Micheal Jordan pointing out the obvious about Lebron James :mjlol:

[Paradoxical Tiger]

I don't know wtf you're trying to say jit. LeBron averaged so much cause of the context he played in. That context being a softer league, less calls, more flopping, etc. I mean...the NBA had to change rules so players like Harden couldn't keep drawing fouls from braindead refs. This is the context that your GOAT plays in?

If Jordan played in that same context, add at least 10 points to his average.


A current NBA player is telling you its easier to score in the league compared to Europe and your response is, "yeah but Jordan averaged 30 points because the league wasn't so soft"....what?? lmao

No he averaged 30 because he played against TRASH. That’s the KEY context that your dumbass doesn’t want to acknowledge. Top-Down basketball organizations have improved drastically since the MJ era

Completely unprompted and fabricated thread. The insecurity is amazing really. People really clinging now that James is the all time scoring leader. Its only going to get worse as he continues to solidify himself in the top 10s of so many stat categories.

By the time this dude retires haters gonna be working full time jobs to discredit him.

I'll say this though, as someone who watched BBall through the 80s and 90s, the idea that a mf built like Lebron James would have had trouble in the 'physical' era is laughable as fukk. All the push offs and shyt they allowed back then? nikkas like Lebron have the strength and size to ragdoll 90% of the league, and he absolutely would have, and the refs would have allowed that shyt.

Man shut up Lebron be throwing temper tantrums when he gets touched it ain’t about his size it’s his mindset. You really think Lebron would be banging on folks back then when he won’t even do it now

Jordan faced harder teams in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Lebron dominated when the east was weak. The scouting report on MJ simply said "Good Luck"

not really bron just made these teams look weak

 

[boriquaking]

Jordan is superior, but Lebron is a one in a lifetime talent.

Jordan Kobe Lebron in that order for me personally.

But i’m also a child of the Bulls era.

Fully understandable he'd feel that way. Same reason people say they'd rather be blown out than lose a heartbreaker. Because the closer you get to something the more it hurts when you don't get it. But that's emotion and hurt. But in no way does that make logical sense. And we all know it. Which is why it remains a stupid argument.

Arguments do not have to be bereft of emotion to be logical or make sense. One could argue that people saying LeBron is the goat is due to them having an emotional attachment to his journey in the NBA. That's certainly how I see it and why terms like Bronsexuals exist. Because his fans can't even acknowledge his short comings because of how emotionally attached they are to him either because of nostalgia or ignorance of his predecessors.

So wrong. More like the opposite. MJ would average 50 and LJ would get beat up and break down before this long ass career. He'd be even more shook to engage, would be mentally victimized by the likes of Rodman.

Bron bigger and stronger than Jordan…. But he’d get beat up and broken down?

Honestly…. I think he would be fine….. people don’t take in consideration that if he was in that era…. More than likely he’d grown up playing that same type of ball with those “abusive” guys so he’s more than likely be used to it

Jordan today would probably be Luka, Prime Harden or Devin Booker status

And those guys probably could average 50 if they wanted if we being honest.

Jordan wouldn’t be as good as Zion though

[SadimirPutin]

Boy Bron breaking this record has OP deep in his feelings

Son breathe and go watch your old VHS tapes ....... or write a letter to MJ...

Its gon be alright

 

[spliz]

Stop comparing goats from different eras. Jordan was the best at his time and LeBron is the best now, Jordan wouldn't be the best today and LeBron would be all-time great back then because of how the sport has progressed, it makes no sense to compare them. shyt the fact that it's even an argument proves MJ isn't the goat.

nikka fukk outta here. Lol.

U don't know shyt bout basketball.

 

[BobbyWojak]

nikka fukk outta here. Lol.

fukk you fakkit I don't see why you gotta be all emotional about it instead of participating in the discussion like everyone else

 

[spliz]

You old heads are bats shyt insane if you think MJ would average 50 when the greatest shooter of all time in Steph couldn’t even average that shyt

Steph ain't the greatest SCORER tho. That's the difference. MJ has more ways to score than Steph. And is just all around better on and off the ball.

 

[spliz]

How are they better because they play in high definition?

Only thing they can do is shoot more 3's period no one has a post game and no one plays any defense

Basically.

 

[spliz]

fukk you fakkit I don't see why you gotta be all emotional about it instead of participating in the discussion like everyone else

Cause it was stupid as fukk and didn't deserve a full discussion. Lol

 

[DrexlersFade]

Cause it was stupid as fukk and didn't deserve a full discussion. Lol

What happened?

 

[BobbyWojak]

Cause it was stupid as fukk and didn't deserve a full discussion. Lol

Then move on instead of running in here like a little bytch, you really think you're defending the legacy of a man you will never meet fukking pathetic
