I don't treat him like a God. I could care less about LBJ or the Miami Heat. I'm just having a good ol' sports argument.

STLG when did I say he traveled? Are you admitting the crab dribble is a blatant travel?

Ps- I have forgotten more about basketball and the NBA than you will ever know. Go somewhere else, if you haven't noticed most people here are sick of you.

The bottom line is Lebron is a great player and the only argument against that (even if it's not much of an argument) is that he's got 0 rings.

He passes, rebounds, and plays better defense than Kobe and MJ. He scores just as well as either of them, and starting this post-season he's showing what he can do with a supporting cast.

Not to mention the fact that Kobe basically admitted to raping that girl even though the case was dropped. So as far as character issues go, Lebron is at least ahead of Kobe.

"I also want to make it clear that I do not question the motives of this young woman. No money has been paid to this woman. She has agreed that this statement will not be used against me in the civil case. Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not and does not view this incident the same way I did."

I assumed you were calling the "Crab dribble" traveling. I'm not implying it's a blatant travel, but I've watched a lot of games where players like Lebron and Kobe get away with an extra half step.

I don't have a problem with you and your girlfriends being sick of me. If you don't like it, you can leave.

STLG, just out of curiosity, what was the highest level of organized basketball which you have ever competed?

He is a great player, and I feel that fans and some analyst make it worse by anointing him the next MJ... He is his own player and not much like MJ. We live in a society where "rings" = greatness.... Well I don't quiet feel that is 100% accurate since 12 guys get a ring every year, being a leader and stone cold assassin on the court do = greatness to me.... That's where LeBron loses points with me.

What are you talking about. You know I could care less about Lebron. I'm a Hawks fan.

To young...right...You know me outside of this forum.

I agree about rings. Greatest teams ever should really be the only thing judged by how many rings they won together. It is a team sport afterall.

I'd love to see where you're going with this. You think you know more about basketball than the rest of us because you played past college? Boy oh boy your credibility is slowly going down the drain.

Before you go any further. Let me remind you of the existence of a few of the leading sports analysts out there and you can tell me "what was the highest level of organized [sport] they ever competed."

Mel Kiper
John Clayton
Michael Wilbon
Stephen A. Smith (I think he might have played in college)
Chris Broussard

I don't know why I bother with your last few comments:

Barkley > Lebron
Horry and Fisher more clutch than Lebron
