The GOAT 🐐 debate is OVER and LeBRONZE🥉🥉will NEVER be the GOAT. Here’s why. 1. 8 championship losses which includes his 2 on Team USA🥉🥉 2. He has a LOSING Finals record of 4-6 including 2 sweeps 🧹 🧹The greatest of all time can ❌NOT❌ be a guy that has LOST more than he’s WON. I mean what are we doing here. 🤷‍♂️ 3. He’s NEVER won a championship without joining a SUPER TEAM. 4. He’s the all time leader in TURNOVERS. He even has more than John Stockton and John has 4,800 more assists. 5. He’s a career below average free throw shooter. 10 seasons he’s been below 75.0% including 5 seasons in the 60.0% range and he’s never shot 79.0% his whole career. His HIGHEST season percentage is lower than MJ’s🐐LOWEST. 6. He’s not a competitor. This is a guy that LOSES & RUNS. OK I LOST LET ME GO HERE. OK I LOST AGAIN LET ME GO HERE. OK I LOST AGAIN LET ME GO TO THE WEST NOW SO STEPH CAN STOP WINNING RINGS ON ME. 😂 7. Steph and the Warriors built a DYNASTY on his back. Lebron runs so much that he’ll never be part of a dynasty. SMH 8. He’s had more HELP than everybody in NBA history. 9. Let’s talk about toughness in big moments. JORDAN🐐scored 38 with flu like symptoms in game 5 of the 97 Finals. Meanwhile in game 1 of the 2014 Finals Lebron had to be carried off the court because the AC went out. I guess he’s never played ball in the park. 😂 10. He’s 6 misses away from passing Kobe to become the all time leader in MISSED SHOTS. 11. He FLOPS and his defense is not that good. Sometimes he doesn’t play defense at all. Sometimes he doesn’t even get back on defense. 12. I mentioned this is #1 but he’s also failed TWICE on Team USA bringing home 2 BRONZE Medals🥉🥉 13. He’s the only guy in the debate that took the SUPER TEAM route to success. So how can we even compare him to guys that had traditional careers. 🤷‍♂️ 14. He’s praised for his longevity even though he uses, Cryotherapy, Normatech Leg Boots and spends time in a Hyperbaric Chamber. WHAT? Meanwhile he’s being compared to MJ🐐whose only method of treatment was icing his knees. 🤷‍♂️ 15. He’s only played a full season ONCE. MJ🐐did it 9 times including his final season at 40 years old. 16. He’s possibly on PEDS 💉💉 17. He’s been outscored in the Finals 7 times. Dirk, Wade, Bosh, Jason Terry, Tony Parker and KD TWICE. MJ🐐was NEVER outscored in the Finals. I mean enough is enough. Nothing about what I just mentioned says the greatest player of all time. I mean he’s done some great things but what people don’t seem to realize is without SUPER TEAMS his career is nowhere close to where it is today. Check this timeline. 2003-10 Before Super Teams - 1 Finals appearance 🧹 2011-24 After Super Teams - 9 Finals appearances See what I mean 🤷‍♂️ And along with all those deep post season runs came rings, records and stats that he wouldn’t have if he would’ve never left the Cavs the first time. I’ll give him 3, maybe 4 trips to the Finals at best. Also here’s a list of some star players and how many BELOW AVERAGE free throw seasons they had. (under 75.0%) - MJ🐐 - 0 Kobe - 0 Magic - 0 Bird - 0 Steph - 0 KD - 0 Kawhi - 0 Kyrie - 0 J Tatum - 0 N Jokic - 0 Harden - 0 Dame $ - 0 Lebron - 10 Plus LBJ had 5 seasons in the 60.0% range and he hasn’t shot 79.0% from the line in 21 seasons. There’s ❌NO WAY❌ anyone can tell me he’s the greatest player of all time when can barely go the line by himself and hit two shots. FACTS💯 Long story short, Lebron due to way too many negatives on his resume is disqualified from GOAT contention. 💯

[@leecorleone]

LeFraud's field goal % is higher due to more shots closer to the rim.

