lmao, what a terrible take
Lol yeah what would Rodman know

I mean, Rodman also said "It’s really not a comparison. If Lebron was playing in the late 80’s or early 90’s, he’s just an average player."Lol yeah what would Rodman know
Not NBA history, but this is still the worst flop I've seen just in terms of late reaction.
Rudy's was bad, but acting wise it was pretty solid.
to me it is Bosh vs Boozer.I still think Baron Davis dropping like memo shot him was the worst of all time.
If there is one 80’s player I’d like to see match-up against LeBron, it wouldn’t have been Charles Oakley, Laimbeer, Barkley, or Malone. Those 4 aren’t fast enough to keep up with LeBron. Steve Nash once said LeBron was the fastest player from stripe-to-stripe that he’d ever played against. LeBron also has a height advantage over Michael Jordan and most 2’s and 3’s that come to mind.LeBron would absolutely torch everyone in the 80’s and 90’s.
Magic was slow as ****.If there is one 80’s player I’d like to see match-up against LeBron, it wouldn’t have been Charles Oakley, Laimbeer, Barkley, or Malone.

No, the 80’s player who I think could match 6’9” LeBron’s size and speed is 6’9” Magic Johnson. You could match them up and say maybe LeBron was better than Magic at this or that, but remember that basketball is a team game. Is there anyone who thinks LeBron makes his team better than Magic who got his team to the NBA finals 9 times in 12Mayears? Was 1 of only 3 players in NBA history to get 700 points, 700 rebounds, and 700 assists in a single season? Won 5 NBA Championships? Was the NBA season assists leader 4 times and the season steals leader 2 times? This is a personal judgement, but I also think Magic was far superior at working the crowd and the refs.
Is there anyone who knows Magic’s game that will take the position that a team made up of 4 guys playing with Magic Johnson would lose to a team made up of those exact same 4 guys playing with LeBron? No way. LeBron would get smoked.
....slow enough to lead the NBA in steals for 2 seasons and play at the point guard spot night after night against sub-6-foot speedsters.Magic was slow as ****.
Byron Scott guarded opposing point guards. Your thesis is wrong.....slow enough to lead the NBA in steals for 2 seasons and play at the point guard spot night after night against sub-6-foot speedsters.
True. I'll concede the point on point guard speed, but still hold that Magic brings more to a team game than does LeBron.Byron Scott guarded opposing point guards.
