Is LeBron a top 10 player all-time?

[Cleverness]

He's top 5 since 2000

1. Shaq
2. Kobe
3. Duncan
4. Curry
5. LeBron
6. Dirk
7. Durant
8. Garnett
9. Wade
10. Nash

I can see the argument for Dirk > LeBron since Dirk crushed him in 2011 (even with Wade and Bosh healthy), but LeBron came back with a solid lockout season and an MVP performance the following year, which gives him the slight edge over Dirk.

[And1AllDay]

Arguable Top 1
Consensus Top 2
Cemented Top 3


It is what it is, just facts

Big IQ

[RealSkipBayless]

MJ
KAJ
Russell
Magic
Bird
Wilt
Kobe
Duncan
Lebron
Shaq

Fringe top 10. In danger of being knocked out by Durant and Dingo.

good point about dirk.

What top 10 player doesn't have one legit title?

What top 10 player bounced around a putrid conference forming super teams in their prime?

There's your answer.

[Gileraracer]

We already proved that he would, with a chance of 66%. be ringless in the west. So no top 10

[tanibanana]

Currently 3rd, will retire as 2nd..

[3ball]

Lebron only beat the west 3 times (3/9) - so he would only make the Finals 3 times if he was in the West for his career like Dirk was

Dirk > Lebron because he beat him heads up in 2011

The only difference is that Dirk didn't team up with Wade/Bosh and play in a shit conference

Dirk would've been 4/4 with Wade/Bosh

[PickernRoller]

Poll's a tie more or less. Minds are changing - nice to see. Time is on our side.

Lol at forum b1tch using all his alts to vote.

He's Top 15 for me, with Curry on his heels.

[Walk on Water]

Lebron is not a top 10 in the NBA NOW

[Gileraracer]

He's a solid top 20 thanks to the Eastern Conference.


Would be around top 50 had he played in the west (1 finals appearance, zero rings)

[Wally450]

Some of the responses in this thread man.

[TheMan]

Of course he's in the top 10

He's 5th currently in my list

[paksat]

somewhere in the late 20s

[ArbitraryWater]

Yes, but I rank him somewhere around 5th or 6th all time.

unexpected

even the worst of haters have him top 5

Of course he's in the top 10

He's 5th currently in my list
