The GOAT debate is Jordan, Kareem, Lebron. Jordan and Kareem have 6 championships a piece, Lebron has 4. Jordan finals record 6-0, Kareem 6-4, Lebron 4-6. Jordan finals win-loss record 24-11, Kareem 29-27, Lebron 22-33. I'm not even including guys with 5 championships, 4 championships, or Bill Russell. Since if you're ALSO looking at stats, the separation from guys with elite stats IS the finals record and championships. If you DO include guys with 4 or 5 championships, there's guys like Magic, Kobe, Duncan, Shaq, Curry. All of whom, posted elite stats and have winning finals records. Lebron belongs in this category and is therefore not the GOAT.

GOAT has been generational now IMO. Certain ages say Bron, certain say MJ. I got Kareem & MJ TIED, followed by Bron. If Bron wins #5 he'll further cement his stellar career. 😮

Problem with this debate is Bill Russell is the real Goat. 11 Rings, #6 retired thruout the league so show proper respect when talking about the Goat 🐐. But between Jordan and LeBron what is confusing? Jordans Legacy is greater based on the finals results. 6-0, compared to 4-6. Yes LeBron has done more work on the court that's not debatable, but his finals losses hurt his position because we play the game to win and LeBrons finals win percentage and only having 4 rings destroys his position in the Goat debate. Compared to Jordan, his debate is witch is greater the 6wins or 0 losses(simple)...# Megatron #

Russell is the greatest winner, but he's not the Goat because of Wilt. You can argue Russell wasn't even the best at his position when he played. Compare the years they were in the league together from Wilt rookie year to Russell last year (60-69). Wilt had just as many MVPs, more NBA 1st team selections, more scoring titles, more rebounding titles, and Wilt even led the league in assists 1 year. Even head to head Wilt dominated but Russell had the better team usually and just managed to pull out the win. Russell and Wilt ain't in the Goat debate because of each other (Wilt was better, but Russell won more).

Jamal Murray’s coming out party as an NBA star was the bubble post season. Bro has either been injured or balling ever since.

If i were the Lakers. I would focus on the rest of the Nugget's team not allow Jokic to get any assist. Lock down murray , jackson jr etc.. i wouldn't really double Jokic because he would fall back to his assist strenght. If the Nuggets is going to win let Jokic do all the hard work let him be the only factor for them to win. Every single game. He can't have a good game every night. I would work him out. Let the win factor depends on him to score high points while we lock the rest of the team. He will be exausted and wanted to uses his assist skill which is what i was doing in the first place to prevent.

I hope the Denver Nuggets smashes the Lakers again! The amount of coverage that the Lakers and this guy still get is beyond ridiculous at this point. I don’t even have a dog in this fight, but the disrespect towards Denver is just on another level. 💯

Nobody debated if Jordan was the GOAT while he was playing. Everybody in the world just knew it. We were watching it with our own eyes. You can't talk your way into being the greatest.

As it stands, it’s either someone believes Bron is the GOAT or they believe MJ is GOAT. I say Bron is, but I can understand someone making an argument for Jordan. These analysts lose credibility and objectivity when they pretend as though Bron doesn’t have a single claim to GOAT status. They pretend Bron doesn’t even have a place in the conversation, and even go as far as to say that if he wins this year, he’ll earn himself a spot in the GOAT debate. Y’all are straight up cappin.

Has to win 2 chips really. I'd make it a convo then.

Really really simple actually. All he needs to do is hook up with Dr. Brown, take Delorian back in time with Marty Mcfly, win every NBA finals he’s ever played in, never play a game 7, and make sure MJ never existed. That should just about do it

Lebron is a great player Michael is a different breed he is the type of breed that do whatever it takes to win.. i stopped watching NBA since 2011.. i fell in love with NBA again because of the Denver Nuggets..

Greeny said last year was Jamal Murray coming out party .. did U see him in the bubble orrrr we forgot about that ? Lmao .

Lebron needs to start again as a rookie and rewrite the history of his career by deleting his flopping and having so much superstars who helped him with his few championships. He needs to develop a killer mentality and compete fairly by not seeking the help of so many superstars just to win.

Lebron has conversations about game 1 vs the Nuggets in the regular season and circles it on his calendar. But the media is looking too far into it for the playoff rematch.

If Kareem isn't even entertained as a GOAT despite having the best accolades nothing will get the sports media off MJ Many have said LeBron could win 2 more and they still have MJ. Funny because the same people say 1 more puts Pat with Tom It's not about the greatest player. It's about the greatest draws. MJ is the most prolific money maker in NBA history. It's sll scripted sport entertainment In a fair and honest league going off of numbers that don't exclude shoes, merch and ratings Kareem is easily the GOAT and the only MJ/LBJ debate is for 2nd

Espn gonna have nothing to talk about when Lebron retire. 70% of there recycled talking points will be gone.

Yall wanna know something that the media ain't telling yall.... these young guns thats on the Nuggets ( mainly Payton Watson and Christian Braun are battle tested because each game in the regular season to them, felt like a playoff game because teams are hunting the Nuggets and giving it their best Because they are the Defending champs. So them going through the regular season with a target on their backs really helped them

Unless somebody pushes James Dolan off a subway platform, Lebron is not coming to the Knicks.

Greatest travellers of all time: Marco Polo (1254-1324) Christoper Columbus (1451-1506) Ferdinand Magellan (1480 - 1521) Lebron James (2003 - present)

They talk about hypotheticals every year. Didnt they talk about this last year but dropped it immediately afterwards once the Lakers got swept by the Nuggets? 😂

Agree Maxi

With all sincerity and as an NBA fan, if the Denver Nuggets go back to back, nobody will care nor will they remember only in the history books will they

i hate that ppl think the nuggets own the lakers, the nuggets actually had to get over the lakers hump, ppl forget the bubble happened. lakers won it, later we got nuggets sweeping them and evening the playoff series 1-1 now the winner of this series will prove to be the more dominant team in recent history

You can’t say this every year. When he’s 43 the argument is gonna be “if Lebron wins a title at 43 he’s the goat”. The argument is closed. Long gone. 6 losses and a sweeping can’t be undone

Looking at the title of the video: What more does Lebron need to do?! Short answer is nothing. The cement on his long and storied career is just about dry. Only thing left for him to do is sign it and enjoy however many years he has left in the NBA.

Lebron has been in the discussion since 2016. I still think MJ is the goat, but youre a hater if you don't think its debatable at the very least.

Nothing at all, 4 rings(3 diff team’s),4mvps,10 finals appearances, dominating 21 years in

Lebron been the goat why we still having this discussion?

Every year they say if he wins this year he’s the undisputed goat but how come when he loses it doesn’t hurt him. That’s another year he plays and still hasn’t caught up to mj in rings

Mj still the goat 6 chips, never bounced around the league chasing it didnt have to team up with other players to get it. Just got it done in chicago

Commit to playing defense. Take the tough assignments. The Lakers have enough scorers. Let them get going early, and get some momentum. Move the basketball. If he is truly great and committed to winning, he will spend most of his energy and the game guarding anyone of the wing players

Stop comparing maaaaaan
