      Most superstars are lucky to have 1 all-star teammate, 3-4 good role players and some bums to fill out the rest of the roster for up to 7 years of their career, kind of like MJ. Lebron's had 2 all-star teammates, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to completely fill out rosters from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. After he decided to 1up the rest of the league to be a heavy favorite for years to come with two different teams, Heat and Cavs, KD decided to return the favor to him and 1up Lebron by joining GSW. People just want to see a competitive league instead of naively getting excited over Lebron making so many finals when he's always been heavily favored to except once. I definitely don't hate Lebron but much of his fanbase is embarrassing to be associated with. And I'm more disappointed that we'll never really know just how great Lebron really is. I mean just imagine if he joined 1 all-star and recruited 3-4 good role players along with some bums for just 7 years of his career in the tougher conference, kind of like MJ. How many finals appearances and rings would he have then? Maybe 2-3 finals appearances max? Maybe 1-2 titles max? He might be considered a top 20 great all-time at best. But he's played in the weaker conference with 2 all-stars, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack teams from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. Almost all of Lebron’s accomplishments are due to all the help he’s had and longevity. Even Karl Malone had longevity stats over MJ but he still couldn’t get past him. That’s like giving Shaq 100 free throw opportunities to MJ’s 10 and suddenly saying Shaq is the better free throw shooter. That’s Lebron’s fanbase logic. But guess what? Even with Lebron playing many more seasons than MJ, he’s still not as accomplished in the NBA. So with the many more opportunities Lebron has had to surpass MJ in overall accomplishments, he’s still not done it. And Lebron can’t turn back the clock to be better prime for prime than MJ or several other all-time greats for that matter…
      Lebron fan’s give him full credit for his 4 titles and no blame for the 6 losses. If Ray Allen didn’t hit that shot, Bron is 3-7 right now. If Kyrie didn’t hit a vital clutch 3 in game 7 against GSW, Bron would probably be 2-8 right now. If the low seeded Miami with Butler as the best player, and an injured Dragic as the 2nd best player (Taking Lakers to 6 games lol), didn’t steal the blue print to beat the Bucks, Bron is probably 1-9. If Lebron didn’t play next to the 3rd best shooting guard of all-time, a top 5 power forward at the time, shooter’s and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack the roster from top to bottom, Lebron would probably be 0-10 in the finals. Nah, actually he would’ve only made 3 finals appearances max if he wasn’t favored to every year but once. And he wouldn’t have made that one he wasn’t favored to if he wasn’t playing in the weakest eastern conference of all-time when adding up the win totals for the top 8 seeds. Lebron bandwagon fan’s are the the most easily deceived. MJ is the goat by a long shot…
      MJ had to overcome diversity to win his first championship. The Pistons and Lakers were both favored to meet in the finals when MJ beat both out for his first ring. MJ never lost as a favorite in a single series, including the finals. Lebron has lost a few series’s as the favorite, including his ridiculous meltdown against the Mavericks. MJ lost to a dynasty in the Celtics when he had no help, but he still put up 63 points trying to will his team through them. Lebron lost in the first round with AD playing in 4 of those games along with an entire handpicked roster against the Suns with an old CP3 and Booker…
      MJ had the lowest surrounding scoring cast of teammates among all superstars throughout NBA history to go on and win a title. He holds this feat 5 out of the top 10 spots, including the top 3. He went 6-0 in the finals carrying the heaviest offensive load of all-time and 11-0 in all championship opportunities. Despite Lebron having the most help all-time, he’s 4-6 in the finals and 6-6 in all championship opportunities. If this was boxing, Lebron would be considered a journeyman. Nobody would argue that MJ had a teammate better than Pippen or Rodman. But did you know both of them completely fell off their games once the playoffs began, forcing MJ to carry a much heavier load to win. Rodman wasn’t only the worst offensive player in the NBA, but he wasn’t the elite rebounder in the playoffs that he was in the regular season, making him more of a liability on the floor…

