To be fair to LeBron, he had a whole great career, and is 16 years in.
With that said, I remember saying a long time ago, that his game isn't going to age well. LeBron's game is a young man's game, not a season's vets game. Like Shaq, once Shaq started to fall off, he fell off the DAMN CLIFF! LeBron is the same. The problem is that Magic put everything into LeBron. I was hoping Kawhi would come, but Kawhi, like Paul George, want no part in playing with LeBron. My dream was Kawhi, LeBron and Ingram as a past, present, future stars. All I know is this, unless you get a bona-fide future Hall of Famer under the age of 25, you don't trade Ingram. I'd trade LeBron over Ingram. Hell, I'm half tempted to hope Magic goes to LeBron and say, hey, look, we will trade you to a team that you want to go to, we'll even just take draft picks, tell us where you want to go, and we'll help you get there.
And about LeBron getting shooters, this is the biggest flaw in LeBron's game. LeBron doesn't fit a system, he is the system. One reason his teams have always struggled in Cleveland is they tried to make the system around him. In Miami Riley was smart enough to make LeBron fit the system, which he hated, so he left. But the system LeBron likes is to have shooters around him. Much like the Three-Peat Kobe/Shaq Lakers. Stretch 4's like Love (Horry), outside shooters, a closer like Kyrie (Kobe). The problem with LeBron is that once he's off the court, as the system, the team falls apart. This makes it very hard to win actual series unless he plays 40 minutes a game, because there is no replacing LeBron. The Lakers built a different type of team around him, and LeBron has malfunctioned. The young core is doing good (except Josh Hart, but I always believed Magic shouldn't have traded Russell, but moved Russell to the 2), and people try to talk shit about the young core in the media. People talk about Boston's young core, but they are in the East. as LeBron is proving, the West is a WHOLE different monster. Here are stats of Boston vs. LA's young core.
Let’s settle this once and for all, which team would you rather have?
Team A Players:
-18.3 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 3 APG
-18.8 PPG, 5.6 RPG, 2.5 APG
-10.0 PPG, 5.3 RPG, 5.4 APG
Team B Players:
-16.1 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 1.8 APG
-12.8 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 1.4 APG
-8.8 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 3.1 APG
Team A was Ingram, Kuzma, and Lonzo
Team B was Tatum, Brown, and Rozier.

This really shouldn’t be a debate, I think the Lakers young core of players is still very underrated. If LA was in the East, even this team would be a playoff team. The East got really top heavy this year with Toronto and the Bucks, but still, the rest of the East is not that great. Coming to the West has exposed LeBron.

This is why I never want to rank people until their career is over. These are the years we truly see what they are made of. I think LeBron has the best peak of any player ever. But GOAT isn't best peaks, it's about getting knocked down and getting back up. LeBron is a good player, maybe the best all around game, but when I would argue with others, Greatness is something different. Greatness is Muhammad Ali fighting in Manilla, about to die, and not quiting against Joe Frazier, it's Kobe hitting free throws with a broken achilles, it's Jordan playing through food poisoning (originally thought to be the flu, but turned out decades later a fan tried to poison MJ in Utah). LeBron just doesn't have that.

please stop this bullshit now .. only thing lebron is the goat at is being the goat stat padder
lebron at his peak needed a superteam in the eastern conference that included a top 5 player and top 5 big to stat pad behind in order to win.
he would have NEVER EVERRR won a title with pau as a second option and thats a fact.
