@@Tcrror Not a chance, LeBron would have been missing free throws, trying to pass to someone else to make the big shot (if it was close enough) an playing no defense. While both MJ an Bird would have been killing. You don't know the old players but you should, it's all out there to educate yourself. MJ & Bird were killers on the court, straight killers. Something LeBron has never been nor ever will be. You really need to go watch their film, they were incredible and incredible when it mattered most. Bird would literally tell the other team exactly what was going to happen, where the pass was coming from, what he was going to do an then he'd do it. An he did that over an over an over. Someone would say something to MJ that he didn't like an a fire was started an he'd torch them until they knew to never talk to him like that again. That too happened over and over and over. It's not close, those two were killers, something LeBron has never been. He's extremely talented but doesn't have the mind they did. It's literally not close. Just go look up their highlights then watch some full games. They were truly incredible.

You said people need to say it? LeBron is the GOAT. There, I said it. Most talented all around player to ever play the game, accolades aside. Statistically better in every category than Jordan (I'm talking individual stats). It is a debate, because there are many good reasons to put LeBron at the very top. 8 straight Finals appearances with 8 mediocre to bad teams. Coming back from 3-1 in the Finals against the greatest regular season team of all time. All time leading scorer. Top 10 in about every major statistical category. Can play and has played every position on the court at a high level, something Jordan could not do. The fastest, most athletic 6'8", 250 pound human the world has ever seen. Still playing at a superstar level at 39 years old, something literally nobody, not Jordan, not Kareem, nobody has ever done before.

Michael couldn't get to the rim as freely as Lebron can today, period, but he still averaged well above 30pts even though the majority of the lanes were closed. He was going to the basket regardless, not just facilitate or sit out on the perimeter and shoot 3's. He wanted you to think that whatever you do, I'm going to overcome that challenge. He wanted to break you down mentally as well as physically, and he did it without fearing the consequences. Everybody was in awe, including management, coaches, and players alike. He's the most feared man in the NBA to date and could not be dethroned once he became a champion. He was unstoppable, then unbeatable. ... and all in just 13 years.

This is apples and oranges. I'm older, seen both, huge fan of both. It's just different. Also, the argument is emotional which allows for non-representative and biased thinking like finals records. That stat is useless. Why not conference finals stats then? Or first round? You write "Once he became King", thereby ignoring what happened before. In contrast, a whole slew of people claimed that LeBron could never be the GOAT before he even won his first championship. Talk about being emotional and and premature. Furthermore, it is incorrect. He couldn't stay in the league because of whatever, and he was certainly beatable while playing for the Wizards. Also, absurd as it may sound, LeBron is still active, and everyone needs to stop the debate. You cannot compare a retiree with an active player, nor can you compare 13 with 20 career years. Average stats will favor the shorter career, but overall stats will favor the longer career. This incommensurability makes the debate pointless. Together, with Kareem, MJ and LeBron are the three players that can claim the title depending on perspective. Why can't we just enjoy and celebrate their fantastic accomplishments?

All I know from being a 10 year old starting to watch the NBA on my own because to me, what LeBron James is to so many today, to us in Michigan, that was Magic Johnson. The NBA was a BIG MAN'S GAME all my life, until MJ came along. They weren't talking about him in the media as if he was a "King" he wasn't one to "Witness" he was from my memory a very good player, on a terrible Bulls team that was probably going to be disappointed because this was a team game and no 1 guy is going to make the difference and they didn't have a great Big Man.

You want to talk about having NOBODY on your team, ‘84 Bulls was that definition. Orlando Woolridge was Jordan’s “second” on the team. Jordan led his team on Points, Assists, steals AND total rebounds. Everything ran through MJ. He willed his team into the playoffs.

