i'm not the one taking the best 50 game stretch as evidence that he's better than someone who did it for his entire career. Lebron is neck and neck currently with what Jordan continued over his entire career. this includes Jordan on the way down. But, it is only comparing to Lebron on the way up.

Give Lebron until his retirement and then make this comparison. Like every other player before him, Lebron's stats his last few years will lower his overall numbers and we will see if he is still neck and neck with Jordan.

actually neither am I.

Not sure why you're arguing with me if you don't read my posts to know what my stance is lol.

PER is a dumb stat to track the historical performance BEFORE it existed. Widely used stats affect play for some of these stat hungry players. I'm sure if the 60s-90s players were as stat obsessed as today, some of those players would have better stats.

It's like trying to judge 3pt shooting of today against players shooting that same distance before the 3pt shot existed.

Stats lead to greater rewards for players now much more than they did then.
