As an old guy here.....my hatred of Lebron is also across most of the current NBA players...the league has so many phantom calls comparative to the 80s early 90s..

They all whine for a foul all the time...if you put Lebron in a time machine in the late 80s, he is going to dominate some games, but the beat down that he is going to take going down the lane is going to wear him down.....

If you watched the Bad Boys documentary...MJ worked out and bulked up so he could take the abuse that was going to come his way. Yes, Lebron is already a freak of nature, but the other night foul was a Tuesday night in the NBA in the 80s

You realize Lebron knows that right? He said after the Mcroberts foul something along the lines of "I know that was common in the 80's and if we still had 80's rules I'd have come up swinging after he foul or we'd have got him back at the other end. But that's not how the game is anymore and my team can't afford for me to get ejected." He's just playing the game how it has to be played nowadays. Assuming he couldn't hack it in a more physical league just bc he doesn't play in one is a pretty big logical fallacy. Especially as the player who far and away takes the biggest beating in today's game
