It also didn't take LeBron 11 years to win his 1st finals:mjlol:

Edit: You literally just tap danced around my answer:mjlol:


Just like Hakeem going to the Finals in his 3rd season and winning 2 games against a Top 5 all time team
Wait, what happened in Lebron's first Finals? :dwillhuh::mjlol:

34 year old LeBron James in year 16 is shooting nearly 50% on long two’s, 37% from 3 with the capability of hitting step back 30 footers, is one of the leagues best passers, is still one of the leagues best slashers, dominates in transition, dominates the P&R as both a ball handler and roller, and is an elite post player.

Hakeem probably the greatest player in the post but how is his offensive arsenal more versatile than a wing like LeBron?

Hell yes. TD better than Hakeem. More rings, more MVPs, more Finals MVP's, more everything
Nigguh plz. Don’t make me come though the screen and leave powder across your face. Dream is a top 3 big of all time and went against other great bigs all the time. Duncan dodged Shaq whenever he could. Dont bring rings let’s talk about skill and craft. Hakeem was a better more skilled and versatile post player than Duncan was and a better defender. Dream is up their in tier 1 in defenders with Mutumbo

How did TD dodge Shaq when they met in 4 different playoff series? Especially considering Tim won 2 of those en route to championships?:gucci:

Hakeem is not more skilled than the most fundamentally sound big man ever:francis:

This is LeBron’s shot chart as of his 34th birthday and this guy thinks Hakeem was a more versatile scorer because of some pretty up and unders and ball fakes :snoop:

He also thinks Wizards MJ is equivalent to current LeBron :mjlol:

You're a goddamn moron.

What’s offense to you? Hakeem has a better back to the basket game, has more skilled footwork on the blocks, and has more counters.

Lebron is better at initiating offense quickly, better at running and reading the pick and roll, better passer(On an entirely different level), better playmaker (Both outta the post and on the perimeter), a better slasher, a better mid-range shooter, a better shooter off the catch, better at spacing the floor, a better three point shooter (Both off the dribble and off the catch), better ball-handler, and is a far more versatile offensive player. Let’s not even get into Lebron’s ability to manage the tempo of the game, his transition game, etc.

And even though Hakeem is better in the post, Lebron is still a goddamn monster and instant double team down there because Lebron is a GOAT-tier finisher at the rim. They do it differently but Prime Lebron was Shaq-tier finisher around the paint because he’s too strong and his touch around the rim is too good.
