Who is the most overrated 3 pointer shooter?
YugoRocketsFan replied to ChosenOne's topic in General NBA Discussion
How can you be an overrated 3 point shooter? -
You better have a good rod.

Which forums? What was your name there? I always havent been biased, I just dont think he is as great as people make him out to be, if he had won the majority of finals MVPs, won more MVP awards, did great more than just 4-5 years and made his teammates a lot better, I would consider him as great as others do. The best player debate is still up in the air, I think LeBron takes it.

[Completed] NBA's greatest small forward?
YugoRocketsFan replied to Real Deal's topic in General NBA Discussion
The 80s WERE considered the golden age of basketball, but the 90s were a lot better, more teams, a lot of better players like Jordan, Hakeem, Malone, Stockton, Shaq, etc. But thats entirely a different subject. BTW the first paragraph undeniably shows that you are a LeBron-hater, but I see why since you support the Wizards. The 80s post defenders wouldn't give 2 [expletive]s? You are making it seem like LeBron wouldn't be doing the same thing 20 years ago as he would today, LeBron for a 6'8 player is VERY mobile and athletic, players in the 80s didnt see anyone like LeBron, Jordan who was a lot skinnier than LeBron did good in the 80s, LeBron whole is built like a rugby player would still plow threw everyone as he does today. Would I consider Malone better than Jordan? No, and statistically speaking he wasnt even better than him, Jordan by career average, averaged 30.1 ppg which is more than Malone. You also cant compare a PF to a SG, its totally different, Jordan had more ways to score, because he could work more from outside. LeBron still rakes in more assists than Bird, thats the way I use to determine the better passer, you might do it differently, but thats my way of comparing. The game 20 years ago was totally different than today's game too, The Cavs had a minor jump from LeBron's first year, had about an 18 game swing, but considering LeBron was 19 at the time, thats pretty huge. Larry Bird might have taken his team to the ECF when he was 22, but LeBron took his team to the finals at age 23. LeBron is only 25, so rings will come. -
Baylor, you mad?

Thats a good point, but the more shots you take, the less efficient you would be. LeBron's career field goal % is 47.5% compared to Bird's 49.6%, the main reason for that is because LeBron's field goal % was mediocre his rookie year, which was about 41.7%, and the fact that Larry Bird was a tremendous 3 point shooter, with age, LeBron's 3 point shooting will go up, you can tell he has tremendously improved on that and free throw shooting in the past few years. LeBron James while not that good of a free throw shooter as Bird, he still went to the line a lot more. Bird being more complete offensively doesnt make him a better scorer than LeBron, just gives him more weapons, but its better to have 1 perfect weapon than 3 good ones. -

How is LeBron the better scorer? Who cares if LeBron doesnt have an amazing 3 point shot or some crazy post game with lots of finesse moves, he gets his 30 night in and night out by just simply being better than everybody. Not only that but a 22-23 year old LeBron averaged 31.4 ppg, while Larry Bird's highest in his career is 29.9 ppg. When LeBron is 28, he will amass more points than Larry Bird has in his career. Who cares what kind of offense Cleveland runs, he gets his assists doesnt he? Larry Bird also had better options in Robert Parish and Kevin McHale while LeBron has never had a solid 2nd option his whole career. Comparing one of today's players to a legend is still somewhat considered blasphemy, but look at LeBron, if you honestly put the current LeBron in Larry Bird's time, there would be no way to stop him. -
If you wanna add things to your diet, cereal (any kind tbh even Cocoa Pebbles), tuna fish, healthy choice soup (which is delicious), and rice are very good.

A much better passer? I wouldnt agree there, even if Bird is better than LeBron, you could say slightly at best. LeBron is right now averaging 8.5 APG (which isnt even human for a SF)while Bird's career high is a 7.6 Bird was a better shooter and rebounder, but still LeBron is easily the better scorer, much better when slashing because he either creates or just dunks the crap out of the ball. -
Aha yes.

Uh damn brah, might wanna add Tuna or maybe that Healthy Choice Soup at wal-mart, those things are good to eat.

Bro, we are talking about LeBron James, the guy who puts 30 points every night and still get at least 8 assists, hes not even human. Sure Larry Bird was good in his time but put LeBron in the past, he would be better than almost anyone, would probably average 45 ppg in Bird's time. -
A beastlier pau gasol.

No they dont, everyone bandwagons UNC.

Ya he reminds me of Pau Gasol.

I did it before, no lie.