      Not only was Wiggins slightly better than Pippen in stats but he also held his defensive assignment (Tatum) to a lower PER than Pippen held his, just so you can get a little more context of how heavy the load was that MJ carried. No other superstar carried his best 2 teammates to a championship while they played this horribly. MJ carried them to multiple championships…
      There isn’t a criteria given by a reliable source yet that has Lebron higher than 4th greatest of all-time no matter how they’ve attempted to score it. One source admittedly scored finals losses much higher than wins in an attempt to see how high they could get Lebron, and that’s the only reason he got 4th. He’s closer to 7th on the all-time greats, trying to solidify a 4th spot at best. Longevity stats are scored the lowest for good reason. I mean Karl Malone has longevity over MJ but couldn’t beat him. Stockton wins in about every category but nobody would argue that he’s better than Magic. Lebron will be somewhere between 4th and 7th all-time once solid criteria of scoring is released as a method for placement, so marinate on that for a while. Not only that, but just as Bill Russell’s career is downplayed to this day because of all the help he had to succeed, Lebron will go down with the most tainted legacy of all-time, regardless of where he’s put on the all-time greats list…

      Most superstars are lucky to have 1 all-star teammate, 3-4 good role players and some bums to fill out the rest of the roster for up to 7 years of their career, kind of like MJ. Lebron's had 2 all-star teammates, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to completely fill out rosters from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. After he decided to 1up the rest of the league to be a heavy favorite for years to come with two different teams, Heat and Cavs, KD decided to return the favor to him and 1up Lebron by joining GSW. People just want to see a competitive league instead of naively getting excited over Lebron making so many finals when he's always been heavily favored to except once. I definitely don't hate Lebron but much of his fanbase is embarrassing to be associated with. And I'm more disappointed that we'll never really know just how great Lebron really is. I mean just imagine if he joined 1 all-star and recruited 3-4 good role players along with some bums for just 7 years of his career in the tougher conference, kind of like MJ. How many finals appearances and rings would he have then? Maybe 2-3 finals appearances max? Maybe 1-2 titles max? He might be considered a top 20 great all-time at best. But he's played in the weaker conference with 2 all-stars, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack teams from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. Almost all of Lebron’s accomplishments are due to all the help he’s had and longevity. Even Karl Malone had longevity stats over MJ but he still couldn’t get past him. That’s like giving Shaq 100 free throw opportunities to MJ’s 10 and suddenly saying Shaq is the better free throw shooter. That’s Lebron’s fanbase logic. But guess what? Even with Lebron playing many more seasons than MJ, he’s still not as accomplished in the NBA. So with the many more opportunities Lebron has had to surpass MJ in overall accomplishments, he’s still not done it. And Lebron can’t turn back the clock to be better prime for prime than MJ or several other all-time greats for that matter…
      Lebron fan’s give him full credit for his 4 titles and no blame for the 6 losses. If Ray Allen didn’t hit that shot, Bron is 3-7 right now. If Kyrie didn’t hit a vital clutch 3 in game 7 against GSW, Bron would probably be 2-8 right now. If the low seeded Miami with Butler as the best player, and an injured Dragic as the 2nd best player (Taking Lakers to 6 games lol), didn’t steal the blue print to beat the Bucks, Bron is probably 1-9. If Lebron didn’t play next to the 3rd best shooting guard of all-time, a top 5 power forward at the time, shooter’s and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack the roster from top to bottom, Lebron would probably be 0-10 in the finals. Nah, actually he would’ve only made 3 finals appearances max if he wasn’t favored to every year but once. And he wouldn’t have made that one he wasn’t favored to if he wasn’t playing in the weakest eastern conference of all-time when adding up the win totals for the top 8 seeds. Lebron bandwagon fan’s are the the most easily deceived. MJ is the goat by a long shot…
      MJ had to overcome diversity to win his first championship. The Pistons and Lakers were both favored to meet in the finals when MJ beat both out for his first ring. MJ never lost as a favorite in a single series, including the finals. Lebron has lost a few series’s as the favorite, including his ridiculous meltdown against the Mavericks. MJ lost to a dynasty in the Celtics when he had no help, but he still put up 63 points trying to will his team through them. Lebron lost in the first round with AD playing in 4 of those games along with an entire handpicked roster against the Suns with an old CP3 and Booker…
      MJ had the lowest surrounding scoring cast of teammates among all superstars throughout NBA history to go on and win a title. He holds this feat 5 out of the top 10 spots, including the top 3. He went 6-0 in the finals carrying the heaviest offensive load of all-time and 11-0 in all championship opportunities. Despite Lebron having the most help all-time, he’s 4-6 in the finals and 6-6 in all championship opportunities. If this was boxing, Lebron would be considered a journeyman. Nobody would argue that MJ had a teammate better than Pippen or Rodman. But did you know both of them completely fell off their games once the playoffs began, forcing MJ to carry a much heavier load to win. Rodman wasn’t only the worst offensive player in the NBA, but he wasn’t the elite rebounder in the playoffs that he was in the regular season, making him more of a liability on the floor…

