LeBron continuing to play is only going to bring down his PER average. It's like if Jordan never played for the Wizards, a lot of his career numbers would be even higher.
I wish someone would go back and adjust Jordan's assist numbers to reflect an assist by today's much more lenient definition. His assist numbers would be way more impressive than people would expect.

Lebron fans like to bring up MJ’s losses to the Celtics in the playoffs with five future hall of fame players. That same year he broke his foot, came back and still managed to make the playoffs.Scored 63 in game 1 took them to double overtime 50 points game 2, and 49 points game three loss to the Championship Celtics before Pippen was drafted.
Loved your reaction The 35 comment is factual bro Look at Jordans accomplishments at 35 compared to James lol you can even compare 35 year old Jordan to current James and it still is no contest.
No the playoffs ppg average Is arguably the most unbreakable because nobody has come even remotely close. The only player averaging over 30 in the playoffs for their career so far is Luka and he is WELL off pace.
The simplest way to end the GOAT debate. Jordan was the better scorer. He owns the highest career scoring averages in both the regular season (30.1) and playoffs (33.4), won a record 10 scoring titles, and has the most game winning shots in NBA history at 9 despite playing over 400 fewer games than Lebron James. Jordan was the better defender. A 9-time All Defensive First Team selection, he was named Defensive Player of the Year, won 3 three steals titles and has the third highest steals per game average in NBA history. Jordan also has the second most career blocks by any NBA guard. Michael Jordan was more athletic. His "Airness" owns the highest recorded vertical jump at 48", the longest hangtime at .92 seconds, and ran the 40 yard dash in roughly 4.3 seconds. Jordan was more clutch. MJ finished 119-60 in the playoffs, was 6-0 in the NBA Finals, and he won 6 Finals MVPs. Jordan has never lost a title game or series in college, the NBA, or international competition. Jordan was more efficient. He retired with a 27.91 Player Efficiency rating (PER), the third highest in NBA history and stands as the only guard in the Top 10. Jordan was a better leader. He never had coaches fired, demanded trades for new players, or formed super teams to increase his chances of winning. He also never missed a game for 9 different seasons (even at age 40), he never demanded anything from teammates he didn't do himself, and his Chicago Bulls were the only team to ever win two three-peats despite him retiring for 18 months from basketball. From November 1990 until 1998, the Bulls never lost three games in a row. Longevity does not beat unrivaled excellence. There is only one GOAT of basketball & his name is Michael Jeffrey Jordan.
You keep talking about Mr James so let's do it do you know why he's not the goat because he's lazy. Fact Played like 25 years and still can't shoot free throws kid's in highschool can do that. So you mean to tell me if he to one summer and worked on Free throws he won't be better. Yes he would. Fact Played for 25 years and never got better.do you think you could keep your job if you never got better. Fact Played 25 years still no post up game.. fact dose not play defense. Fact scared to drive the lane. Fact not really a good shooter.
Announcers said Jordan's name so many times during his career it almost was like ok we know he's not going to be able to stop saying jordan anytime soon 😂
One overlooked stat that hasn’t been broken even in today’s 3pt ruled NBA is the 63 points Jordan put up against the Celtics in his 2nd season (after being injured most the season with a broken foot) it’s crazy Jordan still holds the record for most points scored in a playoff game till this day
It is incredible he still holds it, but to me the most incredible thing about that record is who he made the record against dude... 5 HOFs Led by the best player in the league with the best defensive rating. Even if it gets broken, not all records are the same, putting 63 to that team in basically a 1v5 is just incredible.
@@seebbsss yeah I forgot to mention that part… Larry Bird called him a basketball God after the game. You won’t see Steph Curry calling Wemby a basketball ball God or anybody doing that to someone in their 2nd season. I wasn’t living then but my father (we are Chicago natives) put me on game to how horrible the Bulls were etc. I didn’t need the last dance documentary
Crazy stat: In his last year with the Bulls, MJ averaged holding the ball for just 3 mins 45 seconds per game and still scored a shade under 30 per game. So each quarter he held the ball for just a little over 56 seconds.
Yes. Michael Jordan retired in 2003 21 years later after he left the Washington Wizards. Hakeem Olajuwon of the Houston Rockets retired from them and later played for the Toronto Raptors before retiring. Scottie Pippen also, player for the Toronto Raptors. Jerry Stackhouse played alongside Michael Jordan with the Washington Wizards.
Answering the part of 15:23…..35 years old Lebron didn’t won mvp of the year mvp at the all star game the scoring titles mvp at the finals with a championship that’s what he was trying to say just think about it and with first team defense omg 😱 that’s greatness my boy oh forgot playing 82 games that’s crazy
Don't trip bro, I grew up in Chicago as a fan of MJ, and he's the greatest of all time, but Magic Johnson is my favorite player of all time. There's nothing wrong with having Lebron as your favorite.
