Why? He's no Lebron.
[IMG]http://www.gifsforum.com/images_new/gif/other/grand/3b4fd155397932e7efc7c0a04faccb92.gif[/IMG]
Notice Speights on baseline, left of the rim - ideally, he'd be waiting under the rim the whole time to contest Lebron.. But today's defensive 3 seconds rule doesn't allow defenders to wait in the 16 x 19 foot painted area if no one is within [url=http://www.nba.com/nba101/misunderstood_0708.html]armslength[/url] (about 3 feet).. So Speights has walk to AWAY from the rim to remain within armslength of his man, which prevents him from contesting Lebron.
Otoh, in previous eras, [url=http://nbahoopsonline.com/History/Leagues/NBA/Rules/Fouls.html]Rule 2b[/url] of the Illegal Defense Guidelines allowed defenders to remain in the paint "with no time restriction" if their man was anywhere inside the paint, or within 3 feet or either side.. So in the clip above, Speights would've been waiting under the rim to contest Lebron and force him into a tougher shot.
.
Both MJ and LeBron are elite athletes, just depends if you like bigger and stronger or quicker and more agile. Both are fast as fvck and could jump through the roof.
[QUOTE=3ball][size="3"]Lebron is not elite off two feet - only off one foot.. Whereas Jordan was elite in all ways.[/size]

lol, neither of those are comparable in takeof clearence to any of those jordan gifs you showed up there, especially not the first one where he gets fouled 50 times...
Even though Lebron indeed jumps higher of one leg his two feet jumping was elite at the very least... and yes Jordan jumped higher of two feet...

LeBron's athleticism is transcendental, but still inferior to Jordan's.
