Dude makes good points but Jordan will always be the GOAT. If you haven't watched Jordan's career you will never ever understand why people call Jordan GOAT. Jordan dominated the NBA when he played. They changed the rules because of him. People who watch lebron will always feel he's the GOAT and i understand why because that's all they know. Its nothing Lebron has done or continue to do that impresses people who watched Jordan's career for the fact we can actually compare them. We got a chance to watch both of their careers. There is no comparison. They are two different players. Lebron is the best of this generation and he should be. Look at how weak the Nba is now compared to when Jordan played. Its sad. Jordan greatness is on a completely different level. Jordan had no weakness in his game. Its disrespectful to compare anyone to him. Jordan will forever be the True GOAT. Accept it.

Same. He just isn't the same type of player. He is a team first kinda of guy. Jordan is a win first kinda of guy. Lebron tries to elevate bad to average players. Jordan didn't waste his time with that and won 6. Kobe didn't waste his time with that and won 5. Lebron won 4. Maybe if he wins five you could reconsider the arguement but at this point it's guetting too late in his career.

@@razgaros Michael Jordan did make thoae around him better. However, Lebron does not have that winning mentality that Kobe or MJ had. All these flops and walking out of games early are things that keep lebron from reaching MJ. MJ wanted to win at all costs, Lebron gives up when things are bad.

Agree man. Haters are just hatin

It was the right play. It was the highest probability play. Most importantly, it was the sort of play that is the Lebron way. I am glad that he doesn't try to be like Jordan or Kobe. He is LeBron and the choices that he makes on court are the reason why he is so special.

There’s no hate. The Lebron system is great. But Magic was a tad better at running it. 5 out of 11 years is better. They both need killers to the left and right. It’s a good enough system. But there’s another system proven in Chicago and LA but that takes a different type of cat.

@@StraightLEFTfromPAC But that's a reasonless argument here. The original point was that LeBron made the absolute right play. Any pass to Kerr or Grant by MJ, if missed, would be a blemish to any commoner idiot fan. Bron made the correct call with more defenders on him than any player ever sees, and that's a fact.

@@Banned4Life Never said it was the wrong play. His success rate doing this is ok. But don’t say he’s a killer, ‘consistently’ takes over games when it’s close, never shrinks under big lights, on the line. Don’t say that tho. He’s really good, with a really good system. That’s it.

He is number 1 if you disregard your childhood heroic moments, and the brand Jordan. From a basketball player stand point that plays all 5 positions, yes LeBron is more versatile and skilled overall than Jordan.

U talking about physical power with IQ of Lebron. We talking of Heart, Mindset and SKILLSET when talking of MJ and Kobe!

If you also look at the positions he plays...he can play PG, SF, PF, SG and this season for the first time he played C. He is a multi skilled player who can switch when it is necessary unlike Kobe or MJ who played shooting guard and defense for most of their careers. Meanwhile, Lebron also plays defense. You can't be the greatest civil engineer for doing bridges only while another civil engineer has done bridges, water structures, hotels etc...if that makes sense Gilbert made a good point about scoring. Lebron could score 60 and still lose a game. That's why lakers stopped making playoffs even though Kobe was scoring many points until his retirement. It takes a TEAM effort because it's 5 players.

These takes are stupid all im going to say lebron is a second but not close to jordan im not javing a whole day conversation just read this if you see and to answer back ok because i have days and days of arguments all im saying

Jordan came at the perfect time era wise to get a ton of worldwide exposure like no superstar had before in the NBA and also benefitted from an incredible marketing campaign from Nike, again the first of its kind. If LeBron had played in that era and been in MJ’s shoes, I think he would’ve been similarly popular. I know what you mean though, I think Jordan is still the most well known player internationally, but it’s because of his play. A legendary mythical figure outside of their sport to me is someone like Ali or something and Jordan as a figure outside of basketball wasn’t quite as transcendent as that IMO 🤔

