You're gonna be coping even harder after he repeats next year.
All it takes is Mookie Betts, Steph Curry, and Joe Burrow all sitting in the same car in order for one drunk driver to make the world a significantly better place.

Lebron is a hell of a player, but a horrendous star. Drove more people away from the NBA than we could ever imagine.

Most importantly both legends though. I find it difficult to pick one over the other.

If you showed all the records of the nba - especially playoff records to a person that never watched ball then they would think bron has like 8 rings.
The fact that he does not shows what he should have been, but is not.

MJ leaves Bulls, Bulls make a deep playoff run
Lebron leaves Cavs, Cavs are worst team in the league

Jordan 30-6-5
James 27-7-7

Jordan has him beat in all major achievements. MVPs, Finals MVPs, Rings, DPOY.

Jordan's a better scorer and defender
LeBron's a better passer

Most achievements that LeBron has over Jordan are due to playing extra seasons (more 1st team NBA, more totals points, etc)

LeBron's clearly number 2 now but if he wants to surpass Jordan, he has to actually surpass him, not just get close.

Crazy stats about Jordan and why he's the GOAT




1.) Jordan already averaged 37 ppg in a 82 game season in a tough era.

2.) Jordan already averaged 40 point in 6 seperate nba playoff series

86' Celtics 43.7 ppg
88' Cavs 45.2 ppg
89' Cavs 40.0 ppg
90' 76ers 43.0 ppg
92' Heat 45.0 ppg
93' Suns 41.0 ppg

Hell is Career playoff ppg average from 1986 to 1991 was 37.4 ppg over a 5 year playoff runs.


3.) When MJ had his 37.1 ppg season this is how he averaged that total:










4.) If MJ actually cared about developing his shot or was in this era where the 3 point shot is the most important basket, MJ would of easily cracked 40 ppg because he is a great 3 point shooter which can be proven below:












And fun fact: MJ has more scoring titles in his career than any/every active NBA player. LOL at thinking that if harden or Giannis can't score 40 ppg MJ wouldn't either. MJ has higher Percentages than harden and it's not even funny.












MJ would easily crack 40 points and it's not even funny. MJ didn't even have a weakness in his game. Not one. GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME AND IT'S NOT EVEN COMPARABLE.

IF MJ WAS IN TODAY'S GAME, MJ WOULD EASILY SHOOT MORE 3'S AND GET MORE CALLS WHEN HE DRIVES TO THE BASKET.

40-45+ PPG AND easY CHAMPionships and scoring titles

Find a way to equate 6/6 to 4/10.

How does Lebwrong almost double Jordan in finals appearances yet STILL have significantly less rings?

THAT'S your GOAT? SMH

I could understand if LeBron asked people to respect Cleveland. But what is the thought process of demanding respect to one of the biggest and most popular sports franchises of all time?
And then he asks people to respect him when he is literally in ever GOAT debate. Does he honestly see himself as a victim? Soft.

think about it logically.

This era of NBA is weak. Soft defenses, ticky tack fouls, no paint defense like in the 80s and 90s.


Lebron is a manufactured star. He stat pads like Russell Westbrook, but makes it less obvious. Don't quote me Lebrons stats anymore because Westbrook averaged a triple double twice now. Harden is out there putting up 40 ppg. This era is weak as ****. Lebron is a goat tier stat padder.


And his 4 rings are a result of 10 finals appearances, in which he had to form THREE DIFFERENT SUPERTEAMS.


I'd take Magic and Larry Bird over Lebron. Lebron isnt in my top 5.

There's been 4 teams to threepeat in the history of the NBA. Lakers in the 50s. Shaq/Kobe Lakers in the 00s. 60s Celtics when they won some ungodly number in a row. Jordan's Bulls twice.

No other team has done it.

You can cherry pick whatever personal stats you want, but Jordan did arguably the hardest thing in the NBA. And he did it twice. If LBJ had done it with the Heat, I think LBJ has a better case. But he got humiliated by old man Duncan and the Spurs.

LBJ is a good player, but he doesn't stand up to Jordan.

The only real edge LeBron has is for how many points he scored while wearing a wig.

That record may never be even attempted again.

Also the league in the 00's were the toughest defensive era due to zone and illegal defense.. Jordan even admitted if he played in the 00's his career would be different

You're wrong on the clutch playoff game winners and even more wrong on clutch stats in the playoffs as LeBron takes and makes more on similar efficiency

Stay taking L's on a subject you know very little about lil boy
