2650117, Lebron James is the New Steph Curry
Posted by Orbit_Established, Tue Apr-10-18 04:53 PM


This is mad disrespectful. Lebron just trolls everyone, just discovering new shit to be excellent at.

In his 15th year.

2650170, His three-point shooting is not talked about much
Posted by Vex_id, Wed Apr-11-18 08:19 AM
but it's incredible how he works on his game constantly adding new wrinkles. He's a far superior long-range shooter than kobe or jordan ever were - and his clutch shooting from downtown in pressure 4th quarter situations has been something special to watch.

Of course, it wasn't too long ago when this board was mocking him for his jump-shooting - which is why OKS is the gift that keeps on giving.

2650190, Again: how much better a scorer Lebron is than Kobe is kinda hilarious.

It's kind of not really close: by just about every
measure, Lebron is better at putting the ball in the
basket.


2650238, there is no basketball skill in which kobe>bron

which is insane. kobe bryant is one of the 10-15 best players who ever lived and played bron's position, and bron is better at everything than a guy that good.
2650243, Kobe is slightly better at high school proms than Lebron.

But if we're being petty (which we are, even if we
are being truthful), Savannah is more attractive than
Brandy. (I mean today; No, I'm not commenting on the looks
of a 17 year old girl)

2650660, Kobe played Bron's position? Do you watch basketball??

2650445, because it wasn't too long ago when his jump-shooting was trash

2650455, Never "trash." Just not on par with the rest of his ungodly game.

It's true.
2650215, Credit Bron for improving his range
Posted by AtoZ 0toInfinity, Wed Apr-11-18 12:06 PM

As far as the Steph comparison goes Bron has a much smaller
sample size. Defenses will willingly give Bron that
shot with little to no resistance instead of him bodyin their
whole frontline with And 1s. The league wide scouting report on
Steph has always been pick him up at half court.

Although the article header is sensational, I don't think anyone
is seriously considering Bron as good a shooter as Steph
but to add to his game at this stage in his career is important.

If I could make a gripe about his shooting it would be FT pct
I'd like to see Bron get above 80% from the line
