you seen the Germany game ticket? Another CLUTCH performance by LeCaptainAmerica
This ship sailed years ago, theres literally nothing LeBron can do at this point to surpass Jordan. Jordan is the goat period.
As lebron fan this ain't about mj
It’s not but Washington wizards Jordan would not do this
@@Thrashippie Because I'm not sure he could, to be honest, with those knees. And I'm a MJ fan.
@@Thrashippiecan’t really make that argument if Lebron never left the game for years , smoked cigars , drunk hard liquor, and came back to play in his 40’s. The arguments yall use is weak af 😆.

Michael Jordan will always be The Goat 🐐
Opinions are like assholes everybody's got one
Always? Nothing stays forever Bro
@@slicfangas3283very true. But the "opinions" about lebron being the goat or anywhere near it are all wrong.
Mj the goat s fine but all must bow to king james.
@michaelperez3720 want credentials do you have to make that assumption I was a kid in DrJs Era grew up in Jordan's Era came of age in Kobes and grew old in Lebrons how far back have you been paying attention
Man I like lebron but if he ain’t pass Mj yet he ain’t ever gonna pass him 😂😂😂
Been passed MJ Basketball and Role Model wise

You crazy stop it.

A gold medal won't change the fact that he still has 2 bronzes.
he actually got 2 gold medals & 1 bronze

@@maxb4416 thought we was talking about the olympics
@emmanuelaltieri he got 2. He still got bronze and jordan got zero.
1 in the Olympics 1 in FIBA WC so technically he has two, which makes him twice as bad as MJ. 😂
Perk wants to unblocked so bad.
Respect Bron man. Nothing wrong being number 2. MJ is GOAT.
He’s not even number 2 nor top 5. Frauds can’t be top 5
@@rayleigh8how is he a fraud?😂
Loool lebron wayyyyy better
@@rayleigh8ok
Cry about it lil bro Bron passed MJ a while ago
He's not and he won't be. Give it a rest.
He is and will be . So no
Dawg, this is what’s so off putting about the LeBron GOAT argument, why do LeBron Pundits, fans, etc always have to dim the light of others in order for their man to shine. If he was really the greatest it would be definitive, but the fact that folks have to do all this to state his claim makes the argument invalid imo.
I think it’s the other way around…they’re are legit HATE channels towards Legoat.
@@user-ez7sd7jb5pwhere at
But Kobe, MJ, and everyone else calls themselves the greatest and the best on their teams while shunning teammates, it’s “killer instinct” and “mamba mentality” but when LBJ does it’s “off putting”. You don’t sound smart lmao.
“Invalid” argument, he clearly has a legit argument.
And there’s no proof or evidence or even narratives that say LeBron is paying people to say this. You just say it for likes.
Perk is originally from Sudan
Now it's a gold medal? I thought Perk said Bron passed that ghost in Chicago after he was named MVP of In-Season Tournament?
He will never be able to be like MJ
Guy’s a clown 🤡 😂
How many in season tournaments did jordan win?
Bron will never be greater than MJ. Media knows it. It’s a ratings game for views.
IF BRON WAS THE CLEAR CUT GOAT WHY THE NEED TO KEEP MENTIONING MJ ? THIS ABOUT TEAM USA 🇺🇸 YALL KEEP MJ NAME ALIVE WHICH SAYS ALOT BOUT WHO HE IS AND WAT HE DID MJ SILENT💯
You can’t get SKUNK twice in the Finals and be on the same level as MJ
You can't quit the NBA 3 times and and be called the goat either 👍🏼
Losing record in the playoffs. 😆
San Antonio is that niqqas daddy
God himself not beating them GS teams with Kd on them
@@Lifeisfakedreamsarereal-wb3lmHouston with Cp3 & Harden almost did. They took them to 7 games & was a hamstring injury away from winning.
@@Jfresh2393MJ was already regarded as the GOAT when he retired in 93. Nice try tho.
