JJ and other sorrow Bronies always complained about Lebron running into GSW in 17 / 18 was unfair. It's all excuses b/c Jordan ran into Celtics that had 4 HOFs in 86 & 87 while having basically no help. Then there was Pistons that had 3 HOFs from 88 to 91.

Facts, JJ was a bum in the era before now averaging under 10 points a game from the bench, then as soon as the league changes he has a career high in points putting up 18 a game at the age of 34 and near the ending of his career (which further shows how weak this era truly is). JJ’s very lucky the league became so 3 point happy because he was very close to flaming out of the league since he has a very limited skill set aside from shooting. It got so bad for him that Magic didn’t even believe in him enough to start over a rookie Courtney Lee who was a late 1st rounder, while JJ was a lottery pick.

Why is that context never brought up? Why is that just forgiven at this point? That forever changed the culture of the league, and ripped out the soul of "franchise players", and gong to war for your team over your career against other franchise players. Younger fans wont know what The Decision took from us older fans. So, he ripped that away, then their first year together they BREEZE through the East 4-1'ing everyone, then Bron has the worst superstar choke in Finals history - Jordan's not doing that, ever. Simple as that. Not to mention MJ just had better production, defense, leadership, mindset, everything. If anything, Bron is just straight overrated for the teams hes had, hand-pick stacking his teams for an entire decade of his megaprime, and ending up with a losing Finals record. Give me a break, bro. No matter how much people spam it, and want it to be true, he is not LOCKED at #2. He has an argument, but that's it.

[@TheHighestGodisGood]

When MJ changed teams, he did that 1 time, after 2 yrs off, and went to a team that was certainly not close to being championship-ready. He wasn't actually chasing a ring, after '98. He was playing for the love of the game. That was 6 of 6 rings in only 12 full seasons. Through 1998, he missed about 2 seasons in that time (broken ankle and 1st retirement), which means he accomplised what he did, in a mere 12 full seasons worth of playing, against 29 other DEVELOPED teams, not 8 other, short-in-height newbies (basketball itself was new), like Bill Russel played against, night in and night out! The 72-10 Bulls team is not the second best team ever. They are pound-for-pound THEE best team, ever (not considering the Dream Team). If MJ played in Steph's era, today, he'd average 42ppg. Kobe immediately increased 4ppg, once hand-checking was off the table, alone. The scale of now vs. 90 rules and physicality is not evenly-weighted. Look at the previous champions, defenders, and contenders that the Bulls went through, year after year. MJ's 6 rings are worth 8 rings today. 72 wins then are worth 79 wins today. The Bulls were about 8% better than the Warriors were. Wake me up when a team achieves 80 wins, that team wins 9 rings, the star player averages 43ppg, the team never loses a finals series, that team wins a ring better than every other year, the star player is also on an olympic team better than the Dream Team and wins more gold metals than MJ, the star player dunks with beauty and power from further back than the freethrow line and wins 3 dunk champs, is all defense for 10 times or more, has a hunger-drive to win better than a starving and scared lion wants to eat, teams fear him and can only considerably defend him by physically hurting him, and all this happens over 17 yrs or less. Not 20 or more, like Lebron or Kobe (for less accomplished). THEN, we have a new GOAT player and team. This is why Lebron or anyone else simply are not even close to over-taking MJ for GOAT-hood. Sign me up to watch THAT GUY on THAT TEAM!!! Oh, and how does their fade-away look?! How do their dunks look?! Does the star player get OVER heads with the rim with a 49"+ vertical?! Am I right everyone? What do y'all think it ACTUALLY takes to be the GOAT TEAM and GOAT PLAYER, today? Should the rules go back to the way they were in the 80s and 90s? Give me THAT, with no race nor politics garbage, and I'd then start watching NBA basketball, again. Until then, it's MJ and Bulls re-runs for me. I love watching the greatest team and player, ever, in the greatest era, ever. Mic drop.

