As someone who hasn't been watching the NBA for long, how good was LeBron in his prime compared to the guys now?

You do realize that Jordan was making the playoffs with 30 win teams while lebron missed them with 35 and 42 wins? Lol seriously?

38 and 30, but who’s counting?

But you want to compare those teams with the Heat, and use it as evidence of Jordan choking. Those teams sucked. Jordan was a rookie, and missed 64 games his second season. Then got swept. It’s comparable to the bad teams lebron played on his first two years.

You really think Jordan on the 2018 cavs would’ve fared any better against the Durant warriors? You’re kidding yourself if you do.

Prime Jordan? Swept in the Finals? Fuck no.

His father got murdered twice? That’s the first I heard of it.

He was 35 and coming off his second 3 peat. Krause had already said he was blowing up the team? What’s he gonna do, go to someone else’s team to ring chase? You don’t know Jordan very well if you think he’d ever consider that.

So just answer the question directly, was 2014 lebrons fault?

Was he the leader of that team? Did they get thumped? Then the answer is yes.

Plus Jordan won 6 rings in 15 seasons, what’s your excuse for the 9 times he didn’t even make the finals?

Lebron has played 16 full seasons and won 3 Championships. What’s your excuse for the 13 times he didn’t win?

I’m of the camp that making the finals is better than losing in the first round. Jordan lost in the first round 3 more times than lebron has. Actually, lebron has never lost in the first, so there’s that.

So you’re you’re of the camp that Participation Trophies are meaningful? Got it.

Why are you changing your argument now? Lol you said lebron has no argument for goat Over MJ, so why do hall of famers say he’s already the goat?

How am I changing my argument? I never said no one thinks he’s better. You’re really reaching there pal. You brought up the opinions of Hall of Famers as an argument for lebron. I simply reminded you that far more of them have Michael.

As if you determine that lmfao.

I don’t get to determine my opinion of who’s the GOAT? That’s weird. I thought i did.

I don’t think anyone cares about what a Jordan Stan with the inability to not be biased has to say on the matter

I don’t think anyone cares what a lebron stan with the inability to not be biased has to say on the matter

lmao

This tells me you’re getting upset.

I’ll stick with my opinion which is also shared by hall of fame players and coaches.

I’ll stick with mine that is shared with 10 times the number of Hall of Fame players and coaches

But it’s good that you think so highly of your self tho I guess.

Says the guy doing the exact same thing. Nice try, son.
