, please... He is no MJ.
I thought this was common knowledge.
While Lebron is the most perfect physical basketball specimen, MJ was the greatest compe or ever. on 5-5 I pick MJ's team over Lebron's team all day everyday
Maybe if Lebron quits basketball, comes back and gets 6 rings in a row, maybe then maybe he can even be in the same conversation
3, 2, 1 before some tool comes in with some #s to say Lebron is better
OP using vulgar language in thread. Should be banned, imho.
Lebron forfeited any potential for surpassing Jordan's career by choking in 2011, but his peak is on the same level, tbh..I'd take '91 Jordan over Lebron, but it's close..
But in all seriousness Lebron is unbelievable and will be a top 2 player when it's all said and done imo. Yea he choked pretty bad in 2011 but he'll have 3 or 4 rings before he retires to make up for it.
Jordan, Magic and Bird won on their own? That's news to me. LeBron is not better than Jordan but you Jordan suckers obviously don't have a clue. Scottie, Rodman etc..
One thing we know for sure, they're both better than Kobe..
ESPN has been hyping this for an entire year.
LeBron is better right now but not career wise.
At the end, I think it will be close.
We should be happy to even see a guy that could achieve such feat.
5 Lebron vs 5 Jordan? Thats not the correct question.
this is the way i see it too
Love how people say this as if Jordan didn't have his fair share of early-career chokejobs, tbh....
Labrick going to Miami closed that discussion! Bottom line point blank. He's pose to be so great, but have allstars all around him.
don't see how leaving a ty franchise (the cavs) for a winning team hurts bron's legend tbh. shaq played on 6 different teams throughout his career and no one can ever doubt he's one of the greatest of all time. not everyone has the bliss to start his career on a great franchise tbh
One ring ain't enough to get you into the GOAT discussion. Lebron has the potential to be there when all is said and done though. He's reached the mountain top as the best player in the league right now. Let's see what he does with it the next few years.
Yeah that's why Magic didnt want to be drafted by the Bulls, but instead by the Lakers
If the Bulls drafted him, he said he would skip the draft
" Because I want to play with the Lakers and play with Kareem so it will be easy to win championships"
In order to surpass Jordan, you would have to win 7 rings and be undefeated in the Finals. I just can't put anyone who has lost in the finals past him. Lebron will never be close to MJ, shame on you s for saying he will ever come close. He had to run to South Beach and unite with his rival to win, that is pathetic. When all is said and done, MJ will be #1
re ed
at least lebron never got beat in the 1st round. MJ got beat and swept multiple times in the 1st round alone
Saying Lebron can not suprass MJ because he lost in the Finals is nonsense. You're telling me if he won 4-6 straight les, averaged a triple double over an entire season, and won several MVPs in a row he wouldn't be up there with MJ or in front of him? Sounds like blind MJ fanboyism to me. To many people put him on this unattainable pedestal.
if mj and lebron switched bodies lebron would have 9+ rings imo
Lol please list these... He never lost a series with hca and/or never had anything as close to as bad of a series as Lebron had in the 2011 NBA Finals.
According to MJ himself...: "Kobe is the only player worthy of comparison to me" - MJ
end of story
Jordan choked against the Magic in '95, lost in the first round multiple times, and it took him years to get past Boston and Detroit.... if the media in the '80s and early '90s was anything like today's era, he'd have been written off as a playoff choker long before 1991, tbh....
Don't get me wrong, he's still the GOAT, but his career has grown into an outright myth.... people act like he never lost in the playoffs, tbh....
