expected mid wit takes, so far

the only correct answer is His Highness, Lebron James

averages 27 ppg for his career (same as the "greatest scorer of all time" KD)
one of the best passers of all time
lock down D
35% 3pt shooter

what weaknesses does he have
LeBron has never been a lockdown defender and the Spurs almost won an NBA finals because LeBron isn’t an elite shooter.

He has become one over the years, but his defense has been trash since.

The bigger issue (outside of injuries) with Embiid is that he tends to be an emotional liability on the court and you can see it at times in the way that he plays. If he's not in a good mood, then he's not going to have a good performances.

I mean if we are going to start psychoanalyzing players then that is a hole that every player in the history of basketball has except for maybe Tim Duncan:russ:

A hole in Kawhi's game is that his uncle runs his life and if you don't do what uncle dennis says, Kawhi might demand a trade, or he might leave your team championship team because you didn't build the team he wants, or he might get hurt but not even let you disclose his injury to the media.

Here’s a name that’s not gonna get thrown around but actually fits perfectly here.

As far as basketball SKILLS go strictly, Joe Johnson does not have one flaw. Not one. That man can do everything on the court at a good to elite level.

Cuttino Mobley is also someone who had very few actual flaws, if any.

Bron has been a very good defender the last two seasons so your argument is kinda flimsy right now.

Can score from anywhere on the floor at high efficiency. Can shoot free throws, can dribble, can defend all nba level

Center self, inner self
If Giannis just stuck to bully ball/Euro Stepping into a finish at the rim as his game, he'd be in this conversation.

KD's one flaw has nothing to do with his game. He's skinny. Hasn't stopped much of anything but the right defender (should he ever come along) could potentially exploit that.
Giannis!?!! Absolutely not
