Some faults with your logic - you are basing "making others better" on the play of a Hall of Famer (hakeem) - if you set standards that high, most if not all of the guys YOU RANK HIGHER could be classified as "not making team mates better as well"
Milos, It's wrong to assume one cannot be physically mature at age 19. Lebron does not seem to have much room to grow physically anymore. He's already reached peak in that aspect. Mentally, yes. He still have lots of potential. Also no matter how you want to say it, a 35-47 team in the Eastern conference with good talent is a very BAD team. Lebron still has a lot to improve to make his team better to compare him to the likes of Magic and Bird.
Did all of you forget about the 1 Guy who shut down KOBE in the Championship.....Tayshaun Prince. He should definitely be on that list. I would pick defense before Offense any day.
You have to remember that many of the role players on the Lakers were either injured or over the hill.They were playing shorthanded.
