Legacy? GOAT argument? LOL not even close...MJ has never lost a Finals Series, Never gone to a game 7, 6x Finals MVP...When he gets to Magic's 5 rings or KOBE's 5 Rings, heck even to Duncan's 4 rings, maybe he might have an argument...till then, MJ is still the man!!!

LeBron is a DOMINANT player... maybe more so that MJ, in the sense that he is a big boy that can will his way to the basket anytime... but no way is he comparable to any of the greats... he doesn't have the determination and mind for it. He would rather sit and coast the whole game, then be "brilliant" for a 4 minute stretch- so everyone grades him for those 4 minutes. Jordan and every other great... turned it on when they stepped on the floor.. not just when "the fans" needed it.

I mean when his career is over! lol sorry for the misunderstanding. When Lebron is all done and could definitely get 6 or more rings than i think it would be pretty hard to fight against Lebron.

Duncan has four and most people don't even know it
But I think we need to understand the context before comparing it to anyone else. These are different times.Last edited by cgb_orl; 06-21-2013 at 11:12 AM.

Is LeBron the best player in the league right now?
Yes.
Could he win more rings in the future?
Yes.
Will he, Kobe Bryant, or any of the other recent superstars ever compare to Michael?
No.
It is highly unlikely (though I won't say impossible) that anyone will ever reach Michael's status in pro basketball. Everything considered as a whole, Michael is still the best, and probably always will be in this sport.

lol @ LJ>MJ
Once Lebron wins 5 more Championships that don't go to a game 7 and 4 MVPS, and never loses a championship then yes, he is greater.
Oh wait....

They are going to have this arguement everytime he wins something. Times are completely different now then when MJ played, or even more different when Dr.J, Bird, and Magic played. Lebron is just the next in line. Very good, but not better.

I just don't get it, how can these arguments even come up? I was a kid when Jordan was owning the world for a decade, and still, I understood how special and magical what he was doing was. It was going to take someone to well EXCEDE what he did, not match it or slightly beat it, to become The Greatest Ever.

BOOOO! And hell to the no LeBron is not in MJ status. He has a ways to go. Jordan's legacy is more than MVP's and rings anyway.
