Remember when he pretended he wanted to play FB? They clocked him at 4.6, if you think that’s the fastest or one of the fastest NBA players ever you’re an idiot or in your case just a silly simp who worships another man.

Tide, you should know by now that choking in the Finals or losing to a team as an underdog means you are fringe top 10. In order to be the GOAT you have to lose in the first round or miss the playoffs entirely unless you are unequivocally on the best team. 1st Round losses are better than Finals losses, this is simple Jordanomics.

Derrick Rose was much faster than Rodman and Lebron shut him down with his speed. Rodman is not is the same conversation as Lebron. Stop with this straight ignorance.

Lebron single handedly beat a detroit pistons team every bit as good as the bad boy Pistons.

Off the court, yes, on the court, no. He is known for not being easy to rattle. Garnett and Bird might be the only ones in BB history who could rattle him routinely and not just wake him up. Prime Lebron would be a handful for the Worm. He could probably frustrate him in the paint (Dennis was known for being a lot stronger than he looked) and Rodman would definitely get his boards, but prime Lebron could just pull him to the outside and blow past him to the basket. Lebron's 3-pointers were not the threat in his prime as later in his career, but his range still had to be respected.

But he only ran a 4.6!

That’s called retard logic, it doesn’t follow at all and the statement isn’t even true. Wade and Lebron took turns to wear Rose down who’s much faster than Lebron btw. It isn’t even close. The fact that you dispute this proves you’ve consumed the overwhelming majority of your NBA viewing via 11 second Twitter clips and ESPN highlights.

The way I remember it Lebron would take him in the 4th and immediately end the game when Chicago’s offense stopped working because Lebron erased Derick Rose.

Proving sports media/writers and their awards are worth about as much as a hot take from MSNBC.


This is how it will be told while you look like the homeless guy on the corner saying LeBron wasn’t even that fast.

He didn't choke. He was rendered useless by a defender.

Amount of seasons failing to make the finals

Jordan - 9
Lebron - 13

The dreaded self own, Womp, Womp…..


I predict a 14th season for Lebron and a moved goal post which coincidentally is the Lebron argument.

This thread wasn't even about Lebron vs Jordan, but if dude wants to go there, it doesn't end well for James either

You just lost the GOAT debate with that dumb shite.

They’re close as scorers, as pointed out by your graphic. Lebron in much more efficient, though.

Lebron tied Jordan in career points in 1200 less shots.

I will type that again.

Lebron tied Jordan’s career point total in 1200 less shots.

You do not want to have a discussion on who the better scorer is. It’s probably LeBron.






Now, I don’t think you’re too dumb to understand the significance of this. So let’s talk about it. Let’s talk about how it’s possible for LeBron to tie their point totals with SIGNIFICANTLY fewer shots while you claim others are better scorers.

Which will put his numbers closer to MJ's. With the bulk coming after he turned 40. Lebron in season 23 at 43 years old is putting up better numbers than Jordan did at 39 in his 15th season.

There is no goalpost moving, Jordan and James are 1A and 1B all-time. Jordan had the better peak, but James has had the better career. Saying James is fringe top 10 is a take by someone with no ball knowledge and requires goal posts to constantly be moved.

James would absolutely destroy Rodman if both were in their prime. He was bigger, faster, more explosive, a better shooter, a better ball-handler... this is such a stupid topic and anyone who believes Rodman would keep a game of 21 within 10 with them both in their prime is just showing their basketball takes are not to be taken seriously. Lebron at 18 or 43 against Rodman in his prime would still win. The Rodman comps that would make for a fun 1v1 would be Paul Millsap or Draymond Green.
