Like Davis said, it took Lebron 7 more seasons to record more 30 point games than Michael Jordan. Furthermore, why don't we look at 40 point games. Jordan has 173 and Lebron has 77. 50 point games? Jordan has 31 and Lebron has 14. It would take Lebron more than 40 healthy seasons just to pass Michael Jordan in 40 point games and 50 point games. Took him 7 seasons to pass him in 30 point games.
That's a very far gap. Lebron has no argument. Then you wanna bring up that Lebron's is 4th in assists, but don't wanna talk about how he's number one in turnovers. With all that said, Jordan has also made more All NBA defensive teams.
And if that wasn't enough, Jordan won 6 rings with 1 all star, 0 losses. Lebron won 3 rings and lost 6 and played with 7 all stars in his career. Jordan even won an extra MVP.
Sorry but Lebron has no argument at all. I don't care how many other records he goes for. He can play until he's 60 and won't catch Jordan in 40 point games or 50 point games. And that's even if he maintained his level of play. You can mention all you want about assists and rebounds and triple doubles, but when I mention that Jokic has more triple doubles than Lebron in half the time, you don't wanna talk about it. When i mention that Doncic has a higher point, rebound and assist total at the same age, you don't wanna talk about it.
There is no argument for Lebron. Why would you go the triple double route when you wouldn't do the same for comparing him to Jokic or Doncic? At this point your only argument is longevity, making more 10 point games consecutively, the myth that he had no help and Jordan had Pippen, or the myth that Lebron guards all positions 1-5 well.
