When he plays 82 games in a season. Something he has never done in 14 seasons that Jordan did 9/15 seasons.

11/15 over 80 games

About ten years ago when it was obvious to anyone that isn't a moron.

He won't surpass him. There is more to Jordan than his stats and titles. He changed sports forever. He is the most influential and important athlete in our lifetimes.

The only person I would say that is close to him is Tiger.

I guess when this happens...



As Larry Bird said, you can't compare eras, you can only compare success.

The greats make it happen.

Bird and Magic came into the league and dominated from Day 1. Bird had it more difficult, Boston stunk when Bird got there. Way worse than Brons early Cavs.

The fact that LeBron lost in the Finals is reason enough for some to never consider him. That kind of logic is a lost cause.

Last year when LeBron have what maybe the best finals performance of all time... I hate to say it because I am not and never have been a LeBron fan, but he is indeed the greatest.

I'll never understand this line of thinking. Is there something wrong with getting to the finals and losing?

If LeBron wins 5 titles, and loses 5 times in finals. Would it have been better if he lost in the ECF instead in 3 of those years?

Lebron isn't even better than Bird, much less MJ.

So impressive. Jordan playing less than 20 games twice in a season, taking a year and a half off, and retiring for 3 years at only 35 was so heroic.

He still hasn't crossed sports yet. When he goes to play tight-end in the nfl he can be in the conversation.

Never. He's the 2nd best player ever. Weird that people are offended by that. He does things better than Jordan did, but Jordan was the better basketball player.

I agree that his finals last year was up there with MJ. It's hard to imagine anyone playing better than that.
