    I just said this. Glad I'm not the only one that can see past AJ's bullshit. Everytime these stat nerds come on here trying to argue Lebron over Jordan they leave empty handed with nothing to show for it.

    Lebron lowered the APG (playmaking) of every key teammate, and increased their assisted rate (play-finishing):



    [COLOR="White"]................................................[/COLOR]APG, ASSIST %[COLOR="White"]......[/COLOR] ASSISTED RATE

    Wade [COLOR="Navy"]before[/COLOR] Lebron (04'-10'):[COLOR="White"].....[/COLOR] 6.6, 34.8%[COLOR="White"]..................[/COLOR]29.2% [COLOR="DarkGreen"]<---- links to nba.com data[/COLOR]

    So his teams always rank low in APG:


    Cavs 2004:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 8th
    Cavs 2005:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 6th
    Cavs 2006:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 24th
    Cavs 2007:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 15th
    Cavs 2008:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 25th
    Cavs 2009:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 20th
    Cavs 2010:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 6th
    Heat 2011:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 26th
    Heat 2012:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 21st
    Heat 2013:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 7th
    Heat 2014:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 11th
    Cavs 2015:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 10th
    Cavs 2016:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 13th
    ___________________________
    [COLOR="red"]14.8 average rank for Lebron's teams[/COLOR]




    CONCLUSION: [COLOR="DarkGreen"]By reducing his team's APG and teamwork, Lebron needs excessive supporting talent to win (aka team-hopping)..[/COLOR]

    And by reducing his team's APG and teamwork, he invariably loses to teams with SUPERIOR teamwork (see 2011 Mavs and 2014 Spurs, who won via superior teamwork, not talent)

    I was asked whether I could "get the step" on Lebron.. Of course I could.. Non-NBA players are capable of getting the step on NBA players.. It isn't rocket science or amazing or anything - it's called basketball.. You should pick one up sometime..

    I used to blow by Raja Bell on sheer athleticism (no handle).. Now that I've acquired an elite handle capable of virtually any move you see done by NBA point guards (and more, including the behind-the-back, gather-step shown in the previous gif), you're goddamm right I can get the step on Lebron.
    Yeah, ok, 0ball. You've obviously never stepped away from a computer in your life and you've obviously never touched a basketball either. Keep living that delusional life though. If that really is you in the gif.... wow! Just wow! Anyone that garbage should never be allowed to touch a basketball in the first place.

    I'll just leave this here:

    Jordan marginalized his teammates and ALWAYS reduced their PPG, APG, and RPG. Players put up better numbers WITHOUT Jordan than they did WITH him. Case in point:

    Horace Grant from '88-93 - 12/8
    Horace Grant in 1994 - 15/11

    Toni Kukoc from '96-'98 - 13/4/4
    Toni Kukoc in 1999 - 19/7/5

    BJ from '90-'93 - 9/3
    BJ in 1994 - 15/4

    Harper from '87-'94 - 19/5/5
    Harper with Jordan - 8/3/3
    Harper in '99 - 11/5/3

    I'll add one more of Jordan's teammates:

    Scottie Pippen from '88-'93 - 16/7/5
    Scottie Pippen from '94-'95 - 22/8/5

    FACT: MJ reduced his teammates' PPG, RPG, and APG.

    If Raja Bell, Richard Jefferson, Anthony Parker, John Salmons, Luke Walton, Richard Jefferson, and Zach Randolph couldn't hold me on the post, what are you going to do?

    I remember Richard Jefferson was trying to guard me on the post and I was dropping him off, before his boy Walton had to tell him to step up his game.. Then I saw Jordan drop Jefferson for 40 at 40, and honestly, my experience with Rich took a little shine of Jordan's performance.. real talk... same thing when Kobe used to drop off Raj.. I was like, yeah, that's nothing, really.. tbh, kobe had to work harder to score on the post vs Raj than i did/would.. i can meet you in la or vegas.. or next time i'm in fl
    Oh Andrew