LeQueen fanboys yall done since 4-0 and 4-1 back to back vs Nuggets, yall delusional 🎉
Bron gonna need the Deloreon, Marty & Doc for that assignment
the fact he got a bronze medal in Basketball is a huge negative for goat convo.
He was 19 give him a pass lmao
If he gets another.....
Bronze in 2004 AND 2006!!! 🥴
this is disingenuous he, wade, and melo rarely saw the court in the 2004 olympics. They were just finishing their rookie seasons. Tim Duncan, Ai and Marbury were the headliners of that team.
@@jarretsinclair221 Wade saw ALOT of on court time with A.I. in the backcourt. He got the most steals if I remember correctly.
Now we giving Lebron credit for beating a team in South Sudan😂😂😂😂 man stop it
Yall going off a name did you not see how south sudan was balling ?
So do you know anything about them maybe they are good.
Did mj play a team of 15 bol bols? No
@@Estamos8n😂😂😂 what is this mycareer? Yall funny.
@@Estamos8nno indoor courts 😂
Perk should be forced to watch the “Space Jam” remake during the entire Olympics. Then revisit the pointless GOAT topic.
Pointless is funny. Lebron is carrying this team in the last quarter at nearly 40. MJ was scoring points on shooting mid range at this age not doing alley oops and leading a team of superstars
I'm sure space jam 2 sucks (I didnt waste my time) but the original is trash.
@georgelafflin3847 yes and that's why they're barely winning, MJ led teams that beat opponents by nearly 40 ppg....
@@An0n_ym0u540yrs ago😅😅 no longer revelent. Dude.

Aura got nun to do with who play better
Facts
Sounds like you really love MJ 😂
@@teddyhart2913 MJ. every time
Born gonna get his respect when he retires lol yall gonna miss him when he’s gone. Yall just plain ole hating now
If Kobe wouldn’t have saved the redeem team he wouldn’t have got that gold
Factz
Exactly
Lebron led that team too..
Did you actually watch those Olympics or you just follow internet narratives? Kobe played a key role in… but D Wade was the leading scorer of that team, Bosh led in rebounds, and Chris Paul in assists…. They definitely would have won without Kobe. Kobe was the leader but he really wasn’t killing to the point where they leaned on him.
@@4olojonesidk. Their mentality wouldn’t have been the same without Kobe
He got two bronze medals tho
he has one when he was 19 and played 11 minutes come factual
04 and 06. = Bronze 🥉
2006: Team USA wins bronze
Here's the roster, again descending by age: Antawn Jamison, Brad Miller, Shane Battier, Elton Brand, Joe Johnson, Kirk Hinrich, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, Chris Paul, Dwight Howard.
Lebronze aiming for his 3rd
@@RasaanRphpyes i remember that greece game wuite well they got smoked by diamantidis a young spanoulis and papaloukas. Greek babyshaq comin off the bench gettin every rebound
ARE WE REALLY GONNA ACT LIKE CARMELO ANTHONY WASN’T THE FIRST TO GET 3 GOLD MEDALS??
Bron got outplayed by kobe and has less rings. He not even close to Jordan
San Antonio is LeBrons daddy

One guy is Top 1 in points and top 4 in assist and one is Top 1 in all time misses. 😂🤣 Kobe good but he nowhere near lebron james my guy. You talking some 🤡💩
@@oni_vergil7342 Nobody with 6 Finals losses is better than Kobe Bryant. Idc what regular season stats he got.
How they ain’t bleep AD when he said🥷🏾??🤔
This MJ and Lebron debate will never end lol personally I always wanted to be like Mike
So did a few hall-of-famers (Kobe, Iverson and Wade).
Facts I wanna be like Mike
😂😂😂 mannn stop it 21 years 4 rings what are we talking about MJ all day 😂😂😂😂😂
Every year since 2016 ESPN/Fox/ Social says this is where Lebron takes the crown. Its 2024 and its the same convo.
