ALL-TIME LEADING SCORER 👑
THE MF GOAT🐐
why is bro acting like lakers is not 3-4 games away from 6th seed
and without lebron lakers prob would be dead last rn LMAO

Ill let you deduce who the GOAT is.
thats an even dumber argument.
rings is a team accomplishment. and even still rings are not determining of whos a better player because if so, bill russell is miles ahead of anyone else.
mvps are not indicative of the best player in the league. without a doubt lebron has been best player throughout the 2010-20 decade yet he only won 2 mvps. theres something called voter fatigue, we all know both mj and lebron deserved more mvps thus making it redundant as an arguement
refer to 1, you cant have more fmvps if u won less rings
u bring up ppg yet leave out important stats such as fg% and every other offensive statistic such as rebound and assists.
simply put lebron has brought a 19 win team to the finals twice. when jordan left the bulls won 55 games. that should speak volumes
people know MJ as the GOAT of basketball
no one know lebron unless they like basketball
Jordan can't even beat Magic & Bird in his early career
need to wait for Magic & Bird to get old to get his ring LMAO
he also stat pad his early career
just stop it please
Without Jordan, the second 3 peat doesnt happen.
The bulls didnt even look like making the playoffs till have came back from playing in the MLB.
His entire thread points to the fact that he has scored the most points makes him the greatest ever player.
Jimmy Anderson has the most test wickets of any fast bowler in history, doesnt mean hes the greatest of all time. Hes just played the most matches.....
ong he have pippen to carry his ass
meanwhile lebron:

stat padder likr CR7, these records dont mean much when actual trophies/pressure is on the line.
yeah? thats why lebron has the highest fg% in the clutch in the playoffs of all time right lmaoooo
CR7 has the most CL goals in knockouts, yet majority of them were non-impactful. as I said, stat-padder.
nope, I like em both. These players shine when their team helps them (as they should) but its not always possible, and when that happens, they struggle hard. They're still on the scoreboard like a lurking top fragging duelist but you and I know they dont win maps.
u realise what the clutch means right? shot to tie or lead. winning games in the highest stage is not impactful to you?
King LJ!! And he probably still good to go for another 3 years lol. No one will ever get near his score again in this lifetime. What an achievement. But Lakers might be not in playoffs this year tho kekw
idk why they did not go for the myles and hield trade LMAO
WB + 3 2ND RD PICK
I personally would choose MJ, just subjectively. Idk if MJ did anything notoriously better than Lebron. Both great shooters, consistent, versatile, and playing at a great level even at their age (remember that MJ came back from his 2nd retirement at 38 y/o and put pretty decent numbers and still left his mark on the court).
As of any sport, it's pretty difficult to choose the greatest of all time only based in comparisons, because sports evolve and there aren't that much examples where the "greats" play against each other (tennis could be one, Federer, Nadal and Djokovic are truly at least on the top 5 of tennis historically).
When people compare Lebron with MJ for example, they played in different generations, different rivals, different conditions.
Both are/were dominant at different times. Another example? Football: Messi, Pele, Maradona.
TL;DR: first paragraph, the rest is me going on and on.
common W
even for people doesn't know anything about basketball know MJ. MJ = Basketball
Exactly, i think subjectively that the impact they had in the sport and the status of being remembered are what put athletes on the "goat" category.
welp this debate wont end honestly
everyone have their own opinion on the GOAT debate
people said Kobe the GOAT/MJ the GOAT/Lebron the GOAT
its really pointless
Yeah, that's why i say subjectively, because i know people that do the opposite of what i said: comparing people with the same criteria even when they played in almost two different versions of the sport (like basket which at some point didn't have a 3-pointer area), and it's valid too.
And also something I like about lebron is, he just a simply great baller. He came to NBA and couple years later already dominate the scene until now, no scandal, no any negative things outside the court, no heavy injury that made him miss a whole season, and also have a good family around him too.