      18.3 44.6 29.7 69.2
      REB BLK STL ASST
      8.8 1.5 1.5 2.2
      Not only was Wiggins slightly better than Pippen in stats but he also held his defensive assignment (Tatum) to a lower PER than Pippen held his, just so you can get a little more context of how heavy the load was that MJ carried. No other superstar carried his best 2 teammates to a championship while they played this horribly. MJ carried them to multiple championships…
      There isn’t a criteria given by a reliable source yet that has Lebron higher than 4th greatest of all-time no matter how they’ve attempted to score it. One source admittedly scored finals losses much higher than wins in an attempt to see how high they could get Lebron, and that’s the only reason he got 4th. He’s closer to 7th on the all-time greats, trying to solidify a 4th spot at best. Longevity stats are scored the lowest for good reason. I mean Karl Malone has longevity over MJ but couldn’t beat him. Stockton wins in about every category but nobody would argue that he’s better than Magic. Lebron will be somewhere between 4th and 7th all-time once solid criteria of scoring is released as a method for placement, so marinate on that for a while. Not only that, but just as Bill Russell’s career is downplayed to this day because of all the help he had to succeed, Lebron will go down with the most tainted legacy of all-time, regardless of where he’s put on the all-time greats list…

He is so good not only in scoring but also in all aspects of basketball like Dribbling, Rebounding, Passing, Defense and many more. What I like the most is the way He dunk the ball, It’s so awesome! Sorry for my comment, if you think it’s exaggerated ✌️😅 I’m just so happy watching Michael Jordan Highlights. Thanks for uploading!

    Sono nato negli anni 70 e ho visto Jordan (solo in TV purtroppo) in tutta la sua carriera. Non solo é stato il giocatore di basket più forte e spettacolare di tutti i tempi ma anche l atleta più carismatico e simbolico di ogni era sportiva. Non c'era villaggio al mondo che non conoscesse MJ. Ha trasformato l NBA e il basket mondiale portandoli a un livello e agonismo mai visti prima. Lui era la NBA,lui era il basket, lui é the GOAT.

      I agree Jordan is the GOAT, and people like to say that he didn;t have as much competition as players do now, seriously that is an argument, and I laugh at it. Sure it was different when Jordan played, it was more physical, and sure Jordan got calls in his favor. But look at the players he was facing throughout his career, to name a few, O'neil, Barkley, Magic, Malone-Stockton, Ewing, Bird, Drexler, Isaiah Thomas, Wilkens, etc and yet Jordan is still above all of those names. He played 6 years out of 8 years and every year he played he won a championship. Name another icon that won 6 championships in a row.