Oh, so you noticed that too? 😂😂😂😂
And how many Titles has Lebron won since? One disney world trip..
🤣🤣🤣 last time I checked he still has lost more finals than he won. GTFOH
Last time i checked this isnt boxing or tennis and you definitely dont get to the NBA finals by simply filling out a Finals application.
@@billycarter1798facts. But when your having a goat conversation. That question does co me into play. 💯
he ain`t got enough gas in the tank 2 catch him - father time is undefeated. (and when did lebron pass kareem?)
Nah Perk we dont need to count Gold medals toward the Goat debate my man
1 gold medal more than MJ don't make him the greatest when he still at 4 championships.
@@cedriclloyd5571I don’t just look at Championships, I look at your overall ability to play the game, to be able to be in the nba you have to be able to do one of the major components of basketball
Score, Rebound, Pass or Defend, most all time greats are either great at 1 or 2 of those Lebron is great at all of em which is why he’s my GOAT.
@@cedriclloyd5571but if MJ had 6 chips and bron only had 2 then yea but 4 to 6 really is not that big of a deal especially when Bron gaps MJ in many other aspects of the game
@LebronJamesDake MJ has never had a game 7 in the Finals and undefeated when he gets there. Two 3peats at that in the era where it was much tougher. Lebron LOSES too much to be a GOAT. Lebron has been go like 11 Finals. He's had plenty of opportunities to put this GOAT convo to bed by winning 7
But overall, there is no right or wrong answer. Its all opinion based. Because the real GOAT should actually be Wilt Chamberlain
Y’all gotta give it a rest. This debate has been played out for over 5 years. Seems like the media only ones still debating the goat
Nobody thinks a 3rd gold medal is going to push LeBron ahead of MJ.
Imagine “a game-winner against South Sudan” as part of the conversation?? 😂
Please no. The ship has sailed and I am a Bron fan for the time he has been playing but he is not surpassing Jordan in nothing. Just give this brother his flowers and stop comparing.
You are a clown. Jordan is a fraud that had fake stats and manufactured rings in a weak era. LeBron is the GOAT, and he always will be 👑🐐
Cleared Jordan years ago, this is just the bonus package
Exactly
@seeb51l49 😂😂😂😂
Bron passed Jordan years ago. He holds pretty much every record, playing at a higher level much longer and he's just a better player. He's the goat
The desperation of LeBron, ESPN, Klutch and anyone who tries to get in their good graces is comical. He can "come for MJ" all he wants; he'll never make it to the destination.
Right cuz they’ll never be anyone better than Jordan ????
How do yall hate him for what other people are saying yall lebron haters are weird.
@@snupedummyEventually, there will be - but it’s gonna take much more than what Lebron’s done in his career. The next goat is gonna have to win at least a 3-peat, win at least 6 chips, win at least 5 mvps, be the unquestioned best 2-way player for 10+ seasons, not score 8 points in a Finals game, lead the league to higher tv ratings, and be one of the most famous people in the world.
The level of 3pt shooting from teams around the world has definitely caught on too...My biggest take away from the exhibition games is that this might be the end of Team USA dominance at the olympics, the next generation of players play the current format of basketball very well
Man this guy (Lebum) needs to get over it frfr
I agree
Over? what! hes just doing what he loves, just watch wnba for your next female Jordan yaw make no sense.
@@drk.i.a.2969 The man so selfish that the lakers are screwed when he retires. He will never be the greatest that title is held by MJ and a very close second is Kobe.
Stop it Perk!!! It took Lebron over 400 games to finally have ONE more 30 point game than MJ. Lebron is going to play until he's 50 to keep padding stats. Lol 😅🤣😂
This topic is gonna start a war in the comment section 😂… I wish y’all could appreciate all NBA legends… without allowing sports media to bait & trigger y’all into a frenzy… but I already know y’all are about to spazz out lol
Its a Mt Rushmore for me and currently LeBron has earned a spot on it but def not the goat
I’m absolutely surprise South Sudan missed that last shot. I thought it was over
ITS OVER... Stop comparing the two, LeBron will NEVER fill M.J. shoes
He has literally played 6 more seasons than mj and still chasing him this is no longer a debate!!!😂💯
@@LesChrys90 FACTS !!!
