      yep, ive said that previously, glad you pointed it out. Difference between them? Jordan was subtle doing to Red " johnny" Kerr and they would play jokes back and forth. Lebron? Walks up, makes sure everyone is looking. Making sure the cameras are out recording. Gets the chalk, doesn't even look at the scorers table because he could care less about them. THen he throws it up really high and holds his arms open for the shot and then goes to center court. The " look at me and post" generation.

    Appreciate your honest response and taking our advice on this video. I was blessed to see Magic, Kareem and Bird play, i saw MJ and then Kobe and Lebron. True honestly, there was nobody like MJ. The arena, the energy and intense energy and you knew and were waiting for something special.
    Remember a big fact. Jordan did the bulk of his stats over only ELEVEN YEARS. Let that sink in. One year, out with a broken foot, came back played only 17 games. Another year came back late from baseball only played 24 games. Those are two dead seasons for stats period. SO that leaves then when he came back hurt to play for the wizards at 39 and 40. That is why , his numbers are insaneeeeeeeeeee.
    Lets be honest, we all know why he got the longevity like many other players in this "softer rules" generation of basketball. Jordan wasn't injured during his years. Durable as all heck and started the whole training for fitness and strength in the nba with trainer Tim Grover (day Jordan retired Kobe called him and hired him) Jordan took care of himself and played all 82 games in 10 seasons. Lebron? He has done it 1 time and just tried to do it NOW and failed . Jordan played all 82 games his last year with the wizards, at 40.
    This generation of athletes are soft. They made their millions before even stepping on the court. No incentive at all to win. It's a buddy, buddy league, take the three pointer, do the dribble 20 times, one on one and little defense, traveling is almost never called and what an assist is considered now was NEVER an assist in all previous generations of basketball. Now we hear about the whole "workload management" crap LMAOOOO, Seriously? The 90's players didn't need that plus this generation being paid $20-$30-$40million per YEAR. Get their butts on the court. They lazy . Lebron gets a hangnail , needs to sit out for a week. Other players taking weeks off at a time. Lebron half the time doesn't run back on defense as you saw in the video and stilllll doing that current day. Talk about longevity. Anyone in this generation is going to be able to last 20+ seasons with that type of work ethic or lack thereof. Guess when lebron was last on the " All defensive team" ? 2013 and it was for 2nd team all defensive team. Jordan? His last year with the bulls in 98 when he retired at 35 , made all defensive 1st team LOL.
    It's why i said you had to watch this video and you said it, " it put it into perspective".
    Im sorry but Lebron is a player during the "internet/social media generation. Hype hype hype hype hype and PAID media to push the Lebron narrative. From ESPN to Klutch sports we have seen and heard the money and people being paid to hype him. There is no questions its been exposed. Honestly for me, i have him in top 10 but not top 5. About the total points record? Just about any scorer playing 22 season will do that. Karl Malone scored more than jordan so did Kobe all time but they played many more season than jordan. Why isn't Karl Malone in the discussion. I'll tell you why, MICHAEL JORDAN. Remember i mentioned Jordan's 11 seasons where the bulk of stats were done? It took lebron and kobe to their 17th SEASONS to pass jordan in all time scoring. So the all time scorer it total points doesn't hold a massive amount of weight when discussing the GOAT.
    It's all about getting FACTS and putting things into PERSPECTIVE. Look forward to your future videos.

    In an interview with MJ that aired prior to the ‘92 Finals against the Blazers, MJ stated that he chose not to shoot 3-pointers because it took away from his overall game…and said that he didn’t want to hang around the 3-point line waiting for someone to pass him the ball because he preferred to drive to the basket and draw the defenders into committing a foul so that he could shoot the easy free throw, and if he couldn’t drive to the basket, he preferred to shoot his jump shot if necessary…he was a unique specimen of an athlete.👽😉👍🔥

      Yep, the "shrug game" 1 when he scored 35 points in the first half which is still an NBA finals game record (and something very few mention is he actually played only half of the second quarter so actually it is 35 points in a quarter and a half) including 6 of 8 threes (ended up with 6 of 9) . One of the best performances of his career and one of the biggest blowouts in NBA's finals history! When it comes to MJ's performance in the finals there is so much to talk, would be nice if someone makes a video on that. Every Lebron fan should watch it and learn...

