One of the most talked about accomplishments of LeBron's entire career is that he went to EIGHT consecutive NBA finals. But how impressive of a feat was that actually when evaluating the competition he faced during the runs?

The Heat were literally called a Super Team TM for a reason and were expected to WIN. Lebron is famous for bragging, "not 1, not 2..." and then immediately loses to a team that Wade had already beaten in the finals. It's one of the most laughable things in human history and I'm astonished that people defend this bs.

MJ had more All-NBA/DEF & All-Star teammates, as well as award winners & league leader teammates than anyone from '90-'98. So he had the most "help" by far. If you stripped every star from their respective teams in the 90's, the Bulls without MJ would be the best supporting cast. Nice try, I guess. Pippen & MJ played 116 games in their 6 title runs. Pippen beat out MJ in totals in rebounds, assists, steals & blocks. TALK ABOUT HELP!

I saw something in another video that puts things into perspective when people say LeBron James faced tougher competition in the NBA finals than Michael Jordan faced. True, MJ never had to face an NBA champion juggernaut team like the mid-2010s Warriors (whom LBJ managed to beat only ONCE in 4 finals). But that's because MJ's Bulls WERE the NBA champion juggernaut team that kept all the other teams from winning rings. So the video asked this question: Which is more impressive - LBJ beating the juggernaut team of his era ONCE in FOUR finals; or MJ's team BEING the juggernaut team of his era which won SIX of SIX NBA finals? Because MJ's Bulls did something the mid-2010s Warriors were unable to do - 3-peat. And MJs bulls did this TWICE! So, NO, winning ONE finals and LOSING THREE to the Warriors does NOT make LBJ the GOAT, nor does going 4 of 6 in Finals make the Warriors a better team than the 1990s Bulls teams lead by MJ that 3-peated TWICE. In all 6 Finals he played, MJ was CLEARLY the best player on the court, while in all 6 of LBJs finals losses SOMEONE ELSE was the best player on the court, and in at least one (2011) LBJ wasn't even the best player on his own team. To paraphrase the self-proclaimed "Chosen One": "This right here shows EVERYONE that LBJ is NOT the Goat."

That’s what I’m always saying to those delusional Bron fans. How can other teams build their dynasty if there’s a conquering team that kept dismantling them. And they will make a notion that the Bulls played in a weak era. Well it’s just a logical way to understand that, because they’re not good enough to defeat the conquering team (the Bulls).

Finally for all the incredible help you claim MJ had his supporting cast was outscored by his opponents best players supporting cast in all 6 NBA finals he played in. Can't say the same for LeBron.

When Lebron played in the East the conference was so weak they nicknamed it “The Leastern Conference.” Lebron never had to face the physical teams that Michael Jordan had to beat to reach the Finals. Teams like the Pistons, Pacers, Cavaliers and 50 win teams like the New York Knicks and Atlanta Hawks. Michael Jordan beat more 60 win teams in the playoffs than Lebron and Kobe combined. During the Bulls championship run between 1991-92-93 and 1996-97-98, Jordan’s Bulls went an astonishing 388-104 during the regular season, that means out of the nearly 500 regular season games the Bulls played they only lost 100 games. What makes that even more amazing, it’s excluding postseason play.

2007 Spurs SWEPT Lebron in 2007 (and Bron Bron had a LOT of help in that series, his TEAMMATES played AMAZING defense and kept every single game close, average margin of victory was ~6 points, but Bron shot below 40% and led all players in TOs, a common theme in his Finals runs that nobody talks about - he's a TURNOVER MACHINE). 2008 Kobe GENTLEMAN SWEEPS THE SAME SPURS TEAM THAT SWEPT LeSteroids (remember, he takes EPO and HGH) 4-1. 2009 Orlando beats LeEPO 4-2, Kobe GENTLEMAN SWEEPS THEM 4-1. 2010 Boston beats LeHGH 4-2, Kobe COMES BACK from a deficit 3-2 and wins BACK TO BACK elimination games to beat Boston 4-3 while OUTREBOUNDING the entire Celtics team in game 7, 15 rebounds, the next closest Celtic had 10. KOBE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than Lebron. In fact, anybody who tells me they have Lebron over Kobe i IMMEDIATELY lose respect for their intellect. It's the greatest IQ test ever: Kobe or Lebron Simple: High IQ people pick Kobe because they understand that WINNING isn't reducible to a box score; low IQ people pick Lebron because they fetishize decontextualized stats that often had no real-time effect on WINNING. I could write a whole article on this.

