A league of his own?
In the modern era post Magic/Larry. With Salary Caps and free agency it is an entirely different NBA than the one Bill Russel played in.

Sure the NBA has changed... but you can't hand pick which eras you can compare and which ones you can't. When Jordan played zone defenses were illegal and hand checking was prevalent. So LeBron is playing in a completely different NBA than Jordan played in.
You're ruining your own argument.
Russell played during the civil war so Birdy's point still stands. Besides we know its not about Russell. It's more about Lebron doing something the GOAT never did, which is win 4 in a row(though I believe mj could have went 8 straight, very speculative though).
Actually he didn't originally dismiss Bill Russel. Reread Birdys post. He completely ignored Bill Russel as if he didnt exist. Thats embarrassing.
Anyone that wants Lebron back needs to start rooting against the Heat.
