Lebron

Lebron is the best ballhoger, but Kobe is the best producer while ballhogging.

How are either a ball hog?

both pass when it's needed.. especially LeBron. Hell LeBron has said it many times he would rather have a 15 pt, 15 assist game over a 40 pt, 3 assist game any day of the week.

Lebron is a ball hog, watch the playoffs, he screwed up the offense for holding the ball too long, they even show it on ESPN.

Kobe isn't a ball hog, but what i'm saying if he hogged the ball for the whole game, he'd produce better numbers than Lebron.

lebron shoots a higher percentage. explain.

um i wasnt saying kobe is a ballhog i was just testing if i could write Kobe and rhat it was cemsored like cbi said lols

It is hard to take FG% into play because Lebrons shooting FG% is significantly lower than his driving to the rim FG%.

Whereas Kobe is more all around, his FG% is consistent through everything plus they play two different positions

Neither Kobe or Lebron are ballhogs. Kobe used to ballhog a lot, but not anymore. I don't really think Lebron ever did.

I dunno about in NBA history, but Nate Robinson and Larry Hughes pop out to me the most. Around two seasons ago, unfortuantly I will have to say Carmelo Anthony.

Or Allen Iverson in his 76er days..

AI has always averaged a lot of assists.

Look at his ball usage back in his 76er days, he always had the ball in his hands..

Plus even if you cut his pts in half, he'd still have more pts than assists.

Same with Kobe, Lebron, and Wade.

Ben Gordon

true but thats coz the 76ers pretty much sucked. thats like saying

Wade averaged 30 PPG last season Cut tat in half. Its 15. Wade averaged less assists.

So does that mean Wade is a ballhog? No

thats same for every single player in the nba almost. Look at CP3, he averages wat 20 something points a game. he averages 11+ apg so even CP3 just barely has higher assist numbers than half his points

ur point is not vaild........

yes but he still shoots a better pecentage overall. id rather have him hitting 50% of all shots than 40 some. and lebrons 3 point percentage is only about 1% lower than kobe's

I was just trying to make a reasonable example, Everyone knows that AI in his 76er days was a ballhog.

not true.

pure ball hogs cant lead their team to the finals.

him holding the ball was necessity, not ball hogging

No it wasn't he could have not held the ball and the team still could have played, they gave him the ball so he could score, he ball hogged with the permission of his team.

If AI didn't "ballhog" the 76ers would never have made the Finals. They were a one man team. He barely even ha a legitimate second option.
