lebron is the most overrated player in the nba

[Wind gara]

lebron played with boozer one year are you ****ing retarded. are you thinking of gooden? god i hate all of you people

if that was toward me then you need to stop talking and learn to read.
i said boozer was his best player (translation: boozer was good cause of james so aka he didnt have anyone 1/2 good)

[jsmithj88]

You're officially dumber than I thought. The Cavs made the Finals in 2007. Lebron carried worthless role players such as Larry Hughes, Sasha Pavlovic, and Drew Gooden as STARTERS into the Finals. Also, the top of the East may be stronger than the West right now, so I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. One day you'll learn about basketball, but until then you'll remain an imbecile in the minds of most.

he said that a bunch of times, but i didnt wanna correct him
idiots will eventually make idiots of themselves

Le Bron is gifted and an overall beast. I concur. However....once again, I'd rather take Kobe in the clutch over LeBron. LeBron a better team player than Kobe? For now....possibly yes. But it's just a different style LeBron plays than Kobe....doesn't make him any worse or better than Kobe. Kobe's role is to be the assassin, Lebron's is to distribute and get more teammates involved. It's almost like comparing Capitalism vs. Communism on the b-ball court....only this time discussing basketball style of plays.

Remember it was you guys who brought up that LeBron was the BEST IN THE NBA...I am just showing you clearly why that is not the case. I'd put him as #2 or #3. Kobe has put in MORE WORK and thus more accolades. He is the United States...LeBron is Communist Soviet Union.

We all know who won that war fellas

For better team player you say "for now...possibly yes". Are you joking? It's not even close. Forget assist totals (in which Lebron blows Kobe away), everyone loves playing with Lebron, whereas Kobe has had multiple fights with teammates.

What you are saying is Kobe is selfish and Lebron is not. I agree. One currently has their team atop the NBA standings, the other does not. This argument is stupid, this year Lebron has finally made it a clear decision.

[NYSportsGuy210]

No way dude....if I were starting a franchise from start with both Kobe and LeBron in their primes.....I am taking Kobe. You just can't teach what Kobe has in gifted ability.....Phil Jackson said it himself.

If you are starting a franchise you take Lebron. That's far less of a debate than who's a better player. You won't find a single coach (outside of Phil maybe) who disagrees. Lebron has more charisma, is a better teammate, better leader, and a more gifted physical specimen. That's not even a question.

[Pride>UFC]

lol at Lebron being overrated...wow, people can be really stupid

[jsmithj88]

u take lebron because he has proven that he will win with a shit team
while kobe needs talent around him to win
what did kobe win when they traded shaq and before he got gasol?
missed the playoffs and lost 2 playoff series to the suns

[PAULYPOKER]

King James is the best

This is where you are wrong. It's similar to someone taking Magic Johnson over Michael Jordan if they were both in their primes and you wanted to start a franchise from scratch.

92% at least would take Jordan. He just has that mentality to strive for greatness....not just big NIKE shoe deals.

[NYSportsGuy210]

Ha

I guarantee you LeBron is NOT gonna win with a sh*t team. Orlando proved that last year and it will be proven again this year. Once again your only argument for LeBron is that he puts up gawdy numbers more frequently than Kobe #24.....it's because he is the ONLY REAL talent on the Cavs.

Kobe can rely on other players to do the assists, rebounding and scoring for large periods of time thus his overall stats not as gawdy as LeBron's.

You must live in a different world than the rest of us. Kobe doesn't have the numbers because he doesn't pass and forces up a ton of shots. Lebron is gonna win the championship this year anyway and shut everyone up. Man, you have no appreciation for basketball.

[NYSportsGuy210]

And last time I checked....Tim Duncan, Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis all silenced LeBron James....while Kobe has "silenced" all of them. So yea....Kobe for the WIN

[Ace_of_Spades]

If Lebron James wins 6 titles, then we can discuss Jordan and Lebron in the same sentence, until then, don\t even think about comparing.

[ralphyG]

agreed

[NYSportsGuy210]

Actually you know limited knowledge about b-ballby your initial statement of how LBJ is the best player in NBA. Once again, a bold statement for a man who hasn't won anything yet.

If LeBron wins it this year with J.J. Hixon and an old Shaq at the healm....I will be the first to congratulate him. But it just probably won't happen. Once again, Kobe can let Gasol, Bynum, Odom or even Ariza last year take over games for stretches....thus he didn't have to "pad" his stats like Queen James. So screw that argument for LeBron.

[NYSportsGuy210]

By "us"....you must mean Cleveland and all the 12 year old boys who never saw the Lakers dynasty or MJ even dribble a basketball before.

too late, lebron took a shit team to the finals so my point is proven
i never mention anything about stats, u did, dont put words in my mouth

"Kobe can rely on other players to do the assists, rebounding and scoring for large periods of time"

thanx for proving my point. kobe has better talent around him thats why he is winning titles.

[PRC]

Care to actually give reasons why or are you just being stupid again? He's the greatest player in the league and damn close to the greatest ever already.

bingo. There isn't even a question anymore who the best player in the league is.

[PRC]

If Lebron James wins 6 titles, then we can discuss Jordan and Lebron in the same sentence, until then, don\t even think about comparing.

why? Jordan had better teammates and a way better coach. How is that fair to compare at all?

[HighFive]

re-tard for even posting this garbage

[jsmithj88]

because there are too many idiots on this board

NOOOOO.....that is why his STATS aren't as prolific as Queen James. That was my point....and thanks for proving to me that you can't follow simple logic. Now go away.

Kobe wins titles because he is great more than anything else. Your type of hater is the one who uses faulty logic and loose opinions that would bring even Jordan down to being "lucky"....and it's a fact that MJ was G.O.A.T.

[NYSportsGuy210]

Yea it's Kobe you 12 year old retard.

there u go again, saying a bunch of stuff unrelated to anything i said
i can make an argument for kobe better than u can
ur just too stupid to bring up good points

[Durrrr]

Yea it's Kobe you 12 year old retard.

Woman during PMS itt.

[broananik]

Can't we all just get along?

[NYSportsGuy210]

Seriously I could see these same LBJ supporters coming on here during the late 80's and early 90's saying how Dominique Wilkins was the greatest player on the planet while Michael Jordan was doing his thing.

I mean cmon....can you get any more ignorant?

[HighFive]

Stephon Marbury for 2010 MVP!!

[NYSportsGuy210]

Stephon Marbury for 2010 MVP!!

Correction....I guess you can get more ignorant.

[zigomanisinsider]

lebron is overrated

[Grind House]

I nominate this as stupidest quote of the year.

You nominate it, and I give it the award.

[Grind House]

Gasol is FAR more skilled than anyone else is that list. Howard is a physical freak though. Too bad he has horrendous footwork.

Too bad he will keep denying your Stat Boy from getting to the Finals. Because a man is a stat filler you call him the best ever? I'll take Howard over Stat Boy anytime.

[williams22]

That's just stupid. You should called yourself Isiah Thomas or Mike Dunleavy after a move as bad as that.

By the way, Orlando doesn't stand a chance this year. Shaq gave Dwight fits and Hedo was the real problem anyways.

[warriorfan707]

I don't want to get along with someone who truly believes Gerald Wallace is better than Lebron James
