, if not worse.

would lebron be effective if he was called for traveling on every drive and called for offensive fouls on every post up? Because he travels a shit load and he uses his elbow nearly every post up.

He'd be just as effective as lebron if he couldn't do his swim move or charge over guys. Or Mj if he couldn't palm or stiff arm himslef. Shaq without rag dolling other bigs. Wilt without goaltending. The list goes on and on. Greats get away with shit, even your favorite.

The gimmick where you apply lebrons exact weaknesses/tendencies to other players isn't funny.

Most superstars and elite defensive players get away with this, as do Centers. Giving a couple still shots of Kobe pushing/elbowing someone doesn't mean he always gets away with it nor does it mean that he does it every game.. Great players like Jordan and Kobe found ways to play this kind of defense without getting caught doing it.

So you admit Jordan and Kobe's stats are inflated due to getting away with violations without the refs noticing? They didnt play fair and took advantage of lax officiating?

He'll Mike bibby's face fouled kobe's elbow in the wcf. Lebron traveled for a game winner or 2 in the playoffs. Hell Mj pushed off on the what is widely considered the most iconic shot in nba history. Give it a rest.