      Most superstars are lucky to have 1 all-star teammate, 3-4 good role players and some bums to fill out the rest of the roster for up to 7 years of their career, kind of like MJ. Lebron's had 2 all-star teammates, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to completely fill out rosters from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. After he decided to 1up the rest of the league to be a heavy favorite for years to come with two different teams, Heat and Cavs, KD decided to return the favor to him and 1up Lebron by joining GSW. People just want to see a competitive league instead of naively getting excited over Lebron making so many finals when he's always been heavily favored to except once. I definitely don't hate Lebron but much of his fanbase is embarrassing to be associated with. And I'm more disappointed that we'll never really know just how great Lebron really is. I mean just imagine if he joined 1 all-star and recruited 3-4 good role players along with some bums for just 7 years of his career in the tougher conference, kind of like MJ. How many finals appearances and rings would he have then? Maybe 2-3 finals appearances max? Maybe 1-2 titles max? He might be considered a top 20 great all-time at best. But he's played in the weaker conference with 2 all-stars, shooter's and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack teams from top to bottom for 12 years of his career. Almost all of Lebron’s accomplishments are due to all the help he’s had and longevity. Even Karl Malone had longevity stats over MJ but he still couldn’t get past him. That’s like giving Shaq 100 free throw opportunities to MJ’s 10 and suddenly saying Shaq is the better free throw shooter. That’s Lebron’s fanbase logic. But guess what? Even with Lebron playing many more seasons than MJ, he’s still not as accomplished in the NBA. So with the many more opportunities Lebron has had to surpass MJ in overall accomplishments, he’s still not done it. And Lebron can’t turn back the clock to be better prime for prime than MJ or several other all-time greats for that matter…
      Lebron fan’s give him full credit for his 4 titles and no blame for the 6 losses. If Ray Allen didn’t hit that shot, Bron is 3-7 right now. If Kyrie didn’t hit a vital clutch 3 in game 7 against GSW, Bron would probably be 2-8 right now. If the low seeded Miami with Butler as the best player, and an injured Dragic as the 2nd best player (Taking Lakers to 6 games lol), didn’t steal the blue print to beat the Bucks, Bron is probably 1-9. If Lebron didn’t play next to the 3rd best shooting guard of all-time, a top 5 power forward at the time, shooter’s and vetran minimum notables taking less money to stack the roster from top to bottom, Lebron would probably be 0-10 in the finals. Nah, actually he would’ve only made 3 finals appearances max if he wasn’t favored to every year but once. And he wouldn’t have made that one he wasn’t favored to if he wasn’t playing in the weakest eastern conference of all-time when adding up the win totals for the top 8 seeds. Lebron bandwagon fan’s are the the most easily deceived. MJ is the goat by a long shot…
      MJ had to overcome diversity to win his first championship. The Pistons and Lakers were both favored to meet in the finals when MJ beat both out for his first ring. MJ never lost as a favorite in a single series, including the finals. Lebron has lost a few series’s as the favorite, including his ridiculous meltdown against the Mavericks. MJ lost to a dynasty in the Celtics when he had no help, but he still put up 63 points trying to will his team through them. Lebron lost in the first round with AD playing in 4 of those games along with an entire handpicked roster against the Suns with an old CP3 and Booker…
      MJ had the lowest surrounding scoring cast of teammates among all superstars throughout NBA history to go on and win a title. He holds this feat 5 out of the top 10 spots, including the top 3. He went 6-0 in the finals carrying the heaviest offensive load of all-time and 11-0 in all championship opportunities. Despite Lebron having the most help all-time, he’s 4-6 in the finals and 6-6 in all championship opportunities. If this was boxing, Lebron would be considered a journeyman. Nobody would argue that MJ had a teammate better than Pippen or Rodman. But did you know both of them completely fell off their games once the playoffs began, forcing MJ to carry a much heavier load to win. Rodman wasn’t only the worst offensive player in the NBA, but he wasn’t the elite rebounder in the playoffs that he was in the regular season, making him more of a liability on the floor…
      Dennis Rodman (1998 Playoffs)
      PPG FG% 3P% FT%
      4.9 37.1 25.0 60.5
      REB BLK STL ASST

