As a LeBron fan I shutter to think about how pathetic it will probably be as he falls off. Nothing about his game gives me much hope towards the end, at least from a scoring standpoint. He could turn into a 10 ppg, 260 lb Jason Kidd though, which I would gladly take.
Except he's had a good post game for a while now.
His shot also wasn't awful until it just disappeared this year for unknown reasons.

Jordan > Lebron

I think if I were to create the greatest athlete( like a video game), he'd look, and have the athletic ability exactly like LBJ, I agree on that standpoint.
Not even sure who would be close to him from a physical freak standpoint, but people still won't relent because they're so conditioning to dispute all things Lebron.
He's not the best basketball player ever, but he's absolutely the best athlete.

Most teenagers are not aware of Jesse Owens. Mite want to check him out. Does the name Jim Brown ring a bell? And FWIW, neither of those legends called themselves The King.

Most clowns here would tell you Westbrok is a better athlete than Lebron
Lebron at the height of his athleticism, you can give him the nod. But not right now, he isn't quite as explosive as he used to be.

You seriously LBJ is anywhere near as fast as Bo Jackson? You think he can squat, bench, deadlift and maintain that muscle mass like Jackson did and then run like Bo did. LBJ is isn't close to as fast as Jackson was and he prlly has at least 6" in stride length. Oh, and Bo Jackson could also smoke a fastball out of any stadium. The coordination it takes to excel at squaring up a baseball is one of the most athletic things someone can do. Just watch Bo Jackson play baseball and you can see how fluid and smooth he is. Lebron is nowhere near that athletic.
Lebron Playing Football
Lebron First Pitch
You think LBJ can play outfield defense like that? You think he can throw a ball like that? You think he is strong and tough enough to go over the middle and hang onto a football while getting rocked by a safety or linebacker? You think he could run over a linebacker?
There's also a good chance that the best athlete to ever live is someone we've never heard of

I think Cam Newton and Calvin Johnson are the only other physical freaks I could compare with LBJ, and I think Lebron is bigger and taller than both.

Herschel Walker instantly comes to mind as a better athlete than Lebron...maybe even right now in his old age.
