Its absolutely incredible to me how good LeBron is considering how weak his bag is. Just insane. He took over the game at the end today.
Id argue that his bag is not weak at all but not worth the effort.
You can choose to not argue if you want, but his bag is beyond weak. He has no signature move. His dribbling is mediocre at best. His footwork isnt anything to write home about. His back to the basket post up game is pathetic for a guy of his size. His bag is BEYOND limited.
But with that being said, he might be the most athletic player in sports history. He is lightning fast for someone his size. People his size should not be able to move as fast as he does. His basketball intelligence is second to none.
There are many reasons why Lebron is as incredible a player as he is. His bag is certainly not one of them.
Imo those are not the only things needed to have a "bag"
Plus - not having a signature move but averaging 25+ on high efficiency also means a player can score in variety of ways and doesn't need to rely on one move. Dont think Curry has a signature move - and I'd say he has plenty of bag.
Gonna disagree on dribbling. Agree on back to basket moves - or lack thereof.

Everyone except Michael Jordan:
"I always take my opponent seriously. I never underestimate anyone."
Ruthless, he did whatever it took not just to win, but destroy #MJMondays 🐐 pic.twitter.com/PJAcjqGFIz
…then we also have this clownery.
half the things about this guy is just fake or made up
the only clownery here is you searching the depths of NBA twitter for an account with 7K followers posting a hearsay quote from Branford Marsalis that triggers you.
Marsalis: I saw a lot of the guys around the hotel. I saw Jordan sitting watching Angola on tape, just staring, looking for weaknesses. I said, "I don't even want to bother you, but why are you watching this game?" And he said, "I always take my opponent seriously. I never underestimate anyone." It wasn't lost on me that he was the only guy watching the game.

No one is saying he's not amazing.