Absolutely. Young generations should be more passionate about the players of their time. Respect what came before, but enjoy the current athletes and star players for who they are and the incredible skills they possess. I'm from the Jordan era and will always put him at the top, but there's some exciting talent in todays game especially coming out of Europe.
Michael Jordan played for 15 years a little longer than 13 years my man. He played for the Washington Wizards after retiring from the Chicago Bulls in 1998.
@@ChrisAndrewsHeavenAngel yeah, official number is 15 but real number is 13, he missed 90% of 85 season and 2002 season, but you are correct, oh yeah and also 95 season he only played 18 games or so, and it still counts. So he really did everything in around 11-12 seasons
@@seebbsss Thanks for agreeing with me. Still superiorally better than Lebron James who can't win consecutive NBA games in his entire basketball career. He lost the NBA Championship finals game to the Denver Nuggets Carmelo Anthony 'sold NBA team he traded or retired from. Lebron James needs to retire because he is destroying the Los Angeles Lakers legacy that Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant built for a long time.
When was the last time lebron played defense? When was the last time lebron made first team all defense team? He made the 2nd defensive team 2013-2014 season and hasn't been on 1st or 2nd team sense. umm annnnnd he was only 29 years old. You must understand something. This nba is soft, period. You sneeze its a foul. Stat padder nba. flops i mean very non physical unlike the 90's. Along with that, Jordan realististically played or did the BULK of his stats in 11 YEARSSSSSS only. His second year in the nba he broke his foot and only came back at the end and played only 17 games (and scored the record 63pts against boston with their 5 hall of famers) The other season was coming back late from baseball where he only played 24 games. Both season had almost or barely any impact on his stats. The other two seasons were with the wizards. One of the wizards seasons he played all 82 games, btw, and averaged almost 24pts and stats were on par at the top of the league. The other season he played 60 games then tore his acl. Both underrated season but at 40 playing all 82 games? His comeback was ruined by artest. If you saw jordan during that comeback during summer he was lean and looking old form and then artest snapped his ribs . It took forever to heal and when he came back he was good but heavier and completely disrupted what he would have done but still he did really well. SOOOO, at best 13 season and even then two of them was coming out of retirement after 3+ years. LOL . This isn't coming back into Golf or some other low impact sport but a sport of conditioning. It took Kobe (rip) and lebron till their 17th seasons to pass jordan on the all time scoring list. This is a hype hype generation. Media being paid (as we have found out ) to hype him, you have the media, this generation and the internet to do it. Jordan? he had no internet and didn't need it. Jordan, Magic and Bird never had big salaries. So many players had larger salaries then them (look it up) . They saved money, brought in role players and they want to WIN. Only at the end of his career, in the last two seasons he said to management, " Pay me what im worth" and that is when got $33 million and i think the other season was $30 million. Not one player or anyone said anything.
Nice assessment young Brother. I always felt Tim Duncan never got the respect he deserved as well. There's so many metrics for determining who is the greatest. Bank account, social media presence, community service, statistics ....and on it goes. But through all that noise....did your team win the tittle ? At the end of the day, players like him are only concerned with playing hard, without load management, and winning. Everything else is for Hollywood.
MJ made the playoffs every year until his Wizards years due to injury. Even before Pippen was drafted. It took Lebron 3 years to make his first playoffs. It took MJ 7 years to win his first championship. It took Lebron 9 years to win his first championship.
Advanced statistics are deceiving when it comes to margins. It's better to look at the distance between first and second and compare it to everyone else to show how big the gap actually is.
LeSocialist is a hero. Not for what he produced, but how he made people feel validated We don't have to produce at the same level, it must be granted to us. If white people were just granted access to the NFL or NBA black people would be the first to yell "you ain't as good"
I'm 60 years old, and Jordan was not my favorite player growing up playing basketball. Magic Johnson was my favorite player. But Jordan was the best of all and he is still the GOAT 🐐

I have to give you props even though you were saying a few times LeBron can do that. You didn’t spend the whole video looking frustrated and hating on Jordan like most LeBron fans do
Growing up with Bird, Magic, Kareem, Dr.J, Moses, Rodman, Jordan and Sir Charles Barkley truly made for a fun time to be a fan of basketball..Im not a fan of the game now days.. it's soft.. not taking away from the talent but the guys i grew up with were great because they played against one another.. Now days i just feel like the game has nothing to offer me. Thank you for the reaction my friend
People try to make it a OLD vs YOUNG thing and it’s NOT its simply that THESE CATS just NOT JORDAN and that goes for KOBE and WHOEVER it may CONCERN..THE BAR GETS NO HIGHER THAN JORDAN..SORRY NOT SORRY 😩😩

MJ left two years came back and continued to win championships smh LeBron hasn't retired so yea he was gonna catch him in some records but if Jordan never retired he woulda been unbeatable on records
Lebron isn't getting the PER stat at 40+ lol. lebron won a chip @35, but he didn't lead the league in scoring, or was on the all NBA first team along with first team all D, AND all star game MVP, pay attention to the vid. th-cam.com/video/Zeuk_qZXVXE/w-d-xo.html React to this under rated wizard years, and realize Mj at 40 is the greatest player at the age group all time.
