I would take Embiid over LeBron in the regular season.
I'd take LeBron over Embiid in the playoffs.
I would take retired LeBron with no prep over playoff Embiid.
This is where I’m at. Embiid is in his prime now and I absolutely take him in the RS, but I trust Bron more even at his current age over Embiid in the playoffs.
Hakeem Olajuwon
Prime Malachi Flynn
Gilbert Arenas is my second favorite player and I’d take this version of lebron over him. And I’m taking Prime Gilbert over Prime Klay Thompson.
U clearly don’t know how good Gilbert was then. And peak Klay couldn’t hold peak Gil’s jockstrap. Peak Gil was pretty easily a better offensive player than Lebron right now.
Stephen Curry with the stipulation that Lebron is full heathy
He’s not close to Steph curry. Last time he was was 2020.
I don't think Fox is quite in his prime but otherwise....co-sign u/tyler1118. Honestly, I'd take this version of Bron over any version of Pippen. That's how far the bar goes. Maybe even higher.
LeBron at his best is a top 5 impact player right now.
That's fair, Fox would be entering his prime this year for sure though.
I think this year is gonna be the Prime year for sure. He looked like he was taking another leap in the playoffs.
Lebron isn’t close to a top 5 player right now. He’s great but there are 10 better players than him who impact games more than him at the highest level.
I don't think he is overall but I do think his best is still top 6 perhaps. I'm taking Bron's best over Tatum, for example. Unquestionably.
Id take current Bron over peak Klay
