He still thinks 4 nba championships are more than 6

They don't claim it as a championship because they have too much pride and history to do it even though it logically makes sense (in the absence of a postseason tournament in college sports, the top team has always been the champion) and even though other schools would have in KU's place.

That's why I (and other KU fans) do it for them.

I mean, I guess that's your prerogative as a fan but that doesn't make it a legitimate championship.

That's like the Eagles fans claiming a title because they don't acknowledge the hold on juju ROFL

Insecure people do things like we see in this thread. Inventing narratives to boost resumes he obviously isn't proud of. Bron being the focal of that insecurity.

Greater, yes. The argument is "GOAT." If you want to have an argument about "BOAT," that would be completely separate.

He’s the GOAT because he played longer? So my ASG appearance due to more years playing trumps league MVP, Finals MVP, championships, and undefeated finals record? Are you trolling right now on purpose or do you honestly believe that?

Are you suggesting that longevity doesn't have any bearing on who the GOAT is in any respective sports? So Mahomes is the GOAT because he had 5 great years then?

Championships are only as legitimate as the fans deem them to be. See the 2017 and 2018 fraudulent KD Warriors titles.

Longevity does play a role in it all things being equal, but they aren’t equal. Jordan has more rings, championship MVPs, and league MVPs. He is 6-0 in the finals to Lebron’s 4-6. You keep using the longevity award because you can’t dispute the facts. Also three of those “years” were because Jordan left college as a Junior while Lebron never played college ball because the NBA allowed HS players to jump to the NBA, which is an option Jordan never had.

Longevity is used as a tiebreaker, not an accomplishment in and of itself.

You want to talk fraudulent titles? Bubble title is a fraudulent as they come.

This is, of course, a lie. There's a distinct difference between GOAT and BOAT. The only claim MJ even realistically has left is to BOAT (but he's not that either).

Emmitt Smith is the GOAT RB!
