Basketball skills peaked with Kobe (what if)

[305Baller]

What if:
What if basketball skills peaked with Kobe and the new rules usher in a shooting and athleticism-based era which will see basketball completely move away from anything resembling the 70s to the 00s? Will we look at Kobe and Jordan in awe like magicians?

LeBron can shoot it now, tho

only reason he is as effective as he has been lately

We already look at those two as magicians or deity basketball wise LOL Kobe just a little more finesse, and three ball oriented, a slightly worse version of MJ. Jordan, the GOAT, more athletic, and better finisher at the rim.

There's a double standard with lebron - i.e. Reggie Miller scored 3500 more than Bird, and we rightfully give 2 bird shits because Larry averaged 6 more ppg

How much more dominant would lebron be if he could get 5 more ppg on better efficiency per possession?

MJ has better per game raw stats, which is what matters

And better advanced stats (only MJ is top 2 in PER, BPM, VORP, and WS/48, while setting the record for plus-minus)

But yes, I'd love to hear how lebron's outdated stats (defensive rebounds and point guard assists) are more valuable than the new school stats that actually matter (offensive/defensive efficiency and plus-minus)

I won't even mention the MVP count (11 to 7), ring count (6 to 3), or seasons as both 1st team all-nba and 1st team all-defense (9 to 5)

Only MJ is 30/5/5 in regular season, playoffs, and Finals, with 3 - 6 more ppg than lebron in RS, playoffs, and Finals on better efficiency.. seriously, what's the argument

Mike has better stats than LeBron, and twice the amount of teams success.

Would’ve been even more had he not retired in his prime, or Pippen and Krause not destroyed their chances in the 1999 lockout short in season. They would’ve absolutely bitch slapped the young Spurs.

The only thing LeBron has on Jordan is accumulative stats, That’s not better production, that means he played longer.

Le3/9 having never taken a sabbatical from basketball, his father never died because his father never wanted him ...

And with post modern blood doping and player enhancement drugs, a softer league physically accentuating offensive production, LeBron is able to play much, much longer than Jordan.

He’s achieved the accumulative stats both in the regular season and the playoffs, in basically playing 2 to 4 more seasons than Jordan. Taking into account Michael had two seasons where he played less than a quarter of the games. In 86 and 95. And in 1986, was on a ****ing minutes restriction.
