Lol LBJ is one of the fastest players in the league. Ran like a 4.5 in high school. That's pretty fast for 6'8 260.


1) In high school he wasn't 260lbs.

2) That 40 time was ONE hand timed run that no one else saw.

3) If by one of the fastest you mean in the top 100 then maybe. There are about 30 guards that could run circles around him.


eta: Here's a little nugget about MJ at North Carolina:

quote:

“Smith says Jordan is the hardest worker he’s ever coached. In high school Jordan hustled so, he was nicknamed The Rabbit. Rabbit, run. When he enrolled at Chapel Hill, Jordan ran the 40-yard dash in 4.6 seconds. This fall he ran a 4.3. By running and lifting weights he has substantially built up his upper body and gained 12 pounds in two years, most of it in the shoulders.” November 28, 1983

What do you mean by fast? because last time i checked Lebron gets to rim and drives fairly easy which takes some type of quickness and speed and he's a great defender which takes lateral foot speed... same with Durant length of a center but ball skills quickness and mobility of a guard

Btw 40 times don't matter in basketball... and we're talking about the world's greatest athletes. These aren't old men playing on a street court.
