also worth noting is the MPG: career: 41.2 he's actually playing the entire game... stats per minute are always interesting to look into...

I simply cannot take somebody seriously as a player or hell even a hard worker who only makes 71% of his FREE THROWS! These should be "gimme" points. He's like the shaq of slashers. Put his ass at the line and foul him hard every time and you get in his head and he quits driving.

Lebron's shooting is a joke, a real MVP will make his shots when the game is on the line. Lebron when the game is on the line drives to the hoop because thats all he can do. Sometimes he drives to try to dish to somebody else to take the shot.... this is because he CANT shoot

I'm a pistons guy, I've watched MANY lebron games and seen him in person half a dozen times.... I'm not impressed by his game at all. He's a great playmaker and a great slasher but just not what i want to pay to go see. Give me a Kobe or T-mac at the palace anyday

Check out his amazing achievements after only 4 years in the league:

One of three players in NBA history to average at least 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in their rookie season.
Includes Oscar Robertson and Michael Jordan.

One of five players in NBA history to average over 25 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists in a season.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this six times), John Havlicek (achieved this twice), Larry Bird, and Michael Jordan.

One of four players in NBA history to average at least 31 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists in a season.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this twice), Jerry West, and Michael Jordan.

One of two players in NBA history to average at least 27 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists for three consecutive seasons.
Includes Oscar Robertson (achieved this eight times).

One of three players in NBA history to record a triple-double in their playoff debut.
Includes Johnny McCarthy and Magic Johnson.

2nd place all-time for consecutive 20-point games to start a playoff career with 19.
Behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's 27 consecutive games.

Only player in NBA history to score 25 straight points for his team in a playoff game.

Looking at the company he keeps above should settle this debate once and for all!

Anyone who says he is overrated obviously doesn't know a damn thing about Lebron or the NBA.

Oh I forgot to mention he is fun to watch and fills arena seats in cities all around the country!
