    Default What's more athletic a lion or a black panther?

    Lebron being the lion and mj the black panther obviously. I saw an article yesterday where dame said he'd choose mj's athleticism over brons and i thought that was kind of interesting. I know we've had this discussion before on here but its an interesting debate on who's the better athlete in relation to basketball. Bron obviously gets the edge in strength but everything else probably goes to mj. Speed is and interesting debate. Im not sure who's faster between the 2 but mj was most definitely quicker in every aspect of the game. First step, change of direction, jumping ect. It's brons quickness combined with his size and strength that makes it hard to say.

    Mj also was way more fluid and coordinated. His body control was insane. Brons not on Mj's level in that aspect but he's still elite and again its the size and strength combined with the body control and fluidity that makes it a tough call.

    I honestly dont know. This one could be a coin flip.

    LeBron is the greatest athlete in history. So it's the lion.

    In real life lions are 4x bigger than a black panther and they're also faster. The lion is the 2nd fastest wild cat in the world after the cheetah.

    LeBron isn't the greatest athlete in history, and neither is MJ to be honest. Wilt trumps the both of them. But in general, MJ was more athletic. LeBron beats him in strength but MJ had the better speed, vertical, quickness, first step, and hang-time.

    Lions are the only cats to hunt in packs because they lack the athleticism to hunt alone. black panther or jaguar or whatever is way more athletic.

    Lebron is a hybrid lion/leopard, which uses it's tail to climb trees and balance mid-air


    This extra limb helps Leboa stay injury free and landing awkwardly


    Greatest athlete in sports history. 17 years and flourishing


    Edit: 18 years

    LeBron is like a hippopotamus, with the agility, speed and athleticism of a lion and leopard and bloodthirst of a great white.

    No, LeBron is legit the greatest athlete in history.

    MJ was slower and weaker than LeBron so clearly he was an inferior athlete.



    Steve Kerr:

    "LeBron is probably the best athlete to ever walk this planet."

    Bill Simmons:

    "LeBron is the greatest natural athlete in NBA history."

    Dolph Schayes:

    "He's the most gifted athlete in the history of athletes."

    Jon Barry:

    "I think LeBron is the greatest athlete this league has ever seen."

    Shane Battier:

    "There's never been an athlete like him."

    Charles Oakley:

    "LeBron is a better athlete, and he can do more than Michael on the basketball court."

    Kendrick Perkins:

    "Bron is the greatest athlete of all time."

    Stephen Jackson:

    "I think he's the greatest athlete of all time."

    Doc Rivers:

    “I really believe if LeBron James had to play football, he may have been the greatest football player ever.”



    Here's where critics are missing the boat: LeBron really is as special as all of these people are saying. None of it is hyperbole.

    But he wasn't slower. He was quicker, with the quicker first step, and he was faster. MJ came into the league with a 4.3. LeBron's best on record is a 4.6.

    MJ had a better vertical and far greater hang-time. The only thing LeBron has is physical strength, which I would sure hope he has given that he's 6'8" 250-260lbs for his career.

    Stop lying to yourself.

    Lebron is more of a house cat because he always whines.

    MJ is like a tiger, with fierceness like a bull (see what i did there), uncanny like a wolf, and with venom like Cobra. ������
