I don't agree that they should necessarily hate each other, it's more wanting to beat the best on the biggest stage and prove that they are the best.


And I think they do generally, but like nearly every other profession, individuals want to work with a s be associated with the best (e.g., Univiersities, law firms, hospitals, etc).

I know this reply is late I've gotta address this. Before Larry Legend injured his back he was almost as much of a matchup nightmare as Lebron is today.
As far as an all around game, Bird had it all. He played stout D, while Lebron is a better passer Bird was no slouch, Lebron obviously has better athleticism but Bird could hit his J from anywhere and he was far more cold blooded and clutch than Bron Bron could ever hope to be.

Lebron vs. Larry Bird...


Depends on the rules. In the modern game, he'd hold Lebron to 12 points or less, depending on the situation-- Bird would hammer-foul him 6 straight possessions, for being a whiny bitch.

Under old rules, he'd score as many points as he could run out on, because the hard fouls wouldn't be called. Either LeBron would hobble out of that game, or they'd carry Bird out. Either way, there would be no doubt as to who was the greatest combo forward of all time...

Larry F'ing Bird.
