Use team achievements like championships to try and undermine a player brehs.

If you're truly objective, then LeBron James is far and away the most talented NBA player of all time. MJ just has the best legacy. So picking which one is the "best" depends on what your criteria is--talent or legacy. To me, I much prefer to compare player's by the eye test and pure talent, because legacy accomplishments do rely heavily on team success and there have been NUMEROUS NBA legends that have never even won a championship. I don't think any of us would ever call Dennis Rodman better than Charles Barkley would we? In the very same sense Dan Marino is arguably the most talented QB of all time but fakkits only ride Montana's jockstrap and try to say he's "better" because he won rings.

Lebron can't turn over either shoulder in the post, up and under, doesn't have floaters and flip shots, doesn't have cross overs, hesitations, step backs, euros, doesn't have great footwork, average free throw shooter, questionable mental toughness, doesn't move well laterally, is inconsistent shooter outside of the paint, etc

Doesn't sound like the most talented player ever to me....think some are confusing being the most physically gifted with talent.

:mjlol:

This is super underrated and not easily dismissed(At least it shouldn't be)


If God came down right now and said

"I need you to build me a team that can win the next 4 NBA titles.Your two options to lead this team will be either LeBron James or Michael Jordan.The rest of the team will be made up of less talented role players.If you're not successful in this mission, I'll blow the whole fukking world up:birdman::ufdup:"

Who you picking?


Give me the mentally tough dude
Hmmm... only one those two has actually made it to the finals with "less talented role players.:usure:
