This reminds me, if lockout continues I'm going to roll out X's re-drafts version 2.0. I plan on using different methodology so keen to see if it changes the result somewhat (or not at all).

Thankfully there was a so-called intelligent person who offered challenges to the prior methodology back then.

Personally, I'd ignore him. But getting to add in the 06-08/09 drafts will be worth it anyway.

What? Proof or ban?
So you're saying that Derek Fisher is a great player and LeBron is not?
GTFO!

The former team (Walker-Rose-Pedja-Anderson-Fisher) would vaporize the latter team off the face of the earth. They have gobs of rings, the latter team has one ring combined. Anyone who doesn't have a ring is worthless especially compared to those who won rings.

Real basketball fans know this, anyone with a ring is better than anyone without one automatically.

Learn about the game already, maybe you could try watching it to start.

LMAO, must go into hardwood classics. post of the year. I'm making this my sig!

x-uNdErRaTeD-z of course im not saying Peja is better than LeQuit but the fact that LeQuit is a 2 time MVP you would expect him to have a couple rings by now..

If you didn't notice Lebron is still young and has spent all his career with Cavaliers. He was the sole reason why miserable Cavaliers were so great and the reason how the Heat got to the Finals this year. He should have player little more aggressive in the Finals but that still doesn't negate those GREAT stats he's posted all his career long. Tell me who comes close to his stats other than Michael Jordan. Individually, he's one of the greatest ever. Period. Not Kobe, Wade, or anyone else in post-MJ era comes close to Lebron. In the end, it's a team sport. Lebron can't win it all by himself, but definitely easy to take all the blames since he's been the best in the league so many years. But stats wise and accomplishment wise, he's definitely on another level. Ring talk is a joke and we won't be talking about it in a few years. But I assume people will still taunt how he needed Wade and Bosh to win it, which is stupid but inevitable. :shake:

I am inclined to believe vice versa that Lebron's draft class is better than 96 despite the less rings so far. Lebron and Wade in my opinion are better players than anybody from that class to begin with. Yes, I'm rating Wade higher than Kobe due to better efficiency rating throughout careers.

6 if you include Jason Kapono as well, since he was on that Miami team with D-Wade.

Did Kapono believe that he's an athletic swingman that could take more than 3 dribbles without travelling like he did on the Raptors too?