Kareem was MVP of the finals at 38 . Won his last ring 41 years old . When Magic won finals MVP rookie year, Kareem was MVP of the NBA. That's longevity
No where close to the greatness Lebron put up. He has almost literally averaged the same numbers from 18 to 40. What are we talking about about? Lebron is clearly better than Kareem
@@chrisdontworry9394 What has LeBron won after 35 years old? Kareem won 3 rings after 35 and a finals MVP. He is top 3 all time scoring rebounds and blocks. Stats are fine. Winning is what counts. As for stats . How about 6 MVP awards in 9 years. Between 18 and 22 Kareem was winning NCAA titles. He only lost 2 games in college. Freshmen could not play varsity then. 3 championships Second year in the league he won his first ring. You could not go to the NBA until after your college eligibility. LeBron had a 4 year head start to break 1 of his records.
@@GregNewkirk-o8h 1st of all... Kareem is amazing! Top 5ish all time! But... Lebron has DOMINATED the NBA for 20 yrs! Kareem no where near as dominant over the career!
He's the greatest/best basketball player that has ever walked the earth and it ain't even close youngblood. Comparing LBJ to Jordan is like comparing a really nice guy to Jesus Christ. Seriously.
Imagine: We used to be able to see these games for free on tv back in the day and MJ still filled every stadium he played in!!! He was always worth watching in person and prices wouldn't equal your car note!!! MJ was must-see tv any time he stepped on the court because he always came to play (both ends of the court); he didn't take games off to "rest" and he never (even at 40 y/o) complained about the season being too long!!! There is no king; there is only The G.O.A.T.!!!!

@@emoneyyemon He is not the only one. LeBron way down the list. Kareem won 3 rings and a finals MVP after 35 years old. Finals MVP 38 years old. Last ring 41 years old. Retired at 42.
You got a remember from 1991 to 1998. The bulls have never lost more than two games in a row. Think about it that shit is unreal and Michael George is God.
I also stand and fight against the Legendary and greatness of M.J with his Legacy,Artistry,Consistency,and only the BEST and the GOD of Basket ball"NBA"History?👏👏👏👍👍👍💪💪🇨🇿
Let me tell you Lebron isn't better than Michael Jordan. You know it, but just can't say yet. 😂😂😂 you got to be kidding me LeBron won't break any of those records. I bet he only he has a few more yrs. I guarantee those records will never be broken.
NO , 'that playoff CAREER scoring AVERAGE' WONT BE AS EASY TO BEAT AS U THINK ... NOT '1' playoff season , an 'average' OF ALL the players playoff seasons (AT LEAST 5 ; Jordan played '13' playoff seasons, EVERY YEAR 'with the bulls')
That 33.4 for the play offs is for his career bro and not only for a single play off year. And yes that 40 back to back points in his 40 (came at the slowest phase for basketball) teams are averaging like 85-95 i think. That one can be broken due to the rules of the game today. And that 35 yrs old achievements are MVP FMVP Scoring champ Allstar MVP Defensive first team All NBA first team. Here’s a record for you 4 times this has been done in the history of the game again only 4 times MVP FMVP Scoring champ All NbA and All Defensive 1st team MJ all 4 times. That one should be added to the list. Or maybe he already did. It could have been more 93 and 97 are debatable if he could have had them as well.
WAIT now LeBron won a championship at 35 HOWEVER it’s THANKS TO AD..WHOM has been the BEST PLAYER OF THE LAKERS since ARRIVING and JORDAN didn’t have NOBODY to lean on the SCORING side AD’S WAY more dominant than PIPPEN..AD was SUPPOSED to be the BUBBLE GUM RING MVP😳
My guy... 33 ppg in the playoffs will never be broken. Name anybody right now who you think has a chance and look at their career ppg in the playoffs. The best are probably between 25 to 28ppg with 50 to 100 games played. That means to avg 33 they would have to average atleast 38 to 41 ppg for the same amount of games going forward and that ain't gonna happen, especially as they get older...
Mate, Alonzo Mourning is my favourite player. MJ is the GOAT. Who my favourite is doesn't play any part in my GOAT calculations. If it does, then you are bias. Thing is though, GOAT and favourite overlap for MJ fans. Don't be hard on them, they could never understand the way we see basketball and we could never truly understand them.
Bro its 33.5 ppg in playoffs in his career not in a season. Even if jalen averaged 38 ppg, he wouldnt be anywhere close to mj. Jalen would have to consistently put up those numders for like 7 seasons. Not close.
Lebron can't break any per-game records now, just career totals, some of which he already has (points, turnovers). The statistics per game will only decrease.
