The Kings Last Dance will be bigger than MJs Last Dance just like Space Jam 2 was bigger than the OG Space Jam.
If you ask me LeBron just seems to be better at everything than MJ was.

Space jam 2 was not even close to the original lol.
Lebron doesn’t have the “it” factor compared to Jordan. That’s the key difference between the 2

How's the kings last dance ending? Getting swept by the nuggets?

Except winning NBA titles.
So Bill Russell is your GOAT?

Then from his return to Cleveland until now. I think this part would also make the HOF. But I never heard of a player, who made the HOF by only playing 4 years. Did that ever happen?

1st Cavs stint definitely not.
The heat stint they were expected to win multiple titles, they only won 2. Kind of a disappointment.
The Cavs won 1, which was impressive while incredibly lucky at the same time. Bad timing running into curry.
The lakers won 1 in a bubble. The rest of the years were kind of underwhelming.
The Olympics is rather disappointing having a bronze medal.
The basketball hall of fame is rather a low bar but sure I guess you could make an argument for each. But each section is probably mired in disappointment and not meeting expectations with the team. I guess in totality some people see it has a goat tier resume though.

37.4 PER in 2009 playoffs, back-to-back NBA MVP and taking 2007 lottery team Cavs to NBA Finals is definitely not a Hall-of-famer type of run for you?
That 7-year stint was a much better career than atleast 99% of NBA players who played atleast a single game in history.

Yeah I'm thinking he's being disingenuous.

If any player had an ENTIRE CAREER of 4yrs total while going to the Finals in all 4yrs, winning 2 of 4 in MIA OR winning 1 of 4 in CLE along with the individual All NBA accolades etc we'd be talking about what the guy could've been but their career was cut too short.
