Stan Van Gundy says Lebron James is already better than Michael Jordan

[BLAZO da GAWD]

It's crazy how one game can change your perception. If Bron lost game 6 to the Celtics in 2012, he would have been known as a yearly choker, not top 15..etc etc

But because of that win, people are claiming he's better than Jordan.

@ the Celtics for this shyt.

And, he might actually surpass his not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven... proclamation.

I cant be only 1 that will be glad when this whole Jordan hysteria over his birthday is over

 

[Lakerman0834]

brons amazing player but he just doesnt have that it factor MJ or Bean have. People i feel like arent excited to watch Its Ridiculous he is shooting 60% and 30 points a game but lets be reality thats no where as exciting as MJ and Beans 50 point streaks were u were glued to the tv and just watched in awe.

You guys are selling short Jordan the Athlete

 

[god shamgod]

My only knock on lebron is he still seems scared of the last 2 mins.That nikka still be shook in crunchtime.

 

[Made Man]

Theres several current players that have surpassed Mgay....Kobe, Bron, Melo, Durant, and Duncan just to name a few

Lebron got the potential to be the most physically gifted player ever.People knockin Jordans D by sayin bron is waaaayy better.Jordan had foolish D. One of the only people that use to take it to Jordan was Penny. Jordan had a better mid range game, was more creative in the post,fade away was unstoppable. Lebron is a killer passer and better facilatator though but he fall apart in crunch time. MJ was almost guaranteed to put that dagger in you if he had the last shot and the way MJ played the game was electrifyin. The way lebron is developin he got the potential to master the game better than anybody ever has but he aint got that spark like MJ. i think his play for these last 6 games got the media and everybody else geeked up. if he can sustain this level of play and mental sharpness and become that guy in the CLUTCH, then we can talk. til then MJ still the greatest.

How could you sell short Jordan the athlete?



Lebron is just a better one then him.

He's 6'9 , 30lbs heavier and faster.

It seems like some people are desperately looking for someone to be better than Jordan, lol. Jordan is the Goat basketball player that I ever seen. The youngings need to watch a couple of full games of Michael Jordan to understand how Mike dominated the league.

Scoring wise jordan is light yrs ahead of Lebron
Defensively I say Lebron is better cuz he can play more positions
But he is nowhere near Jordan he has got so much more to prove
And I don't even count that lockout yr championship

 

[Raw Lyrics]

Athletically[/B], yeah he's better than Jordan. And he's better at getting his teammates involved. But when it comes down to the last 5 minutes of the game, as all NBA games do, and the pressure is on, I'll take MJ over anyone.

 

[Brief Keef]

another day another jordan vs bron thread cuz some coach/analyst threw out his opinion so someone makes a thread about it to get a plat thread...tomorrow the same thing will happen

 

[EducatedBrothaFromTheBank]

What could Jordan do better than Lebron? I don't think MJ could do much better than Lebron than glide and dunk better. MJ has a far quicker first step but Lebron first step is good and his train when attacking because he's like 270.

Better Shooter
Better Post-Up Game
Better Foot-Work
More Clutch
Better IQ
Better Defensively
More Rings
Never Choked in Big Moments
Never Lost in the Finals
Was More Feared and Respected by Teammates

Jordan > LeBron

the only argument i keep hearing for LeBron is that he's bigger...so what? this nikka was SHUT DOWN by the Mavericks in the Finals... Imagine Jordan gettin shut down by Jason Terry
