Luka has better numbers, is a much better shooter, just as good of a passer and a fine rebounder. If some of y'all think Lebron is the Goat over Jordan, Luka is about to eclipse all of leBrons career numbers if he can stay as healthy. Rings are more of a GM thing as Luka has no real power there, but if kyrie actually plays well and they can get a solid big man Luka might finally get a ring in the next 2-3 years.

I'm telling y'all. Look at the numbers. Luka is better overall at the same age.

Lebron took his team to the finals by year 4

Bad bait

I mean if you only look at the offensive side of the ball...you could make a case. But Lebron was the complete package and did so many things for those Cavalier teams on offense and defense.

Will Luka be better than Lebron when he's Lebron's age?

[–] honestnbafan@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Impossible to compare numbers across eras like that and come up with a clear answer

2023 is a LOT different than 2009

[–] Beavshak@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Dumbass OP deleted his reply to you. But for the record, he said that Lebron had never made All-Defensive team, and that the 6-7 point difference between their individual defensive ratings was “not a big difference”. Complete chucklefuckery.

Offense is much much much easier in today's NBA than it was in the mid 2000s. Look at the league average in points, TS%, etc...

[–] AB-AA-Mobile@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Luka is better on offense, but LeBron was still better on defense.

[–] Same-Teaching-9358@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Luka doesn’t have the ability to carry a casual team to the finals. Bron does. Don’t know what the difference is but bron has it and luka doesn’t

More comments than upvotes is usually a sign that you done f’d up.

This shouldn’t have left the group chat.

Nice try, Yakub.

[–] prof_devilsadvocate@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

nice try luka

[–] WallOld615@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Trolls aren’t even trying anymore. They’re just shitting out words and hoping people get mad.

[–] pericles123@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

"look at the numbers" - how about watch some games? Luka is very, very good - but he's not better than LeBron was at the same age.

[–] DanM142@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Rings are more of a GM thing

I would say a team thing certainly... Saying it's a GM thing is quite a Krause esque take.

[–] jawadhaque089@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Luka has a negative on/off in his first few years and you think he's better than LeBron was?

[–] electricHats75@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

He’s no where near the defender Lebron was. He’s no where near athletic.

[–] achyutthegoat@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If you said this last year sure. But Luka is 24, which is the same age as 2009 LeBron. 2009 LeBron is one of the greatest years ever.

[–] gigglios@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

His first 5 years have been better. You can just say that

[–] Prolapse_leakage@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Terrible troll attempt.