Lebron not top 10 , that last few years hurts his legacy imo , he literally plays no defense is a totally liability and on offense just stands around at the 3 point line if he doesnt have the ball. His teams play 4 v 5 75% of the time hes on the floor. Hes to busy stat padding to sit his old ass down and rest , so he rests on the court at the expense of his team , waiting for some low effort rebounds , points , and assist to come his way

[@HailKingCeezer]

Locked in with recency bias, sure. Lots of arguments for each of the top 5 guys, even some for the top 10 guys. When the recency bias is gone, i highly doubt his lasting power will be as strong as Jordans which means he's at risk of dropping just like what happened to every other legend in the past. Jordan's staying power is extremely strong bc the eye test plus all the necessary avg's, advanced metrics and rings and fmvps count is just more captivating than a totals records list while having to ignore the "losses without context" that only seems to conveniently apply to Lebron and not anyone else's losses and they'll see flaws in using logenvity to prop Bron up while seeing no one does it to say Stockton is the goat pg or even top 2. They'll see in no other sport do people try to claim someone with a losing record as the greatest of their sport. Try convincing Kobe fans that Bron is better before you start claiming a locked position b/c theres still a massive population that thinks Kobe is locked at 2 even if i disagree with that as well.

[@gggyy7104]

The difference is that Lebron has a massive argument for 2, and it’s almost impossible to have him out of your 5. Kobe’s has no argument for top 2, and barely any for top 5.

[@HailKingCeezer]

@@gggyy7104 he does have a big argument for 2 for sure, but to say kobe has no argument is looking simply at the 1 lens kobe lacks. The advanced metrics lens. The perfect stats lens. Kobe has the eye test. The fear test/killer instinct, and the alpha test on top of the playoff success with his 5 rings. You could argue even if kobe was 1b in ring 2 and 3, he was good enough that you could imagine he'd be 1a if lebrkn was on the team instead of Shaq and that's 4 ring tie as the 1a in my eyes but thats all subjective in the end. Jordana rings and fmvps are not so. Hes unquestionably the alpha and omega of all of his rings.

@@HailKingCeezer I’m looking at it objectively. Kobe does nothing better than Jordan so that’s his goat case gone right there. And then just compare Lebron, Kareem, Magic, Duncan, Wilt, Bill Russell, Bird, Shaq to Kobe and you can easily find 4 other players better.

[@Zamppa86]

I really wonder if Redick has done any research on the Houston back to back rings in '94 and '95. Those were runs for the ages, one superstar with roleplayer help with a team that drafted that superstar. Hakeem's runs to the back to back rings are pretty much the most impressive of all time when you look at what he did, with what help and against who. Both of those runs were awesome. Look at '94 and against who the Rockets won and with what team. I'm not trying to push down players like Kenny Smith, Vernon Maxwell, Robert Horry or Otis Thorpe by any means but all those guys were 'good roleplayers' at best. That team beat a rather deep Porland, then Barkley's Suns, Stockton&Malone Jazz and Ewing's Knicks. And Hakeem was the sole all star in that team. In '95 the Rockets were a 6th seed and won every series without homecourt advantage. Sure they had added Drexler mid season but Clyde was not an all star anymore(I do love Clyde Drexler, one of my favourite players of all time!). And again they beat Barkley's Suns, Stockton&Malone Jazz, MVP Robinson's Spurs and then swept the 'superteam' of Shaq&Penny Magic who also had solid roleplayers like Grant and Scott. None of LeBron's playoff runs has been nearly as impressive, not even nearly as impressive, as those Rockets runs. The '11 Mavs run is also much more impressive than any of LeBron's runs. Hakeem's two back to back rings are more valuable than LeBron's 4 rings combined. Ring is a ring for sure but some rings hold much more weight and value than others.

One thing I'd like to add as a context to bulls wins not only in playoff series but in general is that in an era with strong big men dominating the paint (yes, back then there wee real centers who were allowed to camp in the paint) they had to fight without a single reliable center and still attack the rim through pure skill, creativity and of course ball movement (kudos to both Phil for the design and the players for the execution). So saying that the bulls were the super team and all their opponents were weak when in fact Jordan played with one all-star only and all their opponents had at least one clear edge over them is not simply overrated, it's pure nonsense. And we all know they overcame those hurdles by the pure will and leadership of MJ who would not quit on his team, would never disappear in the fourth. Actually it's quite the opposite and it's pretty obvious to anyone who watched bulls finals. To those who haven't i would say this: either watch and learn or stop comparing anyone to MJ except Kobe to an extent.
