What do you mean? Are you saying people are not allowed to take 3 or 4 steps? :o Even if it's for a dunk that could be in the highlights?

QFT.

Dude is arrogant like a mofo. Never liked him in Cleveland, don't really like him now. With that said, I'm still glad he chose to come to Miami and make us contenders for the next 5+ years. 8-)

well if you play ball that should be your mentality, doesn't matter if it's true or not

At times Deng did great Job on him with pretty amazing defense. I don't like LeBron but he's good, he is still explosive but his jumper is way better, he might be falling in love with 3pt lately though, but that's a problem for many guys who get better at shooting, you know why drive hard if you can chill at the three point line.

There are MANY players (esp. swingmen) in the history of the league that in their prime could say the same thing (MJ, Kobe, Iverson, Drexler, VC, Dominque, Barkley, Baylor, King, Richmond, Isiah, T-Mac, Dr. J, etc, etc, heck even Marbury). You put these elite ballers on a court one-on-one and they will be a handful....unfortunately for LeBron this is a team game so it doesn't matter if Marion or God himself can't stop you one-on-one - team defense matters most, all the defender has to do is slow you down & force you into the strength of their defense....whatever LeBron is saying is just ego stroking. Again, tons of guys in the history of the league are almost unguardable one-on-one, that's why they are in the freakin' NBA.

There have been many many players in the NBA that have said the exact same thing. And it's true. It's only the whiners that bitch about everything that leBron says that are having an issue with it.

It's really a shame that the game isn't played 1 on 1 though or LeBron would already have 5 or 6 championships. /green

Can't disagree with this though. Nothing new. Now stop jacking up those 23 foot 3-pointers and start using your strength/athleticism to your advantage.

Lebron's the only guy who can be wrong while being completely right.

Please noone can stop L James one on one. Because when 1 guys face up defending him and LeBron beats him but doesnt score inside, its not because of the guy on him, its because 4 guys immediately run to LeBron as soon as even threatens to attack the basket. If you watch its usually before he even moves.

Pretty sure Brian Scalabrine would dominate that league though.

"...scratch that. I meant to say anyone can defend me on-one-one. Also, just wanted to throw in there that I will never be anywhere near as good as Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant or even Derrick Rose, no matter what. Oh yeah, and Wade is the alpha dog, and I'm kind of like Pippen Lite, similar but not quite as good."

I think that would do it for most people.