    A lot of people forget or don't know that jordan retired twice as the best player in the game. He retired in 94, and for 75% of the 95 season. Then he retired again as the best player in 1998. If jordan doesn't retire at minimum he gets another 1-2 rings, 1-2 finals mvps, another three 1st all defensive teams selections, which puts him 3 past everyone else, another 2-3 scoring titles, another 12k points, another 1-2 season mvps. So if he doesn't retire twice in my opinion he finishes with at least 7 season mvps, at least 8 rings, 8 finals mvps, 44k points, 12 1st all defensive selections, 13 scoring titles which he already owns the record of 10. Finishes 2nd in total steals.

    Imagine Bird's 3-point numbers if he grew up practicing shooting 3's since high school instead of his rookie year as a pro? The 3-point shot made its debut same year as Bird's rookie season. Back then 3-pointer was more of a strategic weapon...now, it's a joke. LeFraud ruined the game for me...watch his videos of him flopping and taking 5 steps but the refs are scared to call him for traveling. There's not 1 NBA team since Kobe and Shaq's Lakers that could hang with Barkley's or Dr J and Moses Malone's 76er's, Bird's Celtics, MJ's Bulls, the Bad Boy Pistons or Magic's Lakers...it was a completely different game. The only thing today's game and the games back then have in common is that the ball goes through a hoop.

    Bill Russell did win 11 championships but true hoop heads who know history understand that back in Bull Russells era there were less than 11 teams in the whole association. Also the regular season games played were less than 82 games a season. So although Bill Russell does have the most rings its basically apples vs oranges because of rule changes, amount of teams and fewer regular season games. It doesnt really translate well when Jordan had more games to play versus alot more teams than Bill Russell ever had to play against.

    I am old enough to have watched Jordan's Bulls. I was young and not a basketball fan, but when he came back from baseball, I HAD to watch the bulls because at some level, even as a non-basketball fan, I understood that I was watching something great. As in once in several lifetimes great. LeBron is great, but not several lifetimes great. Cheers!

    Jordan never saw a three point line until he got to the nba. It wasn't put in college until 87. And a large portion of the threes he took were buzzer beaters from wherever he was on the court. He shot threes for one half of one game. Game 1 of the 92 finals. He finished that half with 35 points on 6-8 from 3.

    Sorry for a second comment, but I just got to your comment about 3-point shooting. MJ was a 33% 3 pt shooter as mentioned. He refused to practice his 3 point shooting because “he didn’t want to be a player who floated to the 3-point line because that would take away from his aggressiveness going to the basket. BUT… when it mattered the most, Jordan rose to the occasion without practicing. His 3-point percentage in the NBA Finals was 38.

    We need more people like you who go into it as a LeBron fan and accept fact that Jordan is the goat. I saw him play as a bulls player when I was young. I saw him play as a wizards player where he had a stretch of like 6 games where he averaged 43 pts 5reb 5assists before being injured. You can even tell as a wizards player he had it but his body just couldn’t handle it anymore. I’ve seen LeBron James play all of his career and trust me he’s great but there’s no comparison.

    Russell is certainly top 10 all-time, and many would say top 5
    The detractor keeping him from GOAT is less competition in his era… and he was mostly a defensive player. Amazing athlete, perhaps the greatest defender all-time… but less potent on offense
    His stat line is 15/23/4, 44% shooting, 56% Free Throws (not a very good shooter)

    LBJ is a great player, no one will say he wasn't but when he went to sleep in the finals vs Dallas, I was like no way he's the GOAT. MJ never wanted to play with other greats, he wanted to beat them unlike LBJ. It's refreshing to see someone as young as you with an open mind that can admit when he's wrong and I loved your emotions while you were explaining yourself. Keep doing what you're doing because I'll be watching.

    Bill Russel wasn’t a 2 way player!
    Didn’t have any scoring titles
    Also the playoffs had 2 rounds for best of 2 games,
    There was also only 10 teams in the entire league!

    You might already know this...and I don't mean to rub salt in the wound...but LeBron's legendary chalk toss was another thing LeBron did to copy Jordan. Jordan had a funny routine before games where he would chalk his hands and then clap chalk as he was walking past the scorers table. It was more nuanced and humorous than a straight up "toss" but it was a famous chalk related pregame ritual where Jordan clapped chalk in a big cloud right in front of the announcers. The announcers (Johnny Red Kerr, etc) would play along -- each game they would interact with Jordan during the chalk cloud routine...they would pop umbrellas open at the last moment or put on face masks to block the chalk cloud. It was funny and the crowd looked forward to the chalk routine every game.
    Sorry...again, really not trying to gloat. But Jordan did that, too.
    Thank you so much for another great video! I'm having a great time today enjoying your Jordan reactions.
    Love your work...thanks again.

