Are there any other athletes that rivaled prime LeBron in sheer athleticism?

          Listen to the intro on this one.

          No way you get athletes to do this today.

          Too much pride in facing each other & risk being embarrassed.

          Too bad though.

          It would be great Pay Per View to see the world's best athletes compete against each other in various events.

                Michael "Air" Jordan had the highest vertical leap in history at the NBA combine tying Darrel "Dr. Dunkenstein" Griffith at 48 inches. Thats 4 feet people, insane.

                  This is dumb, everyone has their own situations built in a vacuum which is far from reality

                  In order to appreciate athletes of all time you must view those athletes with respect to their current environment

                  Sure athletes today are better athletes than 50 yrs ago and athletes 50 yrs from now will frown on the ones today

                  Given respective environments, it is easy to see that wilt chamberlain was far and away the best athlete of all time given he was equivalent to Rudy gobert playing against a league full of 5 foot 8 goofy white guys

                  Bo jackson and Jim brown have to be honorable mentions. Most likely missing a few names but wilt was it

                    Bo Jackson is 10X the athlete Lebron is. Not even close. “Lebron could’ve played in the NFL” LOL. Yeah, so could I. I simply chose not too.

                    As a reserve tight end on the Notre Dame practice squad for 2 years, I can assure you I have much more of a clue than you clowns.

                    A good little clip that shows just how quick LeBron is for his size, you are a nutball if u think he wouldn't be able to make the NFL.

                            Wow Opie that is phenomeballs, but I will have to call you on the sbr's best athlete as that would be the equivalent to a special Olympics bronze medal.
                            I am about a decade your junior in age, back in my younger years I could really fly but I have payed the price as a result of all those ups. Torn acl/mcl and shredded the miniscus on my other knee obviously had my share of broken ankles and other stuff but only the knee damage has truly slowed me down. I can still dunk regulation as well but only off 1 foot now and I basically look like a white jameer nelson

                                          Wilt Chamberlain wasn't mentioned yet? Guy was a track star as well as the most dominant b-ball player of his era.
