Lebron in college

[Lugnutz 10+ year member]

Okay well I was talkin to some friends and we thought about this..what if Lebron as of right now was put on some college team....say some mid major like Davidson...would he bring them a national championship?

i pretty sure the OP ment if he didnt forego college and go straight to the league....

I'm pretty sure the OP is retarded.

I can say that I dont follow NBA to closely until the playoffs..... The NBA is just not what it used to be..... The players whine and whine and whine some more.....

They travel, double dribble, step out of bounds... I can go on all night.... The refs SEE it and DONT call it... that is not basketball, that is a montrosity to the sport!

And for those who are gonna say I dont know basketball well enough, well here is a lil info...

I'm 5'10 about 180, 46" verticle and I was invited to the Falcon Nationals. And for those who dont know what that is. That is where they do a lot of selection for the Mcdonalds Players, and yes I did start on team A Board 3 as the point guard. I talked to a lot of recruiters and even the staff that does part of the selection... so im no "wannabee"

No I did not make Mcdonalds.... but anyone who is an avid athlete and excels at it knows not only how to play basketball but what to watch for and not only see who is good, but can feel who is good.

So I say again, I watched shaq in college... and he was just big.... same in the NBA.... somebody with less than 40% Free throws and below 70% in the lane shot percentage when they 7+ and 2 feet from the basket and can only make 2 out of 5 shots.... give me a break

there were many big men the same size, if not bigger than shaq, but none put up his numbers. Once again 24 and 14 as a rookie. Dwight Howard isn't even averaging that now. Shaq also wasn't as wide out of college. Do you have any idea how tough shooting a basketball is when your hands engulf the entire ball? Try shooting a softball into a hoop, let alone a hoop only two times the size of that softball. You think its just a coincidence that most big guys cant shoot from the line?

ad on top of that last post that its pretty tough to shoot a ball that is 1/300th of your weight. Imagine a man his strength having to put touch on a ball that only weighs 20oz's

Shaq has one of the better FG% in history, not too mention he is always mauled when he has the ball in the low post. He is also better than 40% at the FT line.

40%? anything lower than 70 is horrible //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Some peope are too ingorant to talk to.

x2 on everything what method said.

And demon, for playing basketball, you sure don't know how to talk it. That is a given. Have you even watched shaq shoot a foul shot? The doods hands wrap around the ball.

And who cares about his FT %. Dood was a beast down low.......when he was smaller and bigger. Didn't matter.

Go learn!
