I disagree with the premise, but all right, so how many titles does LeBron have to win then to be the GOAT?

So two more than MJ? Odd, but OK.
What if he keeps playing until he's like 40 as a #2 or #3 guy on a championship team (which he would totally be capable of)? Do those titles count or will they be considered less than genuine? |

I'm enjoying the game and have been a regular in the thread. You're just here to bitch about stupid shit and annoy people.

I actually think the Rockets would've given the Bulls a very tough challenge had MJ not retired. They could've pushed them to 7 games at least. People forget those Bulls teams hardly ever got pushed to game 7.

I've acknowledged that he has matured into an outstanding player and easily the best player of our generation. I think he was an immature player and an asshole for how he handled The Decision. I don't believe any of that affects his legacy because he doesn't do those things now and think he's matured into the player he should be. What's backhanded about that.

I think you have to play a 3-2 and chase under the screens. Let the ball handler shoot rather than whipping it around for a corner three with a set shooter.

Also, you don't really have to answer that, Dirk. My point is that number of titles are a pretty vague evaluative tool to be a "deciding factor" in something like this. And that it is a moving bar for LeBron (for some, nothing he ever does will be good enough).
