    Did James ever make a hit movie with Bugs Bunny?

      tenacity is what sets MJ ahead of Lebron in my opinion. I know you can't measure it or keep stats on it but it's pretty obvious. Plus you have to admire a player that sticks to a team and makes them champions.

            He quit the team and went to play baseball. He then quit them again and went to play for the Wizards.

                The baseball thing was bizarre for sure but he wasn't chasing rings with another team... Comeback with the Wizards was a return after retirement and while he was the GM or President of Ops for the Wizards. He did not go to a stacked team to get/chase a ring.

                    LeBron quit his finals Cleveland team and went to go play for a super team....just like KD is getting chastised and ridculed for now.


                    Wizard talk is ridiculous here.


                    If LeBron is the best player because he gets his teams to the Finals and loses most of them in a weak division then Jim Kelly is a top 3 QB....

                      I'm in the Lebron camp (having grown up watching Jordon) but that right there is pretty **** funny! ... and kind of a good point... but only IF you could compare basketball to other sports like football or baseball.

                      It is kind of hard to compare stats from one generation to the next because of how the divisions line up, and how each division plays the game, or how the game as a whole is played. Like another poster mentioned, # of complete games pitched isn't really a big thing any more because that is no longer how the game is played with folks worrying about pitch count and rotations, and speed, blah, blah, blah.

                      Definitely a fun discussion... but I find the GOAT arguments to be somewhat moot since pretty much in a lot of cases, the game changes over time and it would be difficult to really do a straight up comparison between 2 completely different generations.

                        KD joined a team that beat him, and had won 73 games prior to him getting there. They won without him.

                        The Heat were nowhere near the Warriors.

                        Jim Kelly went to 4 Super Bowls and won zero. Lebron has been to 2x as many Finals and won 3 titles.

                        Jordan played in an weak East as well. Second best player on the Pacers teams were Davis Bros. or Rick Smits. That's not a good team. Second best player on the Knicks was John Starks. Again, not a good team.

                        Jordan never played anything like the Warriors ever.

                          Jim Kelly was a championship QB!

                            Jordan, James, Magic, Bird, Kobe

                            And if it weren’t for Magic and Bird there wouldn’t be an NBA for the others to play in

                              Lebron is more physically capable than Jordan, but he's nowhere near as tenacious or driven and that puts Jordan over the top, by a considerable margin in my opinion.

                              It's those 2 and then a whole bunch of others you can argue.

                                That's just flat wrong.