😂😂Perk steady simpin for Bron
he’s tryna get coo w bron again after he unfollowed him😂
Just like every oldhead in the world glaze and simp for for Jordan 😂😂😂
@@user-xb4fm5rx8h or if you actually watched them all play then you would know, but all you have is Last Dance as your history book
What is this man on ( 💊)? By Lebron age, Mj had the medals, almost twice as many rings, retired twice and played baseball inbetween and then came back. What are we talking about? Lebron is so far from MJs accolades its not even a convo. Tell these dudes stop saying what the Sports Media HANDLERS tell them to say and be honest. Please. Its crazy
Man park you were starting to earn my respect as a basketball analyst but the LeBron and MJ thing has been over for a long time brother doesn’t matter how many gold medals he gets..
It's official. Perk has lost his mind.
This team is better than 1992? No way!!
They are better, and easily. 1992 their comp just learned how to play basketball back then 😂
@@marcusg1021 hahahaha, just learned..
lmao Perk lesucking up to LeWhine again 🤣🤣🤣
MJ ain’t lose in the Olympics. Let Lebron be Lebron.
Bron barely got PT in that Olympics, and he was only 19. Jordan was 30 😂😂😂
@@user-xb4fm5rx8h You right I agree. However can you also agree it still counts? 😏
He can break every record in the book, and still not be as good as Black Jesus.
funny how this comparison is an issue for some...even in July....6 Finals, 6 titles, 6 Finals MVP's is something that will stand for years to come.....sorry, Perk!
And so will 4 championships 4 finals MVPs and 4 league MVPs will also stand to for years to come
And so will 4 championships 4 finals MVPs and 4 league MVPs will also live on for years to come
@@gmp-t4v why post your comment twice? I understood your point of view the first time, dude!!!
The only flag is the white one against Dallas, no one is touching MJ
So why do you watch now? Just curious😅😅.
Bron gone be 50 still averaging 25
Facts
Still chasing Jordan still getting investigated for peds at age 50 and using just for men jet black
Yes, and still have 3+1 Titles..
And still have 4 chips. The NBA is weak. now.
Ppl intentionally not to mention the opponents MJ played against, in that era Danny Ainge, Dennis Johnson, Jeff Hornacek, Mark Price…were stars.
Players were averagely more skinny, smaller, slower, only a few can jump high or shoot 3’s, no big man can dribble, no eurosteps, no shammgod. They played brute, but no skills. Hand check yes, but no zone defense, to which Kobe said “I don’t care if yo hand check with 3 hands” “the zone I think cripples some of the top scorers”
When prime MJ left the bulls in 93’ the went from 57 wins to 55, when prime LeBron left cavaliers in 10’ they went 62 wins to 19.
MJ fans always made up BS, for example "his vertical jump is 48 inches" and "his body fat ratio is 3%" If those were true, LeBron & Carter would have a 50 inch vertical jump and Helmut Strebl would have -3% body fat ratio.
He still needs another 2 rings and 4 finals mvps.
bro... Perk is always making the dumbest argument... what a weirdo..
Real GOATs don't need a bunch of dimwit pundits constantly trying to make their cases. If they're a real GOAT everybody knows it.
is that the lowest standards lebron has come to Olympic medals and IST trophies 😂😂😂
This got nothing to do with MJ. LeCaptain America is USA's best player at almost 40 and hopefully he'll lead us to the gold
Just don’t move the field goal post if they don’t win, don’t blame nobody else and don’t use he 40 if he don’t win .
@@playamadetx5279facts
Letrash !
