      Agreed, people need to stop overlooking the fact that he's 4th all time in assists. The fact that he's the all time leading scorer and is also one of the greatest passers is truly incredible and it's something we've never seen before.

You can never say there was a moment when MJ was afraid, that’s why I can’t take anyone seriously that has LBJ over Mike. Took LeBron until year 8 to really develop that post game that he desperately needed to take advantage of mismatches and provide stability to the offense when the games slowed down.

      I say this as someone with no love for Booker...
      Context matters.
      When you have a training camp like that, you generally have a few actual NBA players, some G League players, and some college place-fillers. These aren't real games.
      In that context, there are 2 points to make.
      1. If you allow doubling on the NBA players, it's always going to come from from a guy who's defending a weak player. Therefore, you are going to end up with a college player wide open over and over and the NBA players don't get a chance to work out their games... and like it or not, the NBA players' development IS the priority in those games. The G Leage and college players are basically spectators. It's an honor for them to be there and they understand that what the NBA players say goes.
      2. Like I said, the NBA players are the priority... and you don't know what Devon was working on that day. He's a dynamic offensive player for a reason... he's always adding moves options and counters to his bag.
      So he's there probably trying to get some live reps in for working on a scoring option in a spot an analyst has noticed he tends to get space, right? Well, he's drilled it to death and he wants to get some live reps in... get a better idea of how it flows with his counters.
      And what happens? Some college kid doubles on him so he has to pass out of the double... to another college kid.
      If you're an NBA player, you've gotta get your reps in sometime. You go from drill training to drill training with defense props to trying it in-game to working out your reaction package and then FINALLY, after you feel that you can execute the move at any time comfortably, you just play regular live ball and incorporate the move into your full toolset.
      Booker's little viral moment might be nothing more than these guys not understanding that Book was working some sh!t out still.
      Like he said, he can pass out of doubles anytime in the NBA. This is an NBA practice. The NBA players make the rules. Don't like it? Don't come.

    the most subtly impressive part of lebron's game has always been his ability to get an ordinary pass off just a TINY bit more crisply, a TINY bit more accurately with just a TINY bit better timing than anyone else. I've seen it a thousand times. He has the ball at the top of the key and all of a sudden the ball is zipping to the wing, and it starts a chain reaction of defensive breakdown where he ends up with a hockey assist, or even an assist of an assist of an assist. Obviously these passes don't show in the stats so you gotta see it yourself. All this MJ vs Lebron talk and I've never heard a word from the Lebron camp about his ability to start an offense in this non-statistical way. So strange cause i've seen it for 21 years now

    Watching this podcast forces me to desensitize myself from the typical sports media shows . I'm not used to someone not stating their general opinions at the top of their lungs. This is pure basketball talk. I notice how Stephen A can't really go at this podcast the way he wants to because he likely doesn't understand most of what JJ and Lebron is talking about. You have to raise the level of basketball content and this podcast is an honest attempt at it.

    Love this exchange and analysis. Not a JJ fan on other shows, but when he is facing someone he knows is better as a player, he shows respect -
    And comes off as a smart humble likeabke athlete,
    And not an Ivy League Prick.

    True talk right here. Lots of kids can't make a read if you rush a double team.

      LeBron telling everyone basketball isn't 1v1 as his entire game is predicated on 1v1 is actually absurd.

    I hope they do an episode where they sit down and analyze a game play by play.

      ???? You are joking right? Jordan used to call out the other team plays as they were setting up. (he won 3 all nba defensive players award, bro) The only thing that has changed is the terminology and social media to talk about basketball plays means he has a less IQ??? Crazy.
