Who do you think is the most athletic player in the history of the NBA?

[AlonzoGOAT]

if evryone is saying Lebron because he is strong , fast and can jump high instead of just jumping then look at Blake griffin.. He is stronger , jumps higher , fast (but slower than lebron).

BG is stronger then lebron based on? And add stamina and durability to LeBron

[NastyCrossover1]

Jordan because he was dunking on heads like no other.

LeBron James is a better athlete then MJ. He's much stronger, taller, has a 50- 60 pound weight advantage, yet his end to end speed is better, his balance and coordination is on par with some starting wide recievers in the NFL, and although he doesn't jump as high as MJ, he's pretty close IMO. MJ has the better body control, slightly better leaper, has bigger hands and is much more agile. But he doesn't have the combination of size, strength, and speed as LeBron. LeBron is not only a world class athlete in the NBA, but he would be a world class athlete in the NFL as stated by many NFL personnel.

Dunno, I think Jordan would have made a pretty sick wide receiver if he had ever really tried to play football.

If thats your basis. Dominique dunked on just about as many, if not more. Same goes for Shawn Kemp. All prime shaq did was dunk ugly on big guys. Amare pre microfracture had ridiculous athleticism.

"The Dream"

It seriously took 100 posts before someone mentioned Olajuwon?? Embarrassing. They've probably got his photo next to the word "athletic" in Websters Dictionary.

Even if this were true, how is a Wilt who could probably touch the top of the backboard; who was widely rumored to have benched somewhere in the vicinity of 500 lbs; who, at age 27, and at 290 lbs, was clocked at a 4.6 40 (and who, himself claimed that he ran a 4.4 in college); and who had a LEGITIMATE offer to play professional football; and who had TWO LEGITIMATE offers to fight for the World Heavyweight Boxing title;...NOT be considered among the greatest athletes in all of sports history?

Wilt = Poor Man's Javale Mcgee

Wilt = Poor Man's Javale Mcgee

I have said it before, but you could probably pull Wilt's corpse from the hole, prop him up under the basket, and McGee would probably not score a point against him...

[get these NETS]

dream was a better player.....Wilt is an icon..but David Robinson is without question the most athletic 5 ever
