Lebron better than Jordan?

:snoop: Basically, the quoted should be the only response to this outlandish statement my nikka. Even if Lebron plays for another 8 years, he would have to win 5 out of 8 championships to MATCH Jordan. Not be better, MATCH. Not to mention Jordan didn't have to team up with Larry Bird and Isaiah Thomas to do it :scusthov: Jordan already did what Lebron does with 32, 8, and 8 in '88 shooting 54% ( :whoo: ), so miss me with that sh*t and call me when Lebron does 37, 5, and 5 in a season. :heh: F*ck that fat f*ck, he mad 'cause he ain't got no rings.

LeBron is not a better shooter than Jordan, period. You also have to put ball handling in its proper context.


You're telling me that getting through The Lakers, Celtics, Pistons is a weak era? Y'all must think that Jordan didn't have to pay his fukking dues. :rudy:

Jordan and those Bulls teams didn't really go through the Lakers/Celtics/Pistons as much as they just waited them out until they were over-the-hill. People keep talking about this shyt as though Jordan was dominating Bird and Magic in their prime and shyt.

Lebron will never be number one in my book because he had to join forces to get a ring. Kobe and Jordan didn't have to run to another team to win a ring. You could replace Lebron with Melo and the heat still would have win a ring.

Jordan is the GOAT no doubt but If Lebron played in the 80s he would have been able to accomplish the same thing. Nobody was seeing MJ athletically in the 80s so he could dominate on both sides of the ball. Imagine what Lebron would do as a defender against less athletic opponents. He would :eat: Only time he would see comp is when goes up against Dominique and Bird. The rest of the year he would be running through Buck Johnson, Keke vandeweghe, Detlef Schrempf, Harold Minor, and the Dennis Scotts of the world. With the pace of the game in the 80s (possession per game) and his skill set he would put up 35 10 8 3 2 with regularity and would win DPOY.

I also think its too early to judge where Lebron will be by the time his career ends. He is only 27 :wow:

Stackhouse had the same line of reason until Jordan dropped 55 on him. F*ck yo thoughts nikka. I would love to see Lebron deal with LJ, Anthony Mason, James Worthy, list goes on and on. Jordan got manhandled physically by the Pistons :wow:, Kobe facin' jail time, Lebron couldn't even handle a lil nikka f*kkin' his moms, and this is whom you place your faith in? We need to flip the script. Drexler, Kemp, LJ, David Robinson would be GODS in today's NBA. They would make this soft azz NBA look like mere mortals.

I'm talking about Kobe in comparison to Jordan dumb ass.

Here's the quote for your retarded ass...


There's nothing in it about Bron. Yet I'm the moron? :russ:

fukking retard. :umad:

Bron is only 27, of course his career accomplishments won't compare to them old ass nikkas yet. Plus Bron clearly wasn't in the position Kobe was in.

Jordan > Bron >>> Kobe

Deal with it fukk boy. :umad:

:whoa: No disrespect though.

Being 27 doesn't mean shyt. You gotta look at minutes played not age. Mileage takes its toll no matter how old you are. There's a reason Kobe started falling off in his early 30s while Jordan was still the best player in the world at age 35. Jordan played 3 years of college ball and missed basically an entire season his 2nd year. He was still fresh by the time he was 30. Lebron has been playing nonstop since he came into the league at 18. Just his age doesn't excuse him from the mileage he's put on his body.

Being a cyborg from the future who doesn't feel pain helps. He's also big enough to play down low later in his career and is expected to play a lot more at the 4 this year. He can slide to the 4 full time in his 30's and still be one of the top athletes at his position.

Bron has showed uncanny durability. His most serious injury has been a leg cramp.

Jordan and Kobe didn't have to leave because they were already in major markets with HOF teammates. :comeon:

And you conveniently ignore the fact both Wade and Bosh were hurt in the playoffs. Bron answered any and all questions these past playoffs. Sounds like you're just looking for a reason to hate on the man. That excuse is lame.

Now Bron's skill set is better than MJ's?:ufdup:

Nobody has a BETTER skill set than MJ. I'm NOT a huge MJ fan but :damn: I done heard it all. Do you guys have a clear understanding of what skill set means?

Lol do you understand skill set kobe offensive skill set far surpasses jordan only thing jordan did better was drive and defensively he played in the hand check era so it was easy for him with those big ass hands. Jordan the best winner hands down but there's been plenty more skilled than him without his competive drive though.

He will probably end up with more accomplishments but as far as basketball skillset , he'll never be as good as Kobe or Jordan.

I actually disagree wholeheartedly.

I can't imagine anyone sniffing Jordan's accomplishments, but Bron with a post game can do everything Jordan could do and more.

Jordan made pippen better. He didn't have to switch teams.
