Did MJ ever lead a final series in Pts, reb, assists, steals, and blocks? Lebron did it against a team that broke the Bulls regular season win record

Lmao. You really wanna compare Finals?

Mj had a series averaging 41 8.5 and 6.3.

Also when did MJ average 17.8 in a Finals, or lose to a worse team , or have a teannate average 26.5 in the Finals and still lose?

Every year during the playoffs, the NBA forum gets invaded by a bunch of people who don't even realize basketball is played until the superbowl is over. Every year its nothing but this bull**** debate over how disrespected James is. At this point, its almost a complete fabrication. Almost everyone here understands how special he is.

He is special. Just not anywhere near the greatest.

Best assist year 1.1 better than MJ. More willing passer. Also just less aggressive on o. Also pace inflates assist numbers compared to the 90s. Advantage LBJ.

MJ best scoring year 7.1 better than LBJ. MJ Better hands down.

While I agree with everything else you said, I have to call out the BS of these 2 statements. The majority of Jordan's career he played at a much faster pace than LeBron. And when Jordan averaged 8 assists per game, the pace was faster than any season LeBron ever played in. And when LeBron started his career in 2003, pace and scoring was at an all-time low. Pace didn't get faster than 1993 until this season.

Also, Jordan's best scoring average season is 37.1ppg while LeBron's is 31.4ppg. So Jordan's best scoring season is 5.7ppg better, not 7.1ppg better.

All I can say is that if you truly think the disrespect is a fabrication then you really must never leave this board. Although it’s not like it doesn’t exist here. There’s easily 4-5 posters who are incappable of making a compliment that isn’t backhanded.

Great block but it was a foul.

He played well but the refs screwed the Pacers/Raptors/Celtics/.

It’s pathetic and childish and I enjoy pointing that out. Sorry that hurts your feelings.

Great points. I did miss his 31.4 year when comparing stats too. I think he is great. MJ is just in another Galaxy than anyone else.

Jordan 1A Lebron 1B. We can end it there bc you can’t go wrong with either. The dumbest part of the debate is the fact that they are completely different players with different styles so all we can get is the same gasbag takes

“Great block even though it was a foul” yeah I said that and it was still a foul. Why is that backhanded?

True. He had more 30 6 and 6 season than LeBron.

When has LeBron put up an "all around" season as good as that? Never.

MJ also averaged 3 steal and a block that year. 2.9 .8.

Being two inches taller and 50 lbs heavier LBJ best rebounding year was .6 better than MJs best. Not a better rebounder. Even if anything.

Best assist year 1.1 better than MJ. More willing passer. Also just less aggressive on o. Also pace inflates assist numbers compared to the 90s. Advantage LBJ.

MJ best scoring year 7.1 better than LBJ. MJ Better hands down.

MJ best year in steals. 3.2 LBJ 2.2 . 10 seasons averaging 2 steals to 1. Advantage MJ.

MJ best year in blocks 1.6 to 1.1. MJ 5 years 1.0 or better 2 years 1.5 or better. LBJ 3 years 1.1 or 1. Advantage MJ.

MJ is the GOAT. No argument can be made otherwise.

Everybody had more blocks in the 80's and 90's because of the nature of offense at the time.

At their absolute best

MJ > Lebron by a modest margin


Pick a 5 year run

Push


Pick a 10 year run

Lebron > MJ and it's not even close


And Lebron's still playing his best basketball

How do things skew if you consider that LeBron has never really played for a “great” coach. Beside Spo, he’s had to figure things out on the fly by himself.

Jordan also played in an era that had dominate big men. Lebron really hasnt. There hasnt been a big man in the past decade that could even come close to the big men of Jordans era. Its a whole lot easier to get to the rim these days. Thats a fact.

Less huge guys waiting, but better defense all around at other positions. Lets also remember Lebron gets the best defender on a nightly basis (not that Jordan didn't either).
