Serious Question: What exactly does Lebron do BETTER right now than Penny Hardaway did offensively?

[DoubleClutch]

He just kept getting better and better. I won't let this argument about him being better than Bron ruin my love for his game and evolution as a player.

I like the little back track you're making.

You see how dumb it is to criticize Penny now, don't you?
But you STILL think this thread is about Penny being better than Lebron, huh?

Admitting Curry being possibly the greatest shooter of all time doesn't take away from miller or Ray Allen.

Saying Penny was similar to lebron doesn't make Lebron any less of a player.

Saying Penny was more skilled than Lebron in some areas doesn't mean Lebron isn't skilled or better than Penny in other ways.


Enjoy both players, brehs

I just prefer Penny

It's one thing to enjoy a player, it's an entirely different thing to say Penny is more skillful or effective than Bron because his game is prettier.

Wade is, by far, my favorite player to watch. Even now, I think his offensive craftiness is amazing.

Wade still isn't better than Prime Kobe or Lebron. He's just not.

You call me appreciating Penny a back track?




fukk outta here. In your retarded ass mind Because I know Bron is better equals me not appreciating Penny.

Saying Bron is better than Penny is not a "criticism of Penny."

fukk outta here with that clown shyt. I can appreciate Penny AND know Bron is better. Your either or shyt is straight retard status.

You probably need YouTube to even watch Penny in college

He was more like Durant or Curry.

his game was nothing like those two.

NOTHING like it. Dudes are just throwing names against the wall and hoping it sticks.

Penny played more like a more polished Eldridge recasner or a poor mans jerry west if ya ask me

 

[I.V.]

He was more like Durant or Curry. The best depending on who you ask

No.

He was never considered better than jordan. He was never considered better than prime Robinson or Dream, he was considered the second best player on his own team for most of his best years, because he played with Shaq.

There is no "penny era"

LeBron is a better passer than penny ever was.
LeBron is a better ball handler than penny ever was.
LeBron is a better shooter than penny ever was.
LeBron is a better rebounder than penny ever was.
LeBron is better in transition than Penny ever was.

Your question is, what does LeBron do better offensively than penny... the answer is - Everything.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Lebron's post game consists of just overpowering smaller players for the most part.

This myth needs to stop...he does do that because he's capable but he can and does do more than that in the post.

The passing

The power/bully ball

Drop step/spin offs

Fades/step backs/turnarounds

Hooks/Running hook shots w/ either hand

ALOT of for Lebron as always

 

[JYoung24]

Lebron stats puffes up from being the main gun?

Lebron is the best player on the planet why wouldn't he be the main person who has the ball.

Curry Durant westbrook and Davis are better

[JYoung24]

Because a pre prime LeBron was already the best player in the NBA and led a team by himself to the NBA finals.

He is better than Penny from any conceivable argument you can come up with. Just enjoy the past and view things objectively for once.

Penny vs Hill is a better argument.

A pre prime lebron was never the best player in the league don't try to change history

 

[JYoung24]

How hard is it to understand the point of this thread.

It's NOT saying Penny is better than Lebron.

It's saying the two players are similar.

Both are point forwards who did it all when no other players did.

Both were NBA superstars.

Might as well throw in they're both signed to Nike with popular signature shoes

What I'm saying is Lebron isn't as unique of a talent as people today make him out to be.

Penny was just as talented offensively (This has nothing to do with stats), maybe more skilled and talented overall than Lebron at a younger age.

He did what Lebron did years early facing much better competition.

Due to injury Pennys carrer never panned out. He never reached his potential or prime in the NBA.

While he was healthy people compared Peny to Magic Johnson and Michael jordan just like Lebron.

Just like Lebron, Penny was considered to be the face and future of the NBA.

PENNY WAS REGARDED AS THE BEST PLAYER IN THE NBA AT ONE POINT.

These Are all facts.

HOW THEN CAN HE BE OVERRATED?

Nobody's saying Penny is better than Jordan or Lebron.

But why is giving a great player like Penny recognition or even comparing him to Lebron a bad thing to you Lebron fans when he was even LEBROMS favorite player growing up.

These lebron dikkriders get so defensive

 

[DoubleClutch]

I'm sorry I just thought people would understand I don't mean in game but comparable in how big of a star they both are and how good they were regarded in the league as a whole in comparisons to other players.


I was responding to someone who said penny back then was more on the level of James harden today.

It's laughable to compare the two skill wise so I figured everyone should understand what I meant originally.

I agree with you here and that Penny was viewed as a growing rival to MJ
