just watched Bron score 25 straight pts en route to 48 points against the same Pistons team that shut down Kobe and ended the Lakers dynasty.


You must’ve missed the game where LeBron scored 8 points in the finals.

Yes he is. Lebron lacked the toughness and fight that MJ had. If he had the heart MJ had he would have been the GOAT. MJ didn’t go kissing all the other superstars asses begging them to come play with him. He just won with what he had.

Still, you know there’s a huge difference in the way MJ’s teams were built. Back then the competition was fierce as well. Opposing players didn’t suck up to each other, they fought as if they hated each other, as it should be.

I did watch where Jordan took only 8 shots in 46 mins against the Bad Boy Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals in pivotal game 5 of a 2-2 series. He quit on his teammates.



It was pathetic, Worse than Kobe vs Phoenix.

Funny how no one ever mentions that clutch performance.

The reason Michael Jordan is the greatest is one simple reason:

He flat out outworked everyone else in the league.

Thanks for the graphic and reminding everyone that the stacked Heat team (not 5, not 6, not 7 ... LOFL) lost to the Mavericks and LBJ played like a baby back bitch.

That wasn't hard to do when guys would smoke cigarettes and cigars in the locker room. The talent pool was much more shallow.

The 200+ million dollar contracts and basketball becoming a global game has made the talent pool so much deeper.

Now there are talented players on almost every continent.
