Best Athlete in the NBA

[HighFlyer23]

Who is it? Still Lebron?

[ISHGoat]

King James

[SexSymbol]

Iggy, Westbrook, Zach Lavine if we're just going off pure vertical.
Green is still athletic as **** even at his age.

[feyki]

Westbrook imo .

[Klay 3D]

Isaiah Thomas is the correct answer.

[Meticode]

Pound for pound? Westbrook to me. In terms of sheer size? LeBron.

His answer was actually very solid, lol what was wrong with it?

[Indian guy]

Westbrook by far.

[aj1987]

Iggy is not one of the top 5 best athletes in the league. LeBron and Gordon, for instance, are much more athletic than Iggy.

[kamil]

Athlete? Westbrook.

Player? Curry.

Flopper? LeBron*

I've always been impressed by his athleticism


I think Westbrook (poverty vertical and all) is on another level. He absolutely explodes sometimes

Football - Lebron
Rugby - Lebron
Hockey - Lebron
Baseball - Lebron
Lacross - Lebron
Soccer - Ginobli

[ShawkFactory]

Obviously not still Lebron. He hasn't been the best athlete in the league since 2012/2013ish.


Westbrook, Levine, etc

Again, Iggy is extremely athletic, but he's not on the level of WB, LeBron, Gordon, Lavine, etc..

Agreed. Put current Wade's mind in his body and he's be BY FAR the best player in the league. No one would even come close.

It may or may not be, but look at everyone else compared to Westbrook, he's moving at a different speed

[theaussieguy]

Westbrook imo .

hahaha, 36.5 inch vertical GTFO.

Pre injury rose is the obvious choice. These days the best overall athlete is still Bron.

[Inferno]

Bron and Westbrook

[Graviton]

Haven't seen a signature Westbrook dunk in a while, he is so focused on assists nowadays he doesn't attack as often. :facepalm

nothing to do with that, its to do with the fact he had an absolutely POVERTY 36.5 inch vertical in his 'athletic' prime, and with just a small decline he can only just barely scrape it in. This is the usual outcome though.

Baseball - Lebron

LeBron is terrible at baseball.

[Round Mound]

Lebron still...

[Prime_Shaq]

Steven Adams...

[hold this L]

:rockon:

[DCL]

some athletes have 40"+ verts but play like they only got 20" vert because they have no ability to get to the rim. the only time they're flying is during a layup line.

you can clown on westbrook's measured vert all day, but the dude can explode to the rim when there's half-court defense.

Seems 39-40 inches at least in that photo ;

if by explode you mean denied, I agree

His vert is pretty well documented at 36.5 max and 30.0 no step.

:oldlol:

Westbrook would explode in your face bro, even with his poverty 36.5 :coleman:

[eliteballer]

Westbrook's measured vert is coming out of COLLEGE. It's no doubt higher now with NBA training than it was as a 19 year old or whatever he was.

[feyki]

His vert is pretty well documented at 36.5 max and 30.0 no step.

In 2008 ?

[leMVP]

At 6'8 250

Lebron is the best athlete in the NBA currently.

[SamuraiSWISH]

I didn't know Westbrook had such a weak vertical. I would say LeBron still and Russ are the best athletes. Before injury D Rose was even more athletic than Westbrook.
