I bought this a few years ago and it has the flu game in its entirety along with four more of his greatest games. It also has all of the specials released from SI

I don't see how I am a Lebron hater by that comment. I actully like his game, but from your comments leads me to believe you were not a spectator of basketball in mid 80's and 90's. Now how about become a fan of the game and take off the Lebron shades


Their is no possible way you're a basketball fan if you think MJ has had 12 better playoff games better than Lebron's 40/18/9 or Lebron's 25 straight against the Pistons

I can give you two right off the top of my head MJ against the Knicks when the Knicks were a 2 seed. Fresh off of retirement, 55pts and his FG pct was over 50%.

Then his 69pt game against the cavs. FG pct was over 60% he also had 18rebs 6 asst and 4steals. That's just two, not to mention the 50pt game he had as 38yr old with the wizards but that off the topic because it wasn't a playoff performance.

Lebron is still young this maybe the start of something really good for him. At this point his body of work will over shadowed by MJ's, but he still has time. I also think he will get his first ring this yr but he is gonna have to carry the load.

I think we were discussing playoff moments.

Verlander was wrong to say MJ never had games like Lebron's 2.

You were wrong to say MJ has had 12 better.


Debate settled.

I never said he had 12 better........I never said that the kid wasnt good, I actually hope he wins a ton of rings so people can get off his back.

every thread. every single fricking thread. you two ruin.


i don't think anyone on this board would mind if you two had your very own thread, locked to others, where you could talk all about how great LeBron is and how he's your hero and how's he's the greatest basketball player to walk the earth.

we get it. stop fricking up threads.

I am not comparing them as players but as far as individual games go. Lebron's 07 game 6 vs the Pistons and game 4 against the Pacers are better than any MJ playoff game

Do me a favor, go reread all my posts in this thread, then you can come apologize and tell me about how much of a fool you were for posting this.

Thanks.

Reading escapes you, but at least try.


For the love of God, I was actually DISAGREEING with Verlander, but you're so busy with your Lebron hatred, you didn't even realize that.

His flu game was my favorite. Watching Jordans career was great for sports fans of the era. He was a star you could count on to deliver, count on to sell out every night.

Thats last season together they traveled like Rock Stars. I remember reading that several hundred tickets were sold in Atlanta for seats that couldnt even see the floor. Fans interviewed said they just felt like they had to be there. He was the star among stars. I believe they sold out every away game that last season.

Every intro seems like a cheap imitation to this imo.

Gives me the shivers. The 80's and 90's were basketballs glory years. Never to be matched again in so many ways.

People saying Lebron is better aren't old enough to remember MJ. Verlander is sounding stupid in here.

Thanks for not going all "Klark Kent" and erroneously lumping me in with him.
