      Ikr, LeBron’s arrogance is a towering inferno, relentless and salient, consuming the parched forests of modesty with the fury of his self-praised greatness. Amidst the smoky ruins left in its rampage, the tender buds of humbleness find no oasis. Instead, they wither, succumbing to the choking haze of his inflated self-importance.
      When one utters the term "GOAT", it should be a serenade composed in honor of countless heroes whose sweat, passion, and unyielding spirits have carved an enduring legacy. Yet, LeBron’s solo performance rattles this harmonious symphony, transforming it into a harsh soliloquy, a narcissistic aria bellowed from the summit of his self-built pedestal. His words, dripping with hubris, tarnish the golden canvas of history, casting long shadows over the tales of many greats who have danced the dance of champions.

      ⁠emotional how? Magic and Bird save the NBA, but Jordan put the NBA on the world map. Jordan made money for the NBA domestically and globally. Isaiah Thomas former head of the NBA players union said it best because of Jordan players are still making money even after they have retired. Michael Jordan playing on the dream team opened up global sports markets for the other countries to view American basketball. That’s money for the NBA and tv networks. Because of him it became easier for the NBA to broker deals to get global basketball talent in the US. Without Jordan Nike is not the global business that it became. Without Jordan players don’t get the lucrative contracts like Lebron, Kobe, Durant and Curry get. Michael Jordan was the poster child of endorsements during his playing years. All the money Jordan generated for the NBA his playing contract was peanuts. Hell look at the NBA 75 year list. Who is number one? Jordan! Please tell me other than surpassing the shooting records due to longevity and moving from team to team looking to win championship rings, what has Leflop done for the NBA? I don’t see no two three peats in his career totals. Do you? That’s reality not emotion.

    The only reason MJ was regular season MVP only five times instead of seven times, was because it started to get dreary having MJ get all these awards on his own. 1993 and 1998 Barkley and Malone were awarded season MVP. Michael took it personally and answered with finals MVP and winning the Championship in both cases, while Barkley and Malone were way behind their performances compared to their regular season.

Never gave up, had amazing ball control, and was lethal from mid range with a shot almost impossible to block. Did not matter what was your team this man made you an instant fan.

MJ was a much more polished shooter and 1 on 1 defender, LeBron relies more on driving the basketball, but is above and beyond a better passer than Jordan. Jordan thrived on ISO ball and wanted to beat you by himself. LeBron a pass first player who thrives in orchestrating the offense to make the right and smart play in his mind and get his entire team involved, which sometimes has been his downfall.

    During the period from 1970 to 1986, as the NBA expanded from 8 to 23 teams, no team managed to achieve consecutive championship victories. Winning a championship alone is an arduous task, but defending the title and accomplishing a repeat victory is even more challenging, mainly due to other teams closely studying your strategies to take you down. However, in 1988, the Showtime Lakers broke the pattern and became the first team to successfully repeat as champions since the league's expansion. This feat was followed by the 1990 Bad Boy Pistons, and in 1992, the Bulls also achieved a repeat championship win. The next year, in 1993, they pursued the elusive three-peat and remarkably, led by Michael Jordan, they secured three consecutive championships. Michael Jordan's accomplishments were extraordinary, as both Magic and Isiah could not replicate his success. Even during his initial retirement, many already considered him the Greatest of All Time (GOAT). However, he made a sensational comeback and added three more championship rings to his collection, consecutively! Let's emphasize the difficulty of REPEATING: Michael Jordan not only led his team to a historic three-peat but achieved the legendary and incredibly rare REPEAT THREE-PEAT.
    Such an achievement is unparalleled, and only those with two(2) three(3)-peats should be worthy of wearing the number #23, making Michael Jordan undoubtedly the greatest basketball player ever-THE BEST THERE EVER WAS AND THE BEST THERE EVER WILL BE.
    Edit:
    2 other insane stats of the Jordan-led bulls
    - Bulls never lost 3 in a row in their championship winning seasons
    - Bulls never lost a playoff series to a team that was equally or lower seeded than them. HE ALWAYS WIN WHEN EXPECTED TO WIN, NO UPSETS

    Also, Jordan put a hard pause on the dynasties of his time. When he came into the league the Lakers, Celtics, and later the Pistons were the heavy hitters. Jordan helped end that dominance. The Bulls three-peat then he retires and the Rockets emerge with two straight in his absence. MJ returns and they three-peat again while denying the Jazz from a potential dynasty. He retires again and then we see league dominance from the Spurs and Lakers. You can see how one player’s absence or presence set the course of an entire era.

I remember being so awe struck watching MJ play and wishing I could do the moves and then after the game we'd go outside and spend the next few days trying to replicate his moves while we were wearing Jordans. Such great memories from growing up in the 90s..

People all over the world knew him anyway and stopped what they were doing to catch the game live on tv on the one channel it was on. He was a worldwide household name simply by word of mouth, and was solely based on his talent. There was no social media to focus on his material assets like cars, jewelry, or what outrageous outfit he was wearing to the game. He earned his attention on the court, during the game.

      I think time periods are irrelevant because there are to many intangible factors to consider. Like how the game was played, who was in it at the time, medical advancement and recovery time. The factors can continue forever. Impact and accomplishments are two factors that can span across time. How much did they accomplish and in their respective eras how much impact did they have on the game. This guy highlighted it perfectly. Culturally Michael Jordan is still the Goat and based off of accomplishments he still reigns supreme. Bill Russel argument for accomplishment is strong but his cultural impact will never outshine Jordan.

Because I don't think he would have played that long in the physical era of Jordan, ranking up these cumulative numbers everybody is praising him for. I also think he would have lost the joy playing very quickly, because of the competetiveness back then.

    Michael Jordan was not surrounded by the greatest players but his drive and passion for the game made everyone around him better. Put Lebron w the same players MJ played with (not bouncing from team to team to be around other great players) Lebron would not have been able to lead by example like Jordan. There were other really good players on the Bulls, but Jordan was never in the company of other great players like the teams LeBron decided to play for in free agency.
