one in Cleveland each. LBJ cant win multiple in Cleveland owner will not spend the money.
Now Miami LBJ could have won over and over again like MJ did in Chicago.
MJ in my book is the greatest of all time. He made the game look like a ballet he was so smooth.

LeBron- Six titles
Jordan- Four titles (Three that LeBron won plus 2011)
But I dont know if MJ beats the warriors. That Cavs team would have fricking sunk without the assists and ball movement Lebron brought to that team

Yea I guess Jordan won lots of playoff games before Pippen. Also the games best rebounder in Rodman didn't help. Jordan had a super team.

He technically won only one (rookie against Bucks-great team that decade) playoff game before Pippen, Grant and Jackson joined the Bulls, Jordan was basically one-manning it at that point.

Jordan was too young to be president in the 60's

Lebron teams in Miami were much more talented than Jordan’s. Barely squeezed 2 rings out of that
Swap Jordan for LBJ and Miami loses to SA both times.

Lebron would have absolutely wrecked shop in the 90's.
Those players never saw anything close to that combo of size, speed, athleticism, and skill.

quote:No MJ just had an entire roster of teammates in his last season with combined salaries of 28.1 million while MJ made 32.14 million. And Scottie Pippen was 3rd team all nba, his 7th selection, and he only made 2.775 million that season. Could you imagine LeBron playing with someone as great as Pippen while making 11.3 times as much?
He was on a good team sure but the Bulls didn’t have lunch and decide to all take shorter contracts to allow them to come together.

I think LeBron would have one less than Jordan did with the Bulls and Jordan may have one more than LeBron had in his career with Cavs and Heat.
Do you know how pathetic the Bulls were in the mid-80's?

They weren't even on WGN they sucked so bad.
28-54
27-55
30-52
Get Jordan
50-32
Flipped the script.
LeBron proved he needed some heavy hitters to win a championship in Miami.
Jordan just grinded it out.
Jordan won them with Bill Wellington, Horace Grant, Jim Paxtson, Bill Cartwreight, Will Purdue, B.J. Armstrong.
People complain LeBron has nobody at Cleveland? Shite, look at Jordan's Bulls.

That was the year they added Jackson to the coaching staff and Pippen and Grant to the roster, before those acquisitions the Bulls were a losing team that somehow made the playoffs annually with Jordan as the lone wolf so it's not like he executed the winning turnaround right away, not detracting anything away from Jordan's prolific performance those years but we have to be factual here.

Lebron would leave the Bulls the first time he doesn't win a championship, and then go follow one his buddies on a better team.

Jordan is better. Always will be.

Incorrect. If we're strictly talking basketball.
Posted on 4/19/18 at 8:44 am to TbirdSpur2010
So tell us why subjectively why LeBron is the better player? Since you’re so sure.

How about you tell me how swapping LBJ for MJ changes the outcome of any of the Spurs/Heat or Cavs/Warriors Finals?
Like I said, you keep all else equal, and SA is back to back champs in '13 and '14. Easily. I'd hazard a Warriors 3 peat, as well.

There was one guy you're missing. I'm trying to remember his name. Oh that's right, Scottie pippen.
Goddamn you're a terrible poster.
Posted on 4/19/18 at 10:20 am to TbirdSpur2010
THanks for ducking and proving my point. You can not prove either of them are better than the other. All else is opinion. But people speaking in absolutes is crazy and you speak in absolutes on the topic.
