No More Lebron better then MJ arguments

Theres is no way in hell MJ would ever go like this and the way Lebron has gone out in other playoffs. 4-6 in the finals and thats with super teams he created. MJ would never get blocked like thay at the end of the game. Remember pass to steve kerr in game 6 of finals and wennington in double nickel game?  Lebron top 5 top 2 top 3 whatever but MJ the Goat!

the discussion was dead after his 2011 postseason performance. people have short term memory. everyone knows his entire legacy was built on cherry picking shots and stat padding. he has hurt the sport by normalizing flopping and crying. real shame.

Too be fair, Lebron is like 43. Not a Lebron fan but that's a fact.

 Jordan is greatest, James is number 2 because he is no where near being as good under pressure as Jordan was , he was killer too. That’s the big difference . James is a freak of nature that is very rare and special . 

@StumpTownStu

 Well 38 but whose counting   he went out selfish to end the game. AD wide open and drove in the lane with 3 guys. 

@Brooklyncapper

 You mean when MJ was 38 he wouldn't go down like this if you put him in this team?

He'll find a way to passive-aggressively insinuate it was someone else's fault.

@Brooklyncapper

 What was MJ doing at age 38???

Your mama.

Agreed. 

Mj over Lebron

End of discussion 

@jdukes0004

 No disrespect to your actual mother but you kinda walked into that one.

@RayRayK

 Facts to everything you just said. Jordan is a savage who wanted to rip your heart out. Didnt want to play with you wanted to beat you. Thats where my respect for him is lost. He pushed teams to bend to his will to put teams together and lost

@jdukes0004

 I know what he was doing at 35 going on 36 winning his 6th ring in 6 tries which quote frankly could of been 8 if his pops didnt get killed in 1993.

@Tailer187

 Who knows! He never lost a finals and never went to a game 7. What team during their run came close to beating them? Outside of Magic in 1995 after 18 mth layoff

@StumpTownStu

@jdukes0004

 MJ played for the Wizards when he was 38 to 40 years old.  He played a lot better than Lebron right now..

LeBron been swept THREE TIMES now

@nikon

 And lost in embarrassing ways!

This is the 3rd time Lebron got swept.  2 in the finals and now in the WCF.  You can say the first one against the spurs is understandable but I never heard of anyone who calls himself "THE GOAT" not win one game when it mattered to most.  Look at the last two Lakers possession he choked both time to tie or take the lead.  This is the man people are going to bat for? Ridiculous 

Lebron is the only "great" player i've ever seen that is not a killer when it matters, he turns into magic johnson and doesn't want the blame instead of the will to want to win more.. Kobe and Jordan were murderers, lebron is just a great athlete that has always run away from the ball when it's time to live or die. 

@jwheels86

 Facts 

How can anyone talk about these two in the he same conversation?  MJ was an assassin cleaner, killer instinct for winning.  We all know that if a Michael Jordan was around in todays NBA, his team would repeat after repeat.  Sad that no players today have a thirst for being the dominant player every night while on the court.  

MJ had to work hard for his success. LeBron it was handed to him on a platter. The few times he was able to come back from 0-2, or 3-2 deficit, he needed an outside influence. Otherwise he has a losing record when down 2 or 3 games in the playoffs. When the going gets tough he folds.

@Brooklyncapper

 Yeah, no question it's Jordan over James & I couldn't put Lebron over Bird though he has the stats & has played alot longer. The Finals that would've been epic & we missed out on seeing would have been the Rockets/Bulls in '94 had MJ still been there. Most folks think that it would have been another title for the Bulls, but I tend to not think so. Olajuwon always gave 'em fits & the Rockets led their h2h games in the reg season. Would have been a helluva series to see though & I can understand folks thinking that with Jordan's will to win & how great he was when it mattered most. 

Lebron is up there. I always knock him down and put him behind Jordan because he has never been a great point of attack defender. A good help defender, yes. Chase down blocks, etc but he has never been the guy to lock someone down like Jordan and Kobe.
