I can't believe I'm starting to agree with it.

LeBron is the size of Karl Malone....both have a history of huge dunks / force / etc.. and their timing on alley-oops, etc is just perfect.
I wish Kobe had a running mate

Am i saying dwade>jordan and lebron>pippen no... but its alot closer then what ppl will give credit for esp seeing theres a higher level of competition at those positions then there was in mj and pippens prime years. And besides that whens the last time you had 2 dominant players at the wing position like this outside of mj and pippen.

I can't deny it's alot closer than what I want to admit either. I'd easily take Lebron/Wade over anyone else playing right now as a tandem
agreed. it's lebrons frame + speed that makes him a nightmare.Originally Posted by LDJ

i would agree as menacing as mj was... lebron comming full steam to the lane... you gtf out the way period. id take my chances tryin to stop mj on a fastbreak over standing infron of lbj. and its not like dwade is a slouch either. ppl moved from jordan because of the shame/embarrass factor, with lbj you move out the way for fear of getting run over/getting hurt.
and with kobe just watching how he plays, i couldnt imagine him having a dominate wingman; its just hes to much of a one on one iso player, and cant see him having a 2 man game outside of a bigman, in which they wouldnt be working/playing in his area

Let's not forget about Blake Griffin, once he leaks out everyone parts like the red sea as well
Sure both are great but Lebron is a guy who likes to defer to his team maters more before anything, more of an over-sized more athletic Magic Johnson, but those two have not won a single ring while MJ/Pip have won 6 (with MJ being one of the greatest closers ever).....its not a close gap.Originally Posted by LDJ
