When will people accept that Lebron is better/as good as than Jordan

[MIAlien]

:on can. Lebron is not in the on the ball defending class of a Jordan. People trying to force that.

Let's Keep this in mind when discussing Lebron vs Jordan defensively: Jordan played in the handchecking era. Imagine if Lebron could use more of his strength and leverage by using his hands to defend a perimeter player. He would have at least one defensive player of the year award by now.

Now, the argument goes both ways. Jordan was an unstoppable scorer in the handchecking era. Imagine Jordan on offense without getting handchecked.

People confuse "greatest legacy" with "greatest player."

I watched all 6 of Jordan's chips and as great as MJ was, Bron can simply do more. It's really a simple fact of life, nikkas need to just stop being sensitive little bytches about the obvious truth though.

MJ didn't have the all around game Lebron has. Dawg quit it while you ahead. Lebron court vision, BBIQ, his ability to run an offense, his ability to attack the paint, his range, his efficiency without the Stern's MJ rules and his defense is all superior to anything Michael can do. Anything. MJ is dope, the ultimate showman, Lebron is robotical, like he's made out of a lab. But the labrat is better than the showstopper breh. He just has more talent and ability and he's more of a team player than MJ.

Bron doesnt have the offensive arsenal to drop 60 like Jordan lets be real. His scoring ability consists of crashing the paint, mid range shot, free throws, and binge 3's that he usually makes cause players play off him. Jordan is a far better scorer, its not even debateable. He was just more skilled in that aspect. Jordan shouldnt be faulted for lack of passing vision because that wasnt his mindset. He wasnt trying to create for his teammates he created for himself, and so far I can say MJ's strategy/outlook has been more conducive to winning than Bron's. If Bron has MJ's mentality, he doesnt lose to the considerably less talented Dallas Squad. And plus, its already been proven that when certain players focus their attention to passing, they can rack up just as many assist as Bron. Peep Jordan averaging 11 assist in a month, peep Kobe this year. Bron shouldnt get credit for having a passive mindset.

I'm almost embarrassed that you thought this was a worthy response.

Posts like these always got on my nerves. It's like you can't see your just a homer and then you want to call me out because well, it doesn't match your fantasy, NOT reality but fantasy of MJ. Maybe one day MJ will ask you to the prom.

doing more doesnt mean your better

Mike Vick can do "more" than Peyton manning with his running ability, does that make him better?

being more efficient doesnt mean your a better scorer either, it just means you carefully pick your shots. \

No he can't. He runs, and Peyton doesn't. But he's nowhere near Peyton any other QBing category. AT ALL.

Lebron is comparable or flat out better than Jordan in every facet of the game.

There isnt anyone in the league close to him right now. The gap is as wide as its ever been.

Do you really think he's dominated so far look at all the tingles hall of famers that were left by Jordan. Lebron may be the best in the game but he's nowhere near dominating. Jordan and the bulls best record all times in a season and 6-0 in final appearances.

Jason Terry?

Breh it was a team effort. Miami didn't have chemistry and they were redudant. Dallas had all the right pieces. They had the playmaker in Kidd. They had the penetrator in Barea. They had the scorer in Dirk. They had the true center who was good at garbage points and the PnR in Chandler. They had the tough center with a soft touch in Haywood. They had a good defensive specialist in Deshawn. They just had a lot of role playing pieces and the #1 scorer to make Miami pay. They also had a combine salary nearly 100 mil compared to Miami's 55 mil which was mainly the Big three, Haslem, and Miller who was hurt.

You doing too much. This is a game of match-ups. That's why the Bulls won 6. Not because of just MJ but because every match-up when they won the title, they were the better team and with the best overall match-ups. Each time, every time.

you gave every reason except for the most obvious one. The "best basketball player in the game" got held under 20 points THREE TIMES in the NBA finals. Save the team/matchup bullshyt for a dumb nikka. All these games were close by the way, so yeah having a 8 point outing makes a difference.

 

[King Biko]

Lets be honest....there are always going to be a lot of people that will never accept the possibility of someone surpassing Jordan. Jordan is the biggest/most popular athlete of all time. His prime was absurd. The 90's decade creates more internet nostalgia than any other era combined.

Then again, I doubt any one ever expected a 6'8 270 pound player with Jordan's athleticism and Magic's passing ability either.

There's no shame in admitting Lebron could become the best ever. He sure as hell has the talent.

No one is doubting that he could be better and has the body and skill set 2 be the goat but he has 2 prove it before we just give it 2 him and at this moment he's nowhere near the greatest basketball player ever. Maybe top 25

Jordan is a better scorer and defender. The 2 most important aspects in the game

The ONLY thin Bron does better is pass (and thats by prefence) and off-ball defense. Jordan was also a better rebounder for his position.

Averaging 6 rebounds as a 6'6 SG >>>> averaging 7 as a 6'8 SF

Jordan being a better defender is not a fact, it's debatable. Very debatable

And Jordan is a SLIGHTLY better scorer than Lebron. That's why I said comparable. Jordan just has a better jump shot which gives him a slight edge

Peyton is a million times better passer than Vick.

Comparison doesn't hold weight.

Doing what bron does against these zones and crazy defensive schemes >>>>>>>>>>>> Jordan's 1 on 1 play against slower defenders

You aint trying to say Bron is on MJ level in scoring are you... Defense also is a big gap. Bron should be compared to Magic not MJ just because the scoring aspect between them is that big

its hilarious. LeBron's BY FAR the best player in the NBA yet he isnt the best in any category in the game

Durant's a better scorer
Rondo and Cp3 are better passers
Josh Smith is the best rebounding SF
numerous better defenders

Jordan at one point was the best scorer in the league. Kobe at one point was the best scorer and clutchest. Kareem was the best rebounder. Bird was the best shooter. Magic was the best passer. What is Bron best at?
