    I'm just pointing out that there are quite 
    regularly draft candidates that are touted 
    the same way, that do not end up as a Lebron 
    James.
Can you name examples? I don't think that's correct, at all. Not even Michael Jordan garnered that sort of attention in his early teen years.

Lebron had thousands of people and scouts at his games as a high school freshman and sophomore, and was was on the cover of Sports Illustrated before his junior year of high school.

He is such a freakish outlier.
