Yet it's reported that Lebron brought LA a title (misreporting)

So it's easy to call someone the GOAT by misreporting their career and giving them credit for things that teammates did.

That's why AD is top 75 - it's been his team since he arrived in LA and turned the team around - everyone saw what AD could do with a little help.

This historical timeline says it's AD, and it also said that AD turned the Lakers defense from worst to first, while leading them in scoring for entire regular season and playoffs - he was #1 in NBA for playoff scoring and outplayed Jokic, yet he doesn't get credit for the title? Since when has the playoff scoring champ not gotten credit for the title at "that guy" on the team?.. 1-9 before pippen (8 ppg) > lottery before AD (playoff scoring champ)

Ok but how do you get Gervin and Woolridge as running mates and still go 1-9 until Along Came Scottie??

I mean THATS crazy.

AD wouldn't have even been in LA if LeBron wasn't so...

Don't bother replying to me. I won't see it.

Who's arrival in Chicago brought Chicago a title?.. Jordan in 1985 or Pippen in 1988?

The Bulls were a 1-9 laughingstock who couldn't even muster a winning season in Jordan's first 3 years, Pippen arrives and they immediately start winning playoff series and then later on championships. Even after Baldan retired Pippen was leading them to one of the best records in the league.

So it's easy to call someone the GOAT by misreporting their career and giving them credit for things that teammates did.

Those facts are superseded by the fact that Lebron was lottery in 2019 - AD did not join a contender and infact made them one with league-leading stats.. Again, when has the playoff scoring champ that outplayed the league MVP not gotten credit for winning the title? It would be like giving 95' Drexler the credit for winning the title instead of the playoff scoring champ that outplayed the league MVP (Hakeem)

Jordan's in 85' obviously

It shook the whole world and league and brought skills and riches to future athletes like Lebron or Kobe that wouldn't otherwise have been there.

Obviously AD. Without him, Lebron hasn't even been able to make the playoffs as a Laker.

And it was STILL a bubble joke of a ring.

Truth hurts.

Anthony Davis no doubt

Why can't it be both?!?

Lebron and AD were 1a/1b in 2020. Lebron more impactful on offense and AD more impactful on defense.

I find it curious that there have been alot of permabanned accounts, but 3ball gets these cute little 3 day timeouts. Makes you wonder if we're all being duped.

Yup well said, I agree.

AD was better than LeBron...And Jordan ever were in 2020. Worst to first on one side of the ball, let alone defense is some shit no wing or smaller guy is capable of.

Bigs are the best, most dominant playersi n NBA history. Hakeem, Garnett, Duncan, Shaq Kareem, give me all of those guys over any wing.

Defensively no doubt but I don't agree on bigs being more dominant than forwards in the modern era.

AD is special man.. can guard 1-5 no problem. Lakers didn't just improve on D because of AD though, that's a little dishonest. The roster changed so much in that 1 year. They had good defenders at all positions and multiple bigs who played great D.

We are obviously talking about the on court side of it, catch up, champ

Did LeFailure make the playoffs there without AD?

Or was that the year he activated playoff mode early and still couldn't make it?

Pretty much this ^^ AD was best player against Nuggets that year in the playoffs that buzz beater was cold blooded.
