    So you're saying Jordan did more with less than Lebron? Ok. The one dominant genetic Lebron doesn't have over Jordan is the one between his ears. Killer mentality, the will to win, High BBIQ.

    I don't even know why I'm investing this much thought into this. This thread is ass...

    Here's a copy-paste from the Wiki article on regression to the mean and height.

    The phenomenon is better understood if we assume that the inherited trait (e.g., height) is controlled by a large number of recessive genes. Exceptionally tall individuals must be homozygous for increased height mutations on a large proportion of these loci. But the loci which carry these mutations are not necessarily shared between two tall individuals, and if these individuals mate, their offspring will be on average homozygous for "tall" mutations on fewer loci than either of their parents. In addition, height is not entirely genetically determined, but also subject to environmental influences during development, which make offspring of exceptional parents even more likely to be closer to the average than their parents.

    I think one thing about why people loved drawing comparisons with the up and coming players back then, was that even during his college career, no one expected him to be this exceptional. Hence why even conparing footages, people can state such claim.

    The thing about LeBron was his dominant size and quickness at his age, along with a frame which allowed potential for growth.


    The same can really be said about Oden. Who i would say was getting more hype over the likes of AD.

    What truly separated between those two?

    Who knows

    MJ married a puertorican, they're short people. He should've married a black woman, or a tall white woman. Imagine MJ's sons with that light skinned black athleticism of Curry/Gerald Green/Lavine.
