Injured Detroit Pistons point guard Brandon Jennings is known for his opinionated social media rants, especially when it comes to talking about his all-time favorite players.
When twitter user @JohnnyNBA suggested that LeBron James will go down as a top-five player in NBA history, Jennings replied with this:
@JohnnyNBA he run too much when shit gets tough. Never just stuck it out. Like MJ. Magic. Bird. Kobe.

Jennings is entitled to his opinion just like any other fan of the game. I would have to disagree with his point though. LeBron is a product of an entirely different age in the NBA, where a player may stand to benefit tremendously by changing cities or situations. Also, part of his reasoning had to do with lack of help from teammates, so let us not forget the four players Jennings mentioned all had hall of fame teammates in their best years.
