I have read through most, if not all, of the LeBron-related posts tonight - and this (IMO) is the most sensible and spot on. Well said...

Personally I DON'T have Lebron ahead of Kobe.

But you can't say that because Kobe has 5 and Lebron has 1 that automatically makes him better.

Wade has 2 championships, but he's clearly not better than Lebron!

Qwasian · 06-22-2012, 06:16 AM

The Reason Lebron Is Better Than Kobe Is Because All Of His Career Stats Are Higher Than Kobe's. and when kobe came in the league he wasn't dominant right away, kobe didn't average over 20 points a game until after his 3rd season in the NBA,

lebrons first 3 year point averages were 20, 27 31
kobe's first 3 year point averages were 7, 15, 19

lebron is the more dominant player and will prove that as time goes on, if they win multiple championships nobody will be able to deny that fact.

rojallad · 06-22-2012, 06:33 AM

From the the standpoint of pure basketball talent, and stats I'd put him in the top 25. As an all around athlete/ human being .....let's see I'm trying to think of the biggest douche athletes of all time..... Right in between Milton Bradley and Terrel Owens.

jlzinck · 06-22-2012, 06:38 AM

He today ranks where he ranked yesterday.
Barlkey, Malone & Stockton are not thought of any less because they did not win a championship.

And if you want to factor in championships Bill Russell has to be #1.

You children like to call people who don't like James' attitude "haters"

Mr Russell, the greatest champion in sports history, had more REAL hatred spewed his way in 1 day than you James has had in his entire pampered life.

bas · 06-22-2012, 06:59 AM

Ok yes kobe has more rings so does horry, lebron is a better player then prime kobe

I like LeBron, but there are players who came before him that have a full proven career. And I still have 10+ players above him.

If you weren't paying attention to the hundred threads, I was rooting for the Heat, so before I get pushed on the LeBron "hater" bandwagon, slow your roll.

These discussions are stupid to begin with. Let LBJ finish his career and then we can talk.

arnold84 · 06-22-2012, 07:57 AM

wow some you guys need a reality check, ill honestly put Lebron between 15-20 but he has a shot at the top guys on the list but will def take a few more titles thats for sure.

Sniped · 06-22-2012, 08:27 AM

Top 15 for now, can deff see him in top 10 after he racks up a few more awards and makes his way up the scoring list...still hate him though lol

Sniped · 06-22-2012, 08:36 AM

Oh and for all the people saying lebron is lower than kobe in ranking, absurd! I got kobe at #7 all time right now and hes still top 3 in the nba right now so he might crack my top 5 all time.

How can you even consider to put LeBron on this list without Duncan's name?

- 4 Rings
- 3 NBA Finals MVP
- 2 MVP
- 8 NBA 1st team All Defensive
- 9 NBA 1st team All NBA
- 13 allstar games
- Has never missed playoffs(Didnt play in the 1999-2000 playoffs because of knee injury, and they would of won back-to-back

)

Please don't forget the games BEST before you put up "KING" James.

#50 Lebron

lebron freeloaded his way to a ring... he will never be mentioned in the same breath as Jordan who earned his and stuck with his team like a real man thru the good and the bad....

TamakwaCards · 06-22-2012, 09:01 AM

For me, lebron isn't even in my top 50. lebron has a championship and he is a great player, he isn't even better than paul pierce! paul pierce is a great ALL TIME player, he has more championships then lebron, and he had better character! when lebron retires he might be number 2 or not even in the top 50. the list says ALL TIME GREATS! look how i made ALL TIME big. It doesn't say ALL NOT GREATS, it say ALL TIME!

CASE CLOSED

What? Worthy Isaih Shaq Pippen and Duncan ahead of Hakeem and MAGIC? Shaq and duncan can at least be argued as better than Olajuwon, but MAGIC? He is at least the 3rd best player of all time.

1eyed_jack · 06-22-2012, 09:56 AM

I mean, if Malone and Payton would have won a ring with the Lakers that year, would their rankings have jumped way up even though they went fishing for a title? Same thing with LeBron.