GOAT means, and forgive me for using this silly example the ESPN pundits themselves have said, but it means the ONE MAN u want to put the ball in his hands to save your LIFE. "The aliens come down and u need to save humanity in a bball game?," Well u JUST CAN'T say anyone but Jordan, except maybe Bird. That's it. And THAT is what GOAT means. GREATESTTTT... U wanna understand GOAT? I'm not even a hockey guy,,but go look at Gretzky, and EVERYONE ELSE. Thats all ill say. THAT is what great means, and it's not even about it the rest of the hockey players ain't as good as other sports' GOAT candidates. It's just about the level of what GOAT iS above all else

Malone was an all-time playoff choker and Stockton could not dribble or drive consistently to the basket with his left hand (watch the 87 and 88 WCSF vs the Lakers). Gary Payton had back-to-back 13-point games in the Finals and Shawn Kemp's averages noticeably also dropped from his regular season averages. I will give Shawn Kemp a pass though since Rodman and Luc Longley were playing absolutely lockdown defense on him that series and he still played decently well. In the 91 finals, Worthy was injured in both games 4 and 5 and Magic was already diagnosed with HIV. The 1997 finals ended in Game 6 after a VERY CONTROVERSIAL no-goaltending call on Scottie Pippen despite him shaking the rim on the last shot and causing it to miss. The 1998 finals had even more controversy due to a 5 point swing in game 6 in 98 by counting a Ron Harper jumper that was a shot clock violation, and taking away a Howard Eisley 3 that was not. In conclusion, I did watch A LOT of 90s basketball with my dad but the difference is, I can put aside my bias and appreciate greatness on the court. The fact that athletes get better as time passes is a scientific fact and the way Lebron has dominated the MOST talented era in the NBA for as long as he has will always be the difference in my books.@664

Lebron is amazing but Michael is an icon. MJ is like Pope John Paul II in Europe. You may not believe me, but in Europe, if you ask your grandmother, grandfather or child who Lebron James is, very often they don't know. But when you ask about Jordan, even the old grandma knows who he is. All these conversations about who is the best are a bit pointless. In the current era, Lebron is undoubtedly the best. Michael was the best in his era. but I know one thing, the basketball player who has been my biggest inspiration so far is Michael. Think about it, Michael played his last match 21 years ago and everyone is talking about him. I wonder if in 20 years we will be talking about LeBron like Jordan. We have to wait to answer this question

Very few all-star teammates over 21 seasons.. MJ had at least 1 all-star teammate every year from 1993-2003. Jordan wasn't even a 1st pick..he was the 3rd pick behind (Sam Bowie) who was a terrible NBA player but he got drafted above MJ. LeBron is the best we've ever seen at every aspect of basketball, MJ was the highest scorer we've ever seen at 30.1 ppg for his career. But he gave up twice on Chicago. And then became the ALL-TIME WORST GM/TEAM OWNER IN THE HISTORY OF THE NBA.

Yeah, maybe because Jordan's competitions in the Finals were downright awful, and every "Star" he faced in the finals was a historical choker. Finals opponents' net efficiency rating in the postseason (Jordan): 1992 Trailblazers +2.9 1997 Jazz +2.7 1996 Supersonics +2.7 1993 Suns +1.7 1998 Jazz +1.6 1991 Lakers +1.0 Finals opponents' net efficiency rating in the postseason (Lebron): 2017 Warriors +13.6 2014 Spurs +11.6 2015 Warriors +9 2013 Spurs +7 2011 Mavericks +6.7 2016 Warriors +6.3 2007 Spurs +5.3 2012 Thunder +4.6 Jordan was also greatly favored in each of his Finals appearances by a wide margin (Vegas odds). Lebron was only favored in 4 of his Finals appearances (Vegas odds). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MJ on Bulls in 1993 - 57 wins (Finals) Bulls without MJ in 1994 - 55 wins (One controversial call from Conference Finals) Lebron on Cavs in 2010 - 61 wins (ECSF) Cavs without Lebron in 2011 - 19 wins (2nd worst team in the league by 2 wins) Lebron on Heat in 2014 - 54 wins (Finals) Heat without Lebron in 2015 - 37 wins (Didn't make playoffs) Lebron on Cavs in 2018 - 50 wins (Finals) Cavs without Lebron in 2019 - 19 wins (2nd worst team in the league by 2 wins again) MJ's Bulls had 2 fewer losses without him while all of Lebron's teams that lost him became MUCH MUCH worse. If he had 2-4 All-Stars surely the teams can't be that bad after he leaves them. Cavs in 2011 still had 1x All-Star Mo Williams, Antawn Jamison, and ADDED Baron Davis while losing Lebron and 34-year-old Ilgauskus. Heat in 2015 still had Wade and Bosh, Cavs in 2019 just lost Lebron. See the difference between when Lebron leaves a team and when MJ leaves a team? Lebron had to carry historically bad teams for 80% of his career and MJ was on a great team in the 90s that made the ECSF without him and was only 1 bad call from the ECF. Another thing, MJ's era was so historically weak (2 expansion drafts, 6 new teams) that Hakeem became the FIRST PERSON IN NBA HISTORY to win a championship in 1994 WITHOUT another All-Star. This is UNHEARD of in other eras. Lebron, on the other hand, played in possibly the most talented era of all time (Kobe, Duncan, Shaq, KD, Steph, Giannis, Harden, Kawhi, etc.).

