Lebron's greatest flaw is his inability or unwillingness to pull up off the drive. Lebron's step backs almost always come out of the triple threat, or against an opponent who is already playing off him.
If Lebron commits to a drive it is almost always going to be a shot at the rim, or a kickout to a shooter. Driving to the basket is Lebron's most elite skill which is why surrounding him with shooters has been mandatory his entire career.
If Lebron has more of a pull up midrange game, he would be much more able to negate the effects of bad spacing.
His lack of midrange game ultimately makes him predictable. His all around style of play also makes it difficult to put the right pieces around him (complementary players)

Then explain how LeBron managed to be a star in this league and still after 17 years LeBron is still going? I mean opposing teams had 17 years to gameplan for LeBron to shut him down. Explain that shit. Your post is so ****ing idiotic.

Shit, LeBron is going to be 2nd in MVP voting in his 17th year. Pretty damn good for a player that supposedly has total reliance on the triple threat, no footwork, and no midrange game. Dumb ass take.

theres a reason why hes an underachiever. Kawhi a nobody coming into this league already has 2 legit rings while lebron only has ringchasers rings. And all around players will always be overrated. Theres a reason why kawhi has no MVP yet while westbrook, harden and lebron already have 6 MVPs combined yet no legit ring to show for it.

Even if you do believe this, jack of all trades is better than master on none.

Well, master of a few things. He has the most playoff: points, steals, VORP, game winners, Win Shares, highest single Finals run PER.

LeBron sacrificed 5 chips for a few counting stats. Otoh, had he have MJ’s determination, skill, and volume scoring at the goat efficiency then he could also be perfect in the finals
This account has to be mocking 3ball

Does he also get an 8x 1st team all defense player that wins 55 games while LBJ is away for 2 years resting?

Win Shares is a longevity stat and is ridiculous when comparing players. I'm going to show you 3 players to illustrate my point, Kobe, Magic, and Bird. Does anyone except the diehard Kobestans think Kobe is better than Magic or Bird?
Win Shares
16. Kobe Bryant 172.74
21. Magic Johnson 155.79
24. Larry Bird 145.83
But look what happens when you use WS/48 to compare these three
9. Magic Johnson .2249
21. Larry Bird .2032
59. Kobe Bryant .1705
Looks much better.

Don't disrespect Lebron like that
He is the master of flopping and getting dumped on in the Finals
Put some respect into those traits
Beta Lebron does have CP3 and Wade as his kid's god father. The flopping bunch

Goes both ways. Kobe's WS/48 is obviously affected by coming into the league much younger than Magic & Bird and playing way past his prime like Magic & Bird and didn't have all-time great teammates around him in the middle of his prime. The WS stat obviously is affected by how good the team is around the player. They all peaked at around .260 in their title runs in the Playoffs.

I don't disagree. I'm not a big fan of win shares personally for the reasons you stated. I was responding to Rico's posting on win shares being skewed.

ONLY the GOAT and someone who has mastered every aspect of basketball could pull this off on the biggest stage
Jack of all trades, master of every stat

LeBron is a master of scoring, playmaking/passing, understanding the game, leadership, defense, and off the court actives (knows how to take care of his body)
Master of every element of basketball when you think about it.
Bran is also a master of losing six finals during the last decade. :rockon:

I think OP was looking for the name Carol Butler on this one.
