Sorry stats are just stats. Some are more important than others but the ultimate stat is winning. It is the only stat that is indisputable.
LBJ is a fantastic player but to be crowning anyone GOAT because he puts up crazy stats is silly. You're discounting plenty of qualities in great players that make them great by pointing to only paper stats. The 1 category that contains all of those qualities is the ability to win.
Does he have to win as many as Russell or even MJ/Kobe to be put in that conversation? Hell no. But he damn sure needs to win more than 1 or 2.
The sad part is that if the guy had 50% of the competitive drive that Kobe has he would probably have 4-5 under his belt and the GOAT label because he is that talented.
