no, it's not

the degree lebron is better than wade has to be compared to the difference in degrees of defenders

kidd, and especially terry, are not good man defenders

(regular season stats, but lbj is ahead in postseason stats as well)

FT:

Lebron: 75.9%
Wade: 75.8%

3PT:

Lebron: 33.0%
Wade: 29.2%


which further proves my point. Wade has a slightly better field goal % than Lebron. Lebron has a slightly better 3 point % than Wade. And, they are virtually even in free throw %.

It is not indisputable that Lebron is a better shooter than Wade. That was my only point. It's more of a flip of a coin. And, when you consider that most on here have already admitted that Wade slept walk through the season while Lebron played his hardest, it could even be argued that Wade may be a better shooter when he actually cares.

Haha...the degree to which LeBron is a better player than anybody is significant. Shawn freaking Marion is no match for LeBron.

which means much less than mid-range and 3 pointers when discussing being a shooter

a 5% difference mid-range and 4% difference in 3 pointers is HUGE

Wade has a slightly better field goal % because he takes more shots in the paint. Lebron shoots the ball significantly better from mid range and 3. Lebron takes and makes more jumpers than Wade. It's about as indisputable as something like this can possibly be. I almost can't even believe that you're trying to argue this.

So Wade is the slasher and Lebron is a jump shooter now?

wade has to rely more on driving b/c he's a more limited offensive player

Wait. I thought slashing was the "efficient" and "smart" way to score. That's what I always see in Lebron threads. Is Lebron forgetting how to play smarter with all this newfound jump shooting? And when did the Wade become limited offensively? This is a new thing I'm hearing. Somebody fill me in. Because the limited player sure is playing alot better right now.
