Who is Michael Jordan (https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/1035/michael-jordan)'s real competition for the greatest NBA player of all time?
MJ's last championship run with the Chicago Bulls (https://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/chi/chicago-bulls) is captured in "The Last Dance," a 10-part documentary series debuting on ESPN (https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/28973557/the-last-dance-updates-untold-story-michael-jordan-chicago-bulls) on Sunday (9 p.m. ET). That sixth and final title helped Jordan earn a strong claim for GOAT status, with the Hall of Famer finishing No. 1 in ESPN's all-time NBArank (https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/page/nbarank1/all-nbarank-1) in 2016.
But do legends such as Wilt Chamberlain (https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/4142/wilt-chamberlain), Bill Russell (https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/4152/bill-russell), Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/4145/kareem-abdul-jabbar) have a stronger case than Jordan? What about LeBron James (https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/1966/lebron-james)? And what qualities make one player the GOAT?
Heading into the series premiere, our NBA experts answer the biggest questions about the best basketball players ever.

He can't be goat by being selfish in the finals. ��
The stats prove you wrong on 3 fronts:
1) in the 93' Finals, both the suns and bus averaged exactly 106.7 PPG z d 113.0 ortg.. so every ounce of MJ's scoring was needed
2) MJ shot 53% during the 91-93 Finals with a 120 ortg - no teammate or offensive play tops that efficiency, so it makes sense for MJ to shoot as much as possible
3) Pippen is the worst offensive player of any sidekick to s top 10 player... By far... He forced MJ to have #1 PPG, PER, WS/48, BPM, and all the top VORP seasons.. Pippen also achieved his highs alongside MJ (21.0 and 7.0 apg in 92' vs 22.0 and 5.6 in 94')

You didn't see i was actually talking about his 6-0 record in the finals. I say he's selfish because he never gave others a chance to have a ring of their own.

Who has the most playoff points?
MJ scored the most points per game - a full 4-5 points more than all the best scorers in history
In addition to goat scoring per game, MJ also had goat clutch stats (down the stretch of tight games), along with goat frequency and accuracy of game winners

LeBron led in all major categories for an entire series. LeBron is the GOAT and his carry jobs confirm this

LeBron is an angel that gifted Dirk, Duncan and Curry titles. Jordan is a selfish demonic entity.
Jordan is the GOAT
ps. I'm sure LeBron would have gifted Kawhi, Harden or Giannis a title too. He shares the wealth. He's a communist.

Actually Russell is selfish
yes but the league was smaller then and less people suffered from his capitalism.

He and the celtics are west's and the lakers' worst nightmare.

despite 3ball's best efforts to convince us otherwise MJ is still the undisputed GOAT. you have to give it to him because of that career and mentality. he really did dominate his era in complete fashion.

Not sure if you are trolling or are you really THAT dumb
You posted a picture of Lebron with a quote that says "no TEAM in Nba finals", so duh we are talking about team accomplishment
As for your Kobe comment, that's just you moving the goal post cause you got ethered.
If you post a pic talking about rings as a team's franchise player, than we can have a different discussion
However, in this thread and these 2 pics I am referring to:
Facts: Lebron less rings, 0 points in the west
Move along kiddo, Ethered again

How did you ether me when I was the one that had to correct you?
LeBron's 3 >>>>>>> Kobe's 2.
It's pretty much common sense. I'm sure you have at least a little bit of that since you were able to make an account.

Yes Lebron's 3 FMVP > Kobe's 2
But as a franchise player
Lebron only has 1 :(
Lebron was the best player in miami, but Wade was the franchise player for miami.
I hope you are not getting confused between the two terms, I know your small brain might not be able to process it
Ethered again.... This is getting old fast
You might want to start bringing in the rest of your alts wheel to defend yourself.
Do your usual high five, replying/agreeing with each other, spam emojis, etc
Kids like you are so predictable.
You will probably reply again, because I'm telling you to dance like a monkey and you will dance like a monkey for me
