I'm mostly with Jeebs on this one. It's like if you were sitting around with a bunch of friends in 1991 and said, "Dude, what if Karl Malone could almost dribble as good as Magic, almost pass as good as Stockton, and almost jump as high as Jordan? How insane would that be for a guy that size?" . . .

. . . .That's LeBron James.

Having a post game in one's arsenal is obviously a positive. But for this young 6'8'' 275 pound frieght train to purposely stop attacking at full speed while facing the rim doesn't seem like a wise career move right this moment.

Like Jeebs said, I'm certain the post game will become more and more of a factor as he ages. And again, it'd be nice to have for those situations where the other facets of his game aren't clicking (rare). I do not argue against a post game, but I do dispute how much he'd use it. It's tough to look at 30, 8 and 8 (including 50% shooting, 35% 3) and surmise that more needs to be done.