This whole debate about who is the greatest is fun to watch and read. Here is an analogy for you, most employers would consider qualities, duties and responsibilities a requisite but they would also consider soft skills so to speak a must as well. Soft skills as in The intangibles like "Winning", "Clutch", "Defense Stopper", "Taking The Opponents Heart or Playing Mind Games" "Knowing What You're Going To Do And Still Not Being Able to Stop It", "Making The Opponents Coaches and Players Lose Sleep From Game Planning" "A Will To Win" and then you add in the knowledge (K), skill (S), and ability (A). This guy was a 10 time scoring champion the year and 7 of them were straight. Thats on top of winning 2 x 3Peat championships, 9 time All Defensive Team and 1 Defensive Player of the Year. And on and on... he did this in 13 or 14 years and retired twice. So he took breaks in between and still came back and showed why he was the greatest to EVER lace them up. Lebron is an outstanding player and his longevity is remarkable and championships really have nothing to do with the overall greatness.or conversation. When you look at the ( body of work) how he did and who he did it with over a whole career, I have to still give the nod to Jordan.

Ray played against prime mj who won 96 97 and 98 so that stops what last comment said and he played bron in his best years so wats ya point homie

MJ played at 40! Avg 21.2 with the Wizards while getting his knee drained before every game, and after coming back from a 3 year absence. If lebron retired for 3 years came back and had to get his knee drained before every game then we could talk, and in a more physical era the early 2000s😮

That's insane, especially considering it was before the stats boom where players as crummy as Westbrook could average 30 point triple doubles for 3 years straight. Then you consider that Jordan and Lebron are a hall of fame career apart in achievements, and that's despite Jordan playing for far less years - Jordan has 34 trophies to Lebron's 17. 6 championships (Lebron 4, including 1 where Ray Allen saved his butt or it'd be 2011 all over again, plus a choked 2011 championship), 5 MVP's (LeBron 4), 10 scoring titles (Lebron 1), 9 time 1st defense (Lebron 5), Defensive Player of the Year in a STACKED era of defensive centers (Lebron 0).....

It's comical that you didn't have a clue that LeBron or ?LeFlopper? is a 13x ALL NBA Defensive player. MJ wasn't but a 9x. LeBron's stats destroyed MJ's, except in PPG, steals, and less Turnovers. Awards are handed out by voters..the voters gave MJ extra awards out of fear he'd quit basketball again. LeBron has been an All-star in 20 out of 21 seasons. MJ was great to watch in the 1990s. But since 2003 MJ knew his legacy was dropping to LeBron, Kobe, and other stars.

The Bulls were the original super team.. MJ, Pippen, Rodman, Kukoc, Harper.. MJ couldn't win shit before Pippen and Grant got there. MJ lost every year his first 6-7 years. He averaged 37ppg on a team that featured last year veteran George Gervin, and nothing but 3rd tier bench warmers. That's not GOAT shit.. that desperate to score points in hopes of winning.

@@Skillz_251If we find anything comical, it’s that you don’t know the facts about your own player. LeBron was only on All-Defensive team6 times. The 13 you are referring to is how many times he was on the All-NBA Team. For reference, Michael was on All-Defensive team 9 times and Kobe 12 times, a record for guards. Michael also did that in 5+ fewer years of play than LeBron.

