No way he even reaches 6000 points. He would no score in the pole vault and the 1500, 110 hurdles, and 400 would be laughable. He also wouldn't crack 11 in the 100. He wouldn't be able to jump higher than his own height in the HJ. 1 year is not much time to master skill/technique on 10 different events.
No one will ever be able to disprove anything I said.
Lighten up man.... the whole exercise is a hypothetical.

His shoulder is at the rim...he has crazy hope for being 6'8 and 270 pounds. There is no doubt he can high jump 7' and LJ at least 25'

There was a high school kid I coached that had a 48 inch vertical off of two feet. He was 5'6 and literally could walk up and dunk it with two hands.
He couldn't HJ higher than 5'3. There is no telling what Lebron could jump based off his "hops." There are plenty of dudes that have Lebron type ups and never amount to jumping over 6'6, regardless of height.
And LJ is a whole different ballgame. That requires 10.xx speed.
While I think Lebron is a damn good athlete, no way would he even be close to world class in one year. I doubt he would make NCAA's after one year.
He should stick with basketball . . . he seems to be pretty good at it.

First of all, comparing the closing speed of Bekele who has already run a considerable distance to the all out 400m speed of LeBron is not comparing apples to apples. Furthermore, we're not talking about Lebron right off the court, he would have a years worth of 400m training in him and would probably be a little slimmer than 260.
Second of all, nobody is saying he's running "75s for 4 laps."
That my friend, is a 5 minute mile, which is about a 4:43 1500. Nobody has claimed he would be able to run a 4:43 1500.
Do you honestly believe Lebron is not coordinated enough to run or throw? Have you ever played basketball? Probably not. Go play basketball, then go watch Lebron in action and you will see how incredibly coordinated he is.
no fucck head I think your retarded. It doesnt matter how much Bekele ran before the last lap...Lebron is never staying with him when hes running 51 or 52...it wouldnt even be close... that huge frame running at that speeds doesnt even make sense. and no he isnt coordinated on the track. stop using his basketball abilities as proof for what he can do on the track....there two different sports

Um, you guys realize how slow 11 for 100 and 50 for the 400 really are... right? We're talking about possibly the greatest high school athlete ever here, and at least since Wilt. For a little perspective, LeBron's high school games were available for $7.95 on pay per view. And you really think he can't break 11 in 100? Really?
You think after a year that this guy - with his body control for finishing layups with people like Joakim Noah hanging all over him - can't figure out at least a rudimentary spin move? And that the best jumper in a game of jumpers with the same kind of body control would be completely flummoxed by a 30 year old high jump technique?
This thread is making distance runners sound like a bunch of defensive ultramarathoners.
If LeBron trained for several years I'd still need 2000 points since LBJ would sprain his vagina in day one and limp around holding his vagina and wincing in pain after that with every move he makes, inlcuding rolling around on the ground

he'd be on world record pace until the 1500, when his 10:00+ would put him at the level of a division 2 decathlete
Wilt Chamberlain was 7'1" and 275. In HIGH SCHOOL Wilt did the high jump in 6'6" ran the 440 in 49.0 and the 880 in 158.3 and threw the shot 53'4".
Granted they are different people but if Lebron trained for a year he would be lighter than 260.
12 seconds in the 100 would be a jog for him
way faster than 56
Way faster than a 5:30 for a 1500
A PV of 10ft? Seriously, there were multiple girls on my high school team who could get 10 ft.
That being said there is absolutely no way he could beat clay.
I don't think he could Pole Vault anyways. Do they even make poles for people that heavy? I have never even seen a pole for people over 200 lbs.
LeBron is a basketball player, AKA a big, lumbering clod
Sure, Wilt was a high jumper in college, but was way skinnier.
LeBron couldn't run sub 5:00 1500m to save his life
and would need two poles strapped together to get
his weight over 10' in the pole vault.
Doubtful he could fling his body 20' in the long jump
and even with a year of "technique" training still
might only run 16 or 17 seconds for 110HH.
His best event would be the shot,
2nd best the high jump...I would venture a guess 6'6".
I think one thing to take into account: a big part of what makes lebron such a good basketball player is that he is an absolutely phenomenal athlete FOR HIS SIZE. there are people in the nba who are much faster than lebron and can jump higher/farther.
