For those who never watched the NBA back when it was physical, referees allowed players to play, almost every team had a center, and 3-4 all Stars on a team, you missed a great era.

I'm not a fan of James because I think is selfish all about me style is bad for the game and bad for whatever team he's on, but I think he would have been a great player in any era. The guy is an amazing athlete. He would have figured out a away to make an impact. I just don't think he should be considered GOAT. That goes to Jordan or Abdul-Jabbar. If you take championship rings off the table and just talk about skill and impact in their generation I think Magic, Kobe, and Jerry West are as great as James. Their stats may not be quite as good, but I'm a bias Laker fan
