LeBron would destroy 1990's according to JJ Reddick

[3ba11]

So Pippen was a Lebron level player? Damn...such help.

1. Pippen
2. Lebron

Top 2 overrated players ever

Pippen is overrated by possibly 100 spots, while Lebron is overrated by at least 5.. but his perceived ranking is so high (2) that 5-10 spots is a ton

[Lebron23]

Horrible 1990's defenses

[Baller789]

Horrible 1990's defenses

Yes. With Lebron facing the great modern defences, surely you could make a 30 sec. clip of Lebron doing chest to chest dunks over NBA centers?

NIce cherrypicks. I'll give you F for effort

Top 3 for MVP is a Blake Griffin or Pippen peak... lol

So yeah.. sounds about right.

No scoring title though because his at-rim (bread-and-butter) would be reduced due to packed paints and teammates not spacing the floor for him.. and hard fouls.. and physicality on perimeter (hand-checking and impeding)

Bron WOULD DESTROY the 90's!! Only thing is he would run into peak MJ and the start of peak Shaq. I would take MJ over Bron peak-prime wise. And Shaq at his peak was the most physically dominant player in league history. So it's NO LOCK Bron would be the best player in the league in the 90's. BUT he would be in the top 2-3 and absolutely dominate!

[Real Men Wear Green]

They should lock all the opposing stans in a small room with a many sharp objects as possible.

If you claim the only defender Jordan ever faced is Muggsy you're full of shit. If you claim Lebron James would be less dominant in an era that deemphasized long range shooting and emphasized physicality then you are full of shit. And in either case you ceased being funny 10 years ago if you ever were. Big athletic wing defenders weren't invented in 2003 and James is the biggest strongest small forward of all time. Accept it and move on.

The case for Lebron over Jordan really is just based on Lebron being successful in any era where Jordan would have only been a great during this window of time in the 1990s. Jordan was able to be successful during a small window of time when teams were only paying for 1 maybe 2 stars and Pippen's bad contract allowed the Bulls to overpay for role players. Jordan wouldn't have been successful facing super teams because well...we saw what he did against The Celtics and Pistons. What would he have done if a Patrick Ewing, Reggie Miller, and Gary Payton decided to form a super team.

Your analysis is devoid of analysis. You don't talk about anything Jordan couldn't have done in terms of skill as a basketball player and instead act like he couldn't have been "successful" in any other era because of the collusion taking place in the modern day. Aside from personal pride which may well have stopped him why wouldn't Jordan have been able to collude like James? And by your stupid logic would the lack of collusion in Jordan's era mean that James wouldn't have been "successful?"

[hold this L]

Lebron fresh out of high school (age) 20 was putting up prime Kobe scoring numbers with no spacing and no movement, with 7apg which Jordan (or kobe) NEVER achieved in 15 seasons

MJ at the same age was a 3rd option in college

Averaged 8 assists in 89' while grabbing 33PPG, which Lebron never achieved.

Well we know Jordan couldn't win in time periods where talent was centralized and that he was only able to win when the talent spread out. Wilt Chamberlain who I tend to respect as an analyst said it best...he's sub 200 lbs who could play on the exterior but he would have been crushed in the interior.



Jordan played in 3 decades and was only successful in a small 8 year period of time. I'm not sure why thats controversial for you unless you are just a Jordan fanboy. Lebron in my opinion did more with less and he had to play against better teams.

This is the stupid shit being posted. Is Ja Morant heavier than Jordan? Don't try to analyze the actual game as you clearly can't. You are just regurgitating crap Chamberlain said because he didn't like the fact that people were saying Jordan was the greatest ever. I can understand him defending his pride it's your mindless devotion to another man that doesn't make any sense. Jordan was completely unstoppable until he got old. That's a fact unlike the stupid crap you continue to post.
