At Worse, LeBron Retires As the 2nd Best Player in NBA History

[2010splash]

This. I always have to laugh at these people still trying to put LeBron behind inferior players like Kobe, Chamberlain, Russell, Hakeem, etc. Its a ****ing joke and shouldn't be taken seriously

It's hysterical. These idiots contradict themselves over and over again.

If you ask them why Wilt (4x MVP and 2x Finals MVP) is ahead of LeBron, they'll say "dominance, stats, etc". They can't point to winning because he never won more.

Then when you ask them why Hakeem, Kobe and Bird are ahead of LeBron when you use the same "dominance, stats" argument, they'll say "championshipz!!!"

By 2015 or so:

Tier 1: Jordan, LeBron

Tier 2: Wilt/Kareem/Russell

Tier 3: Shaq/Duncan/Magic/Bird

Tier 4: Kobe, Hakeem

Bird and Magic tier 3, what an idiot.

The better question is why does OP care where Lebron ends up being ranked all time. It literally doesn't effect you. Is your life that sad that you look to other people's accomplishments for happiness?

But I have a feeling its going to be more of a 1A/1B thing with Jordan when all is said and done. LeBron is already a top 10 player ever after 10 seasons. Already has 4 MVPs and counting and is the best player in the league by about 3 miles. Who is going to to stop this Heat team for awhile? San Antonio played almost perfect basketball, hit several shots that looked like they came out of game of HORSE, and they still lost. Who is going to beat this Miami team 4 out of 7 times? Bulls? They couldn't even push the series to 5 games when Miami had no bench in 2011. OKC? No, because they trade superstars for Kevin Martin. Pacers? They got a damn good team, but does George take the next step? I don't think people understand this is just the beginning for the Heat. Once Miami reloads in 2014, its going to add more and more championships. LeBron's list of achievements just keeps growing and growing. I honestly don't see anyone stopping him or the Heat for awhile.

Name one other GOAT candidate who was outscored by an opposition bench played in the NBA Finals and we can talk.

Until then, Jeff, mods, your forum sucks balls.

[DJ Leon Smith]

Any GOAT candidates who were outscored by a Jason Terry-level player in the NBA Finals?

I'm waiting for your response. Thank you.

Serious. It's the truth son. No need to deny it. Magic, Bird, Hakeem, Kobe, Kareem and Russell were all great players in their own right, but all of them were clearly inferior to LeBron. You'd have to be literally blind to not believe LeBron is on pace to finish #2 all-time at worst.

4 MVP's and 2 straight Finals MVP's at just age 28. And that was with wasting his first 7 seasons on a Cleveland team loaded with turds. F outta here with this Kareem/Russell/Wilt > LeBron nonsense. Maybe in terms of career accomplishments, but they weren't better players. Besides Jordan, I'm inclined to say that nobody has been better than LeBron. And even with Jordan, it's pretty close.

[Kurosawa0]

I really think, for me anyway, the highest he can get is #3 on my list. Right now I have him at #7 behind, MJ, Russell, Kareem, Magic, Bird and Duncan. I can see him passing all of those guys except MJ and Russell.

[Segatti]

At worse Lebron is dying at this very moment. He'll be the 2nd best then?

A lot of fighting among the LBJ ranks.

What a worthless thread.
