Nikka wtf is this? KD leads him in 3s and FT and where is the PPG for the playoffs?
You left this out and only posted best playoff highs
You thought you were slick

You certainly went a step too farI'll go a step further and say Prime KD is a better overall basketball player than Prime LeBron. No weakness in his game. From rim protecting to bombing it from 3. All in a 7 foot package

In 3 NBA finals
LeBron 31.9/10.3/9
KD 31.7/8.1/4.9
Gotta say...Going to stacked Warriors team really boosted KD's legacy.
Everyone ignores how perfect that offense was for him.....it made a great player unstoppable.
He's an all time great player and you could argue he's a better scorer than LeBron.
I'll just say its going to be interesting to see how (hopefully's he's healthy) how KD plays without Steph's gravity

Lebron will score cause he has a high usage rate due to running the offense but hes not a scorer hes a playmaker first.
Imagine kd had the ball in his hands allll game? He could average damn near 40

It would be inefficient and he'd blow 3 straight games against the Warriors.
Like I said I can understand people saying he's a better scorer....going to GS made people think the gap was bigger when its really not.
Yes Larry Bird
You put LARRY BIRD in the top rung?
The same guy who never once scored 28ppg in a postseason even though he played in the high-pace, low-defense 1980s?
The same guy who once averaged 15ppg on 40% shooting in a Finals, including 8, 12, and 8 points in three consecutive Finals games?
Larry was never anywhere near as prolific as scorer as Bron has been.
LeBron average 29ppg in the playoffs hitting 54% of his twos and 33% of his threes.
Larry average 23ppg in the playoffs hitting 49% of this twos and 32% of this threes.
And LeBron did it against better defenses.
Ya'all hitting that magic era juice way too strong.
A dude who averaged 50/40/90 in the playoffs en route to an NBA championship. Dude could score in a myriad of ways and was one of the most skilled offensive players to ever touch the ball.
Of course he wasn’t the physical phenom LeBron was nor did he monopolize the offense to the degree he does, so of course when you compare their #s in a vacuum his scoring average isn’t as gaudy. But we all know which one of them had the jump shot and perimeter game you HAD to respect, superior post game, a dead eye shooter & money from the FT line.
So yes, in terms of proficiency Larry Bird is an all time great scorer of the ball. He’s not quite MJ or KD but proficiency and skill-wise he’s up there.

Lebron racking up 40 points games against weak eastern conference teams please don’t mention that old man

Ninjas show their lack of real life basketball knowledge in scorer debates. Hoopers aren’t mainly talking about simply putting the ball in the basket. It’s about skills.
