maybe lebron isn't on steroids

[Yeezy]

maybe this era just allows multiple vlade Divac like stiffs that are good slow bulky decision makers to dominate like jokic, luka.

doncic is leading in paint points I think. would this ever happen in a real era lol

durants slow as hell playing on 1 leg after an achilles injury and hasn't really dipped in scoring

embiid plays at the pace of big country bryant reeves and practically does whatever he wants offensively

porzingis went from a unicorn to a bust then back to a unicorn somehow

Laurri markkanin suddenly looks like a superstar

Bojan bogdanovic suddenly looks like a superstar

anthony davis is suddenly back on his bubble level of play

I think the top 5 PERs are near all time records lol






look at this small clip from jokers recent near 50/30/20 game

the nba just sucks now. it's not a good product

[Full Court]

So you're saying Jokic and Bogdanovich are on steroids?

what are they averaging? like 25 a game almost lol. what other era other than the 1950s would this happen


theyre allstar candidates at the very least

[Yeezy]

someone needs to sign Demarcus cousins immediately

[GrayGoat]

Nah LeBron is that good.

OP seems very indecisive as a poster. Just yesterday he implied Jokic deserves MVP so far and now he is saying he is Vlade Divac.

He also thinks Kobe is top 5.

They've averaging 21-22 ppg, which is what the likes of immortals like Mike James, Corey Maggatte, Al Harrington, Devin Harris & Tyreke Evans were averaging during Kobe's peak years from '06-'10.

37-year Lebron is worse than 38-year old MJ

but I agree that he's better than 39-year old MJ and 40-year old MJ - literally - MJ got hurt around Game 45 of 2002, which was around his 39th birthday - he couldn't dominate after that and Lebron will be done at 39 too - mark my words - so he has 1 more year at this level - around this SAME TIME NEXT YEAR, he'll be done - book it.

Even if you are right, imagine thinking someone being "done" at 39 is a bad thing.

Kobe was done at 35
Bird was basically done at like 34
Shaq was done at around 34
Hakeem? 35

Only Kareem, LeBron & Karl Malone played at a very high level in their late 30's.

Nah LeBron is that good.

if I had to compare him to someone from the 90s like I did with jokic and vlade. I would say lebron is 95 magic Johnson...


another guy who would dominate today's league

minimum 25/12/10 average

he does. mvp of a clown league

what does winning mvp this year have to do with how pathetic the game has been reduced to. I'm just going based on the media's own criteria. I'm the most fair and balanced poster here. always have been

1 legged kobe plopped into today's nba would actually be somewhat acceptable. probly a 22/5/4 guy on 43%

[FultzNationRISE]

Stats are inflated compared to slower, more physical eras. Dont think many debate that.

That doesnt have anything to do with whether players are better or worse.

And I'm sure OP's right, some players who were "pretty good" in other eras might be even better today. Meanwhile other players from those eras wouldnt even make the league today. Just depends on what their games were and how they'd jive with today. You could say someone like Thomas Bryant might have been Alonzo Mourning if he played in the past, while today he's just Thomas Bryant. You could speculate on how someone fits another era six ways to sunday.

At the end of the day it's different eras, and a different game. The only one who indisputably transcends is Lebron.

Lebron has been the biggest team underachiever this year and last year, so he isn't playing at a high level and certainly not at the level of jordan BEFORE jordan turned 39 (and getting hurt)- 38 year Jordan was a WINNER (4 seed) and averaged similar numbers (25/5/5) with 3 game-winners and 5 forty-point games (1 fifty point game)... That destroys Lebron and Lebron has a great cast and easy era (teams allow 10 more points per 100 possessions than 2002).
