Either you're just terrible at supporting an argument or you no longer have the relevant evidence to support your argument so you have to resort to desperation.
There have been times when Michael Jordan was lit up offensively by a player he was guarding in game situations, all of a sudden that makes that player superior to Jordan from an all-time context? LOL a one on one game witness account isn't enough in any debate to mean anything

Therefore, just looking at stats alone and not actually watching the game and making a decision on your own, saying, "Okay, player x is better than player y, even though player y has better stats..."
RW > The Field
Westbrook didn’t have the best stats the last two years even

You know shooting percentages are a stat too, right?

I love Kobe Bryant, but he is not a better basketball player than LeBron James.

It is sad that you spend this much time inserting LeBron into threads that have nothing to do with him. He is living rent free in your head.

Maybe, but he wouldn't have been shooting 41%.

Then DeAndre Jordan is the best player in the NBA right now.

Have you ever heard of looking at all stats and not just picking a few?

I'm not a stat dork.
At some point, you have to put the statsheet down and just watch the game.

But we have seen how poor people are at watching and coming up with a rational true narrative

So you watch two players play and you come to the conclusion that the guy you watched score less while shooting more, while getting less rebounds and assists... Was the better player. Sounds like you don't know what you're actually watching.

Lebron is a better facilitator, that's about it.
I have no allegiance to any particular player. I do have allegiance to a particular team, the Lakers. If I had the power to go back in time and replace Lebron with Kobe, I wouldn't.

Mamba no joke.

Kobe was in his 14th season. Lebron was in his 6th having the best stats of his career. Define prime again?
