I’d love to see Cam speak up and speak out more on social justice and issues plaguing our society. LeBron is absolutely a role model off the court and sets a really good example for kids.  This usually comes with the territory if you want to be a generational type of presence.

But MJ isn't the greatest athlete of this generation either :tongue:

The Lebron vs MJ argument is a stupid one. It’s not really fair because the type of basketball that is played in these eras is different. MJ played when guys could hand check the ball and just ride him. Obviously you can’t do that now. LeBron is def one of the top 5-10 players of all time.

Cam would probably need to win five or six SB to get close to Lebron

Yeah I am a big Cam fan but he ain’t gonna be anywhere near LBJ when it’s all said and done. Yay offseason threads!

Lebron isn’t in the same discussion with Dr. J, much less MJ.  And I always hated MJ.

Cam would need a couple Super Bowls,  develop a reputation of always being able to get a TD when it’s needed, and then live up to that rep in a lot of dramatic big games.  Football is different.

Lebron is a unique guy dominating the league the same way Cam is doing.  Cam has had the equivalent in teammates as Lebron did this year.  Obviously, he can't be expected to do everything, so what does it take for him to surpass Lebron as greatest athlete of this generation?

LeBron is the best NBA player of his generation. Cam is a very good QB. I love having Cam on our team but He’s not even the best QB in the league, much less the best player in the NFL.

Cam is nowhere close, heck, even Brady is not close to dominating their sport like Lebron has for the last 10 years

Doubt any football player can be that dominate.  MJ was, Tiger was.  Football too spread out

Uh, I would take Lebron with two broken hands over Dr. J

LeBron has three titles but it def feels like he has underachieved. This is a big decision he has to make in next few weeks. Spurs would be a good fit for him but if I were him I’d be hesitant to the leave the east. I think him and Gilbert have a very rocky relationship and it would not surprise me to see him bolt CLE for Miami, Lakers, or even the Spurs.

You would lose badly.

DrJ is one of the all time greats, one of the early superstars of hoops - but he is not in the same realm LeBron is. The level of basketball competition between the two isn’t really even comparable.

      Really? Wow. Sorry. Got my timeline messed up. I remember someone claiming to be Graham’s mom on the old Charlotte.com board so I guess it was a long time ago that he was here. I guess I thought he was after Kasay.

      Nick Scott may be doing better than thought.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Nick Scott has gotten his share of Huddle hate, but I came across this SI article by Zach Roberts when I was researching recently released Quandre Diggs, speculated to be a better option  (https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/2025/11/07/breaking-titans-cut-former-three-time-pro-bowler-quandre-diggs-4-destinations-ranked/3/), but getting back to Nick Scott... Now to be fair, the observation on Scott was before the Packers game, but the stats couldn't have changed that much, and may have gotten better.   "At some point during virtually every Carolina Panthers game, you have probably found yourself grumbling about Nick Scott. The much-maligned safety has seemingly been out of position a lot or has failed to make a play. The eye test has often let him down. "But that's why stats are so helpful. Sometimes, the eye test, especially for fans, is unreliable. On occasion, advanced metrics help make sense of things and lend more clarity. In the case of Scott, they make him look like a much better safety than any of us would've guessed. "In coverage, Scott has given up just 15 yards and an average of five yards per catch. That's the lowest among safeties, leading superstars like Julian Love, Talanoa Hafunga, Quandre Diggs, Kerby Joseph, Kyle Hamilton, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. "In FI%, the safety leads all his counterparts once again at 40%. Brian Branch, Camren Kinchens, and Xavier McKinney are some notable names he leads. He's been pretty excellent in pass coverage, which is crucial for the Panthers." For those wondering, "FI" means forced incompletions. Now I'm way past trying to figure out why X links aren't embedding for me like they used to, but here you go: https://x.com/dacornerman/status/1981363757608513632?t=rx_5iLjp8_y5huNcg_y1nA&s=19   Suffice it to say that Scott may not be as bad as some have led on.    https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/news/much-maligned-panthers-db-way-better-than-think
