    I think it's also worth noting that the players who played against/with MJ and chose Lebron as their GOAT consisted of only 3 players: Bill Laimbeer, Isiah Thomas, and Scottie Pippen. All of these 3 have noted their personal grudges against Michael Jordan. Obviously, I love these players and they are all all-time greats, but that's pretty interesting that the only 3 players to have witnessed Jordan live and voted against him also have personal reasons to dislike him.

      Tbh i love jxmys work but in this case i have some argues. Most important, 112 players is not concider a capable sample when we refer to tens of thaousands of players throughout the nba history. Second, sample should be taken equally from players of all decades wich is imposible to do now since players who played in the first decades are no longer alive or to old to even bother to concider participating in this serioucly. Third, an average player's opinion is not having the same importance as the one of a hof. HOF players usually play the game longer. In order to do that they must win more wich means they must be better of others. Being that allou them to understand and critisize others. Also this whould only means something if we somehow have a way to be sure that opinions are authentic and players not gonna change their mind ever, wich as you see from some players is way far from the trouth. So even if i find this channel the best in yt i have doubts about this one.

    I’m old enough to remember when Wilt would get talked about a lot more in these discussions. It would be curious to see what happens in a decade or two when people in their 40s and 50s never saw MJ play or don’t have any idea what the aura was that surrounded him while he was playing. LeBron is one of one but imagine the 2015-16 Warriors. Now imagine that level of fear in one player. That was Jordan.

      if anyone still denies MJ's status after his ultimate mixtape, his accomplishments, and records (reg season, post season, and career)...they can never be convinced...probably insist that 2+2=5 as well LOL...MJ was scoring on bigs of the 80's/90's like it was nothing...he'd do everything in his mixtape to today's current players...even Lebron...and probably be in their head and have them out of their game even before tip off with trash talk...

    Jordan was wholly obsessed with winning like no other player in NBA history. Thats what made him practice more, push his teammates more, and drove his killer instinct to be the best. Not to mention his natural ability was head and shoulders above everyone else. I watched him on TV growing up every chance I got. Saw the commercials. Watched people overseas mob him like a rock star. The NBA grew into an international business because of Jordan. People my age 45-50 know what im talking about. The things the man did on the court were unreal and the NBA blew up because of it. No one has had an impact the way MJ did.

Here's the problem. The hype, if a person says MJ the goat all the time, people will believe it. Watched people overseas mob him? They mobbed NBA players.How did he make the NBA an international sport? There's no NBA over here. I'm 57 and what you were saying isn't necessarily accurate, Things on the NBA were unreal, ok. but at the age of 45-50 have you seen Juius Erving play? I don't know about the NBA blew up because of him. What about Magic, Bird, Doc that were before him. David Stern also did a great job of marketing the league.

      I think his legacy gets hurt because the 70s really felt like a transitional era for basketball and Kareem's prime got stuck in that NBA history. That coupled with the fact that most of his championships were won when people considered him the second best player to Magic probably keeps a lot of people from really understanding how good he was.

    Kobe’s respect and admiration has always been much higher from his contemporaries and other hoopers than from the fans and the sports media that choose the award winners. Contemporary Testimonials will always be above the opinions of fans and media pundits, most of whom never actually played the sport. Fear and intimidation dont show up in the stat sheet. Kobe was 2nd to only Mike in that department

      Kobe beating Ray Allen + Paul Pierce + KG + Rondo (at his best) is always bigger than LBJ's competition. It is notable that Kobe welcomes adversity. I put him next to MJ, even if Wilt and Kareem is in the room.

    I remember watching MJ when he first came back from baseball. Before that, I thought that he was literally unbeatable. When he got eliminated in 95' I thought maybe he's just not MJ anymore... maybe things are different now and he's just like other great players who maybe got unlucky or beaten sometimes. It was a weird feeling because MJ losing a big game wasn't even on the table before that. Then he came back the next year and he led the greatest team of all time to a championship. When he was back, I felt like he was the same guy who had won the first 3 championships. He was absolutely untouchable. That feeling stayed with me until he took his final shot with the Bulls over Byron Russel to clinch game 6 of the NBA Finals. MJ at his best wouldn't/couldn't lose. Lebron is 95' MJ(45), he's capable of some great play, and winning a championship but he can be beaten by another great player or maybe lose a big series. The greatest players sometimes lose or get outplayed. When Jordan was at his best, he never let me think of him in any other way, he was unbeatable. That's why he's the GOAT.

      Once Bird retired, Jordan began to dominate. But these 2000 and later players and fans aren't up to snuff to truly judge who was the greatest all around player of all time - Larry Joe Bird, the "Legend".

    After watching countless debate videos, sports analysts debates, players debates and fans debates I realize that there's no such thing as GOAT because every great basketball legends and hall of famers have their own strength and weaknesses. If we should name the greatest of all-time it should be categorized, for example GOAT in Stats; GOAT in Skills, GOAT in Mentality, GOAT in Championship etc.. Etc.. I think that's the perfect way to do it 💪

      Not saying he isn't the goat. But like you mention yourself...you grew up watching him.

    For me it’s always been about “the eye test”. If you spend an hour watching LeBron highlights and then spend an hour watching MJ highlights it’s clear MJ is the better and more talented player.
    If you were at a playground watching guys play and MJ and LeBron were among them, if someone asked you who the best on the court was, most people would likely say MJ. He could just do things no one else could.
    And once you consider all that, afterwards, when you look at the stats and accolades, it solidifies that MJ is the GOAT… for me, the UNDISPUTED GOAT.

    Hey Jimmy, is there a way for you to calculate how INFLUENTIAL a player was? Meaning, how was the game changed after that player arrived? To me it is obvious how much the game and players have changed via Jordan and now Curry. But I would be curious to see how Dr. J and Kareem affected play after their tenure. And/or if there are other very influential players.

      3. Iverson (Put hip-hop style in the game)
      4. LeBron (player movement & pass-ball-to-the-open-man during crunch time)
      5. Curry (obvious here)
      6. Kenny Sailors (first man to shoot jump shot, ever)
      7. Harden (step-back)
      8. Wilt (widened free throw lane and put goaltending in the game)
      9. Hakeem (footwork)
      10. Kobe (work-ethic and taking triple-team shots)

    I’d like to preface this by saying that I played basketball in NYC in an all black high school and got my nick name from the brothers playing at The Cage and at Rucker Park. We were all trying to emulate what Larry bird was doing on the playground and it was impossible for us. However, I remember hearing what Pat Riley said, “If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game, I’d choose Michael Jordan, but if I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life, I’d take Larry Bird."
