I feel exactly the same way abouyt Lebron and MJ. Lebron seems like a freight train that just powers his way in with his super strength. MJ is poetry in motion.

Your analysis and observation about Lebron James basketball skills was spot on. Most people overrate Lebron's greatness because they focus too much on his aesthetics and his ability to use his physical strength to bulldoze his way on the offensive side of the ball. If you follow Lebron's great NBA career, and you're an astute student and player of the game of basketball, you can clearly see by only using the "eye test", that Lebron is nowhere near the level of MJ. Lebron without a doubt is absolutely great at what he does good, and what his skill set provides him to do, but if you pay attention to his game since high school Lebron is pretty one dimensional. This is why in the Finals against the Mavs and the Spurs 3x's he was exposed. When the team coaches realized what I'm saying they took him out his game effectively. The moral of the story is Lebron doesn't have a repertoire like MJ, but if we're honest he never has, but most fans of his will neglect to mention his "lack of" rrepertoire in his bag. Lebron's biggest downfall to his game is he can't play off-ball, and every team he's played for since high school has been the Lebron James system. MJ fundamentally knew how to do both at the greatest level seen from any NBA player ever. MJ could play without the ball in his hands at all time(ball dominate), and dominate the game, or he could masterfully play within a system like the Bulls triangle and still dominate, that's greatness that Lebron just falls short of. Lebron is GREAT, really great, but he's just not on MJ's level, but to his credit no one who has ever played or olay today is on MJ's level. Great reaction my guy.💯

I think Kobe even ended up more skilled that Jordan. But with being less athletic with smaller hands, he was always fighting a losing battle trying to be equal or better than Mike.

That's correct... In Kobe's defense, he had to play rotational minutes during his first 3-4 years. Sometimes I wish Kobe was actually drafted by the Hornets, so it could pad his stats properly during his rookie deal.

@@GoddyGE it’s unpopular because today’s generation grew up with lebron and this is a very sensitive generation. So any criticism of their favorite player is just hate to them. Also the media wants us to think lebron its better for the NBA product if the greatest to ever play is still playing. It’s hard to sell the NBA to the current generation if you tell them that the greatest to ever do it has already come and gone. Why watch an inferior product?

Well the reason MJ retired and went to play baseball was because his father was murdered. His dad always love baseball and wanted his son play that sport.
