At this point, its getting hard to deny LeBron is the best to ever pickup a Basketball

[McPiff]

If he really was what yall claim he is there wouldn't be this need to constantly prop up every little thing he does. His resume would just speak for itself.

The Lebron GOAT shyt continues to be the most forced thing in sports.

people did the same thing with MJ tho

 

[Everythingg]

I think it's impossible to compare, honestly.Their situations were too different.

This is cap.

There’s nothing that Bron does definitively better than MJ other than 3pt shooting and rebounding. With both being arguable in their own right as there wasn’t a focus on 3pt shooting then as there is now and Jordan playing in a time where there were 2 bigs on the floor when it comes to rebounding. He accomplished more in less time all while not getting to hop teams with players that fit his game. The only argument Bron has is longevity and playing a longer amount of time doesn’t make one the better player…

LMAOOOOO

LEBRON IS THE KING OF CONTROLLING NARRATIVES

THIS IS EXACTLY WHY HE TREATED THE IN-SEASON TOURNY LIKE THE NBA FINALS

HE KNEW IT WAS HIS LAST CHANCE TO CREATE A FORCED TALKING POINT FOR THE WEIRDOS WHO LIVE TO BOLSTER HIS LEGECY

PELS AND PACERS.. THATS WHO ELSE WAS TRYN

But it's so important the Lakers are hanging a banner for it!

No one who denies that LeBron is a better passer than MJ is even trying to look serious.

Who averages more turnovers between them?

 

[Sunalmighty]

Passing

he has better court vision than Jordan ill concede, but MJ is an underrated passer. NBA Finals history, Magic Johnson, of course is the #GOAT assist per game player.

Jordan is 2nd behind him when he averaged 11.4 assist per game against the Lakers. Matter of fact, Jordan and Magic Johnson are the only players in NBA History to average 11+ assist per games in the NBA Finals.

Jordan did it once I believe magic did it 5 times.

but someone is gonna read this post, come along today or tomorrow and add some wacky context on why Lebron DIDN'T average 11+ assists or why Jordan DID

 

[Sunalmighty]

Who averages more turnovers between them?

to be FAIR, lebron has been the primary ball handler for over 20 years so there is the reason he is all time leader in turnovers. higher usage rate, i think

im just saying

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Who averages more turnovers between them?

Probably the one who has the ball in his hands running the offense, dumbass.


Magic Johnson, Jason Kidd, Steve Nash, and John Stockton also average more turnovers/game than Jordan. Are they inferior passers too?



But Paul Pierce, Dominique Wilkins, Carmelo Anthony, Ray Allen, and Vince Carter average fewer turnovers than Jordan, so they must be better passers.

How ignorant is this?


Lebron is a better at:

3pt shooting
Rebounding
Passing
Court vision
Team defense (like Phil said, MJ gambled too much)
Defense on bigs
Defense on point guards



Jordan is better at:

Midrange shooting
Free throws
Ballhandling
Defense on shooting guards
Getting steals



I'd say they were about equal at driving and finishing, though MJ's ability to drive declined severely in his second run and was gone entirely in his third run, while LeBron maintains his even through age and injury. They're also about equal in post play (outside of midrange shots), though MJ used his far more than LBJ did because he played in a man defense era.

Same way that I can claim, "Well, MJ is supposed to be a better ballhandler, he's smaller!"

Either LBJ does it better than MJ or he doesn't. Basketball isn't graded on a fukking curve where you get extra credit just for being shorter.

 

[JP_614]

Imagine if Bron had a GM like Jerry Krause and a basketball mind like Tex winter and Phil Jackson. MJ had the had the best posse in the league

shorter? nikka, 3 INCHES SHORTER and LIGHTER in the ass. roughly a 35 pound difference between the two with mike at his heaviest in chicago and where lebron is now, and he has been HEAVIER than 250 i think around 260.