And it's crazy that Ray Allen say this because he was drafted in 1996 Jordan retired in 1998 So he never played against a prime Michael Jordan so he's saying the old MJ was better LBJ and his prime

Exactly. He requires all-star level talent around him. And who actually developed into an all-star or HoFer due to LeBron? Most of the future HoFers thar were LeBron's teammates were faces of their teams prior to joining LeBron. The argument for LeBron is an incredible reach and isn't based on anything factual because his game isn't flawless, and if he did make his teammates better then they would be stronger when he leaves them.. the fact is that he made his teammates depend on him and nothing else.

This agenda that you are pushing where Lebron has SO MUCH help is absolutely laughable. First 7 years with the Cavs: Best players Big Z and Mo Williams. 4 years with Heat: Wade was great in 2011, good in 2012, and bad after those 2 years. For reference, he avged only 15/5 in the playoffs on 45% FG in 2013. Bosh was good for 1 year (2011), and was terrible after that. He only played 14/23 playoff games in 2012, where he avged 14/7. In 2013, he pretty much fell off completely and only put up 12/7 on 45% FG in the playoffs. 4 Years with Cavs: Ran into Warriors Dynasty first 2 years, then KD Warriors next 2 years. Kyrie was only great in 2016/2017 playoffs and Love put up similar stats to Bosh in 2012. At best, Lebron has had All-time teams in only 4 years of his 21 year career. (2011 and 2012 Heatles + 2016 and 2017 Cavs).

You can't use a team accomplishment to justify who is better. Kobe didn't lead any 3-Peats. The question really should be how is MJ the GOAT. Who did he beat, what other great shooting guards did he play against, and how long was his greatness?

Both make their teammates better. Lebron raises the floor. Jordan raises the ceiling. One makes their team competitively relevant when they shouldnt, the other makes the opposing team irrelevant when they should be. One played to be great, forget about winning.

Easy comparison if you ask lifelong Cavs fans over 40 yrs old. Jordon destroyed great Cavs teams in 90s. Lebron kept coming up short with Cavs until 2016. But 1-4 record in the Finals playing for the Cavs was not even close to MJ domination.

The longevity argument is weak. To me its like they're saying he's not as good, but he was not as good for a lot longer. That aint no GOAT. 😂

@moresomoze

Ай бұрын

There really isn't. The competition is significantly harder, the defensive plays are significantly more sophisticated and effective, the league is more athletic, every single person on every single championship level team has to be a 3pt shooter, and big men have to guard them. It's a dumb argument. It's literally impossible to compare the two. Think about how many teams since mjs bulls have even gone back to back champs? That's not just because Jordan is so much better than everyone else. He didn't have the same competition. Not even close. He was on the most dominant team in the league for like 10 years. There is no unanimous best team, and there are teams that were much much much more talented than the MJ bills. And LeBron Beat just about all of them.

Luv them both. As far as I’m concerned, they both are in the same GOAT pedestal 👑🏀

Micheal Jeffery Jordan aka "The Black Cat" "Black Jesus" has changed the game bring it to where it is today. He has lead the game in so many areas where the rules didn't cater for him. Now same is tailored for many of the softer cotton candy players. Many of the older players who played against him were denied by him and his team. Karl Malone would never give Jordan such props because Jordan took what he believe is his glory. Isiah Thomas is personally against M.J for not being part and parcel of that 1992 Dream Team. So you can see why they would to go to Lebron. Lebron has melt down in an important game sitting on the edge of the bench and not speaking to any one. How could this be leadership qualities. As a captain of a ship you called to command and go down with your ship, which he didn't. M.J left and return twice. The first time needs no words but 3peat. The second time raising the quality of Wizards with far less quality players. Lebron has always had great support. Kobe has received and kept 2nd place and shown his leadership. Then there was the fear factor of M.J by many players and their coaches. What other info is needed. I know that you can't take away the fact that he scored many point that should have called travelling. If the call was made at that time. Most likely he would be at just about 33K points in 20yrs. He would have been averaging about 20.3 points per game. Where is his greatness.
