    LeBron is a better athlete than Ronaldo. Ronaldo is not even the best player in his own sport. Messi is the greatest soccer player currently and he will retire as the greatest ever.
    ever heard of MARADONA!?????

    I dislike both of them. But I think it would is easier to stop Ronaldo 1 on 1 than LeBron. They are both fast but LeBron is more overpowering

    The same guy who was sent home from a World Cup for taking ephedrine?

    Yes, I have heard of him.

    Messi will be the GREATEST SOCCER PLAYER/FOOTBALLER OF ALL TIME.

    For my age group it's a simple choice between Pele or Maradona for GOAT.

    Doubt anyone will come along to ever change that.

    Hopefully Ronaldo misses the match vs USA. Anyways he's the obvious answer here. Dude plays every LA Liga game and all the other tournaments and international games throughout the year and does it for 90+ minutes outside and dominates everyone. How could it even be argued? NBA talent level isn't that great anymore either.

    Soccer players are great athletes no doubt. But if your comparing just raw athletic ability between soccer and basketball, it's not close. You have to be athletic in every area to be an elite level basketball player like Lebron James. You must have top level endurance as well as being lightning quick. You must have upper and lower body strength to deal with the contact inside. You have to have exceptional hand eye coordination to be able to catch, pass, dribble and shoot. It takes more athletic ability to actually catch a ball and dribble than just redirecting it and kicking in front of you like in soccer. Now I'm not saying it's easy to control passes in soccer, because it's not....I'm just saying you have to be much more accurate to shoot a ball in a tiny cylinder compared to a huge soccer net. If you took a person who has never played either sport ever in their life, they would pick up soccer much much quicker than they would basketball. They would not be able to dribble and no way would they be able to shoot accurately. I would bet anything a complete amateur can kick a soccer ball through cones and score a goal way quicker then they could dribble a basketball through cones and make a jump shot. You have to be laterally quick as well as st8 line quick in basketball. Soccer is pretty much st8 forward and diagonals. In basketball you must play defense laterally. Jumping ability is also much more important in basketball than soccer. If the United States had all our greatest athletes play soccer their entire lives, the US soccer team would look a lot more like the backcourt of an nba team than what they look like now. Period.

    Ronaldo. If Lebrun had to run 10 miles for the length of a soccer field without air conditioning he would cramp before half time.

    It's funny watching people's silly emotions get in the way of simple logic.

    There is absolutely nothing special or unique about ronaldo.


    Now say that about lebron and feel how stupid it sounds.

    And I'll bet you whatever you want that Ronaldo couldn't play NCAA basketball, much less in the NBA. Ronaldo is a tremendous player, and it's been established he's a good athlete, but enough of this nonsense he could play in the NBA. It's f*kn' ridiculous, and anybody with a lick of sense knows better.

    You don't "train" for basketball, especially at that level. You either have it, or you don't. Bench warmers in the NBA would own Ronaldo on the court, you're fooling yourself if you think otherwise. You have no clue what you're spouting, just another teenager talking out his ass.

    They profiled Ronaldo on sports science. Broke down his film and estimated his vertical at 30 or 31 inches. That's athletic, but pedestrian by NBA standards. For a guy his size (very small by NBA standards), it's not that good.

    Ronaldo is very good at what he does, but is nowhere near as athletic as Lebron. Even though he is much much smaller and weaker than Lebron, he can't jump as high and runs similar speed to maybe slightly faster. What else do you need to know?
