He’s not 6-9 not 275lbs and not that fast. People think Bruce Bowan was great on D because of Lebron. You obviously want to drink his seed but what you’re saying is silly.

One of the most idiotic posts I’ve ever seen on this board. Complete fabrication, easy to see you witnessed none of what you’re talking about and just made it up.

quote:Cmon lol he was one of the fastest players in the league in his prime. He covered ground as well as anyone in the NBA.
and not that fast.
quote:Lebron averaged 29/7/6 on Bowen in his career lol.
People think Bruce Bowan was great on D because of Lebron.
People do not think Bowen was a good defender because Lebron had a rough series (22/7/7) on one of the worst teams to ever make the finals. Bowen was also all defense 3 times before Lebron entered the NBA
quote:I detest Lebron James.
You obviously want to drink his seed but what you’re saying is silly.
He is still a top 2 player of all time, at worst.

Rodman was never a scorer. Only averaged double digits for a season once in his entire career. Dude was just a menace on defense and the glass. And he knew how to get under his opponent’s skin

He’s none of those things. He’s 6-8 about 240lbs tops, he’s fast for that size yes but one of the fastest players, no. You must have missed that 07 series, he was shite, Bowen made his name there. He’s not a top 2 player alltime, you talk like you watched a media clip of Lebron and regurgitated it. If he were close to that good he’d have won a whole lot more. The league bent itself to help him do that and he still couldn’t.

He carried some horrendous Cavs teams deep in the playoffs. He lost to the dynasty spurs, Mavs got him, and then the dynasty warriors, then everyone else caught up with super teams. I don't even give him credit for the bubble. Outside of his time with the Heat, he never had the best roster in the league. He won a title in Cleveland without the best roster in the league - something other greats were never able to do.
It's not his fault there were no expansion teams to pick on in the later years of his career. He played during a time when the NBA was (is) as talented as it's ever been.
Go ahead and look at the rosters of the bottom barrel teams from that era. They don't come close to modern rosters. Like, not remotely close. shite, even some of the playoff teams of that era are extremely underwhelming from a talent standpoint. It's not even the same sport anymore.
You hate Lebron and love 80s and 90s basketball, we get it. No one cares.
Posted on 4/15/26 at 1:04 am to PP7 for heisman
Well you started at 275lbs so you don’t get to nit pick about me listing his real height/weight
That is correct and look just to skip this silliness I’ve been around basketball players for 30 something years, I know how big and tall guys are and I know when they’re miss measured or how fast/quick they are. Iverson and guys like that, John Wall, D’Arron Fox, he isn’t close to that speed.
And of course here come the excuses. This formula you people have invented to judge him was fed to you and is bullshite. Every guy in that GOAT convo had their own challenges and circumstances to overcome bit they did it anyway. The simple fact is at some point you reach the end, there’s one opponent in front of you and can you win it. Those guys did, he didn’t, period. #2 alltime lmfao, barely top 10.

Are you under the impression Jordan didn’t win anything before the 96 title?

They only played in playoffs 6 times, in 86 and 87, the best 2 teams of Birds career.

never beat a decently healthy Isaiah in a series.
Bulls won 91. Pistons lost before they could play bulls in 92. Pistons didn’t even make playoffs in 93. How exactly were the bulls supposed to force the pistons to be healthy and good enough to play them in playoffs?

LeBron would leave the court crying in 10 minutes

Lol, no

They played different games. One was a bruiser who did not care about scoring.

pretty sure that rodman would find a way to irritate him just like he did to several other players while he played

Winless vs Bird in their 2 playoff series*

Lebron against Rodman in primes, who ya got?
I’m not even a huge Lebron guy but this isn’t close… LeBron is 1000x better than Rodman in any era idgaf.
Cavs and Heat LeBron was one of the 2 most effective drivers in nba history. The other being MJ who everyone compares him to.
Rodman ain’t better than prime LeBron and LBJ would win 10 out of 10 times in 1 v 1 if we’re being honest
He ain’t stoping this:
Posted on 4/15/26 at 7:49 am to prplhze2000
Rodman would be able to contain prime LeBron a lot better than others did. However, Rodman wouldn’t be able to score much in a 1:1 situation.
Being able to hold MJ to 25 when he would normally put up 30 doesn’t do anything with you only put up 8 in a 1:1 matchup,
Advantage LeBron.

Rodman wasn't the 1:1 on defensive stopper you guys think he was

They don’t know what’s what.
The media has turned them into the sports version of a Tim Walz/Kamala Harris voter.
There is almost no difference between them.

You never seen Rodman play obviously. Dude was cat quick and was often on guards. Is LJ considered fast?
