RedDogNamedClippers 2,305 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 MJ would win Lebron’s teams. Okay if you think Mike Brown and Eric spoelstra are good coaches; and you think Mario Chalmers & Mike Miller are equivalent to Kerr & Kukoc or Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden is equal to Scottie Pippen & Horace Grant/Rodman.

Also The fact that you hate Lebron so much that you’re saying he isn’t even a top 3 is laughable. You’re out of your mind lol They were also 2 games out of 10th seed with a pretty bad point differential relative to teams around them. Not thinking Lebron is top 3 is hating now huh? This is the problem with people that will ride or die with Lebron regardless of what he does. Everything that even remotely doesn't support him is considered hate. That's what happens when a guy doesn't face an ounce of media scrutiny. I don't hate Lebron. He is one of the best players ever. However, he doesn't just get to pass guys like Wilt, KAJ, Magic, Bird, and etc and go straight to Jordan. One of the biggest myths in the history of the game is that Lebron makes teammates better. You can think as you please but I won't have Lebron in my top 3 unless he does something in the west. 1 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedDogNamedClippers 2,305 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I don’t understand why people still argue this MJ vs Lebron debate. Honestly, if you’re a basketball fan nobody cares. Talk about this some other time, one is still playing and the other is a horrible GM/Chairman for a professional basketball team. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What about guys like Shaq, McGrady, Pippen, Jordan, Miller, Grant, Fisher, Jackson, Bird, Rodman, Barkley, and etc who all pick even Kobe over Lebron? Oh wait...That doesn't fit your agenda. It's easier to pick someone from the media instead of guys that actually play the game who overwhelmingly pick Kobe over Lebron. Remember, almost no one considers Kobe even in the top 5 conversation for some reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EmbiidGOAT 139 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 LeBron is number 2. Kobe doesn't come close. Kobe was definitely carried by Shaq and Gasol/Odom No way kobe should be in the GOAT debate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then Barkley, and Kevin Johnson lol. He's the GOAT coach regardless. Bulls couldn't beat Shaq and Penny in the 1995 eastern conference finals and he wasn't rusty he dropped 2 50 point games prior to that series, they needed Rodman. Rodman's offensive rebounding won the following 1996 series, most long time Bulls fans agree.Jordan not only shot terribly from the field, he was absolute s--- in the fourth quarters too (shot 33.3% in them, and only 15.4% in the fourth quarters of the three close games). In the two close wins of the series, Rodman averaged 11 offensive rebounds/game. He was setting records, and when MJ was shooting the team out of the game with bricks (rest of the team struggled shooting wise too), it was Rodman getting all those rebounds to give Bulls the extra possessions. Bulls as a team shot much lower than Sonics in that series...why do you think they still won? They got 34 more possessions from offensive rebounds (Rodman alone had 41!). MJ's scoring could have been replaced in that series, but Rodman's historic offensive rebounding? Not so much.Rodman should have been the MVP of that Finals. The Bulls shot much worse from the field than the Sonics in the Finals but still won. How did that happen? Simple. The Bulls got more shot opportunities from offensive rebounds basically negating many of their misses. Rodman, by himself, secured and additional 41 possessions for the Bulls with his offensive rebounding including 2 games where he tied an NBA Finals record. That's like playing H-O-R-S-E and someone giving you multiple "do overs" after you've missed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rings are a team achievement, not an individual accomplishment. 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
