Jordan is the GOAT, people just suffer from recency bias and want to see a player from their generation to be the best. LeBron is #2 no shame in that. When people rank you over Kareem, Magic, Bird, Hakeem, Russell and others then you know you had a fantastic career
Yup. As a Bron fan I've never needed him to be seen as the GOAT or better than Jordan. I only needed him to be better than Kobe.

Jordan's career/existence is just too singular and unique. No one can ever match it. He's like Babe Ruth. You can do similar things but he'll never be replaced....

There's money in stanning LeBron right now which is why white guys like Cowherd and Nick Wright do it. Nick wright got a fukking show on FS1 all because of the Bron stanning he's done.

Let the hot takes flow, after Bron loses again this year they'll reset his legacy again and come up with some ridiculous reason why he's better than the true goat.

:dwillhuh:

Wait, what? Why did you need to him to be better than Kobe? This sounds like a lot of Kobe haters who took on LeBron as a proxy, where they "needed" him to be better than Kobe, to keep their hate alive.

A lot of players older than Jordan say the same about him :ehh:
If somebody says no to you, or if you get cut, Michael Jordan was cut his first year, but he came back and he was the best ever. That is what you have to have. The attitude that I'm going to show everybody, I'm going to work hard to get better and better

Magic Johnson

If you look up the definition of greatness in the dictionary, it will say Michael Jordan

Elgin Baylor

I think he’s God disguised as Michael Jordan.

Larry Bird

I hate to say it's not a Laker but Michael Jordan. He's been the greatest player I've ever seen. And I'm probably a harsh judge of talent in the sense that I admire players that are really good defensive players and really good offensive players

Jerry West

Boy they sure do hate him :mjlol:

exactly why I made this thread because it highlights what's wrong with people who live off the unsupported opinions of other's (kobe stans) vs hardcore proof/unbiased stats/numbers (lebron fans):lolbron:
Is that what y'all LeBron stans tell yourselves? Then why do y'all always juelzsantangif when the stats go against your agenda?

:lolbron:

Same reason I needed AI and T-Mac to be better than Kobe...cuz I didn't like him, the Lakers were winning, and their bandwagon was loud and annoying in real life and online.

When Lebron passed Kobe my hatred of Kobe mostly disappeared so your second statement does not apply to me. I been rooting for Lebron since the first day I heard about him when we were both still in high school so he wouldn't really be a "proxy" for anything. I guess if we're being real T-Mac was the proxy for Kobe haters...
