He did not play against the same type of athletic, lengthy defenders Bron did. Dude was a Magic/MJ hybrid, straight out the gate! If you put Bron in MJ’s era we would be viewing him the same, or better as we do MJ now. And he would have way more championships, way more points, assists, rebounds. I could go on. .

    Lebron's scoring averaged peaked this season, 31 PPG. I think most people forget this season, but this is where he turned the corner as a scorer, and obviously his alien athleticism. His jumper was still streaky, but nonetheless one of his more forgotten amazing seasons. Feel like his off the dribble game took a leap in 06.

      @dreamchaser1419 no amount of eye test makes someone who shoots 33% from out there a good shooter. at the end of the day, it was the weak spot in his game. you'd much rather allow him to take a shot that generally has a 33% chance of going in than giving the dude a lane to the basket.
      even just look at his mechanics and compare them to his current day jumpshot. dude's a 40% shooter now and you can see why. doesn't hang in the air anymore, shoots the ball on the way up instead of on the way down, elbow is in tighter albeit still being out a bit, all of that resulting in better shooting.

    One great thing about social media, we get to see legendary players at their best. Unless you lived in Cleveland, you did not have the opportunity to see these games. They were mostly local broadcast with a few regional games sprinkled in. I’m seeing a lot of these games or highlights, for the very first time. Damn, LeBron was a BEAST! The NBA Finals used to be broadcast on tape delay, hours after the game was played. It’s still hard to believe! Thank you UA-cam and those who provide the content. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

    People don't remember this young LeBron. This was during the peak prime years of a 27 year old Kobe. A 21 year old LeBron in his 3rd NBA szn was legit argued as the best player in the league fighting Kobe for that spot... A peak Kobe... Kobe was avg 35/5/4 on a very mediocre team finishing 4th in MVP voting carrying his team to 45 wins and ended up losing in the 1st round of the playoffs in 7 to a 54 win Suns team. Outstanding szn. And he avg. 28/6/5 in the playoffs. Then you have LeBron who again is only in only his 3rd szn avg. 31/7/6 on a very mediocre team and finished 2nd in MVP voting (ahead of Kobe) and carrying his team to 50 wins. He ended up losing in the 2nd round of the playoffs in 7 to a 64 win Pistons team. In the playoffs (his very first playoffs btw) he avg. 31/8/6. So let that sink in. In LeBron's 3rd year as a 21 year old, he was neck and neck with a 27 year old prime Kobe in the regulars szn carrying his team which was just as bad as Kobe's to more regular szn wins and being ahead of Kobe in MVP voting. On top of individually outperforming Kobe in the playoffs. I love Kobe, he's in my top 5 but LeBron has been different.
