Lebron: CP3 similar to Stockton

[Joe Bagadonuts]

No way Paul is a better scorer. Stockton was the greatest pure pg to play the game, and it's not even close. He was so good at controlling and taking over a game by simply running an offense that he didn't feel a need to score, plus it didn't hurt that he played with the best offensive 4 of all time. Simply put he was a more efficient scorer and better shooter then Paul, but because he was such a good playmaker, he relied on it more then scoring for himself. He could've scored 22-24 a game if he had wanted to.

Stock's brother is also a better insurance agent than Paul's brother. Claims that other agents would send to adjusters he just settles himself on the spot. Total legend.

As much as we all hate Lebron I can't imagine what it would be like to see him in a Jazz uniform. It'd be like having a Jazzgasm every night.

Would be awesome.
And I don't hate lebron. Dude is unselfish, extremely talented, is a nice guy on and off the court, never gets in trouble off the court (I never hear about lebron drunk at the club getting into fights, having weapons on him, beating up women, getting dui's, etc etc) plays defense, rarely ever gets injured, is a good leader, does it all as far as basketball is concerned (assists, rebounds, defense, points, leadership)
Only weakness is his outside shot and The Decision imo

He does a lot of dumb things though and does a ton of things that makes it hard to like him. Yes he's a model citizen, but sometimes doesn't use common sence when dealing with teammates and media.

When you are on top for as long as him and always under the microscope and media/public scrutiny eventually he will have tons of haters for all kinds of trivial things no matter what he does.

Very rare that a player or star goes out of his way to throw a coach under the bus the way he did or call out fans after losing in the title game to Dallas or quit on his team the year he left cle. Or say to the world he wants to play with some other teams players in the middle of a season basically dissing your teammates. Should I go on??

I don't get it

The game was airing during the Golden State/San Antonio game, so him tweeting stuff about Stockton/Malone showed he was watching NBATV instead of watching the Warriors/Spurs game. That was the morning talk show spin on the tweets.

Oh I see.

 

[Magic Spray]

Both also accused of being dirty. CP3 for lil bitch nutshots, Stock for elbowing bigs on back screens. Apples to oranges, but still.

That's kind of my point.
When you are on the very top of the mountain you usually have a huge ego. Dudes with huge egos say and do petty trivial stuff.

Jordan was a total ******* by all accounts, talked hella trash, and has a gambling problem.

Kobe be getting accused of rape and bass ball hogging and running shaq out of town.

Shaq did lots of stupid crap. Malone be having kids all over the country with all kinds of women.
Barkley was a douche.

None of those guys get hated as much as lebron. I see way more good things about lebron than bad things.

I think the things you mentioned are not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.
But I understand if you do think those things are a big deal. I think they are blown out of proportion and if lebron played in the 80's or 90's no one would care.
Everybody is wussified these days and will crucify a guy over everything.

Not talking about being a criminal. LBJ is just dumb and a fake ***.

Speak for yourself. I have always like Lebron and would absolutely freak out if he became a Jazzman. However, that ain't going happen.
