re: The Herd: LeBron Most "Valuable" Player...numbers don't lie

His stats have gone down since then.

i want to stress that these are one seasons stats compared to a combination of THE CAREER BESTS for everyone else. and yes, he is no longer leading the majority of them all, he is just similar to them all now

quote:

Curry had less pts then all of them besides Magic and Larry. Had less rebounds then all of them

which is fine, but since they are such different players, i dont really consider those nor did i really in my thread. i just put them there because everyone does

ad less assists than all of them besides Kareem

only magic and lebron had higher ast% numbers. and what he had this year pretty much falls in line with lebrons career average

Had less rebounds then all of them.

i have a hard time holding a guard at fault for this, even if stephs numbers are pretty low

Was a worse (not that he is a bad defender) then all of them besides maybe Larry and Magic.

---

when compared to the career bests of the rest, this is true

quote:

He shot more 3's then all of them though. Awesome. He had a higher "effective" and "true" FG%. No doubt he could possibly go down as the best shooter of all time. But that's basically the only thing he is better than those guys at

---

and yet, when this season is compared to the CAREER BESTS of everyone else, not just their best season but every single stats career best, outside of defense which i will concede he isnt really in the discussion, he comes out rather similar and was doing better for the majority of the season

so yea, this year was at least a top 10 season of all time
