I sorta forget that Jordan wasn't just a basketballer, he was also one of if not the most recognised sportsperson in history. Lebron is not even close to that.

I bet Jordan's shoes out sell Lebron's as well.
 
DeShawn's take on the issue.

lol, Mike D'Antoni now causing supporters to have no logical understanding of defense? Perhaps. He's worked wonders with STAT.

The LeBrone hate is all him. He lost and starts whinging about how everyone want him to lose and they're still (Essentially) losers and nobodies.

How about saying, I didn't do enough when it mattered, then getting your ass in the gym and working on your deficiancies instead of making TV specials, ads about how hard your life is, and practicing hi fives.

The Lebron hating tto some effect is due, but it's just ugly now

All said and done, he'll still one of the greatest players, Erik also has some answering to do, Lebron does have a post game, he showed earlier in the season, If he was instructed by Eric to post up on Kidd he would of Creamed him

Agree with the first part however Lebron doesn't have a good enough post game. Are you telling us that Eze E told Lebron not to post up? FFS he had barea on him drawing charges when he tried to post up.
 
Had to go back and watch some Ultimate Jordan after that youtube clip. Have you ever seen someone with the competetiveness, the look in his eyes like he would kill you for the ball, for the strip, for the ability to deny you the rock. He not only played every second, but he played every inch of the floor.

Can watch him all day, on both ends. Warrior.

It was game 5 (might have been Game 4) but they posted him about 6 times and he scored once tops. He wasnt looking at the rim. He was posting to pass, like Kidd does.

That post up in game 6 when he didnt even know how to establish position against Terry and he shot the ball so badly it missed the square was embarrasing.

Post skills take years. He is starting off at zero.
 
LeBron is a beast, will he still dominate at 30 years old. No. LeBron doesnt have the all round ability of Jordan and what really hampers him is his mental strength. Jordan was the most mentally strong sportsperson probably ever. You could never shake him off his target, you could never tell him what he couldnt do. Plus he evolved. LeBron isnt evolving. Jordan wasnt the complete package right outta college but he worked all the time on his game, to improve every facet. LeBron seems happier to take the piss out of Dirk and make awesome adverts for TV. He will never be MJ. But that is unfair on LeBron, because nobody will ever be MJ.
 
Lebron and Jordan in the same breath is disrespectful to the game.

MJ is a player we were lucky to hav witnessed... There will never be another
 
Just quietly, Kobe's the closest thing we've had to Jordan.

(No bias)

Bias or not, you are correct.

Particularly with regards to Kobe's killer instinct/competitiveness, and ability in the clutch.

How about saying, I didn't do enough when it mattered, then getting your ass in the gym and working on your deficiancies instead of making TV specials, ads about how hard your life is, and practicing hi fives.

He needs to disappear totally. Hide away in the gym and work as hard as ever on deficiencies in his game. He will earn people's respect by, keeping quiet and working hard.

I think you're right but only in the fact that Kobe models his game on Jordan's. He walks the same, shoots the same, even chews gum the same. His game is very much like Jordan's, just not as good. In fact there is still a large gap between the two players.

To say that he is the closest thing to Jordan we have seen are you suggesting Kobe is the second greatest baller of all time? Id strongly disagree with that. It's just that Kobe's game is so similar to MJ's. Kobe wasnt better than Magic, Robertson, Russell, Wilt, Bird etc...

.......... dunno how the hell you came up with that interpretation..... :confused:

Either way, I can't accurately comment on that cos I never saw those old school guys play. Different eras make it hard to compare as well.

I don't think there's as large a gap between them as you think though.
 
The biggest factor in why LeBron will never be as good as Jordan, is that MJ thrived of the challenge and beating the best, LeBron bitched out if it by calling up D Wade and Bosh and saying lets team up. Jordan would never have done that ever.

Well you said Kobe was the closest thing to MJ weve ever had. Considering MJ is the GOAT, then you must mean Kobe is the second best player ever.

I too cant comment on Wilt, Robertson and Russell but the things they did, the records they set etc suggests they are still ahead of Kobe. I saw Magic play and he is twice the player Kobe is.

Oh and the gap between Jordan and Kobe is actually quite huge. Kobe has won 2 rings really, not 5. The other 3 are Shaq's rings. Id like to see Kobe win a title with Bill Wennington, Luc Longley or Bill Cartwright in the middle.

Quoted for truth, Jordan didnt want to play with the best, he wanted to beat the best. Massive difference between the two players.

pretty sure he was referring to the killer instinct aspect.

give him Scottie Pippen and his chances would increase dramatically.
 
great video

like the commentator says Pippen should be banned from the city
