Lebron has the ability to accelerate into his jumps. This gives him the ability to jump while going full speed. Something Jordan is uncomfortable with which is why you see him slow down and jump off 2 foot in this chasedown block.

Or going half speed in this one.

He's a better leaper, period
46 inch vertical vs 38-39 inch for MJ

What's the point in having a good vert if your so insecure about showcasing it in the dunk contest?

Lebron has the ability to accelerate into his jumps.
Everyone on this forum has the ability to do this... Dumb thread.. Literally, makes no sense.
Otoh, show me where Lebron takes off from the ft line, where his TOES are at the ft line, not his heel.
And show me where he double-pumps it (http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/8-08-2015/YozdEc.gif), or c ocks it all the way back (http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/8-08-2015/E3p4Db.gif)... Otherwise, all the evidence we have shows MJ has jumped further.. This is a factual statement.

So your empirical evidence is one video of MJ gathering himself to jump off two feet. This is your proof that MJ lacks ability to 'accelerate into his jumps'. A preschooler can do better than that.
Literally the dumbest thing I've read today, and considering Dubeta's presence, that's saying something.

It's not that LBJ jumps better off one foot better, it's just that LeBron can't jump off two feet.

Hes a better leaper, period
MJ's was better at utilizing "hang time" however
Probably because he shot the ball right before he landed and he may have gotten away with landing and then shooting, which is a traveling violation.

In the end, who cares. LeBron is a better power dunker. MJ is a more fluid dunker. MJ is also clearly the better player.
