I do agree with basically everything he said... Wilt was an absolute freak so yes he could carry a team... if you can score 100 points in a game don't you think the other guys can chip in 20 and get you a win?

Russell on the other hand from 56-59 had a total of 5 other HOF players and the 62-63 team had cousy and havlicek as the other stars.... look around at the rosters, plenty of all-timers on those squads that won russell all those rings.

Wilt though was incredibly fast, could shoot and was huge and powerfull. Absolutely nobody could guard him. Shaq in his prime vs wilt in his prime would have been a nice battle but wilt would have simply run around him.

Bunch of haters in here!

Overrated

1. Anything that is given too much credit and hype.



2.

A word which recently has been used liberally as a way of discrediting something without having to give a proper
justification, most often when someone finds they have a disliking for a popular phenomenom and is resentful of
those who embrace it. Often used by anti-trendies.

3.

Being Not nearly as good as they seem to think

All haters refer to #2 above then go to post #17 and read it again!

He consistently puts up 30+ a night, has 7 triple doubles this season, reached 10,000 points faster than anyone in NBA history, (yes, that includes Kobe and Jordan). Of course he entered the NBA at a younger age than most players but he scored 10k playing in far less games than anyone also.

He's the league's leading scorer this year and has been a top scorer in the league since he entered - straight out high school and only 23 years old I might add.

OK, the key phrase for today is NBA History.

Check out his amazing achievements after only 4 years in the league:

One of three players in NBA history to average at least 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in their rookie season.
Includes Oscar Robertson and Michael Jordan.

One of five players in NBA history to average over 25 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists in a season.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this six times), John Havlicek (achieved this twice), Larry Bird, and Michael Jordan.

One of four players in NBA history to average at least 31 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists in a season.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this twice), Jerry West, and Michael Jordan.

One of two players in NBA history to average at least 27 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists for three consecutive seasons.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this eight times).

One of three players in NBA history to record a triple-double in their playoff debut.
Includes Johnny McCarthy and Magic Johnson.

2nd place all-time for consecutive 20-point games to start a playoff career with 19.
Behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's 27 consecutive games.

Only player in NBA history to score 25 straight points for his team in a playoff game.

Looking at the company he keeps above should settle this debate once and for all!

Anyone who says he is overrated obviously doesn't know a damn thing about Lebron or the NBA.

Oh I forgot to mention he is fun to watch and fills arena seats in cities all around the country!

Better check you stats:

Wilt Chamberlain (236 games)
Michael Jordan (303)
Abdul-Jabbar and Oscar Robertson (334)
Lebron James (368 games)

Ok, my bad...I must have confused it with some other record he's broken.

shitty way to spam LOL of course he's overrated LMAO he can't shoot... He's just a big bodied guy that can pass and drive to the hoop.

The day he makes some 3's when the game is on the line maybe we can start talking about him

Every GM and coach in the league would disagree with you, but hey, what do they know? :winkwink:

With that said, Kobe Bryant is the best player on the planet and the closest we've ever come to a next Michael Jordan. His decision making abilities is what holds him down, like chucking too much shit and not trusting your teammates. Both of those guys are the future of the NBA. Also, Duncan is the greatest power forwards the NBA has ever had.
How the fuck can you be overated and be the second best player in the league??

James Sets Scoring Mark in Cleveland Win
 
CLEVELAND (AP) ? Already a supreme scorer, LeBron James is second to none.

James passed Brad Daugherty as Cleveland's career scoring leader in the first quarter and finished with 29 points, leading the Cavaliers to a 90-83 win over the Toronto Raptors on Friday night in a possible first-round playoff preview.

In just his fifth NBA season, James moved to the top of the franchise's career scoring chart, a remarkable achievement for a remarkable player whose potential seems limitless.

He scored 23 points in the second half, including 11 in the final 7:19 as the Cavaliers won their ninth straight at home.

It took Daugherty 548 games to amass 10,389 points. James, the NBA's leading scorer in his fifth pro season, has 10,414 points in just 380 games. He added 12 rebounds and five assists.

Oh, so overrated :)
