When did Larry Bird call him "God in sneakers" or w/e, was that before or after MJ got a ring? Aint no other contemporary ever said that about another player.

he was not the consensus GOAT in 89. I'll give you some people said he was like some say LeBron is now, but the consensus did not have him as the GOAt then, just like they don't have LeBron as the GOAT now. He didn't become the consensus GOAT until he won ring.
Yes…he WAS considered the consensus GOAT.

You werent around

Reb: I lived during this. People called MJ the GOAT before winning a ring. I was there to hear it.

Daily reminder that LeBron is not the GOAT and his rings are cheap . He ruined parity by gaming the system by teaming up with other franchise players during his prime. It took a decade for the NBA to figure out how to course correct this bullshyt he started .

They should've course corrected immediately but they wanted the ad dollars from LeBron's superteams. Then when it was all over, now they wanna create the second apron. Now we gotta deal with his stans acting like he ran a 10K when he was took a limo to the finish line.

All this ring pressure made KD do the gayest shyt ever and joing a 73-9 Warriors team.

Winning is important, but ultimately, it's a team accomplishment.

Nobody finds it weird that a certain demographic that been pimping ring culture to denigrate LeBron is the same group that declares Jokic the greatest big man of all time, despite him having fewer rings than Shaq/Duncan/Walt/Russell/etc....

You kinda can. That's why Jordan is the GOAT. He knocked down every team in front of him. Even if you use the team concept there is nobody you can say "carried" him. Early exits he still had ridiculous statlines.
So you don't knock players that lose to the better team if they have ridiculous stat lines?
