This is my problem with Bron. He's the modern day Wilt. How is in there at the top 3? Let alone surpass Jordan?
The dude has been in the Championship finals 5 out of 11 times in his career. Wilt, twice in his 14 year career and Jordan 6 out of his 15 years with Lebron having quite a few more to go. All he needs is a couple of more imo. TBT, I was never a big Lebron fan, but he's made a believer out of me.
Wilt got to the finals 6x as well ... he just only won 2x like Lebron. Except he kept losing to Bill Russell and the Celtics.
Lebron keeps losing to an over the hill Duncan and Dirk.
Lebron also hand picked his teammates, twice now, to play with other all-stars/superstars and jumps ship as soon as he realizes the team is dead in the water. He also plays in a weak eastern conference who's biggest rival is the pacers who has no superstar (Paul George is not an offensive superstar) and the Bulls who's own superstar hasn't played in 2 years.
Lebron has disappeared way too often in the finals for him to be anywhere close to Jordan. It's like the pressure just overwhelms him and he just disappears when the going gets tough. Lebron is a front runner and crumbles with adversity.
