Who still has Lebron over Bird

[redrich2000]

This is the type of ish I'm talkin about

Sorry that was a typo, doesn't change the point though. Bird is in a tier LeBron hasn't reached. I'm not anti-LeBron, I think he get's a rough deal and is undeniably head and shoulders above anyone since Kobe and Duncan.

But the only logic that can compare him to Bird is if it's just on level of play, which is not how most people judge it.

Always had Bird above LeBron.

Bird would dominate in this touch-foul and floor-spacing era even more. Players like Bird, Jordan, Kobe, Wilt, and Kareem are perfectly tailored for domination in today's NBA.

Stats? LeBron by a mile

PER? LeBron

MVPs? LeBron

FMVP? Tied

Longevity? LeBron

Having the most stacked teams his entire career? Bird






This is a classic case of nostalgia by the older posters in this forum (half of them are senile for gods sake)



If you truly believe Bird is better than LeBron, you are by far the most idiotic fool on here

bad.

bird by a long shot. fundamentals, higher iq and balls. eat your heart out, lebron.

Surpass him in what, exactly? Games played?


.

He already has him beat there

Bird still. Lebron embarrassed the United States of America twice bringing home bronze medals in his prime.

Dumbest things you've ever heard on ISH thread.


Blaming LeBron for the 2004 Olympics is like blaming Toney Douglas for the Heat losing in 2014

[Braincells]

I've always liked Sue Bird.

Someone had Lebrony over Bird?

This. Nobody outside of Lestans have him over Larry the Legend.

[the mesiah]

In LESS games played , basically same # of seasons since 1 year he appeared in only 6 games in his "13" years in the L , still has more steals,total (off and def) rebounds ,blocks , more championships: better shooter, leader, tougher, smarter, actually made teammates better, played in a easily tougher era against multiple HOFers and GOAT's caliber teams in their primes ..I'll take that Larry guy,.

[Lebron23]

LeBron will eventually overtake Bird and this is coming from a huge Larry fan.

Two the three greatest SF's in NBA (and ABA) history...with Dr. J close behind.

BTW, I would take a peak Bird, and a career Lebron.

Unfortunately for Bird, injuries cut his career short.

[Kvnzhangyay]

Lebron will easily surpass Bird anybody who thinks otherwise is in Denial.

This, and most people that disagree with this obviously haven't watched full games of both players

[Asukal]

Bird any day and twice on a sunday.

Why would you choose a guy who gives FMVP's to players who guarded him? Heck, even his best sidekick(Wade) has more rings than he does.

If you've watched enough from both at their best, it's CLEAR to tell that Bird's better, if you know anything about basketball at least. Not by much but definitely better.

This. If Lebron hasn't surpassed Bird on the All-Time list by now, he never will.