Facts

He’s amazing but I got Jordan #1

We look at a GOAT by how good they were in their prime, almost prime position, offence/defence and scoring. Longevity and injury does not affect GOAT status, especially since leBron is spending millions on health and longevity meanwhile MJ was stuck in a time of cigars and drugs, he’d even smoke a cigar before every game. MJ only needed one play style, and that style got him GOAT status, and “humble student”? What has this got to do with how good a player is, MJ was cocky and had a big ego because he was insanely good. LeBrons efforts outside the court have nothing to do with his skill. MJ is the GOAT and undeniably better at basketball.

Sorry forgot to mention as well, I don’t think you’ve seen enough of MJ playing because something both Lebron people and MJ people agree upon is that MJ is more athletic, it’s just fact. Not many people come close to Jordan’s athleticism.

@@l1ll4rd48 You clearly have a lot to learn about basketball and are undeniably influenced by mainstream sports channels. You speak of “we” as if you’re the entire world. You’re not. You’re just one man/woman. That being said, there’s obviously more to basketball than scoring. MJ was elite at scoring, there’s no denying that. But if you’ve ever played the game, then you remember the most joyous thing to play next to is an elite scorer and especially an elite passer. Conversely, if you play next to somebody who doesn’t pass (and there were countless moments where MJ refused to pass, I’ve seen the good, bad and ugly passing games of MJ), you’d tell him to stop hogging the ball! Prime is nothing, absolutely nothing compared to longevity. If a GM wants to build his team, why would he care about about a player’s prime or peak? He wants sustained excellence. If a company has a choice between hiring somebody with a prime or somebody who can give you years and years of excellent work and most of all availability, you’d know who’d they choose. Be honest with yourself. About the health thing, it’s astonishing to see how in-objective you are when you praise MJ’s habits of cigars and drugs and indict LeBron for taking care of his body, you know, the number one thing teammates/players/coaches ask you to do as part of your job. Being humble has got EVERYTHING to do in being good in LIFE let alone basketball. Having ego in any situation, especially in basketball is never appreciated. When it comes to skill, sure MJ has a better offensive package. Beautiful highlights. But that’s where it stops. Passing, chase-down blocks, defending all 5 positions (you’ve seen LeBron front the post and neutralize bigs in their prime), communicating, getting teammates involved. All skills LeBron possessed that are way superior than MJ’s footwork. There’s so much to teach you, but I’ll leave it with these couple of jewels. Look, it’s been a nice run for MJ, and he was phenomenal, but people are slowly waking up to the obvious fact that the bigger, faster, stronger, healthier, more unselfish and smarter LeBron James is the greatest basketball player of all time 👑

My biggest thing about Arenas and all these lebron the goat fans fail to realize conference play. Its like Bron gets participation points as the goat for just making the finals. If everyone just took 5 to 10 mins to do some research of nba basketball after Jordan left Chicago the west actually won all but 5 of the first 20 nba finals, so what exactly does that say about the eastern conference. In fact it was so lopsided that in my eyes the final was between the lakers and spurs, lakers, dallas or GSW from 2000 to 2019 for the most part. We all expected that Cleveland team to be there in the end and to get smashed by one of those four teams. Also the proof in my argument is exactly why the allstar game format change when the west had 8 of the top 10 players in the league or so most seasons. The commissioner got tired of west winning the game 164 to 125 or so. Also the reason why they considered changing the nba playoffs format a few years ago because it wasn't fair for the #8 seed in the east to be 30 and 52 meanwhile #8 in the west was 44 and 28 or so. My point is lebron and those Cleveland teams wouldn't sniffed the finals in the west until he had Kyrie and Love and that possibly would've only happened one season or so

@@jamessims9298 okay but lebron don’t get discredit for making it to 8 straight finals. no matter how you want to look at it that is impressive. Also content matters. In the early 2000s lakers and spurs were the two super teams in that era. Then there were finals where the eastern teams were as good as the western teams. Packers vs lakers, spurs vs pistons, lakers vs Celtics, mavericks vs heat, warriors vs cavs first time were all Evenly matched teams. And you contradicted yourself by saying we all knew cavs will be in the finals yet saying it was spurs or lakers in the west in the finals. Both conference was dominated by a dynastic team. When warriors was winning it was always gonna be them in the finals. From 2000-2010 it was lakers or spurs coming out the west, from 2011-2013 was the only year the west was open.

