    But to say Lebron is beneath Shaq is just stupid, because we've yet to see Lebron's peak, we DON'T KNOW how much better Lebron will be.
    Wiggins > LeBron because we DON'T KNOW how much better he can be.

    That was Bran's peak. Player's don't magically get better in their 30s, especially those who rely on athleticism.

    It does when you are a 13 year old in love with Bran's game.

    Lets replace LeBron + Wade combined with a 27 year old Shaq

    C - Shaq
    PF - Bosh
    SF - Battier
    SG - Allen
    PG - Cole

    I think this lineup probably wins 2 titles anyway

    That's where most layman common fans are wrong about Lebron.

    To say that Lebron "relies on athleticism" is straight up ignorant and shows that you have never watched him play a full game. For every season in his career Lebron has improved his overall game. "rely on athleticism" NO.

    In about 2 years time I can see Lebron pulling out the dream shake every game to perfection and dominate like Hakeem.

    Sure.

    Put peak Shaq on ANY TEAM in NBA history and they contend easily. So does Lebron though...

    So if you put Shaq on last year's 76ers they would contend? For what exactly?

    Replace Jordan with Lebron in the late 80s and they dont even beat the cavs and lebron would need a hospital near by after any game with the pistons.

    Champion-fkin'-ship.

    No team will fail to make the finals with peak Shaq. I believe wholeheartedly the same is with peak Lebron.

    Yes you got me. I've never seen a full LeBron James game.

    In 2 years he's going to go from a mediocre post player to pulling off Hakeem shakes too.

    I can't wait.

    How about you explain how he could be replaced on any team and contend. You can say the same thing about Shaq. You put him on the MJ teams he wouldn't do much either. Just saying, I understand that you think they impact teams similarly. But in terms of peak Shaq, I would take him for a 3 year time period over LeBron in every era.

    Shaq lost with better teams than that multiple times.
