At first I thought this guy was way overrated but he's starting to gain my respect. But really what is so special about this guy that automatically elevates him to greatness when he is still at great. MJ is his own man I wish people would stop comparin them when LBJ still hasn't caught Kobe.

LeBron is so great because he can put up 30+ points, 7+ rebounds, and 8+ assists on any given night. MJ was and still is the best player out there but LeBron is catching up to him. If you look at LeBron's stats in his rookie year and then last year and compare it with MJ's, you'll find that LeBron is better all-around but MJ is better scoring. Remember, LeBron is doing all this and HE IS YOUNGER THAN MOST NBA ROOKIES!
If MJ joined the NBA out of high school like LeBron, then this would be a different story. Next year, LeBron has the possibility to be one of the greats.

Have you ever even seen LeBron play!?!/? Doesn't sound like it w/ a question like that. He is truly something special on the court. At this point he is nowhere as close to as good as MJ or even Kobe. But he is only 21! He's still going to get much better so watch out. But LBJ does need to work on his free throw shooting, I've seen him miss some big ones down the stretch.

So LeBron scored roughly one twentieth more points than Kobe last season under said circumstances. Fair enough. But look at the games they had chances to do it in. LeBron had fifty-one chances. Kobe had thirty-nine. So! 56 divided by 51...52 divided by 39... KOBE BRYANT was the more proficient clutch scorer last season. Interesting note: LeBron jacked up three times more three pointers in said situations than Kobe. Kobe made eight more percent of his three's than LeBron. Guy above me makes another good point. LeBron had nearly 100 more minutes, as well as 11 more games to score more.

He gets better every season and is one of the best players in the league. Kobe and LBJ are on the same level if you ask me. When Kobe wins a title without Shaq, we can put him ahead of the King.

LeBron was a runner-up for MVP last year, he won the All-Star MVP award, and the rookie of the year in 2003-04. His game is really great, and I can't wait to see him take on the Pacers tonight. Torn between Go Pacers vs. Go LeBron.

LB like Magic Johnson, he can pass, score , assists, and rebounds, he is a 10 on the scale of 1-10.

idk. He is not that great at all. He does not make things look easy and does not do any special tricks. He looks like a friggin' giant on the court, and that is it. Stop comparing him to Kobe, let alone MJ.
