Sorry, didn't realize LeBron, Wade, and Bosh came together past their prime in their 30's.

This argument is void. Once again, he had a team that was able to get the best record in the NBA going into the playoffs TWICE!!!

I like watching these tards talk about Pippen like he was some scrub.

I'd take Pippen over Bron Bron and Wade any day.

LeBron is much better than Pippen was.

And Pippen was great.

Lebron is a good stat guy. Pippen was a Baller who did whatever it took to win.

You'd also take Kobe over Jordan, so I don't believe anyone will take you seriously.

Lebron = Pippen. Both were/are great defenders, and their offensive skillset is pretty much the same.


ETA: both needed a closer too.

LeBron is a much better passer and is becoming so much more efficient than Pippen ever was.

Pippen had 2 seasons shooting over 50% - LeBron has had 3.

This thread is

And to those who say that Pippen is better than Lebron...what backup do you have for that?

LINK

This is a cumulative comparison between the two for their first 8 years.

Wade and Pippen are close I'd say

And I won't even do Jordan vs. anyone else because stats don't really mean anything in regards to him

Cool feature on Basketball reference. Didn't know that could be done.


And Wade is a better than Pippen. He's super underrated in an all time sense. His numbers are insane. He'll likely retire as a top 15 all timer. That wasn't apparent when before lebron and bosh came over.

Yea I thought i had seen something like that somewhere before and just looked it up.

I think Wade and Pippen are honestly a push. Pippen is one of the top 10 defensive players of all time, and I think people discount that too much when talking about "best" players. You can't just look at offensive stats and compare them. There aren't enough stats for defensive skills to really make up for a PPG disparity

There's some good stuff on basketball reference. You can also do a specific player vs another and pull up all head to head games. I used that feature the other day in the Duncan vs KG thread
