    There's more of a difference than just ball handling, but I know you'll continue to push your position, no matter how odd it seems on the surface.

    Every Heat loss was a blowout except game 1, I think the moral of the story is that LeBron James just won a title with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh playing like shit.

    If two out of the Big three play like shit in a post-season run you're not supposed to win a title. As for legacy, it's that he is the #1 scorer in elimination games all-time, and as the most efficient player in NBA playoff history. More than your precious idols.


    LeBron is a more efficient player than anyone in his prime, Malone is garbage in the post-season. Jordan is an offensive-minded player who could never dominate Bigs defensively like James.

    Kobe Bryant has a better post-season prime than Malone.

    LeBron is a much better jumpshooter than Kobe Bryant, so no I don't think Shaq even compares offensively.

    Odd choice for your sample. Before any of Jordan's SIX rings, but include LeBron's.

    Unimpressed

    Sorry buddy, but it does includes LeBron's and Jordan's first two rings. Jordan's post-season prime as well.

    You are getting worse lol.

    Too bad that's not what the chart is about. It's about playoff WS and WS/48, it is coupled together. Minutes played matter.

    Otherwise Chris Andersen should be the 2013 playoff MVP.

    Nope sorry, either your terrible example fails in WS or WS/48.

    Decent/Role players on title teams get lots of 1, Good/Lucky players get lots of 2, but only Historic players have both qualities.

    Kobe was very inefficient for a significant part of his career, I'm not surprised.

    My point isn't that Shaq and LeBron have similar skills. That's obviously untrue.

    My point is that both guys gain a massive advantage from their size and strength for their relative positions...maybe more than any other players in NBA history (aside from Wilt.) Most guys who play like Shaq were around 6'10, 240. Most guys who play like LeBron are 6'5, 210.
