I hope you're not really being serious when you say that.

Lebron's jumper has improved a good bit since 2007.

He's a better rebounder now.

He went from averaging 6 assists per game to 8.6 per game, that's a substantial increase.

He went from people dogging his defensive game to finishing 2nd for DPOY and is widely regarded as one of the better on ball defenders in the league today.

How you can say he hasn't improved "much" is beyond me to be honest.

Like all LeBron apologists you're trying to prop him up with meaningless regular season statistics.

Stats are vastly overrated in basketball. CP3 on paper has improved every season in efficiency, but anybody with eyes sees that he hasn't been the same killer that he was in 2006/2007 these last two seasons.

Ditto for LeBron. Congrats on averaging 2 more assists and skying for that extra rebound over the Knicks, dude. Well played.

Its refreshing to see a star that realizes that his profession, and winning, will ultimately lead to his fame outside the basketball court (cough Lebron cough)

So you're saying Michael Jordan didn't get his own shoe and ALL that hype and commercials until after he won his 1st title?

Gotcha.

So you don't think Lebron is better offensively now than in 2007? WOW!!!

And why are you ignoring defense?? If you don't think he is a MUCH MUCH better defender now then in 2007, then you honestly don't know enough about basketball to be discussing it dude.

Jordan was pimping Nike, Gatorade, AND McDonald's and was WAY more visible than Lebron ever thought about being as far as endorsements go. And he made a damn Looney Tunes movie. This whole notion that you can't care about 2 things at the same time is beyond fricking retarded. But keep hating haters. You are so

Thank you. Lebron learned that shite from his favorite player, JORDAN
