If Lebron James ends up G.OAT (wake up, he is well on the path) it
He will NEVER be GOAT, though. As Johnny Sack from the Sopranos once said, '[I]That ship... has sailed.' [/I]
He'll never be considered the G.O.A.T.
Michael Jordan will always hold that title. You can't lose in the NBA Finals [b]TWICE[/B] and eclispe the great one, which is Jordan.
Lebron is a super star player for the ages. His skill is undeniable. He is a freak of nature. He is the king.
But
He still falls short to Michael Jordan. The greatest of all time. Jordan was just that good.(Also, never backed out of a dunk contest....)
You don't think Larry Bird would have been better at managing talent than Lebron? Wasn't nearly as ball dominant. Bird knew what he wanted to do before he gets the ball and made all his plays within 3 seconds of having possession. Bill Russel (from hearsay) will probably be better than Lebron from this aspect as well.
People need to drop this LeBron GOAT thing. It's ****ing ridiculous.
Can you imagine if ISH was around throughout Jordan's career? Dude would be a God.
You can say he's the most naturally gifted player of all time, but he has no where near the mental fortitude to surpass Jordan. It's not even close.
Drop it.
lmao.. how about it's because he CAN ONLY succeed while playing next to stars?
too easy, too easy :oldlol:

James went to the finals for the first time at a very young age (23). He was not in his prime, and lead a team not nearly as good as the chicago bulls. Infact that team was not even a playoff team with out a young james.
Lebron is now 29 and about to get his second title. How old was MJ when he got his second title? wasnt he about 29 also? Exactly.

My point was thats its human nature to want to be the best. even if it means drafting a guy like Ray Allen over Kobe to play alongside yourself.

What about 2011 when he layed an egg versus the Mavs? The Greatest of All Time doesn't do that.
