I think it's 8.8 ast per game, but still...

He's not a Top 5 All-Time Talent if he can't make perimeter shots and make his FTs consistently

Gimme Jordan, Kareem, Magic, Bird, Kobe, and Hakeem over this dude.

Guy shot pretty well from 3 last few seasons and was very good in the midrange those few years in mia and even this year. Post season has been bad because all the looks are mostly contested looks, not in rthym, or he looks spent from having to do everything(something nobody, except Mj, could even attempt to do consistently).

In mia's offense, which had other playmakers in wade and bosh, lebron got easier shots. Look for the same to probably happen next season when kyrie and love(if he stays) play together.

Yeah he was statistically fantastic as a spot-up shooter his last two years in Miami. Never that good off the dribble.

How But Bird in the 1986 Finals (age 29 Peak):

24.0 PPG (48.2% FG on 18.3 FGAs PG) 9.7 RPG, 9.5 APG, 2.7 SPG & 2.7 TOVs PG

Is Lebron close to this?

What are you saying?

[Round Mound]

What are you saying?

And only 2.7 TOVs PG.

Im saying (a question)...is that as good as Bird`s Triple Double Finals?

What was Bird's supporting cast like?

leebran is only average 3 tov this series not that big of a difference

Personally, I think so. If I recall, Mchale played amazing that series vs Houston

Arguable though. It's always hard to compare performances with good supporting casts vs performances with bad ones

Too many intangibles, such as Bird being less of a focal point for the defense (not by much though), and the fact that Lebron HAS to put up bad shots because he doesn't have the GOAT team around him.

Who knows though, Bird very well may average the same thing as Lebron with higher efficiency given the same conditions. But then again, maybe not. This is just an example of why I hate comparing.

As crazy as it may sound, I think this is Lebron's best finals performance ever

[nzahir]

Yeah he was statistically fantastic as a spot-up shooter his last two years in Miami. Never that good off the dribble.

He hits some crazy shots sometimes, like tonights 3 at the 4th with a hand in his face, couple times actually.
But ya he is better when spotting up or catching in transition. But he has to do all their playmaking rn, and scoring, o ya and defending, and rebounding. So its not possible to do everything and be this efficient

Lebron is spent at the end of every game because he exerts so much energy trying to force his way in the paint and trying to overpower his defenders. He's all power and no finesse.

I'd take all the guys I listed because I'm confident they could play the same minutes as Lebron is now with the same usage percentage and not be spent to the point where they're a liability on defense and is shooting sub 40%.

Hows that "Makes his teammates better" coming along? Those stats don't mean squat if hes not winning or making his teammates better. Well, at least thats what we were told for the past 14 years.

[Round Mound]

Larry had a better cast but also he faced better competition than Lebron has in his life. Im not saying Lebron is not close to Bird he is but also lets examine the level Bird had in his peak too:
