The fact that we’re still putting championship aspirations on a 39 year old in year 21 just further proves his greatness. Nobody else had these expectations this late in their careers.

nahh not moving the goal post like they said his legacy is already cemented. He could retire rn & still hold the same spot in NBA history that he’s at rn nothing would change. He’s 39 bro, i’m not looking at this guy expecting him to carry them to a chip & beat jokic lmao it’ll have to be AD. If he loses people will call the season a failure (which it would be) & move on, but no one who really knows ball is moving the goal post for bron at this point. His legacy is too stamped to do that.

Really? You mean the current nba where they don’t play defense and you are allowed to travel. Did you forget who won the championship last year? If you couldn’t hand check MJ and he could get to the line 20 times a game he would embarrass everyone including Lebron who got embarrassed in the finals by Jason freaking Terry and JJ Barea.

Absolutely disagree that LeBron is "locked in" at number 2. LeBron would still be chasing Kareem's points (not to mention rings and MVPs which he already is) if he hadn't been forced to stay in university for FOUR YEARS (where he was nearly undefeated). By Kareem's last year at UCLA, he was already arguably the best player on the planet, and frankly should've won MVP as a rookie. Kareem probably would've finished his career with 2 extra MVPs, 10,000+ additional points, and an extra chip, and we would all be talking about how he is actually the GOAT

He is the system. Whatever team LeBron goes you are going aleast get to Finals and/or playoffs appearances. Kryie was nothing less than an all star when LeBron came to cavs and so was Kevin Love to a degree. both of them never had playoff run before LeBron better yet a finals appearance. Kryie been to the finals 3 times with LeBron and haven't sniff a Finals since leaving the cavs. Just facts.

... I've had many arguments with Jordashians about this same topic- for them there is a massive difference in being provided "help" organically vs LBJ "hand picking" his teammates- so that negates the fact that LBJ played better competition, he got to choose his support. Obviously, it is a disingenuous starting point. The Celtics are allowed to create a Big 3 to stop young Lebron, but he is supposed to stay in CLE with Larry Hughes & Mo Williams as his 2nd best player for 7 years. I also agree Jordan is a system player- when that system was not in place in 1995 with no defensive big who could rebound (No Grant or No Rodman), MJ took an early exit at the hands of Orlando (despite averaging 32.5/6/6 in the 1st round) which just gets chalked up to MJ "being rusty". But in reality, without just ONE piece like Grant or Rodman, Chicago does not win those titles they did.

Bosh never saw a playoff run. Kryie and Kevin Love never had playoff runs until LeBron, the Lakers wasn't making the playoffs since 2014 since LeBron. AD was first round exit when he was with the new Orleans. Jordan retire that year and the Bulls season was still identical from year they won a championship, and they almost made it to the finals. Jordan was a great player. But needed a system to carry him over. Jordan couldn't lead that wizard team anywhere. Lol because he playing a different system and different coach.

MJ was the best player on a system team! The year he retired, that season record was almost the same without him. He's similar to Tim Duncan and the spurs. The best piece on a great team. Same coach, same scottie, all time rebounder and avg 18pts Horace grant, sharp shooter like Steve Kerr and John Paxson, 3 time defensive player and rebounder, Dennis Rodman, the best European player of that time , Toni Kukoc, all time/triangle offense coach Phil Jackson, etc. He played on a system team. Pretty much same roster and better draft picks and trades.

The key evidence was the shape of the jaw. If it hasn't been scrubbed from the Internet go ahead and take a look.
