re: With talk of LeBron's last 5 game stretch being the best ever, lets compare it

For the 5 game stretch listed for MJ in OP, he had 1 game in that stretch where he scored 26 and shot 47%.

After going through every 5 game stretch posted in OP, there was at least 1 game where the player didn't score 30 or shoot at least 60%.

So when you consider that none of those great players listed in the OP have accomplished what Lebron has in 5 straight games, it's pretty impressive.

We can argue all day who is better than who blah blah blah. But if you love the game, no matter if you like that player or not, you should still respect when that player is playing historically great basketball.
