MJ VS LEBRON VS WHOEVER THREAD

[marcush]

Magic with 5 rings. He’s better than Lebron. Who else?

[freethedevil]

Outside of perhaps Tom Brady stans, Lebron stans have got be some of the most insecure fans about their boy in American sports.

Ironic from the Jordan fan whose attacking a non-homogeneous group of people because his airness has been slandered.

Jordan himself seems insecure and threatened by lebron, but I don’t get what’s insecure about a debate if anything it’s jordan fans that are too insecure to even open their minds up for debate

[marcush]

Why would MJ be worried about a 3 ring guy?

Jordan minds his own business away from the public.

Because the 3 ring guy has appreciable greatness independent of living in russell and kareem's shadow. Jordan really doesn't.

jordan only made the finals 6 times playing inferior teams.

That's straight up not true. In 91 and 98 the Lakers and Jazz were the favorites to win it all. In 93 it was a toss up at with a lot of people thinking the Suns were the better team over the back-to-back champs.

In fact before the 91-92 season half the experts selected the Blazers.

People who have no idea, tryin to make threads. TS is probably Nick Wright.

[J-Wolves]

The GOAT MJ is 0 wins and 6 losses vs Larry Bird in the playoffs.

, you will never erase 2011.

WHy do final runs need to be erased. Though I'd understand why you wouldn't want to consider sustained excellence, seeing that it basically nukes any argument jordan has for GOAT

2011 erased ? Cause lebron lost in 6 to a team hitting on ALL cylinders. Swept the defending back2back champion lakers, beat the spurs ? Beat okc in 5? Give them props but takes nothing away from lebron

All the props in the world to the Mavs, one of the greatest finals runs ever. LBJ on the other hand, arguably one of the worst finals appearances of any GOAT candidate ever.

Favorites or not isn't relevant, that the worthy-less lakers wouldn't have competed with any of LBJ's final opponents and the blazers may have had a chance against only two is the far more compelling point. It isn't a mystery why Lebron had the objectively far more valuable career while winning less. If jordanites insist on acting like it is tho, they're welcome to reconcile that confusion with how they compare mj to kareem or russell.

If only he had 7 great final performances to boast about...

According to this thread, isn't Robert Horry one of the greatest?

Did you mispell Russell?

Jordan's bulls coasted to contention without him, Russell's celtics were average in his absence.

Do you have like, any concept of history?

I wouldn’t have thought a low usage player like Horry could be one of the greatest....... but you are entitled to your opinion.

How nba teams were in playoffs in 1960s. 6? It’s like UCLA winning all those NCAA titles. While a great accomplishment. Still less competition. Less playoff rounds to fight through.

Roll your eyes all you want, but I’ve admitted on numerous occasions that I think Lebron has passed Jordan, when you consider the totality of their resumes in comparison to each other.

This entire thread is a microcosm of Lebron fans’ insecurities. By the way, I’m a Lakers fan, not a Jordan fan, but perhaps I should assume you are one of those insecure Lebron stans, since you incorrectly assumed I was a Jordan fan?

If you want to call copper more valuable than diamonds because it makes you feel better then I’m not going to try changing your mind.

I didn’t say he didn’t have other great performances, I just said his worst one sticks out like a sore thumb.

So why try to downplay how impressive it is that Jordan went 6/6? I’ll tell you right now, I don’t think Lebron would have done the same if put in Jordan’s position.

You can assume what you wish. At least I addressed someone specifcally, you just extrapolated a baseless conclusion about a massive portion of people from a handful of posts/users, a decent portion of which may or may not be serious.


Why exactly would lebron stans be inherently predisposed towards insecurity than like, any fanbase ever?

For the record I'm a Giannis-stan. And I'll be delighted when he sweeps the **** out of Lebron in the finals(assuming siakim or embid don't save lebum's skin)
