Watched both LeBron and MJ... When LeBron was coming up I was so hopeful I'd be able to see someone close to Jordan again. It was very obvious it wasn't going to be close. LeBron isn't even remotely close. Jordan was on another level.
When you watch all MJ's highlights, you will learn what is different between MJ and LBJ. MJ had Honor and loyalty to his team and the fans. He didn't switch team when he lost and shit hits the fan and he did not blame anyone else as a coward. He worked harder. I understand your generation likes LBJ, but calling somebody to GOAT who are a ring chaser team switching and even 20 years can't even catch MJ's record. MJ's records after 30 years still exist, and will be in the next 30 years. You've ben lied to about MJ, he cannot pass, he is not a good defender, he can't shoot 3s. Watch all MJ's mix tape and you will realize you've been lied to. MJ is the only GOAT. LBJ not even close never will be. This is not hate against LBJ, it is just the fact.
We do have our favorites but as a Gen X my favorite is obviously better than yours. I respect LeBron’s strengths and I was hoping he would live up to the high school hype but it was a big disappointment. A lot of weaknesses and all he can do is dunk and pass. No handles and no jumper is pretty bad for the self proclaimed GOAT.
First explain how you come to the conclusion LeBron is even near the goat conversation. You can never be the goat of a sport with a losing record. Is 4 out of 10 in the finals, never even went to college to get an NCAA title like Jordan, 6-0 with two three peats in the finals, in Jordan's nothing but gold in the Olympics, 10 consecutive scoring titles, I could go on but it wouldn't be readable this text would be so long. LeBron even got him a bronze in the Olympics. He's got longevity that's it. A no physical League can't touch anyone no 7 footers in the paint no physicality he don't even play 82 games but once in his whole career. He'll never be the goat not even top 3
He played 19 minutes in the 1st half and scored 35.
Bulls were way up, he ended the game with 39 points, 11 assists, and 2 steals in a 122-89 opening game blowout.
