    Default LeBron would also dominate in the 1980's and 1990's

    He is LeBron. I don't see those skinny small forwards shutting him down

    Lebron (Like Giannis) has no actual finesse ball skills. He was rewarded by God with a brick body and is allowed to travel and push-off with the forearm in 99% of his career drives.

    You would probably smoke prime Lebron on any random Filipino ball court

    Michael Derozen would be remembered in a similar way that Drexler is if LeBron was around back then. Nike and NBA wouldn't promote a degenerate weirdo like MJ so heavily and LeBron would have at least 7 rings in the 90s. There would be no "the shot". Craig Ehlo would be replaced by LeBron James. Let's be real here.

    LeShrivel wouldn't have been able to handle the '80s and '90s. If Devin Booker, Jamal Murray, and Jason Terry broke him, just think what the bad boy Pistons would have done.

    He wouldn't need to be shackled to someone useful like scottie pippen just to make it past the first round as well.

    Just think, Lebron had two HOFers in AD and Westbrook, and his fluffers were literally in tears begging for him to get more help.

    With Stockton/Malone/Horny? Assuming Sloan didn't get in the way they would have been the team to beat for sure

    We are talking about the player who has accomplished the least with the most help though...

    Very good possibility he'd lead the super team Jazz to the lottery.

    First time we’ve heard this sentiment from the OP. Surprising thread.

    Corrected, Young Lebron was blowing by guys on the perimeter with a basic standing dribble. Prime Lebron was leveraging that ability into a whole offensive system. He'd be fine in any era just like Mike would be....except maybe the 60s they'd be called for carrying/traveling constantly lol.
