Re: The more I watch Lebron the more I am starting to think he's better than MJ
[QUOTE=Solefade]lol lebron makes any team a contender tbh being favorites to win is a different conversation.[/QUOTE]
You're goin to sit there and tell me, a team like the bucks that won 15 games this season would now become one among several contenders to win a championship with the addition of Lebron?
Think about that dude. They won 15 games this season.
Re: The more I watch Lebron the more I am starting to think he's better than MJ
[QUOTE]I think they are. They wouldn't be favorites but Lebron would have them competitive. Who did he have while in Cleveland? Yet he was able to have the best record twice with them and reach the Finals another time.[/QUOTE]
But was that saying much considering how weak the conference was. 23 year old Dwight Howard also took his team to the Finals in that span. And his second best player was Jameer Nelson. A shorter stockier Mo Williams. Who missed litterally half the season. Whats the difference?

The Magic had a much stronger roster around Howard. They had all-star caliber players in Turkoglu, Lewis, Nelson. Nelson was hurt during most of the playoffs but Turk was a 17/5/5 player and Lewis an 18 ppg scorer.

[QUOTE=Derivative]I know that MJ is the GOAT, but the more I watch Lebron these days the more I think that he's a more dominant player than MJ.
Even more so when I watch Cavaliers Lebron videos, especially in 2009, he was godlike during those years.[/QUOTE]
How old are you?
This should be entertaining.

nets pistons and pacers but the nets were the only contenders for the first two years of the century then the pistons and pacers and from 04-07' it pistons(04') heat(05-06) and then the cavs "upset" the pistons and the celtics big-3 from 08'-10 and now we're in the miami era.
point is the east was very top heavy but never had any depth to it just like now.

[QUOTE=ILLsmak]that's a good pic for threads cuz you have to scroll down until you see he's blind. Or I did.
LeBron isn't even that good. lol I keep sayin' it and people are like WAT. I mean he's good, but he's just not on that all-time greatest level. He's gonna have a resume, but in terms of actual talent, I dunno how people can say Bron is the GOAT. Some sad shit.

[QUOTE=Roundball_Rock]It is not a coincidence the Bulls started winning when a pass-first player became the primary ball-handler[/quote]
I think you mean the triangle offense.
Your agenda isn't that subtle, or gone unnoticed. A notorious poster attempting to diminish Jordan. There was no "primary ball-handler" on the championship Bulls team. It was done by comittee. Paxson, BJ, Pippen, Jordan, Harper, Brown, Kukoc, Kerr etc.
The nature of their offense required copious amounts of cutting, and ball movement. A playmaking PG, or Point Forward like LeBron who dominates the ball or creates off the dribble typically would suffer in Tex Winter's system.