U Young people don't look up history before y'all call LeBron who left his team and needed help from superteams and still a loser and how he skipped Kobe
lil homie, Lebron won that BULLSHIT BUBBLE 'championship' at 35 years old ; where he, being the OLDEST SUPERSTAR IN THE LEAGUE GOT A 5 MONTH BREAK BEFORE THE PLAYOFFS BECAUSE OF A WORLD WIDE PANDEMIC , AND LEBRONS 2ND BEST PLAYER/ 2ND OPTION/ RUNNING MATE, BEING THE MOST INJURY PRONE SUPERSTAR IN THE LEAGUE 'ALSO' GOT A 5 MONTH BREAK BEFORE THE PLAYOFFS BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC ['and' did NOT get the scoring title, all star game mvp, or first team all defense at 35 years old; dont even think he was the regular season mvp EITHER); and before U start saying Lebron is as good or better after 35, 'Lebron' hasNT PLAYED DEFENSE SINCE HE LEFT MIAMI (not to mention ALL THE FLOPPING, NOT EVEN AT LEAST RUNNING BACK ON DEFENSE, COMPLAINING, AND GETTING PLAYERS TRADED AND COACHES FIRED BEHIND THEIR BACKS)
I don't think you really said rewind your mind. The older generations watched michael jordan live. You young people have to watch TH-cam to see it all. So if I was your generation should stop talking like you guys know what you are saying.
lil homie, DO YOUR RESEARCH .... 'wizards' Jordan ['still'] IS BETTER THAN 'lakers' Lebron (u could 'count on' Jordan TO MAKE FREE THROWS, Jordan 'still' PLAYED -G-R-E-A-T- DEFENSE/ Jordan did NOT complain, Jordan did NOT 'try' to play GM, Jordan did NOT FLOP, 'and' WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE 'more CLUTCH than' Lebron James)
LeBron is no where near as good as Jordan was at his age. I can tell you're very young lol. You need to go watch some Chicago Bulls games from back in the day. Great vid tho 💯
It’s comments like this that make Lebron fans look as stupid as most of them are: @OoogaBoog 5 days ago craziest Jordan record: Never winning against Bird in the playoffs. Because y’all never add context it makes you look even dumber and if this is the best you can come up with to try and sh1t on MJ in light of this video with all these facts that your boy LeCON can NEVER surpass it makes you look like the dumbest person to comment on this entire video blog. For context you should have added the following; Jordan had zero other All Stars vs the Celtics team (one of the best of all Time) with 5 Hall of Famers……so it wasn’t like he was just playing against Bird. You also leave out the fact that Jordan was playing with a team that were known for doing Cocaine aka “The Cocaine Traveling Circus” yet he still dropped a record 63 points in a Playoff Game that event today that your boy LeBum has not managed to even come remotely close to beating. Us MJ Fans we can be Petty like you LeBum fans and nitpick over little simple sh1t just as you did, for instance: Lebron NEVER beat Duncan in the Finals being SWEPTED 4-0 Lebron NEVER beat Curry in one of the Finals being SWEPTED 4-0 Lebron SWEPT in the Playoffs 4-0 by the Nuggets never beat Joker Lebron NEVER beat Novitsky in the Finals Lebron NEVER beat Jason Terry in the Finals Lebron FAILED to make the Playoffs in 2004, 2005, 2019 and 2023 Lebron NEVER beat the KD lead GSWs Lebron the FIRST and ONLY Player to get SWEPT in TWO DIFFERENT DECADES You see how this works?? Stop with the nonsense nitpicking, and if you are going to do so, then please be sure to add CONTEXT otherwise you just look like an MJ Hater that simply nitpicks to try and sh1t on Jordan in order to try to make Lebron look better………………..IT DOESN’T WORK because we (MJ Fans) can take a more GIANT SH1T on Lebron than you could ever do on Jordan.

Michael Jordan was more athletic. His "Airness" owns the highest recorded vertical jump at 48", the longest hangtime at .92 seconds, and ran the 40 yard dash in roughly 4.3 seconds.
Jordan was more clutch. MJ finished 119-60 in the playoffs, was 6-0 in the NBA Finals, and he won 6 Finals MVPs. Jordan has never lost a title game or series in college, the NBA, or international competition.
Jordan was more efficient. He retired with a 27.91 Player Efficiency rating (PER), the third highest in NBA history and stands as the only guard in the Top 10.
Jordan was a better leader. He never had coaches fired, demanded trades for new players, or formed super teams to increase his chances of winning. He also never missed a game for 9 different seasons (even at age 40), he never demanded anything from teammates he didn't do himself, and his Chicago Bulls were the only team to ever win two three-peats despite him retiring for 18 months from basketball.

One overlooked stat that hasn’t been broken even in today’s 3pt ruled NBA is the 63 points Jordan put up against the Celtics in his 2nd season (after being injured most the season with a broken foot) it’s crazy Jordan still holds the record for most points scored in a playoff game till this day
It is incredible he still holds it, but to me the most incredible thing about that record is who he made the record against dude... 5 HOFs Led by the best player in the league with the best defensive rating.