[@OpinionStated]

Exactly! I love how his super fans love leaving out that the majority of his shots are within 2 feet of the rim. Same reason Kareem held the record before him. These people annoy me.

[@Ace-fe8gc]

Then that means Bron is a better efficient scorer! Why take a difficult 2 pointer when you can get the same 2 points at the rim?? Jordan himself said he didn’t excel at shooting 3’s because he wanted to put pressure on the defense! So why is it bad that LeBron puts pressure on the defense going down hill? Kyrie looks better as a scorer compared to Shaq but we know Shaq is more dominant and efficient. LeBron is a perimeter player going to the cup to score and is a more efficient 3 point shooter. Advantage James!

[@OpinionStated]

@@Ace-fe8gc nice try. No, it means Bron isn’t a shooter, so naturally if you’re limited to lay up’s the likelihood of a higher FG% exists. You guys reason ridiculously.

[@Ace-fe8gc]

@@OpinionStated I’m still waiting for your point. You say he’s not a shooter but he shoots better from 3 than Jordan so what does that make Jordan? LeBron just finished a 41% from 3 shooting more volume of 3’s in a season than Jordan ever shot. How do you explain your shooting comment and, if guys know LeBron isn’t a shooter and they play him for the drive because he isn’t a ‘shooter’ then how does he keep scoring at the paint?

[@OpinionStated]

@@Ace-fe8gc you answered your own question. By volume because of todays style of play in the NBA, Joel Embiid & Jokic shoot more than Jordan did 😂🤣 That doesn’t make them shooters. And how convenient of you to cherry pick Bron’s best statistical year from three. He’s still not a shooter, meaning the mass of his shots come within 2 ft of the basket - pretty simple. Steph Curry; Klay Thompson; Kevin Durant; Devin Booker; Luka Doncic etc are shooters my friend. Yes, Bron can FINALLY shoot better than his early career, but there’s no consistency in terms of balanced shots from different ranges on the court. Impossible to misunderstand or to argue. Oh, and please tell me you understand that a layup is within two feet of the rim?🙏🏾🤣

The Greatest of All Time: #1 - Stockpiled accolades, awards & trophies - especially more than his peers. #2 - Accomplished more historical feats, in less time than ANYONE ever! #3 - Won more championships than his peers & established a standard of excellence for others to aspire. 😕During LeBron’s Career: #1 - Nikola Jokic has one fewer MVP than him & will likely tie him in the coming season. #2 - the only thing he’s done more of is Finals MVP (4) & score 40k, but it’s taken him 20+ seasons to do so. #3 - Steph Curry has equal championships in less time. And, many other players have won their fair share of title pie. How nice of him to be so giving. 🤩During MJ’s Career: #1 - ✔️ #2 - ✔️ #3 - ✔️ There is NOTHING that LeBron can do, that MJ couldn’t do better. The assist myth needs to end. Research his early seasons prior to the 90’s when they had him running PG. You’re welcome.

[@Cryptidswildfoodoutdoors]

Can't really make a serious argument for anyone who played most of their career in the East. Kobe went against Duncan, T-Mac and more, and was still the greatest of his era. Wilt Chamberlain owns more records than anyone probably ever will. Kareem was a phenom, and Magic had to battle Bird. Other than MJ, the only East player in the conversation should be Larry Legend.

[@alexhendricks6799]

In MJ's 6 finals appearance's Scottie Pippin actually actually led Jordan in steals, rebounds, and assists. Does that mean Pippin was better than MJ? What case can you possibly make that supports that idea? They were just simply two different players with different jobs. Here's another quick example, Larry Bird was a better all around shooter than MJ, better rebounder and passer, does that mean he was better? Jordan was a one on one player and did what he had to do to win, and he was the best at it! MJ's the GOAT, there's no debate!!!

