LeBron thinks MJ get's too much credit for his 6 rings

“I don’t think MJ ever had a Game 7 in the Finals. And people say ‘Oh, well he was able to close it out early’ and they act like he just did it all on his own. They forget about the shot by Paxson on the left wing.

You want to know the crazy thing? In that particular game in Phoenix, MJ didn’t even have the ball in his hands. Pippen brought the ball up, Barkley went for the steal, Pippen threw it down to Horace Grant and that got the defense (out of place) because Barkley went for the gamble. They rotated to Horace Grant, and Horace Grant threw it to Paxson. MJ didn’t have nothing to do with that play.”




Ha. LeBron looks stupid after this one...

Lebron is slowly realizing he isn't gonna win 6 rings... His best shot at topping Michael is to downplay his 6 and boost his 3.

One thing I think is true is that if you don't blame Mike for losing to the Pistons three years straight then you have to give credit to the whole team when they do eventually win.

He kinda does have a fair point, tbh. But, he should've known that saying it out loud was a mistake.

I wish the Pistons had done to LeBron what they did to MJ.

You'd think a supposed great player like LeBron would understand presence on the court stands for something. Just because MJ doesn't touch the ball on that play, that doesn't mean he didn't contribute to it by absorbing defensive attention.
DUHON to others as they DUHON to you.

Why is he so obsessed with passing or competing against Michael Jordan?

No other all time great player was that obsessed with that
