The more I watch Lebron the more I am starting to think he's better than MJ

[QUOTE=Vienceslav]Is this where you prop up Lebron, wait till he loses in the Finals then bump this thread and all the other MJ threads you have made and have bookmarked?:lol[/QUOTE]


That's why I ain't mad at Derivative. Man is on a Skip Bayless level of trollery. :oldlol:

[QUOTE=KOBEisBaawlliin!]LeBron got better ones.[/QUOTE]

Post 'em, nikka.

The more I think of Wilt, the more I realize Lebron will never replace him on the Mount Rushmore of Basketball.

[QUOTE=Derivative]I know that MJ is the GOAT, but the more I watch Lebron these days the more I think that he's a more dominant player than MJ.

Even more so when I watch Cavaliers Lebron videos, especially in 2009, he was godlike during those years.[/QUOTE]

Yup, and his trajectory is eerily similar to Jordan's in many ways.

The tale of Lebron James is of freaking biblical proportions at this point in his career... and he's only 29... and he sneakily added a wicked turnaround J to his arsenal... when? I don't even recall - he's that good at this point. An expert in every facet of the game.

I feel you bro.


MJ only has 6 rings compared to Bron's 2
MJ only has 6x FMVP compared to Bron's 2
MJ only 3peated twice compared to Bron hasn't 3peated yet

Wait, what?

[QUOTE=Keno][SIZE="5"][B]he is more dominant than mj on both ends of the floor.[/B][/SIZE] but his accolades haven't reached his yet. i think he will have a better resume than his when it's all said and done.[/QUOTE]

29 year-old MJ : 3 chips, 3 fmvps, 3 finals appearances, 3 mvps, 7 all-nba first-teams, 6 defensive first teams

29 year-old Lebron (if the Heat threepeat): 3 chips, 3 fmvps, 5 finals appearances, 4 mvps, 8 nba first teams, 6 defensive first teams

it's actually the opposite for me. The more I watch lebron the more I am starting to think there is absolutely no comparison between these two players and that MJ is much better.

MJ played like three seasons less.

Is that the best LeBron stans can do? Comparing like 7 of MJs seasons to 11 of Lebron's?

[QUOTE=SexSymbol]MJ played like three seasons less.

So LeBron gets docked because he played straight out of high school while Jordan had to go to college?

[QUOTE=kamil]When did MJ collude? I dont remember him teaming up with Bird and Magic...??[/QUOTE]

''collude'' get that spin doctor shit out of here.
I'm not interested in debating Lebron vs Jordan's pop culture status or career arch -

Jordan had Pippen, Phil Jackson and eventually Rodman.
Lebron has Wade, Bosh.
Move on and compare their play on the court... it requires a lot of youtube viewing.

[QUOTE=nathanjizzle]straight up, youre stupid.

lebron has alot to prove to be better than jordan. and that ship has already sailed. I mean, just tonight, he had a freethrow to break 50 and his record for most points scored in the post season, but he missed. jordan doesnt even have that kind of mental weakness.[/QUOTE]

so lebron can't be the goat because he missed a freethrow to get 50 points in an already decided game? lmaooooooooooooooooooo. ****ing retarded ass bulls fans.

Well when it comes to projecting how good Lebron's legacy will be at the end of his career, I'd say it's rather relevant.

There's no indication Lebron will have to retire 3 seasons early because his ''college years'' were in the NBA. (not to mention take a 1-year hiatus in his prime) I don't think Lebron's body is any more ''broken down'' than Jordan's was at 29. Quite the contrary.

So yeah, i think age is a fair way of comparing both players.

lebron has surpassed jordan a long time ago

he's no MJ, but he could end up somewhere in the top 5

How can this era East be a "much tougher era"?? The east has been as weak as ever, and averaging 30 in the playoffs in one year will not make it, Jordan has a career playoff average of 33.4

[QUOTE=Im Still Ballin]Your damn right i was ****ing your girls ass last night. shit. was. RAW.[/QUOTE]


PM me dem pics, nikka.

Still waiting on Lebron stans to post Bron's achievements to compare them to MJ's.

no way is mj being stopped by boris diaw

mj/kobe are the opposites of oscar/lebron. If not for colluding, lebron wouldve been oscar 2.0

Can we wait until he even has 1 threepeat? Christ.

I guarantee OP has not watched more then two or three MJ games.

Two of Jordan's main rivals were the bad boy Pistons and the early 90s Knicks... those teams were as tough as they come, and MUCH tougher than the teams he's facing today. So no, I don't feel that LeBron's better than Jordan, and that's not even taking into consideration game 5 against Boston in 2010, the entire 2011 Finals (especially the 8 point game), and losing in the Finals twice, something Jordan's never done. Also Jordan's jumper was way more reliable and LeBron's jumper only got decently reliable when he went to Miami. Jordan had a 72 win season as well, followed by a 69 win season, both in the later years of his career, while the most LeBron's gotten in a season was 66. LeBron's probably the best in the game today, but had too many failures to be better than Jordan all time... Jordan would NEVER have done what LeBron did in game 5 against Boston or score 8 points in a finals game.

Perhaps, but Jordan had rare longevity as a [I]superstar[/I]. He was still averaging 32 per game in the playoffs at 34, and this kind of production is the exception rather than the norm. LeBron may be a similar kind of exception, but you can't just "assume" he'll be that good well into his 30s.

Last year, Lebron was one missed Ray Allen shot from being a laughing stock again....but now he's the GOAT.

OK....

[QUOTE=Rondooooooooooo]MJ's game was much more aesthetically pleasing than lebrons. Even if somehow lebron matches mj with his achievements, he will still not be the goat.....[/QUOTE]

Rings
FG%
Aesthetic Pleasure

Some equation of the above variables = GOAT

Perfect response to OP :oldlol:

OP, LeBron is a beast but their playoffs stats tell a different story.

"Go back to the 1989 playoffs when the Bulls were big underdogs to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Bulls went up 2-1 in the best of five series with Game 4 in Chicago. It came down to the last minute and all Jordan needed to do was make a free throw and the Bulls clinch the series and go on to the next round. Miss and they go back to Cleveland for the final game.

You conviniently omitted what happened in game 5 :oldlol:

I think we can agree MJ more than made up for those missed FTs with The Shot :rockon:

BTW, I'm not dogging Bran for missing a FT, or any player for that matter.