I've seen both and for me personally it's Lebron. I've never seen a guy be an elite player with no drop off for 20+ years. Its insane what lebron is doing. Players usually lose some ability as they get older, their impact diminishes and their role on the team shrinks. He's still has expection to carry a team to the playoffs and win a championship and that's crazy. No player at this stage of their career has had this burden.

In my honest opinion once LeBron does retire I highly doubt he has a farewell tour. If he does then he’s super bold because I can guarantee he’s going to get boo’d in every arena besides maybe Cleveland.. and I know for a fact he’s going to get boo’d in LA there’s no way the Lakers organization retire his jersey.. I can’t wait to sit back to watch when this day comes and he’s out the league for good.

[@benanderson2651]

You had me until the 4th chapter. It's older people holding onto the "legend" of Mike. Younger kids are more enamored with Curry than Mike. Without Nike, David Stern changing rules to favor MJ to feature dunking, and the aging of Kareem, Magic, Isaiah and Bird, Mike wouldn't be considered near as good.

[@robertryanmason1209]

LeBron is the GOAT easy Bigger, Stronger, Faster. More versatile can play 1-5 and guard 1-5, he’s a Swiss Army knife. LeBron has a better field goal percentage. LeBron has NEVER missed a playoff game, the best ability is availability. Faced much much better teams, super teams, in the nba finals. Never had the same HOF iconic coach to win. LONGEVITY: He has scored more points than anyone to ever play the game while being number number 4 in career assists, let that sink in. Could end up at number 2 when he retires. He didn’t have to retire right in the prime of his career, he just kept going on deep playoff runs. Lastly, Lebron has to play against the best of the world, while Jordan played against the best of the US. Think about the top 5 players they are all international players. Jordan with his shoes and when he was coming up did change the game If I need to win 1 game, I’d take Jordan, but if I need a long ass career of excellence and dominance, I’d take LeBron.

[@gaddyify]

I hate when they compare statistics, and don't point out the fact that MJ played college ball and won a national championship. And LeBron Came straight out of high school. MJ also retired for two years to play major league baseball. And LeBron played longer in the NBA. Of course he's going to have better stats. But explain the reason why????

[@user-gr6qx3up6w]

Some corrections for this vid: MJ played 15 seasons, not 13 (although the last 2 with the Wizards have nothing to do with his GOAT case - we all know his GOAT case is based strictly on his Bulls career, so saying 13 is understandable. Still, 15 is the actual number). Also, it says Lebron has been to 20 straight playoffs. This isn't true. He's missed the playoffs a few times. He's been to 18 playoffs total, and not all in a row.

I got Jordan as the GOAT but i every time I visit this conversation LeBron creeps up closer and closer. Im not mad at anyone who has Bron as their GOAT. He's actually a better all-around player than Jordan thats factual we can't even argue that. Jordan has more accodales so to that puts him a head. You kinda have to go to a combination of accoalades and stats when you have players so great. The 6-0 finals record no game sevens is damn near impossible to dispute. All you can really say is he never won without Scottie Pippen, since everyone always wants to knock lebron for putting himself in the best position to win by getting good teammates. Gotta keep that same energy with Jordan. End of the day i have both in my top 5 all time since of you lebron haters are out of pocked talking about 25-30 😂

[@bboycomedyhd]

MJ did more and he did it in less time… 6-0 in 15 seasons and really it was 13 seasons cause MJ went to play baseball… So MJ scored 32K points in 13 seasons and 6 rings in 13 seasons. Lebron is on year 21 with 3 rings and a bubble ring so 4..…3 different teams…Lebron is the only player that is able to act as the coach and GM too… Enough said!

[@albertdeguia1436]

This is a product of Le media, it’s just not debatable. The mind, will and skills all favor MJ all the way. So please stop!!! Lebron doesn’t even belong in the top ten, Le media are only hyping him up. Lebron doesn’t even be compared with Magic, Bird, Kobe, Jabbbar and all the greats of the game.
