We've been saying this all along. Lebron is great but he doesn't inspire anyone to play like him.
Based on NBA.com statistics, every star perimeter player has a shot allocation of mostly jumpers, except Lebron
He's the only guy that can't take those ad-hoc, off-the-cuff jumpers or live off them - he's the only guy that lacks expert jumpshooting skill, while guys like SGA, Luka, Tatum or old players like Kobe or MJ can live off their jumpshot .. These guys have superior jumpshooting and better repertoire off-the-dribble.
Btw, jumpshooters get hot and make defenders think "what...... must..... I...... do"..... Defenders are also scared because they can blame rim attacks on the help D, but a hot jumpshooter requires double teaming (coach drawing up double team is an EMASCULATION of a defender that they fear)..

Depends what you mean by playing like him. I'm sure there's tons of kids who idolize him and want to be like him, but I doubt there are many that aspiring basketball players (HS and college level) that actually try to emulate his style of play.

What is his style? Attack the basket shoot threes hit the open man. He thinks like a point guard while being Karl Malone from the waist up and Vince Carter from the waist down. Basic guard skill set. Being a 6'8 270 pound monster is something almost no player can emulate which is part of Alexander's point. The only guys that have a body kind of like James are Williamson and Banchero and Banchero doesn't have the athleticism. Even a future star at 15 is going to be 6'5 and 190.

That's... not true at all.

Don’t forget crab dribbling, traveling, flopping, forming superteams and crying to the refs. Gee I wonder why NBA players don’t like LeBron

And he wants to destroy him head to head again.
