Which says a lot about LeBron; when he wins, he barely gets by. When he loses, it's in record fashion; either 3 straight losses, swept, or by holding the #1 and #2 NBA finals record of the largest margin of loss EVER.
The guy simply does NOT dominate.

Teams clearly figure him out..
That's why the Spurs only beat the Heat that badly in the 14' playoffs
The Heat beat the exact same Spurs the previous year, and Dallas almost beat them in the 1st round of 14'.
The reality is that if Lebron-ball was still putting the Spurs' defense on their heels in 14' like they did in 13', the Spurs wouldn't have gotten hot like that on offense.
The Spurs had simply figured out Lebron-ball, which no longer gave them any issues or wore them down defensively, so they had abnormally-high energy and confidence on offense..
it was like a boxer that realizes they can take the opponent's power.. they start teeing off like the Spurs did..
that's why all his Finals loss end in 3 straight, decisive defeats - teams simply figure out bron-ball and win 3 straight.. meanwhile, the inexploitable MJ and his goat scoring versatility never loses 3 straight for 8 yrs..

It is what it is
Re: Another reason MJ is GOAT *vid inside*
To be fair to LeBron though, he has only faced GOAT teams in the Finals...or so that's what his stans want us to believe. James is the unluckiest all time great in that regard, every team he has lost to is the GOAT team
Fact is, he simply doesn't dominate...he has nice stats but he just doesn't take games over like Jordan did, his Game 6 vs the Celtics in 2012 I believe is the closest he got to MJ in that regard but MJ had a ton of those types of games. He shouldn't even have been in that position of having to come back to win that series, those Celtics were old af.

The Spurs' 14' run was similar to the 91' Bulls when they blew away the 2-time champs.. But those Bulls aren't considered unbeatable, yet the media thinks the 14' Spurs are, since no one could've gone 4/4 in lebron's shoes (that's how it's reported)
It's a sham
MJ almost went 4/4 from 90-93' if not for Pippen's migraine.. that's without team-hopping for an extra all-star - you're supposed to go 4/4 with those Heat and I think various players would have
I also find it funny that the 16' win continues to get props despite the Draymond suspension and Kawhi's victory over the same core.. they're 8-10 in Finals games without Durant - how would they be a threat to Jordan, or a whole bunch of other guys/teams?
Im asking these questions rhetorically and I agree that lebron's game 6 vs Boston was a common dominant game from MJ
