    LeBron won in 29 of the 50 states.

    Can someone tell me how this research was made? They said is based on “Geotagged Twitter Data” but what the **** is that?

    Caruso said he realized LeBron was the GOAT around 2009-10.

    Imagine thinking LeBron James is the greatest ever and then after that he goes to 8 consecutive finals and wins 4 titles and 4 Finals MVPs. In other words, the 8 consecutive finals and 4 titles have only been icing.

    That happened for a lot of people which is one reason why support for LeBron is so strong.

    Lebron isn't great because he's a destroyer of the best brand of basketball - organic chemistry - he replaced it with talent-based winning, aka best recruiter wins, no chemistry basketball

    So he isn't great and is infact a bad person.. a fraud in every way, starting with his manufactured basketball resume - he had 1 Finals run in a weak conference like Iverson, Dwight or Kidd) until the"decision"

    otherwise, he was completely embarrassed in 08', 09' and 10' - that's why he started colluding - it was to stop getting embarrassed..

    Then Dirk gave lebron karma by doing what lebron couldn't - win with a 1-star, organic team... so stop watching the lies on ESPN..

    Btw, lebron's inability to win organically is a skill deficit.. his ball-dominance imposes spot-up roles that stall young players, thereby requiring ready-made stars to win (team-hopping)

    Yes, Caruso has high basketball IQ.

    Players with high BBIQ notice one another immediately.

    He realized all the high lights don't amount to what LeBron actually does on the court.

    I was going to say the same thing. It's very high IQ of Caruso to have known that by 2010. Other people who were saying that at the time were also high IQ guys in Oscar Robertson and Larry Bird.

    If I was born in 94...then I would have literally missed all of that.

    Caruso's nostalgia would definitely be more around Kobe and very young Lebron.
    Same. Born in 90 and even growing up in Orlando with shaq penny hype we all knew MJ the man

    I was 100% convinced LeBron was the GOAT just from seeing 2009.

    I had not seen that before from any one in history.

    11 years later I am proven right.

    LeBron's lead in the G.O.A.T. race extends even further now:

    Jordan only had 3 playoff PER runs over 30 in entire career (minimum 2nd round)

    LeBron has 7 playoff PER runs over 30 in entire career.



    2018 LeBron PER > any of Jordan's playoff PER.

    32.2 > Any playoff PER Jordan.

    2009 playoffs 37.4 PER > Anything Jordan could have ever done statistically.


    LeBron's peak > Jordan's peak.
    LeBron's longevity > Jordan's longevity.