Even if it gets broken, not all records are the same, putting 63 to that team in basically a 1v5 is just incredible.
@@seebbsss yeah I forgot to mention that part… Larry Bird called him a basketball God after the game. You won’t see Steph Curry calling Wemby a basketball ball God or anybody doing that to someone in their 2nd season. I wasn’t living then but my father (we are Chicago natives) put me on game to how horrible the Bulls were etc. I didn’t need the last dance documentary
Crazy stat: In his last year with the Bulls, MJ averaged holding the ball for just 3 mins 45 seconds per game and still scored a shade under 30 per game. So each quarter he held the ball for just a little over 56 seconds.
The most efficient scorer ever. No wasted movement ever
You keep saying this person could or that person could fact Jordan has been retired for 21 years and no one has touched his records
Yes. Michael Jordan retired in 2003 21 years later after he left the Washington Wizards. Hakeem Olajuwon of the Houston Rockets retired from them and later played for the Toronto Raptors before retiring. Scottie Pippen also, player for the Toronto Raptors. Jerry Stackhouse played alongside Michael Jordan with the Washington Wizards.
When he scored 37pts per game that season . He only had 12- 3 pointers made that whole season.
That is a crazy stat that gets conveniently ignored by the haters. He only attempted 28 for the season. Out of this world.
Answering the part of 15:23…..35 years old Lebron didn’t won mvp of the year mvp at the all star game the scoring titles mvp at the finals with a championship that’s what he was trying to say just think about it and with first team defense omg 😱 that’s greatness my boy oh forgot playing 82 games that’s crazy
I can’t believe I’m hearing this from a lebron fan 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽thanks for being real
Don't trip bro, I grew up in Chicago as a fan of MJ, and he's the greatest of all time, but Magic Johnson is my favorite player of all time.
There's nothing wrong with having Lebron as your favorite.
Absolutely. Young generations should be more passionate about the players of their time. Respect what came before, but enjoy the current athletes and star players for who they are and the incredible skills they possess. I'm from the Jordan era and will always put him at the top, but there's some exciting talent in todays game especially coming out of Europe.
Timmy D is my favorite player, but MJ wasn't human
Jordan only played 13 years. Mr. James has played like 25 and still hasn't passed him
Michael Jordan played for 15 years a little longer than 13 years my man. He played for the Washington Wizards after retiring from the Chicago Bulls in 1998.
@@ChrisAndrewsHeavenAngel yeah, official number is 15 but real number is 13, he missed 90% of 85 season and 2002 season, but you are correct, oh yeah and also 95 season he only played 18 games or so, and it still counts. So he really did everything in around 11-12 seasons
@@seebbsss Thanks for agreeing with me. Still superiorally better than Lebron James who can't win consecutive NBA games in his entire basketball career. He lost the NBA Championship finals game to the Denver Nuggets Carmelo Anthony 'sold NBA team he traded or retired from. Lebron James needs to retire because he is destroying the Los Angeles Lakers legacy that Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant built for a long time.
@@seebbsssand his body didn't hold up, that matters in this debate.
@@ChrisAndrewsHeavenAngelwhat in the entire fuck are you talking about?
Mj dad was killed. Thats why he left for 2 years. If his dad didnt die,mj would have had 8 straight rings in the modern nba.
Labron 6 final failures.
The drama on the court. Like the broken wrist. That crap. "he can do that" what ifs don't count.😂
When was the last time lebron played defense? When was the last time lebron made first team all defense team? He made the 2nd defensive team 2013-2014 season and hasn't been on 1st or 2nd team sense. umm annnnnd he was only 29 years old. You must understand something. This nba is soft, period. You sneeze its a foul. Stat padder nba. flops i mean very non physical unlike the 90's. Along with that, Jordan realististically played or did the BULK of his stats in 11 YEARSSSSSS only.
His second year in the nba he broke his foot and only came back at the end and played only 17 games (and scored the record 63pts against boston with their 5 hall of famers) The other season was coming back late from baseball where he only played 24 games. Both season had almost or barely any impact on his stats. The other two seasons were with the wizards. One of the wizards seasons he played all 82 games, btw, and averaged almost 24pts and stats were on par at the top of the league. The other season he played 60 games then tore his acl. Both underrated season but at 40 playing all 82 games? His comeback was ruined by artest. If you saw jordan during that comeback during summer he was lean and looking old form and then artest snapped his ribs . It took forever to heal and when he came back he was good but heavier and completely disrupted what he would have done but still he did really well. SOOOO, at best 13 season and even then two of them was coming out of retirement after 3+ years. LOL . This isn't coming back into Golf or some other low impact sport but a sport of conditioning. It took Kobe (rip) and lebron till their 17th seasons to pass jordan on the all time scoring list. This is a hype hype generation. Media being paid (as we have found out ) to hype him, you have the media, this generation and the internet to do it. Jordan? he had no internet and didn't need it.
