I’m here for the scraps
So it had nothing to do with the spurs shooting 54% from the field all series as a team? Them having 70+ at the half type shooting displays and you think that they won because LeBron was putting up 28 on a 57-52-79 shooting line? You Kobe stans seriously should seek some type of counseling and medication. You all have serious mental illnesses it seems. Your grip on reality is shaky at best.It won them one too....or do you pretend 2014 didn't happen

2014 was one of brons best shooting finals ever
Terrible post
Jordan has the highest regular season ppg playoff ppg and most scoring titles ever
People are ignorant to compare James to him

Bron aint the greatest scorer ever but don't dis him my saying he's not elite. The man is an all around beast who never had one of those seasons where he shot the ball 25-27 times a game like MJ Kobe AI. So if he really would have concentrated more on scoring (especially in his first Cleveland go round) no way he wouldn't have scored more and probably one a couple more scoring titles too. But after he got his that 08 season I think he didn't look to get 30 a night anymore. But if that was his sole mission to score I think his career line could have been more like 30 5 and 5 instead of the 27 7 and 7 that it is.
Yeah I don't get the argument. Mj got the highest career ppg even counting the wizard years and the highest playoff ppg in history. Not to mention his 10 scoring titles.
MJ=GOAT
Why does the so called choker has the highest game 7 and elimination game ppg of all time? Somebody's lying

You could have just said 2007, and no one would have batted an eyelash. Had to get flat ridiculous
Wtf u talkin about? MJ has the highest playoff ppg in history. He also has the highest NBA finals ppg too. Hell he averaged over 40 in a finals series. Dropped 63 in a playoff game.
On top of his regular season career ppg record and 10 scoring titles. This isn't even a discussion.

Coming from the same guy who just tried to discredit a 37 year old Kobe scoring 60 points in his final game. Because that shyt is normal for 37 year old players. That's the kind of shyt you Lebron dikk riders say out your mouth
The Spurs should've won in 2013 too. Ray Allen saved you. Spurs proved that when they whooped your ass the following year.

No. Jordan was a much more complete player. Same goes for kobe. We got a glimpse of the total package in miami..I believe lebron should be top ten in the most dominate of all time discussions tho.
Jordan is the greatest scorer the game has seen by far, and the only guy whose going to even be sniffing him in this discussion when it's all said and done os going to be KD.
LeBron's scoring accolades are being inflated by him coming into the league younger than Jordan, him having a higher usage rate, and his durability and longevity. There's nothing wrong with that, but he's not even in the same realm

You can't be that dumb?
Lebron shot 57% from the field and 52% from three in the 2014 Finals....Cavs lost because everyone on the Spurs was shooting 60% from the field and 50% from three.
Jordan is indeed the greatest scorer ever.
But the inflated/deflated goes both ways. Jordan's scoring accolades are inflated by him playing half his career in the high-pace 1980s and the other half in the expansion era 1990s. And Lebron's higher usage rate is irrelevant because he uses more of it on setting guys up - Jordan took more shots than he did.
On a season-by-season basis, if anything it's Jordan's numbers that are inflated, not Lebron's. But on a career basis, you're right that Lebron's edge comes from durability and longevity.
