MJ was on steroids..facts,watch the documentary,without pippin and Rodman he ain’t winning
-
Stop forgetting about Kobe.
-
Isn't that enough to call him the greatest. When will he be greatest then until he retires? Smh this topic is so annoying
-
Blah blah blah Jordan blah blah. Stephen A is already saying he will never put LeGoat above Jordan even though he doesn't know what he is gonna go on to achieve in his career. What if he breaks every record ever? Ppl are such Jordan dickriders. What could Jordan do that LeGoat can't? Answer: nothing. What can LeGoat do better than Jordan? Answer: most things. Jordan had a higher peak!? Hahaha Max is funny. If you cant admit LeGoat is better then idek what to say
-
LBJ is not the greatest player……yet.
Sincerely,
MJ -
MIKE JORDAN PLAYED AGAINST HARDER COMPETITION STILL WON 6 TITLES, 6MVPS, NEVER WENT TO A GAME 7, NEVER NEEDED A SPORTS PSYCHOLOGIST, HAND CHECKING AND ELBOWS WERE LEGAL, NEVER TOOK TESTOSTERONE AND PEDS (DO REAL RESEARCH ON LEBRON), AND ONLY PLAYED WITH 1 ALLSTAR AND THEN LATER HAD RODMAN.. LEBRON NEEDED MUTIPLE ALLSTARS- SHAQ,D WADE, BOSH, ALLEN, KYRIE, ILGAUSKAS, LOVE, HAD DONYELL MARSHALL(3PT COM WINNER), KYLE KORVER (3PT COMP WINNER), LIST GOES ON.. LEBRON PLAYED AND STILL DOES PLAY IN THE OFFENSE ERA WHERE YOU CAN CRAB DRIBBLE, TRAVEL, SHOOTS 3S IN TRANSITION, FOUL CALLS ALL THE TIME, ETC…
YALL CAN MISS ME WITH ALL THE GREATEST TALK..
WHAT NUMBER DOES LEBRON WHERE?? 23.. WHERE HE GET THAT FROM ?? -
The greatest stat padder of all-time.
-
Both changed the game, came through and made a lane
-
When SAS was bringing up competition in the argument i started digging his grave.
-
guys like SAS act like Mike won chips every year since he was drafted in 84. Lebrons peak is longer than any other player in basketball period and the man is on more than one all time stat list. If all you got is the chips over Lebron, then its not an argument. Lebron all day
-
The ignorance of Stephen A on show again
-
TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
SOMEONE CALL NICK WRIGHT TOO ARGUE THIS …
-
Let’s gooooooioo Max!
-
Let LeBron be his own man.
-
Jordan is still the greatest player of all time with Kareem (in my oppinion)…. but what LBJ does in his 17th year is phenomenal.
-
I really respect lebron james and I dont want turn this into an arguement but I find kbe Bryant better just my opinion.
-
Stephen A… stop. Competition? Jordan’s competition has been way higher
-
He ain’t better than Kobe or MJ. Athletically yes. B-ball skill and winning, no.
-
How is you the greastest when you cant do everything, Magic is actually a better PLAYER than LeBron, his game is limited to driving, passing, and open threes.
-
if they beat the Mavs in 2011 Lebron would be goat hands down.
-
There is no goat when you have a team.

TOP THREE ALL TIME, NO NAMES REQUIRED,
I will take a guy doing 360 dunks, pump fakes, footwork and crazy streetball moves over basic basketball. How many 50-60 point games does he have? He didn't put those up in the 90s – 2008 when there were real defenders. He was called LeChoke and LeBrick for a reason. Im not hating, I am completely unbiased I just hate people hyping a guy up who needs 2-3 all stars to win. Or leaves a team. 8 points in a finals game??? CLOWNS GTFO
1) 6-0, shoot first, takes the last shot, crazy skill set/streetballer
2) 5-2, shoot first, takes the last shot, crazy skill set/streetballer, 81 points
3) 3-6, pass first, all shots are close range or wide open, same three moves every time. Drive at the goal, pass or one dribble pull up. No footwork, no moves, no counter moves, scared to pull or take the last shot. 2011-2019 LBJ is a Magic Johnson copy cat. -
I think Stephen A getting too old for this job h
-
2nd?? The disrespect on Kareem is fucking real!
-
I thought SAS's position was very fair until he started in about competition. Jordan never faced a team near as good as the Warriors, and LeBron went against them 4x?
-
Lebron the second greatest player but the third greatest laker, go figure
-
LeBron is the greatest!
-
Stephen A is right. Jordan is a bad motherfucker
-
I wonder if this will change for the likes of the goat Broussard, Stephen A, Max, Whitlock, Colin, Ernie, Chuck, etc etc when LeBron retires with 5-9 record. This is my realistic expectation btw, now my unrealistic expectation is a three peat.
-
I had to reread the title
-
The ? should be who’s the greatest NBA, College and High School players ever separately. Breakdown NBA eras of great players then have a healthy debate. Greatest overall NBA player who ?, College player on any level who?, High School player who? Overall greatest player in the history of basketball itself, Kareem Abdul Jabbar fka (Lew Alcindor) objective facts!
-
LeBron ain't number 2. He isn't even in the top 5. MJ, Kareem, Bill Russell, Kobe and Magic are all GREATER than him.
People keep bringing up the fact that Bron had to play KD and the warriors. Put MJ and Kobe on the cavs and they beat the warriors… They're just better winners.
-
The second greatest player is either bill Russell or Tim Duncan, not Lebron James….
-
Could you work the sound up for these videos? It's always way too low
-
Pound for pound LeBron is the Greatest, best player ever in 17th season I’ve ever seen
-
Stop watching this show until they show color people respect
-
I'm going to miss LeBron when he retires. I liked him before he was a Laker. I like him even more as a Laker.
-
That title works I came to fight the Vietnam War, but I realize that it is only for the ratings, leave Lebron alone and when he retires then you can make the comparison better.
-
Lebron beat Tim Duncan Tony Parker Manu Ginobili Kawhi Leonard Kevin Durant Russell Westbrook James Harden Steph Curry & Klay Thompson that's four MVPs two final MVP's and defensive player of the year what did you say about competition
-
Kobe/MJ!!!! Are the two who get the privilege to be considered the top 2.
-
Kobe is above your LeBron , Kobe and Jordan are both number one , they share that spot !!!
-
quit playing, Lebron is still behind Kobe…
-
Never in this discussion do they mention how much time he spent in his career in depressing Cleveland. A dysfunctional small market franchise in a depressing city. It is a huge advantage to be in Chicago or LA
-
You're being critical Steven A!!!!!!!!!!
-
Let Jordan go man.. Lebrons been past him.. just let it go SAS..
