lol - true, but I mean go to the next level, be the finisher, prime, he's going to win it all this year.

 

I'd still let him shoot from 3 point range all day before I let him get around me and go to the hole.

When Lebron decides to start using a post game, that's when he's gonna win it all. IMO, that's the only thing he lacks.

Lebron is the best player in the league. That's not up for debate anymore, IMO. But how good is Kevin Durant? It was obvious at Texas he was gonna be a stud. But I didn't think he would be THIS cold THIS quick. He arguably has the most complete offensive arsenal in the league. It would've been nice to have won the lottery in 2007 instead of 2008. Of course, we probably take Oden. Which couldn't have really been debated at the time.

Durant's terrible defensively though.

 

He works on that, he'll be mentioned in the same bracket as Kobe and Lebron IMO.

 

True. But I don't remember many people raving about Lebron's D in year 3. Kobe's always been an overrated defender. But point taken. But I'm not sure there's a more gifted offensive player in the league.

Jesus it's nice to watch Rose play night in and night out. What a game he had (Deng, Noah, etc.. were solid too). And even though I hate Kirk Hinrich, I gotta admit he was very good defensively against Nash tonight. Total team win, though I have to imagine they will be tired tomorrow against Houston. Rose played what 43 minutes?

Nah I'm also gonna say Lebron is the best player in the league. On top of that I'd say if we're talking best offensive players, you've gotta throw Carmelo into the discussion IMO.

Stats are obviously not everything. But Lebron puts Kobe to shame in just about every statistical category (standard and advanced) that there is. That just can't be overlooked, IMO. Yeah, Kobe's been around longer and he's got the four rings. But there really is no legitimate argument one can make for Kobe currently being a better player than Lebron.

...except Championships. LBJ needs to show me more of a killer instinct.

I was agreeing with you on Lebron being the best player in the league actually. I just had this debate with a couple of friends who are Lakers friends just 2 nights ago.

That Posterization by D Rose was the best I ever seen

It was nice, but I wouldn't say it was that great. I've seen Rose do better.

More-so the killer instinct definitely. Kobe is just an assassin. LeBron most of the time would rather look for the open man than take the last shot himself (though he's been alittle better at taking them the last couple years than prior) not to mention he (Kobe) is much more professional with is why I respect him more. (doesn't show up anyone other than his game/30 points a night) Kobe is the closest thing to MJ that any of us will ever see and probably ever will. LeBron is a modern day Magic Johnson 2.0 (course bigger and stronger)

No kidding. The one he had in high school (Simeon) against my high school (Washington) when he gave that one dude (forgot his name) a facial from the CPS championship was still crazy (I'm not even counting that dunk against that white dude on his mixtape on youtube which was just ungodly) I would say however that was the best pro dunk facial he's had so far.
