So you agree he’s just sticking around to stat pad

A REPORT CAME OUT
MAD YEARS AGO
THAT HE WAS GONNA CRUSH
THE RECORD BOOKS TO STAKE
HIS GOAT CLAIM SINCE HE WAS
NEVER GONNA CATCH MJ FINALS RECORD.

HES PLAYING WITH HOUSE MONEY
AT THIS POINT.

IF HE DOES WIN AGAIN
IT INCREASES HIS LEGACY
AND IF HE NEVER WINS AGAIN
IT DOESNT HURT HIS LEGACY

Basically. With the 2016 title run he was cemented top 10, probably top 5 but by 2018 it was clear he wasn’t gonna have a comparable 10 year stretch (late 80s-late 90s) of dominance + winning that had MJ heralded as goat athlete, let alone goat nba.

Not getting that 3-peat with the Heatles hurt -particularly the 2011 blunder- and the KD GSWs closed any chances of that happening in CLE.

However, if you can’t achieve the aura of nigh invincibility that Mike had, the next best route is sustainability/ longevity stats and records. Basically the Kareem argument for which LeBron already leapfrogged.

Lebron is not in the Kareem conversation at all

Kareem has the accolades that equal (arguably surpass) Jordan, AND he has the longevity stats to go along with it

Keep telling yourself that nikka. :mjlol:

It’s MJ Bron and everyone else. Which is why you nikkas sit here incessantly arguing about it every damn day. Don’t no one give a fukk about Kareem when it comes to Bron, respectfully.
