2 months agoU hear debates on TV “is XXX the 2nd best shooter after Steph” all the time. Never heard a debate on is XXX a better shooter than Steph. On the flip side, ppl debate if Bron is a better passer than Magic all the freaking time.
I’m not old enough to watch many Magics games, but I watch LeBron very often. I cannot say if Bron is better or worse or 70% or 80% of Magic for that matter. But I can tell u, Bron is widely considered the best passer by many in modern history and he does make insane passes on nightly basis. If you say that only 70% as good as Magic, fine, I have no problem with it, maybe passing back in the day is just that much better than today’s players.
