Who is your goat?
Nah bro MJ is the GOAT
He was winner
Most clutch player
Insane at defense as well
And had insane ball iq
Its ironic how you say MJ had the weakest era when LeBron farmed the terrible Eastern conference for years but still could rarely win
LeBron is lucky to play in such a weak era
MJ also had mamba mentality, never flopped, and actually tried on defense
Buddy you are forgetting those are all Western conference teams
LeBum got to farm all of the weak eastern conference teams and choked in the finals so many times
MJ had to go through the bad boy Pistons, the magic, the celtics all in his own conference before facing the rockets or jazz in the finals
And don’t act like NBA player today are better than they were in the 90s.
The two eras were completely different. The 90s were a rough, tough, era that favored the defenders with little to no 3 point shooting
Today’s game is full of soft, flopping, crybabies and refs call certain fouls a lot more. Today’s game is very score friendly
eastern conference teams were only considered weak because Lebron was such a dominant force, surely you dont consider the kg pierce rondo celtics "weak". Lebron singlehandedly dismantled multiple teams that couldve put up fights in the finals.
"Rockets or jazz in the finals" both of those weakass teams couldnt touch the conference finals in the 200s trust me.
NBA players today are much better than they were in the 90s lmao, that is how sports evolution works. 40 years from now players will be more talented than today. Put kyrie in the 80s/90s he would be accused of witchcraft trust me. Also stop talking like you watch basketball, you are 100% under the age of 20 and have not watched any 90s basketball to make the generalizations. Actually watch a finals game in the 90s, the level of play was much worse than what you would see now, defense hasn't deteriorated, its just that the offensive prowess of todays game is too much to handle.
i personally think Lebron is the goat, but that also has to do with the fact i wasnt alive to watch MJ. maybe i have a different take if i was alive during that time. its the same reason why you have 16 yr olds and younger that will say curry is the goat bc they never saw bron in his prime prime, instead they watched a curry and kd led superteam dominate for a few years.
