If Lamar is considered "Lamar Drexler/McGrady" here, who are the NBA equivalents of J Allen & Burrow?

Jordan was still balling even though he wasnt winning. He was raising his game despite copping Ls. Lamar dont even be playing at his regular season level. That is more in line with Mailman or Robinson or Harden.

Mahomes is Mike if he was drafted by a good team.

Allen is young Shaq...all the tools and opportunities but stay falling short.

The Burrow/AI comp is spot on @Heelmatic . ...all the way down the racial part and his swag playing a major role.

LAMAR HAD 2 TURNOVERS
(No one is perfect every game)
IN HIS LAST GAME BUT HE STILL
BALLED AND OUTPLAYED ALLEN.

ANDREWS CATCHES THAT 2PT
OR DOESNT FUMBLE
AND WE'RE HAVING A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT CONVO.

YOU TALKING LIKE
HE STUNK IT UP
:devil:

That wasnt his only playoff game. And still it wasnt to the level he played at all season (nikka had like 6 or 7 TO all season)...let alone higher.

I CLARIFIED IN MY POST
BUT YOURE QUOTING SO QUICK
YOU DIDNT SEE IT.

I SAID CURRENT LAMAR
WAS 80S MJ
NOT YOUNGER LAMAR.

THIS LAMAR WE HAVE RIGHT NOW
IS THE CLEAR CUT BEST PLAYER
IN THE NFL, YOUNG LAMAR
WASNT COMPLETE
:devil:
:evil:

Becuse it wasnt there :pachaha:. I can only respond to what you posted.

MJ balled for years before finally getting squad around him to compete for chips. You cant compare all those years to one year of Lamar being better than he has in the past but still not to the same level we have seen consistently during the season, with Henry in the backfield on top of that. Football MJ with this squad is headed to 2nd straight SB.

The greatest player of his era is Patrick Mahomes. Lamar is the second greatest player of this era, and all the football people who vote on how great they think players are, have told us that they think Lamar is comparable to Mahomes thru their votes for All-Pro and MVP (Pro Bowl too but that obviously has heavy fan influence). The basketball comp for Lamar would have to be the second greatest player of an era who didn't have championship success but rivaled the era's best player in accolades and performance otherwise...

The best comp is that Lamar is Wilt and Mahomes is Russell. You could argue that Russell was a better player than Wilt, despite the statistical dominance of Wilt; and it's inarguable that Russell was the routinely greater playoff performer, and hoarded all the championships, and outplayed Wilt in H2H playoff series....

Wilt finally won his first championship in Year 8, Lamar just finished Year 7. Wilt won his 3rd MVP in Y8, the same year he got his title; Lamar is the betting favorite to get his 3rd MVP in Y7...

All these Drexler and McGrady comps are hilarious because this is The Coli, but Lamar is objectively a greater player in his sport, than they were in theirs...

Thats a good comp. They even call Andy Big Red :ohhh:. It fits perfectly the last 2 years but Mahomes was putting up dumb numbers himself before that. What do you think about MJ and pre-rings Dream? Or how about Pat as Tim and Lamar as KG?
