Magic Johnson said that Lebron was easily on his Mt. Rushmore, and I can guarantee he doesn't have Kobe on it.

But yeah leave it up to the genius basketball minds of Jason Terry and Trevor Ariza:lol

According to Magic

Jordan > Kobe > Kareem > Magic > LeBron

Extremely knowledgeable list in my opinion, even if LeBron is too high

4 out of 5 aint bad

he said Kobe's the greatest Lakers, which means that he's better than Magic in Magic's own head which basically means that he's on his mount rushmore.

Anyone who knows shit has kobe over bran. Kobe can win without a lebron type of player while lebron needs kyrie to think of kobe to win rings. Same is true for shaq. Shaq is a shit clutch player coz of hack a shaq so he was a loser despite his stats until kobe came around.

Then why is "bran" the better scorer and clutch player by nearly every metric?

Talk about changing goalposts. First it was because he wasn't good enough to do it. Then he wasn't good enough to do it without wade/bosh. Then it was because the NBA wanted him to win.

EVERY. SINGLE. EXCUSE IN THE BOOK.

How about you look at the fact that he outplayed curry by a MASSIVE margin. Aren't you the one who was telling us all year that curry was the much better player? Did the "nba wanted" that as well?

It's not even that. A comparison is almost insulting by this point:oldlol:
We are talking about a guy in lebron who's about 10 spots higher on the all time list than Kobe.
Does everything not just better but significantly better. Plays better in the playoffs. Plays much, much better in the playoffs and leads him in pretty much any advanced stat. Has more mvps, more fmvps, higher ppg averages, higher playoff ppg, higher finals ppg, higher rpg, higher playoff rpg, higher finals rpg, higher apg, higher playoff apg, higher finals apg and is so much better defensively that's it's silly to mention them in the same sentence.

Quite simply put, Lebron's comparison is now with MJ. He's on a par with jabbar. He's better than Magic, Bird, and Shaq. And it's almost a waste of time entertaining any comparison with someone who's not in the top 10 at this point.

If I argue that Boobie Gibson is better than Magic Johnson, am I not wrong?

At some point, we draw the line . Seem comparisons are just ridiculous and this is one. They aren't close on the all time list to bother making a comparison. One is several tiers ahead of the other.

if you replace clyde drexler with lebron's playmaking scoring and defensive upgrades the portland trailblazers would probably win in 6 vs the bulls in 92. REMEMBER lebron has NEVER lost when he was 48 mins from a championship. jordan HAS TWICE.

Clyde's 92 finals stats 24/7/3
Lebron's 16 Finals stats: 30/11/9
And dont forget, GOAT DEFENSE

If clyde averages 6 more points 4 more rebounds and 6 more assists WITH GOAT defense the trailblazers win in 6 over the bulls keep in mind drexler had a BETTER supporting cast than lebron, he had 3 other 13+ point scorers otoh, lebron only had 1 and that was due to the gs defense keying in on lebron.
Would you rather have 3 15+ point per game scorers or 1 27 ppg scorer? You obviously
take the 3 because it takes pressure off of you and allows you to get more open. otoh, with only 1 other viable scorer teams can double team in on you.

07-23-2016, 05:16 PM
I disagree. The reason I have LeBron over Kobe is simple. Kobe's nba start was 100 times better than LeBron's because of Shaq. If he had to carry the Lakers by himself from the jump, he would only have 2 rings with the help of Gasol, Bynum, Fishsticks and Artest.

Fish> chalmers
Jellybean > Wade
Artest < Lebron
Gasol > Bosh
Bynum> Birdman/Haslem

Kobe played on some badass teams bruh. Of course if LeBron never left Cleveland he might have 0-1 championships but I still take the whole team into consideration.

They were role players when they won their rings though. Does that remind you of anyone? :lol

LeBron getting out scored by role players in the Finals... :lol

I'm a little late to the party, but I'll take Magic Johnson's opinion of LeBron being on the NBA's "Mount Rushmore" over these two role players

Magic also has Kobe as the GOAT LAKER.

What a beautiful basketball mind :-)

"Trevor Ariza & Jason Terry just agreed on @SiriusXMNBA that Kobe is best player of the generation over both Duncan & Lebron."

Water is wet. Both Duncan and Kobe are best players post Jordan era.

Jet watched LeBron turn himself into a complete beta role player who stood in the corner the entire fourth quarter for all the games that were played in the 2011 finals.

It's very understandable that he would choose Kobe over Bron because of this, regardless of if he personally likes Bron or not.