      Fun fact. In 02-03 at 40 Jordan ended his final season with a defensive rating of 102.9. mind you this is 40 year old Jordan battling bad knees all year that needed to be drained of fluid multiple times that year. That rating is better than 9 of LeBrons last 10 seasons. The only season he had a better rating, the 15-16 season, he had a 102.6, .3 better than MJ. This year his defensive rating is almost 118 which is abysmal. The last four years he hasn't had a rating higher than 111.4.

    Let me add something to think about: LeBron won his first title with Wade and Bosh. His 2nd was with Kyrie and K-Love. His last one was with an up-and-coming Kuzma and AD. In the video, the narrator mentions how the Warriors, as great as they were never won 3 straight championships. The Bulls did it twice. Those Warriors teams had Steph, Klay and KD, not to mention Iguodala coming off the bench. So you see how all of LeBron’s teams and even the Warriors were carried by multiple superstars. In Michael Jordan’s entire career, he had exactly one other teammate ever make an All-Star game: Scottie Pippen is the only one.
    And see, Pippen was incredible, but he was never THE guy… he was always the perfect complementary player but there really was no such thing as MJ having a tough night and Pippen going for 40. In the Bulls 6 Finals, they beat the Magic/Worthy/Byron Scott Lakers, the Drexler/Porter/Duckworth Blazers, the Barkley/Kevin Johnson/Marjele Suns, the Gary Payton/Shawn Kemp/Detlef Schrempf Sonics and then the Karl Malone/John Stockton/Jeff Hornacek Jazz the last 2. Every one of those teams had multiple All-Stars…. None of them could ever defeat Michael.

    Michael Jordan said that he didn't focus on three-point shots because it would take away from his other skills. In my opinion, the three-point shot is now ruining the NBA. Today's players are better three-point shooters, but a lot of players lack the other skills that Jordan mastered.

    Answer that Bill Russell question, he’s not in the conversation, because although he won more, Chamberlain was the better player. The 61-62 season was Russell’s best statistical year when he averaged 19 (career high 👀) and 24 rebounds… that’s the year at Wilt averaged, 50 and 26.

    If longevity was so important, Kareen should have been the goat all this time, not MJ. They praise longevity a lot these days just to try to convince people that LeBron is the goat, because that's the only thing he has. In everything else, it's MJ all day long.
    When they say LeBron has the stats, they're talking about absolute stats. But when you break it down to per-game stats, LeBron fals behind, as you can see.

  • @tiredoffools8929

    One thing that gets overlooked when the video goes into stats is the attempts.
    For instance when he says MJ led league in Win shares 8 times he’s not mentioning it was 8 times out of 13 seasons.
    While Lebron at that point in his career he only led the league in win shares 5 out of 17 times. That is a huge gap.

    Don't feel bad. When you didn't see MJ play and you grew up watching LeBron, you don't have anything to really compare with. You can only go with what you have witnessed. The majority of people that rank MJ as the GOAT actually saw him on the court as well as seeing LeBron on the court so they can look at the debate in a different light.

    Wilt 100% should be in the goat conversation.
    I think he isnt bc there isnt a ton of video on him bc of when he played. And there just tends to be he a bias against C and 7ft players in basketball.
    Lebron is in the conversation also, same as Bird, Magic and Kareem.
    I will always wonder if lebron played in the 80s a 90s and didnt get insane love from grade school up until the nba and handed the keys to the nba after entering. If he had to fight for playing time and attention in college and the nba if he would have out similar work and energy like MJ did, and if MJ would have out in less work if he came up in the 2000s when he would have been given tons of attention and love early on.
    The major difference imo is worth ethic and drive. Both are insanely skilled and athletic. One was driven to work out all his flaws bc he was publicly called out for all his flaws. Lebron was never called out in the same way(talking media)

One time they had on gas masks and another time they held up umbrellas. Long story short Lebron got the powder move from MJ🐐 He just switched it around. 💯
