Bottom line: MJ accomplished all of his in 14 seasons, while LBJ is accomplishing his in 19 seasons. MJ did more in a shorter amount of time.
:mjlol:

I’m sorry being able to be arguably the best player 20 years later in the game is better than any stat

Bron ain’t been the best player in about 5 years. Plus this about accolades.

If we both took a test, and it took me 20 mins to finish, and it took you about an hour, I ended up getting 99 on it, you… 94. Who would you rather be? :mjgrin:

Bad metaphor.

If we're gonna use the test metaphor, it would be like if Jordan got a 100% on all the questions he answered, but he left some blank (retirements). He was so good on the ones he answered, though, that got a 99% overall on the test anyway.

Bron, on the other hand, answered every single question well and left none blank, but never reached the peak of Jordan's good answers. He still got a 98% on the test.


Keep in mind I think MJ is #1 overall still. But Bron solidifying himself as the #2 is all but set in stone at this point. Y'all are gonna have to deal with that whether you like it or not :lolbron:

Ultimately the argument between MJ and Bron will be peak (best version) vs longevity (length of greatness) and how you weigh them in the GOAT debate.

At Bron's peak he was better than any other player ever besides Peak Jordan and Peak Wilt.

But in terms of longevity he has passed both of them.

How you weigh that is up to you. I find that the Coli has a major bias for peak when evaluating players.

Since like '88, people had Kareem at no worse than third all time mainly on the strength of his longevity. Bron is surpassing even him now. That's why he can't be lower than #2 at this point, IMO :yeshrug:
