Also Jordan damn well might have gotten a 7th ring in 95, but the Bulls brilliant strategy against Orlando was "just leave Horace open - he can't beat us" and then proceeded to watch Horace Grant bury jumpers in their pimply asses for 6 games.

There’s a reason he’s shattered (or is on the way to shattering) nearly every counting stat in the book and it’s not because he “gets injured all the time.”

Lame James has played 1 82 game season his entire career.

Irresponsible MFer put the whole team at risk. He should have isolated in his home for two weeks. After that, he should only have been allowed around the team if he wore double masks and maintained a 6 foot distance.

MJ played 82 games in 10 out of his 14 full seasons in the NBA (not counting 94, the ‘comeback’ year) including 82 in his final season of his career in 2002 as a shell of his former self with the Washington Wizards. Thats’s right. Old man, out of his prime Jordan, managed 82 games in his final season.

Durability matters.

Yet another reason MJ is so respected and revered.

We’ve never seen a player as durable as LeBron James. The man has played 1,301 of a possible 1,404 regular season games across his career.

Those would be impressive stats even without taking into account the unbelievable strain put on LeBron’s body across 18 seasons of carrying his various teams offensively, defensively and emotionally.

And that’s to say nothing of his 38.3 minute career average, his 260 playoff games (without ever missing one), and all the drastically shortened offseasons that came with playing in 10 Finals, three Olympics and one World Cup.

Other than a groin injury which caused him to miss 17 games in 2018-19, James has never suffered a significant injury. And to top it off, he has retained an incredible amount of his athletic ability for someone who is 36 years old.

His 49,796 career minutes rank him seventh all-time and he’s just 316 minutes away from jumping into fifth place. Then he will be behind only Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Karl Malone and Kareem Adbdul Jabbar.

I would probably stop posting in threads that you don’t have a clue about.

It’s not as difficult as you’d think to ignore a bunch of posts from clueless individuals living 30 years in the past who clearly haven’t watched a game this century, no. When those who try to diminish LeBron in threads like this make lazy, baseless takes like he was injury-prone or soft, it kind of says everything about how seriously anybody should take their takes on anything basketball related.

It is about the ten year anniversary of the shut down by JJ Barrea game for LeBron.

Nice to see KCC can’t resist turning yet another thread into a MJ-Bron pissing match.

And he goes to his favorite Twitter troll to make his argument.


Nice to see some things never change around here . . . . . . .

Career losses in 4th quarters/OTs of closing games of NBA Finals.

Lebron - 6

Jordan - ZERO


Make of that what you will.

staylor26 06-11-2021 11:00 PM

Remember Lebron in the 4th quarter against the Mavs in 2011?

That’s a team accomplishment.

But Lebron winning in 2016, with Kyrie playing at a Finals MVP level himself too (along with making the big shot to win it all), makes him the GOAT. Because the Warriors were basically unbeatable, even though they shouldn’t have even beat the Thunder and were on the ropes down 3-1 the series before.

This is KCC logic.
