To never be an underdog in finals with his swag demeanor

Lebron has been underdog 4-5 of the finals series and Mavericks had an almost even ELO rating

Jordan played on the better team every time and "managed" to win his winnable games

I'm actually more inclined to call an underdog champ a goat versus a front runner .. maybe Duncan is goat for beating lebrons heat?

Paper champs isn't impressive to me

Rewritten, Jordan was 6/13 and LeBron was 8/12.

5 (arguably 6, depending on your opinion of the 2007 Spurs) of LeBron's Finals opponents have been better than any of Jordan's Finals opponents but that'll be dismissed by the 90s nostalgia crowd.

What kind of lighter fluid did you use to burn your Lebron jersey in 2010

Neither is anything Ohio-related, including LeDouche and the Buckeyes.

Jordan was never the underdog because he was Jordan.

Buckeyes beat one of the greatest teams ever in 2002

Sorry underdog winning isn't impressive to paper champ greatness.

Also I have never wavered in calling Jordan the GOAT this is more directed to the Lebron hate

Jordan wasn't favorite with the wizards which was his 14th season like this was for Lebron

The Jazz were favored in 98 and Jordan was the only all star on his team.

Ask yourself this. If you have the greatest player of all time on your team, how likely are you to be the underdog?

You're acting like the odds don't take into account the fact that Lebron and MJ are playing in the games

ELO ratings had bulls above jazz and way under warriors

Well that's great and all but getting to the Finals doesn't get you anything.

Prepare for an avalanche of downvotes from the 35+ crowd and/or dummies that do not watch basketball

So would the opinion of LeBron be different if he was 3-0 instead of 3-5?
