Where did this come from.
It has overrun this subreddit, every single comment and post bloated by “prime LeBron” “prime Curry” “prime Harden” “prime Jokic.” Ah, great thanks for being specific that you meant PRIME Lebron, now we know you’re talking about somewhere between 2003 and 2024. NEWSFLASH: HE’S BEEN GOOD THE WHOLE TIME. Oh, PRIME curry, you mean a specific moment in over a DECADE of splashing nets?! Prime in what way? Can prime Barkley have an off night? Can prime Dwight forget how to PnR? You’ve all been playing too much 2k maxing out the sliders at 99 and wanting an exact statistical result from your theorycrafting, touch grass and watch the game, not the box score.
Prime has lost all meaning, signifying nothing, told by an idiot, infecting every corner of our discourse.
Stop saying prime.
You need to learn the definition of prime so you can keep up little guy. It’s a fairly easy concept to grasp.
I’ll give you a cheat sheet though.
Prime LeBron (2013-2019) 2018
Prime Curry - 2016
Prime Jordan - 1996
Prime anybody - their best year(s) before an obvious decline. Just use your eyes and make an observation or use the stat book if that’s too hard.
LeBron in 2020 was definitely still in his prime