@@LeHitler you talk like its not a difference only by decimals yet MJ almost doubled the points. Its so funny has casuals only rely on stats yet don't know how a leader should be. MJ is a shooting guard who prioritizes scoring. He held his teammates to fulfill their roles. Instead of waiting for a defensive rebound he runs on the other end for an easy basket trusting his Big guys get the rebound. Pippen was partly has the role of a PG where he runs the triangle offense as MJ goes on the post, that's where he got most of his assist. If you really wanna see who hustles more check MJ and Lebron's offensive rebounds and steals. lol.. Lebron in his 21 years haven't reached MJ in Offensive boards despite being bigger. Lol.. Lebron gets freebies from making his centers boxout for him like WB and Harden and SF tends to get the rebound on missed free throws. You don't know a crap in a team game and how it works. Educate yourself. lmao..

@@Lovechie4life MJ did score more, he also led the league in attempts 9x. I would hope he'd lead his team in scoring if he's shooting so much more than anyone else. Just for perspective, LeBron has NEVER led the league in attempts. No one since MJ has even led more than 5x. MJ & Malone played 6 games in the '98 Finals, MJ shot 50 more attempts than Malone. That's 2 games worth of shots. MJ was a volume shooter. Efficient, but volume nonetheless. MJ also didn't have to do anything but score, so he played with more energy to even wanan crash the glass offensively. LeBron has to do virtually everything for his team, so he preserves his energy. Doesn't mean he isn't capable. You idiots even comparing a 38 year old in his 21st season to prime MJ, says everything. MJ was retired by year 15 AFTER he took off 3 years already. Pathetic.

I still think the league screwed over Melo in the draft with that random move to Denver instead of Detroit so that LeBron would have an easier path in the Eastern Conference. Melo in Detroit would have made it harder for the league's chosen one to dominate in the East and he would have won a championship his first year in Detroit and they probably would have beaten the Spurs in 2005 (Detroit lost in that 2005 Finals because they lacked offense which was what Melo could have given them). Plus, Melo should have won Rookie of the Year, he had the same numbers as LeBron that season, plus he made the playoffs in the tougher conference while LeBron missed the playoffs in a weaker conference. And LeBron had no business getting swept in the 07 Finals. The Spurs didn't dominate in that series, the games were close, Duncan and Ginobli played average and Parker basically carried the team. LeBron got outplayed by Daniel Gibson off the bench game 1 and then had the most turnovers in the entire Finals. He had help from his teammates but he couldn't close out the games. Mind you, the last 2 games in Cleveland, the Spurs won game 3 by 3 points and game 4 by 1 point. LeBron had no business losing in 2015 when he was up 2-1 without Kyrie and Love and he allowed Iggy to come off the bench and change the series....SMH!!! And 2018 was no excuse either for getting swept. The Cavs could have won game 1 in overtime but LeBron had a meltdown and quit on his team instead of leading his team in overtime for the win and game 3 was winnable because Steph, Klay and Draymond played like garbage with 27 points COMBINED and KD literally had to carry the game for the Warriors. Plus, Love was dominating in the first half and Rodney Hood was playing well but LeBron wanted to play heroball and didn't want to let Rodney shine and stopped feeding Love the ball in the 2nd half. LeBron wanted to get to swept to justify leaving the Cavs AGAIN on the guise that "he had no help" narrative. And the fake cast in the game 4 postgame claiming he hurt his hand to justify ANOTHER FINALS SWEEP yet was doing a 2 handed dunk in game 3 and was dapping his boys with that same hand game 4 was RIDICULOUS...SMH!!!

