Giannis says LeBron is the GOAT

In the meantime, James’ already untouchable status as one of the greatest ever to play only continues to rise — among his peers if not among the general public.
“Some guys might say he is No. 2, but other guys like me, I say he is No. 1, and he’s still going,” said Giannis Antetokounmpo, putting it plainly that he believes James is the best NBA player ever, ahead of Michael Jordan.
Jordan typically is the favorite in that barbershop argument — he beat out LeBron as greatest, according to a panel of NBA experts at The Athletic two years ago. Last year, in The Athletic’s annual player poll, Jordan again won the vote, but more players than ever picked James over Jordan.

Michael Jordan is the best. LJ is definitely top 8 though

Poor man’s Lebron says Lebron is the GOAT. More news at 11

Giannis thinks that because he luckily never had a chance to get owned by MJ.

This is one discussion where the age and experience of the media is a positive. They witnessed Jordan during. These players never played against or really saw what the big deal about Jordan really was. It'll be the same for Lebron in 20-30 years.

I'm approaching 50. Lebron James is the best basketball player I have seen, as in, he can do more things on the court better than anyone else. Now, if someone wants to say Jordan is more of a winner, or some other subjective ranking, then have at it. I'll stay out of that argument.

My biggest gripe with the MJ supporters is that their only argument is “6 Rings!” If all you care about is rings Bill Russel is the GOAT. They ignore the fact that Lebron blows MJ out of the water in just about every other category. Statistically it’s not even close, analytically it’s not even close. Lebron is the only player in history to be listed at all 5 positions, while being able to guard all 5 positions. People forget that Jordan had no team accomplishments, before Scottie Pippen arrived, along with the best Basketball coach of all time. Lebron has taken steaming piles of shite to the Finals.

Giannis was a zygote when Jordan was in his prime.
Posted on 10/27/23 at 10:25 am to Bench McElroy
Giannis was born in 1994.

Giannis is too young to remember MJ. He's younger than me and I only remember MJ on the Wizards.

Well of course he did

Watching Durant own LeBron in the finals was a sight to see

At worst, LeBron is #2 behind Jordan.
