Lebron's best friend (Carmelo) 'We all know MJ is the GOAT'
LeShannon Sharpe reacts. And like a typical person whose hurt, he starts going into totally different reasons as to why Carmelo said such a thing. At first it's, that's his boy, it's hard to see one of the boys as the greatest of all time. And then it's not because that's his boy, but because Carmelo is jealous of Lebron.
He's just throwing things out into the air, because he doesn't care about the truth, he just wants his position to be right. I see it all the time on ISH.
Carmelo. Another one.
I think that by "We" Carmelo means his whole crew. From Lebron, to Wade, Chris Paul. They all think Jordan is the GOAT.

Jordan's best friend Charles Oakley:
"Everyone says Michael’s greatest. But LeBron is a better athlete, and he can do more than Michael on the basketball court."
You know how it goes with some friends - some kiss your butt, some are honest with you, and some are actually frenemies.
Some of Bron's other BFFs have already come out and called him GOAT - Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye - and both of them are more intelligent than Carmelo, don't you think?

Yeah, that was from 2013, when Lebron was at the top of the world, and the hype was at its highests. Here's are other parts of that quote.
"I wouldn’t put [James and Jordan] in the same conversation."
"It took a while for Michael to win championships too, but they have a different swagger, a different demeanor. If I would compare anybody to Michael Jordan, it would be Kobe Bryant. Point blank. I know LeBron well; he don’t have what Michael have so I’m not even gonna discuss that one."
" To be a superstar [LeBron] has to go back to his fundamentals… work on his post game, work off the ball."
What Oakley means by Lebron can do more is based simply on Lebron's ability to accumulate stats, at the expense of his teammates. Which automatically causes people to think that Lebron is doing it all, Lebron Ball. When in reality his team would be better off if he didn't hold the ball for so long, played off the ball, allowing his teammates to be better able to play to their own strength, rather than things going down hill when the main piece of Lebron ball sits down on the bench. And then it's like, "Omg, they can't do anything when Lebron sits."

In the Lebron ball system everybody has to adjust to Lebron, they have to be aware of Lebron at all times. I forgot which teammate said it. And no he didn't use the term Lebron Ball. Such a style is going to get you a lot of wins, and even get you to the Finals a bunch of times when playing in the weakest conference in sports history. It's very effective because Lebron is good at what he does, but it's very flawed, it's just not going to translate to a sub .500 Finals record. And the Finals victories that you did get where due to what can be described as lucky circumstances.
When Lebron sits, the team goes to...
Compared that to a Jordan style player, who has the ability to play to their teammates strength. Where someone like Scottie Pippen averages similar numbers to when Jordan is not playing and when he does. Such a player who plays at that high of a level is just going to win more often than not.
Lets say Jordan and Lebron are equally as good. Lebron ball will equal sub .500 Finals record, Jordan's style will equal greater than .500 Finals record.
The Lebron ball systems in a sense steals stats from Lebron teammates. So Lebron averages more assists than Jordan, but his teams are rarely at the top of the league in assists, while Jordan led team are always closer to the top.