MJ played with 4 hall of famers and won 6 rings. Lbj so far has played with 12 hall of famers (some are still playing), and has won 4 rings. Kobe played with 5 hall of famers and won 5 rings. Case closed.

Lol also please note that Jordan played with Dennis Rodman at the tail end of his career when he was scoring 5 points per game. And Kukoc never made a single all star game in his entire career. Also are we counting Karl Malone at 40 for one season as one of Kobe’s 5 lol.

@earningzekrom4173 5 ай бұрын

@@skap_attack This is so illogical it verges on hilarious. Rodman's skills were never in points and he was capable of guarding Shaq as a 6' 9" forward. Kukoc was the Sixth Man of the Year in a stacked East. Pippen is a top 25 player and his injuries were so deleterious to the team that *MJ* of all players lost a game 7 simply by virtue of his not being able to play. Which teammate of LeBron's has ever been as dominant as a prime Shaq? You're just haters. You don't care about the sport or the story or the actual statistics. MJ's legacy is most at risk from the likes of you.

Jordan never had to carry team meanwhile Jordan never had a teammate that could avg more then 23ppg. How many guys did LeBron play with? LeBron had three teammates drop 30+ points in the finals. Pippen scored 30+ points once. You can argue that two of LeBron's teammates deserve the finals mvp. Anthony Davis SHOULD have won finals mvp over LeBron. Avg more blocks, steals, offensive rebounds, less turnovers and completely shut down the paint while avg 25ppg. That series should have been a sweep, but wasn't because LeBron played zero defense on Butler

Lebron brought all of this down on himself. He entered the league with years of people pumping up his ego already. He feels entitled to...well...everything, AND he has made sure that everyone KNOWS that he is entitled. He looks more and more like a stat guy and not a team guy as time goes on. He has the league in his back pocket and everyone knows it-and he's OK with that. All Time Greats: Don't have to tell you how great they are Don't tell you they are the GOAT Don't have to tell you to respect them Don't team-shop chasing rings DO make the players around them better DO sacrifice for the team DO take the team on their shoulders to win championships when they have to LJ is a good player, but not an All-Time Great.

Not a single one of his 10 finals runs were impressive in the least. He played great teams in the finals, sure. Kobe and Duncan had to play those teams 3 times out of 4 opponents every year to just get into the finals. We should celebrate them.

Add on top of this that Lebron has benefitted probably more than any other play from having the best players he might go against get injured and derail competitive teams. First we had D Rose get injured on the Bulls, who were unquestionably the biggest competition the Heat were going to have for years to come. And were a team that always gave Lebron fits under Thibs. After his first taste of the eastern conference finals in 2011 and losing to the Heat, the Bulls were primed to take over as the best team in the east, just for Rose to get injured and the bulls to fade away. The same thing happened with Paul George and the Pacers, who also became the biggest competitor to the Heat and were on the rise, just for George to break his leg and the Pacer team to disintegrate after that. Then of course we have the Chris Bosh situation, which completely derailed the post Lebron Heat that was becoming competitive again with new players. And subsequently lead to Wade bailing to go join Lebron again. I can't think of another player in history that has ever benefitted from more top level players in his own conference having devastating injuries that derailed top contenders more than Lebron. And as you said, with so few star players in the East to begin with, when you have one of them and they go down, its disproportionally impactful to your team.

All his real completion was slightly older than him while he was blessed with a durable body, played in a weaker conference, played against a generation that looks up to him, created super teams. All that to end up with 4 chips in 20 yrs. We all knew from when he came in the league based on his physique/work ethic that he would have a long career which would equate to him breaking longevity records. If he had broken them in record time it would be more impressive but he broke them only cuz he played for a long time.

@jonnuanez7183 10 ай бұрын

Any chance you can do a video on his size changes and "longevity"? Take a look at him just before he went to Miami. Then look at how big he got when he was there. Then, somehow, he shrunk when he left. And some have said that he just happened to hit the gene pool lottery, which is some explanation of his decades long career. But we all know better...