There is only one season the Cavs would not6 have made the Playoffs if that was the case and that was in 2008 when they were 45-37 which isn't bad and the West's 8th seed was 50-32. Just admit you're a hater because that's so sad that you would even put that out there to make what he's done less impressive.

@@LeChina what gave u the audacity to comment if we all liked the same thing we would all chase the same girl enjoy your day brother

@@LeChina Don't talk about other people OPINIONS.

@@LeChina Yeah, huge respect to Kobe but he's just not on Jordan's level.

@@drewfilson6795 Jordan’s era was weak..easy era to go iso one on one...compared to Kobe’s 2000-2010 era run 😂

Most deft I never thought of that, the way he explained it

Nope mj was underrated by arenas

@@shawn17g Dawg it was fair. If he talked about MJ how he talked about Bron there would be no “he underrated Bron”

@@MrAlvarez23 6 finals and 6 rings on the same team and 6 times defensive player I thinks that's consider an goat 🐐. Never lost in the finals . So stop it

@@anthonyhogan5878 in 90s weak era and no zone defwnse 1 v 1 against 6 feet plumbers and thats your goat? Lol

Intelligent compared to a pile of 💩👍🏿

@@jessepetite2468 compapre to you keyboard warrior. You're nothing compared to Arenas

@@jessepetite2468 that’s your opinion but Arenas gave solid and objective points here with no bias. not some ESPN opinionated responses. my heart will say MJ but that’s my heart and there’s obvious bis, Arenas is using his brain here which is impressive considering he grew up with Jordan and it’s easy to be blinded by nostalgia but props to him for putting his biases aside and actually making an objective analysis. he actually got me thinkin twice here

@@ethantampus6021 different people have different perspective about the greatness. MJ has the most impact on basketball culture. Almost Everybody knows MJ. He is more popular than anyone in the world. Greatness is not just about being good at sport but what impact does the person bring to the sport and people around the world. Looking back all these great people in history. Every one of them impacted our society or culture in different way. That’s called greatness. The goat. LBJ might be the goat in next 20 years when next generation know only about lbj and he would be bringing more influence to the generation but until then , no lbj is nowhere near MJ.

Lebron os trash he lost 6 finals

@@geraldwilson1705 yeah because we all know its better to lose in the earlier rounds

@@geraldwilson1705 like championships aren’t team accomplishments. Bunch of idiots on here

@@johnnycoop8694 Making it 10x is also a team accomplishment 🤦‍♂️

@@killmeinorder who said it wasn’t?

He coaches highschool level right now I think. With his son

Naw not hs.. his kid only 10.. but he is coaching an Aau team

@@BRAWLIC215 No guns allowed on school property

He says om his youtube show he will coach. He is just not sure which level(highschool, college, nba) suits him the most at the moment.

There’s nothing about this video that shows that he could be an nba coach.

Thats not saying much since nobody puts the Wizards on the all time great defensive teams list

@@MrMilez-ic1vlthen it doesn’t mean much when Jordan was dropping 35PPG on farmer teams

And there's more than that why Jordan is the GOAT!

@@bryrashad Winning mentality, never quitting and the list goes on and on

@@akshayrao4473 "Winning Mentality" is very subjective, we can't simply know what burns inside the heart of the person.

He still in shape, he probably could come back and actually do that

@@jwwashere888 Lmao, calm down
