Jacques Dominique Wilkins (born January 12, 1960) is a retired American professional basketball player who primarily played for the Atlanta Hawks of the NBA. Wilkins was a nine-time NBA All-Star, and one of the best dunkers in NBA history, earning the nickname "The Human Highlight Film."[1] In 2006, Wilkins was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame
google scottie pippen! and tell me lebrons defense is near pippens.. all those dunks lebron does pippen did on a regular basis.. pippen avearge 7 assist many times .. if pippen was on a team of his own he would have lebrons stats easily but he played with mj so mj eat the ball more thats all.. pippen had amazing defense compared to lebron... jason terry destroyed lebron the last four games i man destroy while marion scored everytime on lebron .. admit it guys lebron isnt as good as we say
@champ84able Kobe did pretty much all the stuff LeBron did in highschool, if not more. But the media didn't start riding Kobe's dick at age 15. That's the only problem with LeBron. He's overhyped at this point. Sure he has talent, but when commentators try comparing him to Jordan or Magic I nearly puke. People have forgotten what it was like to see players like that. They're the reason why the NBA is where amazing HAPPENED.
@ProperPiff LeBron is more athletically gifted than Kobe ever was, so it makes sense. Bron had the abilities of an NBA SF in high school, and he was still raw. Everyone saw that he had the potential to be greatest of all time. Kobe had to prove that he had the skills to excel in the leage; Bron was a sure thing.
Bron is compared to the greats cuz nobody else has had his combo of gifts and his work ethic. LeBron is a lot of things, and he has his weaknesses, but he is more than just raw talent.
@stevechen1991 Seriously do you even follow basketball? Pippin played WITHOUT Jordan in 1994 (Pippens prime) and didnt average anywhere close to what Jordan did. Pippen is great but if you think he is as good as MJ you should just kill yourself
@champ84able Pippin DID play without Jordan in 94 (pippins prime) and his stats were not even close to Lebrons. Do you even watch basketball? Pippin does have better D then Lebron though. Lebron isnt as good as his fans say but he is way better then morons like you say
@Psych0tic22 lol, you're horrible lol, but I kinda see where you're coming from. As a player, I would compare Lebron's game to a combination of Dominique's scoring ability, Magic Johnson's overall play with Scottie Pippens defense. As much as some hate to admit it. Lebron's probably one of the top 10 most talented athlete's ever to be drafted into the NBA. I don't think he was anything like Jordan except for his being 23 with the Cav's. Being from Atlanta though, Lebron is MagicNiquePip.
@LittlJohn I was just yanking your chain but as an all around player, LeBron definitely surpasses Nique in terms of his outside shot, passing ability, speed, and many more. But lets face it, no one in the history of the NBA can yam it like Wilkins with ferocious power and finesse.
@Psych0tic22 Lebron can lol, Dominque had a very good game, could knock down three's when he needed to, in fact at one time in his career he had even made his three point game almost rival Jordan, he wasn't no Reggie Miller, but he was decent. The way Dominque plays, cause for a guy 6'9" which is around Lebron's height, he was not only diesel but had decent speed. Dominque's carbon copy might be Josh Smith or Blake Griffin, but Lebron is the upgrade. He can dunk just as hard & his game is better
@nvrsurrender Lebron's shot is better, he's faster and stronger. Lebron is a modern day Dominque Wilkins especially considering his past situation. Cleveland is basically a watered down version of the 80-90 Hawks and Dominique was Atlanta's hope, just like Lebron was for Cleveland
no really good player but his 3rd dunk hes only the unique nba guy that could do that