Jordan, Magic and Bird never had big salaries. So many players had larger salaries then them (look it up) . They saved money, brought in role players and they want to WIN. Only at the end of his career, in the last two seasons he said to management, " Pay me what im worth" and that is when got $33 million and i think the other season was $30 million. Not one player or anyone said anything.
Nice assessment young Brother. I always felt Tim Duncan never got the respect he deserved as well. There's so many metrics for determining who is the greatest. Bank account, social media presence, community service, statistics ....and on it goes. But through all that noise....did your team win the tittle ? At the end of the day, players like him are only concerned with playing hard, without load management, and winning. Everything else is for Hollywood.
They left out how many times can say a players name during their career 😂
How many years will it take Lebron to catch up to what MJ did in just 13 years with the Bulls?
That easily could and should be another title
MJ made the playoffs every year until his Wizards years due to injury. Even before Pippen was drafted. It took Lebron 3 years to make his first playoffs. It took MJ 7 years to win his first championship. It took Lebron 9 years to win his first championship.
Advanced statistics are deceiving when it comes to margins. It's better to look at the distance between first and second and compare it to everyone else to show how big the gap actually is.
lebron not averaging no damn 30 points in the damn post season neither in the regular season 🤣
Mike was a dog too. Mike would punch you in the face. Hakeem was beating mf's up too. Bird and Isaiah would fight too.
LeSocialist is a hero. Not for what he produced, but how he made people feel validated We don't have to produce at the same level, it must be granted to us. If white people were just granted access to the NFL or NBA black people would be the first to yell "you ain't as good"
Can't take him serious with his mom bonnet on his head lmfaooooo 😂😂😂
I'm 60 years old, and Jordan was not my favorite player growing up playing basketball. Magic Johnson was my favorite player. But Jordan was the best of all and he is still the GOAT 🐐
Michael Jordan The Greatest The Goat 🐐 Of Basketball Period!!!!! Offensive and Defensive Juggernaut A Killer The Bar The Standard of Excellence Basketball and ALL SPORTS.... IF YOU THE GREATEST AT YOUR SPORT YOU IS THE MICHAEL JORDAN OF PAUL MOHOMES MUHAMMAD ALI LAILA ALI MESSI SIMONE BILES TIGER WOODS WAYNE GREZTY MAYWEATHER TOM BRADY SERENA WILLIAMS THEY ALL IS THE MICHAEL JORDAN OF!!!!! AIN'T NONE OF THE GREATEST ATHLETES THE LEBRON OF.... IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!
I have to give you props even though you were saying a few times LeBron can do that. You didn’t spend the whole video looking frustrated and hating on Jordan like most LeBron fans do
Growing up with Bird, Magic, Kareem, Dr.J, Moses, Rodman, Jordan and Sir Charles Barkley truly made for a fun time to be a fan of basketball..Im not a fan of the game now days.. it's soft.. not taking away from the talent but the guys i grew up with were great because they played against one another.. Now days i just feel like the game has nothing to offer me. Thank you for the reaction my friend
@@TonyWaller-oy8ls True
People try to make it a OLD vs YOUNG thing and it’s NOT its simply that THESE CATS just NOT JORDAN and that goes for KOBE and WHOEVER it may CONCERN..THE BAR GETS NO HIGHER THAN JORDAN..SORRY NOT SORRY 😩😩
To address the PER being broken. Someone gotta come in the league and be better than Lebron. It's been 30 years lmao
12:50 So, you ADMIT you would talk shiit on Mike❓❓❓Don’t ever let him hear you or he’ll piss you off🤣😂😂🤣Watch the videos about people talkin shiit on Mike and see if you feel the same by the end😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
Nah dog. Talking ish to Mike os an easy way to catch an L, and get embarrassed in the process
I respect those who like Lebron and respects those who like Jordan and vice versa
MJ left two years came back and continued to win championships smh LeBron hasn't retired so yea he was gonna catch him in some records but if Jordan never retired he woulda been unbeatable on records
Lebron isn't getting the PER stat at 40+ lol. lebron won a chip @35, but he didn't lead the league in scoring, or was on the all NBA first team along with first team all D, AND all star game MVP, pay attention to the vid. th-cam.com/video/Zeuk_qZXVXE/w-d-xo.html React to this under rated wizard years, and realize Mj at 40 is the greatest player at the age group all time.
Kareem was MVP of the finals at 38 . Won his last ring 41 years old . When Magic won finals MVP rookie year, Kareem was MVP of the NBA. That's longevity
No where close to the greatness Lebron put up. He has almost literally averaged the same numbers from 18 to 40. What are we talking about about? Lebron is clearly better than Kareem
@@chrisdontworry9394 What has LeBron won after 35 years old? Kareem won 3 rings after 35 and a finals MVP. He is top 3 all time scoring rebounds and blocks. Stats are fine. Winning is what counts. As for stats . How about 6 MVP awards in 9 years. Between 18 and 22 Kareem was winning NCAA titles. He only lost 2 games in college. Freshmen could not play varsity then. 3 championships
Second year in the league he won his first ring. You could not go to the NBA until after your college eligibility. LeBron had a 4 year head start to break 1 of his records.
