Lebron I wish him the best of luck.

If I would like to see anybody attain those heights it would be him.

But that dude will never top Mike.

Unless he puts together some Wilt like numbers the next 5 years or so. And runs off a Bill Russell type streak of championship wins.

Then he will still have to do it in dramatic MJ fashion.

Its still aspects of his game that will need to improve:
  • Free throw shooting
  • Low post game (add that MJ 12 foot and in turn around...he would be deadly)
  • Defense individual
  • Jump shot
  • 3-point shooting
  • strengthen the fundamentals
Your legs go after a while. It happens to them all.

See how long fundamentals keep Mike and Duncan around.

This statement made me respect LeBron even more than I did before... Takes balls to aspire that high AND to go public with it! Doesn't shy away from pressure and sets his own expectations! Grown man shit right here!! Whether he reaches that goal or not is not even important! Kudo LeBron :bravo:

Always tell young players ain't nothing wrong with wanting to be the best or better than the best, put in the work...if you come up a little short that's still great because it probably way higher than others.

Take Kobe, he wanted to be Mike, he wanted to be better than Mike...
Let's just say his ass ain't to far off...

One thing that James has over Jordan is that even though Jordan was 6-0 in the finals, teams led by him have been eliminated in the 1st round 3 times. James led teams have never been eliminated in the 1st round.

So being undefeated and a 6 time MVP in the finals is outweighed by 4 finals loses... based on 1st round loses?!?!?

Cool.... :hmm::hmm::hmm::hmm::hmm::hmm:

Welp... thats my queue... Don't have time to waste with this shit....

Goodnight Everybody! :cheers:

That is in no way what I said. I said that one thing James had over Jordan is that he has never been on a team that was eliminated in the first round.

Lebron can't ever the GOAT.

Lebron is partially a propped up fraud. Great, but propped up and made to look greater than he actually was. I think MJ was a little overrated, too - but Lebron is a hell of a lot more.
