He is his equal...and we're not gonna sit here and act like the gap between Jordan's and Lebron's passing isn't astronomical. Bron is top five there. Jordan wasn't even known for his passing when he played.

You can literally look up highlights and see that the gap is as wide as the grand canyon.
Lebron plays with the ball in his hands all the time. Jordan was mostly an off ball player. He briefly played Lebron's point guard/forward positon in the 89 season. When he played point guard for the first time he had 17 assists : Chicago Bulls at Portland Trail Blazers Box Score, March 24, 1989 | Basketball-Reference.com in game 65 and went on a stretch of 10 triple doubles in 11 games.

I think Lebron's career record for a game with the most assists is 19 and his second highest is 16. Jordan had 17 assists and 15 assists in the space of a week when he started playing the point.

Jordan had 31 triple doubles in his career and 10 of them came in a space of 2 weeks when he played point guard and had the ball in his hands all the time at the top of the key like Lebron has had every season since he was a rookie. Jordan and Lebron don't play the same position.

Jordan only played point guard for about 14 games in the 88/89 season but that was enough to boost his apg total that season to 8.0 assists. Michael Jordan 1988-89 Game Log | Basketball-Reference.com

If Jordan played that position all his career, we'll be talking about equaling or surpassing Oscar Robertson's all time triple double record.

My point is when Jordan played Lebron's position, he did it better than Lebron and also played all time great defense to boot.

How is LBJ Magic's equal as a PG?

Wait, so what makes you think he played it better? Because he had a game where he had 17 assists, and had triple doubles? By that logic, wouldn't Russ be a better point than LeBron? You're dropping stats, but I'm telling you to watch just a five-minute highlight video to show you that they're not close; LeBron is a much better PG, playmaker, passer, whatever you want to call it.

That "all-time great D" is also a fukking lie. Maybe for his position, I'll give you that. Who was he guarding?