@@chrisdontworry9394 LeBron 10 finals 6 losses. Kareem 10 finals 6 rings
@@chrisdontworry9394 LeBron 6 all defensive teams. Kareem 11 . Clearly better? Are you serious ?
@@GregNewkirk-o8h 1st of all... Kareem is amazing! Top 5ish all time! But... Lebron has DOMINATED the NBA for 20 yrs! Kareem no where near as dominant over the career!
He's the greatest/best basketball player that has ever walked the earth and it ain't even close youngblood. Comparing LBJ to Jordan is like comparing a really nice guy to Jesus Christ. Seriously.
Dang I thought this guy was ja morant
Imagine: We used to be able to see these games for free on tv back in the day and MJ still filled every stadium he played in!!! He was always worth watching in person and prices wouldn't equal your car note!!! MJ was must-see tv any time he stepped on the court because he always came to play (both ends of the court); he didn't take games off to "rest" and he never (even at 40 y/o) complained about the season being too long!!! There is no king; there is only The G.O.A.T.!!!!
'i' DONT CARE WHO your 'favorite' is; 'long as' U SAY [admit, know, and recognize] Michael Jordan IS the G.O.A.T., u got my respect and u get a 'like' on the video from me
You was spot on with Tim Duncan
we know he won at 35 is he winning anymore no its over that 2020 ring is considered an astritis
@@emoneyyemon He is not the only one. LeBron way down the list. Kareem won 3 rings and a finals MVP after 35 years old. Finals MVP 38 years old. Last ring 41 years old. Retired at 42.
The craziest record is 0.92 seconds
Homeboy no one is doing that
That 22 point game in the 97 finals Jordan didn't play the second half because they were up so much.
You got a remember from 1991 to 1998. The bulls have never lost more than two games in a row. Think about it that shit is unreal and Michael George is God.
I also stand and fight against the Legendary and greatness of M.J with his Legacy,Artistry,Consistency,and only the BEST and the GOD of Basket ball"NBA"History?👏👏👏👍👍👍💪💪🇨🇿
Watch his historic bulls mixtape
Let me tell you Lebron isn't better than Michael Jordan. You know it, but just can't say yet. 😂😂😂 you got to be kidding me LeBron won't break any of those records. I bet he only he has a few more yrs. I guarantee those records will never be broken.
Lebron wears Jordan's, Jordan does not wear Lebron's. Enough said!!
33.4points entire careers not just 16 games.
Sorry you didn't see it. Everyone one earth back then was watching, because it was really something else. Every time he put on a pair of sneakers.
He said come close on defense not winning a championship
And if Kyrie didnt get that shot. Curry would have had 4peat!
Lebron will never touch Jordan’s playoff ppg average
NO , 'that playoff CAREER scoring AVERAGE' WONT BE AS EASY TO BEAT AS U THINK ... NOT '1' playoff season , an 'average' OF ALL the players playoff seasons (AT LEAST 5 ; Jordan played '13' playoff seasons, EVERY YEAR 'with the bulls')
Jordan dominated the sport when it was full of hall of famers. Lebron would be an average player in the early 90’s
lil homie, EVEN IF Duncan WAS 6-0 IN THE FINALS, 'he' wouldNT have '6' MVPs THO
That 33.4 for the play offs is for his career bro and not only for a single play off year. And yes that 40 back to back points in his 40 (came at the slowest phase for basketball) teams are averaging like 85-95 i think. That one can be broken due to the rules of the game today. And that 35 yrs old achievements are MVP FMVP Scoring champ Allstar MVP Defensive first team All NBA first team.
Here’s a record for you
4 times this has been done in the history of the game again only 4 times
MVP FMVP Scoring champ All NbA and All Defensive 1st team
MJ all 4 times. That one should be added to the list. Or maybe he already did. It could have been more 93 and 97 are debatable if he could have had them as well.
WAIT now LeBron won a championship at 35 HOWEVER it’s THANKS TO AD..WHOM has been the BEST PLAYER OF THE LAKERS since ARRIVING and JORDAN didn’t have NOBODY to lean on the SCORING side AD’S WAY more dominant than PIPPEN..AD was SUPPOSED to be the BUBBLE GUM RING MVP😳
Lebron played 8 years longer an still hasn’t caught up
My guy... 33 ppg in the playoffs will never be broken. Name anybody right now who you think has a chance and look at their career ppg in the playoffs. The best are probably between 25 to 28ppg with 50 to 100 games played. That means to avg 33 they would have to average atleast 38 to 41 ppg for the same amount of games going forward and that ain't gonna happen, especially as they get older...
