LeBron Is The Best Player In The Game.

[Magic bird]

Lebron barely escaped the Lakers. Durant already destroyed them twice this year.



I'm not saying Durant is better. I'm just saying this game really didn't prove anything.

Agreed

Lebron has this look in his eye now, that I've never seen before.
it's the quiet confidence of an assassin.
it's like he finally realized, "well shit, I am a badass." and we're all like
"that's what we've been trying to tell you all along, Lebron!"

Prior to the last three seasons, it was always "if only he would do this... if only he would work on this... if only he would realize how dominant he could be"

and now, he has reached that place, the place many of us doubted he would ever reach.

it's something to behold, like a tiny seed finally becoming a great Oak.
and what an Oak it is.

non-sports fans ask me why I love sports so much. I tell them, "because I enjoy watching human greatness." Lebron James is human greatness.

With all the talent in the world, he has overcome all the pressure in the world. And the end result is a basketball player the likes of which we have never seen, and will probably never see again.

Yeah I agree. I've never seen *that* look in his eyes, he's always been a great player, but there's something different now. Now he has *it*, I don't know even how to define it, it's one of those basketball things that goes beyond just the stat sheet or even the win loss column.

[boozehound]

this has been obvious for years

exactly. Kobe hasnt been in the conversation for at least 3 seasons. Lebron is clearly the best player in the nba

3 years...3 years....what does that remind me of...

If winning the chip makes you the best players for the entire year then the world would have different GOAT lists

[red1]

Even kobe fans will tell you that lbj was better in 09 and 10. Kobe just had MUCH better teammates and coaching

Being the best in the playoffs would not.

Heat 5-0 against your Thunder team. At least 4 of those proved something: Championship

He's a Spurs fan, dumbass.

LOL at lebron being better.. Kobe in his prime is better, and definitely durant right now. If lebron didnt join wade, he would be ringless with durant having one.

[YAWN]

This is why lebron is so good. No one can figure out how to keep him from making layups and dunks all game...

yeah the same with oscar being better than kobe. LOL lebron is nowhere kobe.

[entropy35]

Kd will surpass Lebron, when Lebron finally starts to decline (old age). I don't see KD reaching Lebrons level.