      Scottie Pippen (1998 Playoffs)
      PPG FG% 3P% FT%
      16.8 41.5 22.8 67.9
      REB BLK STL ASST
      7.1 1.0 2.1 5.2
      The closest stats to Pippen that a player has had in the playoffs/finals, was this year and his name is Andrew Wiggins…
      Andrew Wiggins (2022 Finals)
      PPG FG% 3P% FT%
      18.3 44.6 29.7 69.2
      REB BLK STL ASST
      8.8 1.5 1.5 2.2
      Not only was Wiggins slightly better than Pippen in stats but he also held his defensive assignment (Tatum) to a lower PER than Pippen held his, just so you can get a little more context of how heavy the load was that MJ carried. No other superstar carried his best 2 teammates to a championship while they played this horribly. MJ carried them to multiple championships…
      There isn’t a criteria given by a reliable source yet that has Lebron higher than 4th greatest of all-time no matter how they’ve attempted to score it. One source admittedly scored finals losses much higher than wins in an attempt to see how high they could get Lebron, and that’s the only reason he got 4th. He’s closer to 7th on the all-time greats, trying to solidify a 4th spot at best. Longevity stats are scored the lowest for good reason. I mean Karl Malone has longevity over MJ but couldn’t beat him. Stockton wins in about every category but nobody would argue that he’s better than Magic. Lebron will be somewhere between 4th and 7th all-time once solid criteria of scoring is released as a method for placement, so marinate on that for a while. Not only that, but just as Bill Russell’s career is downplayed to this day because of all the help he had to succeed, Lebron will go down with the most tainted legacy of all-time, regardless of where he’s put on the all-time greats list…

      Like some guys that say he doesn't deserve to be a Hall of Famer, seriously? He already has some records set up and he's still setting some more right now, I think he's really trying to come back to his old days right now, but even if he isn't able to, he's still a great offensive and defensive player, a really dominant player

Pure ethic, skills talent. Kobe, WILT, Russel, Jordan or Kareem, LeBron. And you could probably throw LeBron in that mix for 4 and put Jordan at 5 by well have to see what happens.
      ruclips.net/video/2oZtpSsXSoA/видео.html
      Jordan better driver, layups..transitional offense.a bit faster off the ball pass..was not a better 1on1 player thsb Kobe..was better clutch around the rim but Kobe made classier almost aerobatic finishes around the rim way more than Jordan..dont believe me go look at the impossible 2 man coverage dead heap moves he made around power fowards and center. Can't forget the behind the backboard shot or the one handed ambidextrious left hand shots he took..even threes Jordan never did. A more creative drunker around the glass and rim. He could contort his whole body around big men something Jordan could never do besides the occasional flip up two handed scoop behind the back, dead stop jump foot off the defender. Jordan had the knife dunk and could leap farther. Kobe was a better defensive player 1 on 1, postup blocker, and off the ball rebounder out of transition. Jordan could randomly snatch a rebound or make a like steal in transition because he knew the way the transition and flow was alternating before anyone I'll give him that but as far as post up defense for a traditional shooting guard which is harder to be a better defender by demotion of the ergonomics of the sport itself not even JORDAN could beat Kobe in that category. Nobody ever could off the ball. Jordan was just overall more athletic and a smoother shooter not a better shooter. Kobe better overall and more technical. Jordan most athletic and accurate. DEBATE OVER Kobe was the better playa' and it ain't even close when you think and examine from a contrarian none 90's hype premedia building Jordan era viewpoint. And you have to take Kobes injuries into account something Jordan never dealt with.

The only time ive felt the same overwhelming excitement where i cry in amazement is when i watched my oldest son play college ball & my youngest play football as a QB...now playing for kansas. Diff game but same feelin ..but wouldnt come close if it wasnt my kids. Not saying their not good..cuz obviously their amazing if they still able to play...but that just shows u the intensity that Jordan brought to the overall experience of watching a game. 1st time i got to see him play live was when he came to children's hosp in tn to see the sick kids & my mom was the physician who showed him around..she told him her daughter was obsessed with him...lol..he gave us free tickets & we went to see him in chicago when i was 10yrs old.
