Lebron vs. Timmy D
who do you start your franchise if you select each player when coming into the league from the beginning of their careers, so for duncan its '97 and lebron is '03.
At first I thought this was easy, but then i thought more about it and couldnt decide, who you got?

Dwight Howard on his FT struggles:
"I just think everybody needs to stop talking about it," Howard said. "There's more to life than free throws."

Not really fair to do this until later in LeBron's career. There's a decent chance LeBron could rack up the championships, continue to put up unreal numbers, and eventually be considered a top 3 player of all time. When you see how far he went with a pretty cr*p Cavs team last year, I have a lot of faith the LeBron + good supporting cast = dynasty.
edit: I voted "i cant choose leave me alone!" btw. It's very tough because big men in general dominate the game more due to their defensive presence, but LeBron is just so ridiculously dominant on the offensive end, and we've only seen a relatively small portion of his career, so I don't think you can just automatically go with TD. I think the vast majority of people would go with MJ over TD, and LeBron has a shot at an MJ-like career.

With hindsight, Duncan. Going into the respective drafts, Lebron.
Edit: by hindsight, I mean knowing right now what Duncan's done, but not knowing what Lebron will do. It'd be stupid to compare them at the end of their careers, because then it would become obvious if Lebron has X titles. I don't think Lebron will achieve four rings in his career, but I voted for Lebron with the understanding that they're both rookies beginning their careers at the same time as we enter the draft.
