I’m struggling to see how Lebrons a top 10 player when he has 4 rings in 21 years srs

Can someone explain the narrative
Steph Curry- 4 rings 15 years
Tim Duncan 5 rings in 19 years
Jordan 6 rings 15 years
Magic Johnson 5 rings 13 years
Kareem 6 rings 20 years
Kobe 5 rings 20 years
Bill Russel 9 rings 13 years

If you’re truly the goat wouldn’t you have more success than all these players? You can also make the case that half his rings have asterisk. Especially the bubble ring lmao. Bailed out by Ray Allen and hand picked his teams which none of the players above did

The only thing I don't like about Lebron is how he complained about being beat by a super-team after he created the original super-team with wade and bosh. The rest is whatever.
no crew crew

Lebron has created multiple super teams and complained about the warriors super team. Let that sink in

Not to mention his stat padding has come during a time period where little to no D is even being played. He doesn't make my top 10.

He isn't a leader like the others mentioned.

I think he would be in any sane person's top 10 list, probably anywhere from 10th to 6th. However when anybody starts listing him at top 3 or even as the GOAT, i cant help but cringe a little inside
"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

He’s not even better than Larry bird. Was never part of a dynasty. He had to suck all the resources out of a franchise for the next decade to get one championship out of it. Jordan would’ve won 3 rings in each of the super teams lebeta created

Most points all time doesn't qualify?

First player ever to reach 30k points, 10k rebound and 10k assists - which will probably never happen again.

Has had rings with three different teams, not just one.

Most All Star appearances ever, and has made All NBA 19 years in his career.

He's not the GOAT, but you can't deny he's in the top five all time. It's not all about rings.

It’s all scripted anyways. Curry should have another ring and Lebron should have at least one fewer. 2016 was gay

heavily losing record in the finals despite playing in a weak conference his entire career. Suddenly now that he's in the west he can't even make the playoffs, lmao.

Top 10 is a reach. Can maybe see an argument for top 20.

I guess we forgot about the title he won with the Lakers. I know, it was only four years ago and people don't consider it a real championship.

The NBA/media are shoving this stupid “lebron is the goat” thing down our throats

A lot less people would think he was #1 otherwise

All time scoring leader (longevity argument is bunk or Dirk, Vince Carter, Haslem, etc would all be top 6 scoring all time), 4x FMVP on 3 teams, went to finals from 2011-2018.

His true blemish is the 2011 finals performance.

Also since it’s just rings, let’s slot Robert Horry right under Bill Russell with 7.

LeBron James did a great job of ruining the NBA when he pulled that super team bullchit in Miami. He's tried that angle his entire career since his first stint in Cleveland ended.
