LeBron James recently paid Giannis Antetokounmpo a huge compliment, saying he would have dominated past eras of basketball, specifically the 1970s. While he was flattered, Antetokounmpo wasn't sure that was a fair comparison.

The story of the NBA over the past decade is written by a handful of elite players who have changed the course of the sport in their own unique way. LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant are the veterans who continue to dominate and remain the ones who must pass on the torch.

LeBron James said on "The Pat McAfee Show" that had Giannis Antetokounmpo played in the 1970s, he would've averaged a boatload of points.
