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.
Hmm couple 3peats there..

Name the player who has a FMVPs with 3 different teams.. I'd argue THATS MORE IMPRESSIVE. To lead 3 different organizations, with different players and lack of stability to championships... GOAT chit

Jordan could never. Hell he'd probably get kicked oit of the bubble if he was here for conduct detrimental to his team, or he'd leave in the middle of he night and go to Atlantic City in the playoffs like he was known to do

LeBron would be the most dominant defensive player in that era if he was allowed to hand check

Different era, different rules, these long ass paragraphs backing up your man crush Lebron is so cringe.

6 is more than 4 last time I checked, but I’m not going to say one is better than the other. MJ’s legacy has a lot less hiccups than Lebrons

Can’t you just let them both be the greatest of their era? Nah cuz you’re an insufferable ******* with major issues

LDS is real. 2016 was bad, 2020 will be worse.
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.

Have to address this post though:



While MJ would still win scoring titles I don't think he'd crack 40+ over a season. Yes you could play tougher defense back when he played, but if you transported him to the current era he would have to deal with zone defenses plus a higher average overall level of talent, athleticism, and depth. He'd still be great no doubt and would win titles, but IMO he's not putting up crazy numbers like 45 PPG over a season.
I wanna hear a valid argument for why LeBron is behind Magic, I can understand why for Kareem but even when you go for his career he has GLARING problems

Kareem MISSED THE PLAYOFFS numerous times in his prime. Him and Magic PLAYED TOGETHER and he has "only" 2 FMVP. Who are you giving the credit to in those championship runs.. Magic or Kareem? It can't be bothered because neither LeBron or MJ is playing with a legit other top 5 player of all time for nearly all their championships

Also I agrer with your other point, Harden has maxed out what you can do in today's era.. he puts up an otherworldly usage rate with high efficiency and gets to the line at an all time rate being in a system designed specifically different than anyone else in league history.. Jordan isn't averaging more than 31 a game because it's detrimental basketball in today's era.. it's losing basketball

LOl at random regular season games. In the playoffs Lebron couldn't even lead a 65 win Cav team to face Kobe in the Finals. MJ would have abused Lebron

LeBron only averaged 38/8/9 or something ridiculous like that against Orlando.. meanwhile Kobe was going 6/24 in Game 7 and needed Artest to save him

So? You do what it takes to win. MJ averaged 41 in the finals before and played defense.

Lebronie stans can only quote stats. We get it....Lebron is ball dominant and hogs the rock. Meanwhile Kobe, TD and Mj did what it took to WIN, and not just stat pad.

Pistons for BOTH KOBE AND MJ. Tell me about them going undefeated for both of them. Arguably Kobe's choke against the Pistons was worse than Brons since Kobe had fkn Shaq

Tell me why MJ is 1-9 in playoff games without Scottie? What is his record without the best coach of all time?

Lebron is better. He's the 2nd best passer for a forward ever. He makes his teammates better. Jordan didn't win chit until Bird, Magic and Isiah had their runs.

Jordan dominated in an incredibly weak NBA

The 1986 Celtics, 1987 Lakers would annihilate the 95 Bulls.

This is very true. Lebron has always faced top tier competition.

Jordan's rings were against the way past their prime Lakers, the trail blazers with no real all star, the Suns with CB, the ****ing Supersonics, and the Utah Jazz twice

Just lol at his era and how weak it was

And he did it all on absolutely stacked rosters. Pippen was the 2nd best player in the league. Horace Grant, Rodman, Kukoc were all elite players. Take Jordan away from the Bulls in 94 and they were one bad call away from the ECF. Take Lebron away from the Cavs and they were dead last in the league

It's amazing how retarded sports miscers are and how they lack the ability to understand context

And why does no one talk about Jordan and the Wizards?

Not true. Jordan consistently played elite teams in the finals and some very good teams in the East too.

The SRS of the teams the Lakers beat this year: -.61, 3.13, 2.35, 2.59. I challenge you to find any title run by Jordan in that ballpark.

4 Of Jordan's title wins were against better teams than any of Lebron's wins except his win against the Warriors which is a very impressive feat. The Warriors at their peak were better than any team Jordan had to play (those teams were insane,) but that's the only point I'll grant. And Lebron started the super team shenanigans anyway, so it's his fault he faced such a stacked team.

4 Of Jordan's title wins were against better teams than any of Lebron's wins except his win against the Warriors which is a very impressive feat.

How you gonna say Lebron started the super team when the Bulls were a super team for 10 years?

Super team through free agency. The Bulls only had 2 stars, Jordan and Pippen both drafted by the Bulls.
