Poll: 58% say Jordan is GOAT; 13% for LeBron

[Optms]

The difference should be even bigger, but i guess that's because of recency bias.

MJ is the GOAT but 13% is surprisingly low.

If anything recency bias is not doing any favors for James here. Had this been polled before the season I'm gonna guess it would have been something like 30-35% with Lebron as the GOAT.

His legacy has been secured since the Cleveland chip. Everything else since should be gravy and not used against him.

Surprised it’s not closer tbh, given the effects of recency bias and millennials who never saw MJ play.

But Lebron missing the playoffs in his first season in the West didn’t do him any favors.

never going to understand why everyone throws out the term millennials as "kids". I'm sure someone born in 1980 has no idea who MJ is...

Though nostalgia is far more problematic in decision making than recency bias.

Do you really think the people responding to polls about if Puerto Rico should be a states are following Lebron and the lakers closely?

[The_Hater]

The Lakers chapter is going to leave a dent. He made a bad choice of destination.

It won't matter much. Not unless you think those 2 years Jordan bricked shots for a Washington lottery team left of dent in his legacy. They didn't.

Every great player had their hiccups but when they retire and we start looking back, we don't generally count the twilight years against them.

I'd give it a go with a vegetarian meat substitute. They're pretty much just soy with some texture and salt.

Edit: Also not the same, but dessert pizza works.

I wish I could but I just can't get down with the substitutes I've tried*, and I've tried many. I'm hopeful for synthetics.

Spoiler:

chick'n nuggets are actually pretty good but that's a whole different food group from pizza

Not sure if Recency bias is stronger than Memberberries

Nobody can change my mind on this. Pineapple on pizza is fine (especially when paired with ham) as long as the underlying pizza (crust, sauce, and cheese) is good. So often, you get bad pizza that they just wing toppings on and that poisons people's view on the matter. When you go to a pizza joint for the first time, order the cheese and mayyyyyybe pepperoni. If that's not good, that establishment has no business throwing anything else on a pizza, let alone contrasting flavors, until they get the baseline down pat.

What makes or breaks pineapple on pizza is the sauce. It has to be just the right amount of tangy to offset the sweetness of the pineapple

Those are good. Also when I was a kid I ate meat but my parents were pescatarian. My mom used to swap fake bologna sometimes and I didn't realize til I got older and started using it on purpose haha.

Agreed that if your cheese pizza is trash your pizza is trash but outside of NY all pizza is trash so people have to eat toppings featuring pizza. That said pineapple on pizza is disgusting and 35% of America should be thrown off cliffs.

The Pacific Northwest has some passable pizza but you have to hunt for it. That joint around the corner? It's serving some BS, I'm afraid.

I actually like NY pizza... but Lou Malnati's >>>>>>>>>> all

I live in NC and we actually have good NY pizza here (at least near Charlotte) since half the people here are from NY/NJ.

I'm sorry but, if my pizza doesn't have any kind of meats on it, it's trash to me.

You only say this because you've never had good pizza. You know not of what you miss. Anything more than pepperoni dilutes the deliciousness of a great pizza.

Out here in Atlanta we have like maybe 2 decent pizza places and one good one. It's devastating having to go to a party and eat Papa freaking Johns which needs Garlic sauce to be edible.

That casserole isn't pizza.

The exact opposite really. Athletes are always more revered after they retire. Looking at the entire body of work for a player is always better than looking at something incomplete.

After Bron retires and hes' top 1-2 in career scoring, top 5-6 in career assists and he holds the records in a bundle of playoff stats as well, many people whocriticize him now will sit back and realize how incredible he was. Well maybe not you, but intelligent people who aren't biased. .
