The topic of LeBron James' basketball skills has become a hotly debated focus in recent days. Earlier today, two Celtics legends, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, came to his defense. Pierce bluntly stated that James certainly has skills, while Allen claimed that James doesn't even need skills.


The Controversy Stemmed from James' Own Words

The incident originated from James' remarks in a podcast: "I keep seeing a situation where when I scroll through social media, people always say LeBron has no bag. I think to myself, LeBron has no skills? I've scored over 50 billion points!" In his career, James has totaled 50,473 points, including 42,184 in the regular season and 8,289 in the playoffs.

Paul Pierce's Defense: Skills Beyond Fancy Moves

Paul Pierce said: "Listen, LeBron has skills. You can't score 50,000 points without knowing how to play. If 'skills' mean between-the-legs dribbles into behind-the-back moves, crossovers into step-back threes, and you go, 'Oh, he has skills!' I know many skilled kids who never made the league—they can't score but have flashy moves. Can he play? Yes. Can he put the ball in the basket? Of course. This is just to pander to this generation. That's why I say James Harden has influenced this generation more than LeBron, because they worship fancy dribbles. Internet influencers know how to do those moves to attract attention. So that's the case, and I don't think LeBron should care about this."

Ray Allen's Perspective: Power Over Skills

Ray Allen joined the discussion, stating: "LeBron has always been an unstoppable force. If you send a big man to guard him, he can easily blow past the opponent. If you use a smaller defender, they can't compete with his size. So, LeBron never even needed to have skills."
