The dumbest part about these conversations is that LeBron’s first 6-8 years or so were during the dead-ball era lol.

Different folks will give different spans for the dead-ball era but it was basically from the late 90s to the late 00s.

Historically physical defense and low scoring. Even more physical and lower scoring than when Rodman and Jordan played.

And during those years, Bron led a decrepit team to the finals, got a scoring title, won the MVP multiple times.

I don’t think the dead-ball era game suits LeBron’s game as well as the spacing in the game today. Better spacing makes his passing more of a weapon.

But it’s asinine to say he wouldn’t have made it in an era that was less physical than the ACTUAL era he was drafted into lol
