GOAT is Jabber who was just rolling along with the most unstoppable shot ever

Leroids couldnt even beat Carlos Arroyo
Can u imagine Jordan vs Puerto Rico that day?
Arroyo would have been rushed to the hospital in a coma![]()
Not to mention Serbia, Italy and Argentina running a train on dat ass
Poor choking bas had to beg Kobe to hold his hand tbqh
No, but he chose this path. He decided he would rather focus on life after basketball and building his brand than competing for championships. The warriors broke him, tbh.
Lebron wouldn't even be considered in top 10 if he had played during 90s.
Pippen was considerd top 10 so Lebron would too
He is an exact replica of Pippen with better playmaking but poorer defense tbqh
But he would be an afterthought compared to MJ. Hes lucky he was born decades later
Jordan would have bolted if Krause didn’t build the right team around him.
Before that happened, he publicly threw the Bulls FO under the bus.
When asked about Lebron teaming up in Miami, Jordan said he wouldn’t have done it, but then he stopped and said : « ...these kids....that’s an opportunity they have today... »
Pretty sure he would have done it under a different CBA
MJ coulda built a dynasty in Vancouver
MJ: Rang + MVP + Finals MVP + 1st-Team All-NBA + 1st-Team All-Defense.
Lebron: Missed the playoffs in his first West appearance ..
I don't care what anyone says, but this massive blow to Lebron legacy/reputation ..
Yup.
In all seriousness I was genuinely shocked when I saw there are people who unironically think Lebron is even close to Jordan. They must only have watched Jordan's highlights, but even then...
Lebron would barely be considered top 10 in ACTIVE PLAYERS in the 90s, IF that.
He's not better than several people who didn't ring even, Barkley, Malone, Ewing.
I'd rather have the ball in Kobe Bryant's hands than Lebrons' at the end of a game, and I ing hate Kobe.
So glad this idiot decided to go west and to one of the most dysfunctional organizations ever, finally puts some perspective on him being in a historically weak conference for the entirety of his career.
No way Jordan takes that Cavs team to a ring over the Warriors.
No way Jordan beats an inflated 73 win team with Dray suspension/injured Curry/Barnes playing like total ass?![]()
His athleticism is still other worldly and his size + passing skills are only rivaled by Magic. He would have been thought of as a more athletic but less clutch Magic
Draymond had 32, 15, and 9 in Game 7 bro
The ring deficit is too big to make it a debate and Lebron is is going to keep staining his legacy from here on out.
Missing the playoffs in your first season out West essentially renders hollow your previous 8 straight trips in the ty East..
As far as I'm concerned, the Jordan talk is over. The latter GOAT status will stay untouchable. Lebron will only have ulative stats over MJ because of superior longevity and playing in the numbers-friendly league of today..
Lebron passed MJ a couple years ago. MJ never made 8 consecutive Finals appearances. MJ never went to a failing team and dragged them to the Finals. Lebron did that three times, Cleveland, Miami then Cleveland again. Once MJ went to another team he was pretty much Vince Carter (today's Vince Carter) and people pretend those years never existed. People also pretend MJ never missed the Finals in his career or that he didn't quit the league for 2 years.
MJ was a beast, but he never saw the Finals before or after Pippen. Lebron isn't tied to any one specific person or team, he's won rings in two cities and Finals MVP in each. It's a close race but Lebron has done enough to be considered GOAT even if he never plays another game, but for some reason people keep wanting to add another hurdle he needs to clear.
Then again, was Jordan even the best player on his own team? Strong case for Pippen, tbh.
Against what compe ion? The closest thing to a rivalry was the aged C's. And Stern had to allow Wade to break Rondo's arm to get them there. And they had to steal Ray Allen while they were at it.
Jordan never lost in the finals either. And he damn sure never had a meltdown in the finals like LeBron had against Dallas.
Lebron should've went to the Knicks or Bulls or even back to the Heat. He shot his own foot.
Dad Killer lost 14X in a row to real GOAT and was swept twice by him.
Never got outed by Dwight Howard in the playoffs though
, Jordan never saw the second round without Pippen.
