I also don’t think Jordan hit his prime what, his first year in the league?

I’m not spitballing about any facts, necessarily. It’s pretty obvious throughout the thread you don’t like lebron. Just curious why but doesn’t matter either way. Opinions vary

I don't like the guy personally, no just as I couldnt stand Kobe. I do appreciate their high level of play however. I am putting things in proper perspective and high lighting differences when talking the GOATS of the NBA.

Honest question: What do you think was Sam Presti's motivation for giving away James Harden for such a paltry return? He knew the trade wouldn't help the Thunder in the short or long term, so why make it?

I was really hoping at the time we could trade Demar for Harden. I am sure Presti would have done it. |

For the NBA marketing wise, LeBron to the Philadelphia would be the best situation other than for some weird ass no way in hell reason that Anthony Davis and LeBron ended up on the same team. Embiid and Simmons playing with LeBron would raise their national profile up to more household status other than hard core sports fans. Especially Embiid. His personality with the exposure that would come with LeBron would sky rocket.

NBA just doesn't have another major TV draw right now outside of LeBron. It sucks because the talent level is pretty damn amazing right now. Just not marketing wise. NBA would take a hit just like when Jordan retired. Lot of that also occurred because Shaq and Kobe were unlikable. Especially Kobe's punk ass. Iverson came across as a thug. The other great team was the Spurs and they are the most boring ass franchise lead by a boring ass superstar in Duncan. It's a shame Shaq and Penny couldn't have been longer.
