Go look at MJ's roster his first two seasons vs LeBron's. The only good teammate Jordan had was Charles Oakley, who eventually had to get traded for a center (Bill Cartwright). LeBron didn't even make the playoffs in either of his first two seasons.
Back then 16 out of 23 teams made the playoffs. Was a lot harder to miss out. Chicago made it in with a 32-50 record in 1985-86. Cleveland missed out at I think 36-46 in 2003-04 with lebron. Not like either of those teams really had anyone good besides maybe Orlando Woolridge and old George Gervin.

i know one thing, Lebron doesn't get the referee calls Jordan got. Not even close.

:mjlol:

All lebron does is complain to refs every time he crab walks to the lane.

Claim to be a goat but complain about playing 82 game seasons smh. Willingly take games off and wishing for a 60 game season is what today's supposed goats want now?

The fact that so many people won't even entertain the idea that maybe Jordan isn't the best ever says all you need to know about the ridiculous levels that people have propped him up to.

I don't have a problem with MJ being #1 on somebody's list. But I also don't have a problem with Kareem being #1 on somebody's list.
And I think that Lebron James is forcing his way into the discussion for potentially going down as the best player himself.

:francis:Hate to agree with his annoying azz but he might be right.

Hes being harsh but hes trying to make a point. They arent as far apart as many like to think. When people compare the two, everyone loves nitpicking Lebron, but youre not allowed to nitpick Jordan. Not because you can't, but because it's blasphemy if you do. Well, he just nitpicked Jordan in 3 mins using facts only.:manny: If Jordan was truly untouchable, then this literally wouldn't be possible.

If somebody got kaj 1 I can respect that if they really watched him from the jump. His early years and prime were before my time though. I watched mj from the get go. College, olympics, beating the nba stars team, whole Chicago career, everything. He was that great. Just like I've watched Kobe and bron. They're not as good. I respect Kobe for being the competitor but mj was bigger, faster, stronger, better finisher etc. lebron has had too many small moments in his career. Even now Irving is the one with the cold blooded willingness to take the shots. Lebron don't even wanna shoot free throws mane.
