I still think Lebron. I agree he is a baby that flops and cries.

but anyone that thinks he is too fragile to play in the 80s/90s NBA is nuts. Lebron is a beast.

Jordan might come into today's NBA and just light shit up....making him the GOAT

But the idea that Lebron isn't athletic/tough enough to compete in any era is totally biased

I've yet to meet anyone that was say, at least 15 years old when Jordan broke into the league, and watched the
entirety of his career, and then LeBron's - who says that LeBron is better than Jordan. Maybe you are the first.

Question: How old were you when Jordan was a rookie in 1984? Did you watch much basketball during the Jordan era?

Just curious...

LeBron is 3-5 in the finals. If you are looking for an excuse, you will say that he led teams there that didn't belong. If you want to face reality, if you are in the running for the GOAT, you don't go 3-5 in the finals. You also have to be able to take the last shot...AND MAKE IT...once in a while. He was the reason for losing to Dallas one year and he was lucky to get his third title in the comeback versus the Warriors. He also was lucky to draw OKC in one of his other wins. Why is Jordan v James even a topic?

It shouldn't be.

I was like pretty young when jordan was around. I was old enough. high school when jordan was winning championships.

I'm not arguing Jordan's talent or how great Jordan would be today. I don't even have a problem with people that think Jordan is the GOAT. He is definitely GOAT or at least in the conversation.

What I do argue is people that think Lebron couldn't play in Jordan's era. I agree it was physical and much different. But I think Lebron is the single greatest athlete in the NBA ever.
 

L5Y, USC is 4-0 vs SEC, outscoring them 167-48!!!

Michael Jordan surely is a legend, but as for his other activities... Well, you don't need many words to describe it.