Mate, Alonzo Mourning is my favourite player. MJ is the GOAT. Who my favourite is doesn't play any part in my GOAT calculations. If it does, then you are bias. Thing is though, GOAT and favourite overlap for MJ fans. Don't be hard on them, they could never understand the way we see basketball and we could never truly understand them.
Why do MJ fans act like lebron fans being converted? So sad
Bro its 33.5 ppg in playoffs in his career not in a season. Even if jalen averaged 38 ppg, he wouldnt be anywhere close to mj. Jalen would have to consistently put up those numders for like 7 seasons. Not close.
I would be embarrassed to be a LeBron fan.
Lebron can't break any per-game records now, just career totals, some of which he already has (points, turnovers). The statistics per game will only decrease.
Lebron your favorite over MJ, yeah we can tell you a young man... Just don't know I see, Glad I 'm from the era of the 🐐... Air Jordan ! 🛫
U Young people don't look up history before y'all call LeBron who left his team and needed help from superteams and still a loser and how he skipped Kobe
lil homie, Lebron won that BULLSHIT BUBBLE 'championship' at 35 years old ; where he, being the OLDEST SUPERSTAR IN THE LEAGUE GOT A 5 MONTH BREAK BEFORE THE PLAYOFFS BECAUSE OF A WORLD WIDE PANDEMIC , AND LEBRONS 2ND BEST PLAYER/ 2ND OPTION/ RUNNING MATE, BEING THE MOST INJURY PRONE SUPERSTAR IN THE LEAGUE 'ALSO' GOT A 5 MONTH BREAK BEFORE THE PLAYOFFS BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC ['and' did NOT get the scoring title, all star game mvp, or first team all defense at 35 years old; dont even think he was the regular season mvp EITHER); and before U start saying Lebron is as good or better after 35, 'Lebron' hasNT PLAYED DEFENSE SINCE HE LEFT MIAMI (not to mention ALL THE FLOPPING, NOT EVEN AT LEAST RUNNING BACK ON DEFENSE, COMPLAINING, AND GETTING PLAYERS TRADED AND COACHES FIRED BEHIND THEIR BACKS)
What championship he won 😂😂😂😂that bubble gum ass ring
I don't think you really said rewind your mind. The older generations watched michael jordan live. You young people have to watch TH-cam to see it all. So if I was your generation should stop talking like you guys know what you are saying.
How can u put a 50 Year old man on game stop it Young man
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
lil homie, DO YOUR RESEARCH .... 'wizards' Jordan ['still'] IS BETTER THAN 'lakers' Lebron (u could 'count on' Jordan TO MAKE FREE THROWS, Jordan 'still' PLAYED -G-R-E-A-T- DEFENSE/ Jordan did NOT complain, Jordan did NOT 'try' to play GM, Jordan did NOT FLOP, 'and' WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE 'more CLUTCH than' Lebron James)

Ja Morant eyyy!
LeBron is no where near as good as Jordan was at his age. I can tell you're very young lol. You need to go watch some Chicago Bulls games from back in the day. Great vid tho 💯

craziest Jordan record: Never winning against Bird in the playoffs.
It’s comments like this that make Lebron fans look as stupid as most of them are:

craziest Jordan record: Never winning against Bird in the playoffs.
Because y’all never add context it makes you look even dumber and if this is the best you can come up with to try and sh1t on MJ in light of this video with all these facts that your boy LeCON can NEVER surpass it makes you look like the dumbest person to comment on this entire video blog.
For context you should have added the following; Jordan had zero other All Stars vs the Celtics team (one of the best of all Time) with 5 Hall of Famers……so it wasn’t like he was just playing against Bird.
You also leave out the fact that Jordan was playing with a team that were known for doing Cocaine aka “The Cocaine Traveling Circus” yet he still dropped a record 63 points in a Playoff Game that event today that your boy LeBum has not managed to even come remotely close to beating.
Us MJ Fans we can be Petty like you LeBum fans and nitpick over little simple sh1t just as you did, for instance:
Lebron NEVER beat Duncan in the Finals being SWEPTED 4-0
Lebron NEVER beat Curry in one of the Finals being SWEPTED 4-0
Lebron SWEPT in the Playoffs 4-0 by the Nuggets never beat Joker
Lebron NEVER beat Novitsky in the Finals
Lebron NEVER beat Jason Terry in the Finals
Lebron FAILED to make the Playoffs in 2004, 2005, 2019 and 2023
Lebron NEVER beat the KD lead GSWs
Lebron the FIRST and ONLY Player to get SWEPT in TWO DIFFERENT DECADES
You see how this works?? Stop with the nonsense nitpicking, and if you are going to do so, then please be sure to add CONTEXT otherwise you just look like an MJ Hater that simply nitpicks to try and sh1t on Jordan in order to try to make Lebron look better………………..IT DOESN’T WORK because we (MJ Fans) can take a more GIANT SH1T on Lebron than you could ever do on Jordan.
lebron is trash LOL
Your favorite vs whos arguably the best are 2 completely different things
