this is a trick question.

the resume above represents the difference between MJ and Lebron.

let that sink in.

[FultzNationRISE]

Wow, fascinating OP.

Now let's play Guess The Era:

Short three point line.
Shortened first round.
No zone defense.
24 teams.
Auto mechanics and grocery baggers.
Refs on the mafia payroll.


Anyone?

[Spurs m8]

They're not gonna like this :roll:

[SouBeachTalents]

Yeah, but the problem is you could literally do this same thing for LeBron and virtually any other player in history and get a similar, if not even more lopsided result.

You want to use this criteria to argue Jordan's better than LeBron, fine, I'm not gonna disagree with that. But it completely invalidates your "LeBron sucks" and "LeBron's not top 10" arguments :lol

ok let's do the same with Kareem and Lebron:

2 NBA Championships
2 NBA MVPs
1 scoring title
4 blocks leader
1 rebounding leader

there's another HOF level player difference between Kareem and Lebron.

stfu. PJ Tucker and Draymond are rim protectors in this weak ass era.

[SouBeachTalents]

ok let's do the same with Kareem and Lebron:

2 NBA Championships
2 NBA MVPs
1 scoring title
4 blocks leader
1 rebounding leader

there's another HOF level player difference between Kareem and Lebron.
Yeah, but after Jordan & Kareem there aren't too many other players you can use that with to get an advantage over LeBron. So out of the thousands of players in history, he'd be ahead of all but 3 or 4.

[nineiron]

so you have Lebron at #5?

[Gudo]

That gap in accomplishments is huge considering Lebron has more seasons played.

[SouBeachTalents]

so you have Lebron at #5?
Personally, I have him top 2, an opinion you obviously will disagree with :lol But I feel like Kareem has an excellent argument to be ranked ahead of him, Wilt & Russell too depending on how you feel about the era they played in. Besides those guys, the difference between LeBron's resume and everybody else's would be like a top 10-15 player ever.

[nineiron]

That gap in accomplishments is huge considering Lebron has more seasons played.

yes, yes it is.

ok, but you have to admit that 3 out of Lebron's 4 rings were lucky af.

Any instance of LeBron being lucky has others of him being unlucky. Getting drafted to Cleveland, never having a better teammate than Mo Williams for 7 years, losing in '09 averaging nearly 40 ppg, losing Kyrie & Love in 2015, losing putting up historic production in '17 & '18, AD getting hurt the last 2 years.

2013 yes, he got extraordinarily lucky in the final 30 seconds of Game 6, the Heat win that game literally 1/100 times. 2016 he had things break his way, but he still played phenomenally to put Cleveland in position to win. I honestly disagree 2020 was lucky for him. The Lakers were the top seed all season then lost HCA for the entire playoffs. How those playoffs would've played out had the season not been postponed is purely subjective opinion.

he was a #1 pick, did you think he was gonna get drafted to a good team?

in 2015, he was going up against Steph the choker and Klay the spot up shooter. not that unlucky.

yea you should build a better roster in 7 years lol. gilbert spends money now and look it didnt even take a year for mobley to have a good team around him.

Calling the goat pg of our era a choker and one of the best 3nD guys ever in klay just a spot up shooter and not even mentioning draymond is biased as hell lol

You act like Jordan was the only player playing under the rules you listed. If it was so easy where are all the other players who did what Jordan was able to do?

FultzNationRise will pull a Lebron and go run and hide LOL
