Why because not everyone is bowing down to your king lebron?


King James is the nickname.. King LeBron means nothing. C'mon, keep up.

Yeah, it's been fun to see reactions on either side. Some angry, some funny. Are you not having fun?

Wilt and OJ have mentioned that he has called himself the best ever to them.

Jordan trying to be humble while releasing the last dance, an entire documentary about marginalizing the impact of his teammates. So bad that his wing man Scottie now doesn't talk to him.



“Wilt and OJ have mentioned that he has called himself the best ever to them”

Thats comparable to James having his wife call him the goat on tv?? James is so insecure about himself he would actually be the one writing “from the greatest” on shoes just to make himself feel better.


If you think Jordan is humble then you don't know him at all. Are you even a fan?

Well, yeah but that's where the douchey part comes in. Lots of guys in sports history who are egomaniacal narcissists. The difference between being one who's likable or unlikable is discretion or charm. So either being discreet about your narcissism disorder, or being funny and charming about it.

Like Muhammad Ali, he was charming, articulate, and most importantly funny so he got away with the self-aggrandizing and theatrics. There was also that boxing is an individual sport. He also seemed like he didn't care what anyone thought, he was just doing him, and a lot of it was tongue in cheek to ham things up a bit.

Bron's the total opposite of that. Totally oblivious, insecure, corny as hell. Consistently insistent, apropos of nothing. I don't know who else would be a GDOAT candidate. I mean, MJ is an a-hole, and i'm almost positive is a bad person, which I don't think Bron is.

But just pure douchey, unlikable, insufferable-ness? Most likely to make you say "**** this guy" at any given time?

It has to be LBJ at this point.


Ali is the greatest smack talker of all time. Love how he was on top, he knew it, he told you and we still liked him. Just an amazing guy.

Lol dude, so what! It’s his wife! Why does HIS WIFE referring to him as the GOAT bother you so much? He’s provided her a lifestyle where she’s had it made since she was 17!

Are we at a point where marital support is something to criticize?

Why would he need to ask her, it's his wife. It's not like he's asking Wade (longtime Jordan fan) to say it.

Failing to steal a Taco Tuesday trademark from a family business then teaming up with a global megacorp to nationally campaign to make it free use is about as Michael Scott energy as a person could possibly get

He didn't need to.



Read on Twitter

The fact you think Jordan tweeted this and was your only example :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

LOL. The fact that you think Jordan doesn't have any say/control in what is said on that account is a joke. If a LeBron affiliated Twitter said that, you would have a heart attack.