He's not our best player
Perk is on another smoking level..... lolzzzzzzzz
lol some want Bron to be better than Jordan so bad…just let Bron be Bron.
lol nobody pledging a indoor court for South Sudan?
Perk got Bron meat in his hands 👌🏿 again
And in his mouth
Perk tryna get Bron to refollow him on the gram
Stop it lebron will never be the goat
My country South Sudan 🇸🇸 is only 13 years old we don’t have any indoor basketball courts
Can we stop with this debate, LeBron passed MJ years ago
It’s an instant click bait title next it’s gonna be Wemby vs wilt or sum shyt
Not true in your mind maybe
Ship sailed when he lost to the mavs as the favorites and only avg 17 points in the finals as the best player in the nba
@@barkleysmall2363ship sailed way earlier in 2009 and 2010 when he couldn’t even make it to the Finals after winning both RS with 66 and 61 wins…
How she not gonna mention pushing AD in the back on a lob dunk 3 plays before?
Lebron is cooked, he’ll never be the goat. MJ is and always will be the real goat.
Talk about click bait they winning games by like 3 points😅😊😅
When ESPN is having a slow week their go-to is always GOAT talk. Perk used to be the only pundit who refrained from the typical talking points, but I guess he's gotten sucked in too.
Give me Break with this MJ Lebron Comparison. You Can’t. MJ played Hardball. Lebron plays Softball. Two different Era’s. No Touch Ball!
The ‘90s was the weakest era in NBA history next to the ‘60s.
So a gold medal is bigger than an NBA CHAMPIONSHIP? 😂
Lol
Team USA suck. They struggle againts teams with Role players and G-League talent. Meanwhile they have a team full of All Stars😮
Klutch got to Perk just like they got to Jaylen Brown.
He wants that follow back 😂
Could of been a foul, but nobody in world wants SOUTH Sadan beating Team US before olympics Including France or Canada. Would ruin suspence in OLYMPICS.
He doesn’t need to reach Mj. Instead of trying to compare him to Black Cat, respect him as The King. Appreciate him and this nickname before he retires.
The king 😂
Wish ya took the Olympics this serious when Melo was leading team USA to an Olympic gold
How when it’s literally a team full of superstars this ain’t got nothing to do with mj at all
“Most of those guys are older…”
You. You are those guys. You look the oldest on the court. 😂
LeBron James is a monster ! Dude is carrying !
Lebron at 80 years old carrying team USA he’s the goat 🐐🐐
At basketball? Lebron would like to be better than Jordan??? 😂😂😂😂😂
Bronze Medal:
Lefraud - 2
MJ - 0
Lefraud is the GOAT 😂😂
If the USA wins KD will have the must gold medals, does that make him greater than MJ and lebum James??
And KD is the all team points leader in USA Men's basketball for the Olympics as well.
A gold medal where Team USA is heavily favored and vey much expected to win will break the tie with MJ??? What you smokin' Perk???
Really Perk, really? Come on man. KD has 3 gold medals...So, is he the GOAT? No one is thinking about MJ 2 Gold medals in the Olympics.
ARE WE REALLY GONNA ACT LIKE CARMELO ANTHONY WASN’T THE FIRST TO GET 3 GOLD MEDALS??
Can we please stop talking about James. He is not that good just a great hype man.
He is already the GOAT and you Mr Perkins use think the same way until a couple of weeks when got convinced otherwise by Stephen A and Michael wilbon.
If I was Lebron I would be insulted by Perk saying this. Insinuating that Lebron is still trying to catch MJ at 39 is crazy. Basically he's just saying Lebron still ain't the goat. 🤣
Perk is saying the quiet part out loud. That's their goal! Why else would they force this narrative in the Olympics lmao
His clutch was strikes again
Joel Embiid moves up and down the court like an old german shepherd
Wheels for that bus fell off long ago. He cannot do anything at this stage to get an edge.
Lebron already the goat.
No it doesn’t, who counts Olympics in those debates?
