So that's a white flag, I take it?

So you have Russell over Jordan, right? Havlicek, too, right? And Bob Cousey?

Kobe was more skilled, won more in a tougher conference. LeBron was a better athlete.
Next in line, please.

Is wilt better than Russell? I’ve only asked multiple times. Your tactic is overused and a sign of weakness.
And white flag? Im here to teach y’all SFPJ.

Funny how you've dodged my question nearly 10 times, and I answered your initial question but you're still dodging mine and asking me follow up questions.
Why can't you answer? What gives?

Lebron was by far the best player in Miami and Cleveland. This is not debatable.

Blowing a 2-1 lead in 15 and in 11?
Lebron deserves criticism for 2011. I wont deny that. But if you want to go that route, let's not overlook 2003, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 11, and 12 for Kobe then.
Also for 2015, you don't want to talk about that. Lebrob was without his 2nd and 3rd best players. Even still, he was easily the best player on the court, so much so, they awarded FMVP to the guy who defended Lebron.

You can't just wipe out that season from existence. Whether you like it or not. It happened. Under the rules at the time, the Lakers won.
If you do want to wipe it from existence, let's just wipe out all of Bill's championships, etc. After all, these were won when there were only 8 teams in the league. So it can't be equal to other playoffs.

I think he's the Wilt Chamberlain of his era.
He's an all time great player. Physically dominant. Strong. Fast. Big. Ability to score, rebound, and pass. He's won championship games. Played very well for multiple franchises over a long period of time.
But he will arguably go down less accomplished than he could have been especially in championships. His leadership therefore has been questioned when the most deeply ingrained memories of fans will include the times when he came up short.
And he's clearly insecure about his place. He should be above that given his accomplishments.

We are talking about basketball. So the subject matters, not the “narrative”. Please keep up.

Are Roger Federer and nadal the most overrated tennis players according to the MSB?

Why would you include Havlicek and Cousy? Just further illustrates that you can’t be objective. There’s definitely a strong argument for Russell but you’ve left out large parts of what I posted which like everything in your argument is misleading to put it nicely.
