[SIZE="3"]Confirmed: Lebron's first step is average for SF's and slow as molasses compared to MJ.

This is just another example of how Lebron's game can't compare to the GOAT combination [url=http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11021030&postcount=6][u]of skill and athleticism[/u][/url].[/SIZE]

[QUOTE=heyhey]i have made this point multiple times, Jeremy Lin of all people has a better first step than Lebron[/QUOTE]

""Of all people" Jeremy Lin has a quicker first step than most of the league so that isn't surprising. Only a few guys like healthy Rose, Wall are quicker.

LeBron has a tremendous first step for a 6'8" 260lb guy, not sure why you'd compare him to a guard :confusedshrug:

How many guys at 6'8 260 lbs have a quick first step? :coleman:

Yeah its good for being 250, obviously not as good as a point guard. He's still the best athlete in the league though due to power, speed, jumping ability etc.

Lighter lebron during the early years in Cleveland was much quicker
