My Lebron hate is well do ented here. Despite all that, I can't deny greatness as it's being displayed. Lebron is the most efficient player ever. When he wants to D up on other players, he comes close to shutting them down if not he does completely. Though he had a little help from his friends, the championship won against the Spurs is one that catapults him over many players of the past. The Heat will win the championship this year and the next before finally losing after a four peat.
Anyways, Lebron will go down as the greatest ever after this year. I think his battles in the East, coupled with a hard fought seven game series with the Western Conference representative will be enough to put him over the top of MJ. Next years championship will just be an icing on the cake to one of the greatest careers ever.

If he rings four times in a row then he will be proclaimed the GOAT imo
Remember: as long as Duncan is at 4.
A couple of blowout losses without Alphabrook and now OP is hopping on the Bron bandwagon
Guess OP broke out of his meth binge and quit ing his mother so much
Miami will not ring this year.
, not even sure they come out of the East the way Pacers are balling right now.
and unfortunately the Spurs blew their load too soon tbh
Lebron already has 3 rings in my book. Heat win the le this year. LeGOAT. LeClutch.
He gave up his right to the GOAT le when he went to Miami to team up with his superfriends, tbh. And it kinda sucks, cause I was actually rooting for him to reach Jordan level.
Been a fan of his ever since he shut me up real ing good his first game. lol I thought Melo was the "more" sure thing back then, especially coming off his le at Syracuse.
Oh well, such is life.
He HAD to leave
He didnt even have a Pippen-level teammate, just a bunch of scrubs around him
Then they signed a washed up Shaq
He had to go
true. and he's not as ty a person as MJ and has much better court vision etc....but the Decision will stain his legacy. He just isn't as alpha as MJ. He needed Wade to be the older brother type.
I just don't see him surpassing MJ in terms of status, though I think Lebron will come close.
I think Lebron is Alpha
Not as much as MJ , but still.
MJ was more Alpha because he is a horrible psychopath TBH, Lebron isn't a ty person like MJ as you said
He took a D-League team to the NBA Finals in 2007
he's gotten more alpha lately, chimping out on Chalmers, but I don't think he's naturally Alpha like MJ. MJ is top dawg to the point of being a bully, which I don't think is a good thing but it worked for those teams.
serious question, how do you compare MJ to Lebron on the PED scale? you think Lebron takes a lot and what about MJ? I never saw any signs with MJ but granted I was a kid.
By the media? It's inevitable.
By true NBA fans? Never.
and btw, he is not the most dominant player ever. MJ, and Magic beat him.
Dude, he got drafted by his "home" team. Stuff of legends, tbh. Like I said, if he was truly GOAT, players would have gone to him and not the other way around. I was rooting for the er. He seems like a really nice guy and all that , maybe it was just too perfect. But yeah, just my humble opinion.
Meh Lebron gets ted on because he joins Wade and the Heat
OK, then how come nobody has criticized Tragic Johnson ?
He said he would play 1 more year in college if the Bulls drafted him instead of the Lakers (coin toss), because he wanted to play with Kareem and the Lakers![]()

But it's ok, it's Magic, he is a big kid and has AIDS, so he gets a pass
As for MJ, after "The Decision", he said that he wouldnt have done it, but hen paused and said : "but those kids today, they have opportunities we didn't have"
So maybe if it was possible back then, he would have bolted after a few seasons
Probably because he helped the Lakers win a championship as a rookie without the teams best player?
And as a bonus, he led them for a few more before Ebola got the best of him.
Magic was great. And yeah pulled some shady but he still backed his up.
I'm not going to argue against your other argument, because you just sound like an asshole. lol
Lebron seriously had an opportunity to reach levels of epicness that would have rivaled Jordan. Instead, he went beta and joined the Heat. This cannot be argued.
Dude, I was pissed. I watched Jordan in the 90s and I thought Lebron had a chance to reach him in the GOAT conversation, but in my opinion, he threw it away for his friends. Which is honorable, in some way, but his entourage kinda screwed him.
Lol be will not pass GOAT with multiple losses to the got D league Nyets lmfao
not even sure if his better then the guy who loves s on the fakers team...
whatever bron can do i think magic could do besides shooting the 3 or good efficiency, but nobody cares about efficiency since 2pts is 2pts no matter how you score it
not sure why do you bring the he is not a ty person as an argument for goat status
Miami is coasting, Indiana is playing like their lives are on the line
Depends on what he does this offseason. If he jumps ship to play with other stars, it will look really bad. If he sticks with Miami and can carry them after Wade and Bosh have lost all usefulness, then GOAT status is inevitable. Or if he goes back home to Cleveland and carries that mess of a team to a couple of rings.
Even if he isn't GOAT yet, for sheer talent/ability/unstoppableness I'll take Prime LeBron over anybody in basketball history. Jordan can't compete with LeBron's physical dominance, even if he is more alpha and has more "killer instinct". Jordan vs LeBron one-on-one would be a bloodbath, Jordan isn't nearly strong enough to handle LeBron.
