MJ is the MOST COMPLETE player to ever play in the NBA…in 13 full seasons, he racked up 10 scoring titles, 9 All-Defensive First Teams, 6 Finals MVPs, 5 MVPs, Defensive Player of the Year-in the SAME season he won the Scoring Title AND Regular Season MVP to go with his All-Star Game MVP AND 2nd consecutive Slam Dunk Title, led his team to 6 NBA Championships (2 Three-Peats) in 8 years, never lost more than 2 games in a row from Nov. 1990-June 1998, leads the NBA in advanced statistics in multiple categories, multiple clutch shots and game winners against the best defenders and defenses, led the NBA in Steals 3 times, only Guard with 200 steals and 100 blocked shots in the same season and he did it Twice! His playoff scoring average is the highest in NBA history, and finally, MJ was voted #1 for the NBA’s 50th & 75th Anniversary Celebrations by a blue ribbon panel of NBA executives, past and present: coaches, players, writers/reporters/journalists, and WNBA players. Talk about being durable like Superman, MJ never missed more than 4 games in a season, except for the 2 years he was injured. MJ played in ALL 82 games 9 times, including his last year with the Wizards at age 40, and he played at least 80 games 11 times…. These are the facts ….and proves MJ was not from planet Earth.✌️👍🎤👽 If there’s a player that can replicate or do better than what MJ did in his 13 full seasons, better check his DNA…nobody’s passing MJ for the G.O.A.T title anytime soon…sit back and enjoy what we have in the NBA today.🐐🏀
Jordan did break his leg one season and came back in the end of the season to put up crazy numbers on boston in the playoffs think it was his second year.
@@leonardjackson6210 all facts💯 that man made the NBA💯 whites,blacks,Arabs... Every race wanted to be like mike.. And he came to show out every game... No rest or crying about the weak team! He lead the league in scoring for 10 years!!! And 35 in the playoffs... No beating that💯
Hands down, MJ is the GOAT. I have been following the NBA since 1968. I watched the amazing Willis Reed's game live when he came out with the injured knee. I followed MJ at UNC. Then, throughout his entire NBA career. I watched all the great ones in over the last 5 decades. For those who follow the NBA in the 80s and 90s, you witnessed that Jordan was so far superior to the next top ten great players in that era. All his peers said that MJ was so far above their abilities that he was at his own level. He was more talented, competitive, dominating, relentless, fearless, confident, and he destroyed the competition. He changed and impacted the game itself and opened it up globally! He always played offense & defense every minute on the floor. Yes, if he didn't miss the time with the knee injury early in his NBA career, retire in 94' and most of 95'. Then, he continued playing in 99' - 01' along with going directly into the NBA from high school....north of 50,000 points is not even a question. MJ being considered the GOAT is not even a debate!!!!!!
If be willing to give the goat title to someone else... But they'd have to be better than Jordan. And that hasn't happened yet. As he says in this video. LJ has been great longer but not as great.
Saw Mike play from Carolina and on, he was a freak of nature with cat quickness, 48 inch vertical and determination to dominate and I don't think anyone will ever top him. He was a highlight show every night on your local news even in other teams markets of spectacular plays and finishes.
I watch the bulls play when I went to visit my cousin in Chicago. Jordan was on another level and I’ve also seen LeBron play and I’ll be honest. It was a completely different feeling. It was fun. It was great. Cleveland actually won the game however it wasn’t like the Jordan game, because when Jordan would made his game, so exciting is that each dunk was almost had its own identity and he just never knew what the man was going to do LeBron nine times out of 10 does the tomahawk dunk which is the same dunk, he almost always does, but even Jordan’s layups were better than a lot of his dunks. His layup package was ridiculous. Jordan is clearly more energetic he just had Dries you know, and he was fun to watch. The crowd would literally go nuts, myself included.
I was lucky to see MJ in his Prime as a kid and to see LeBron, and I remember my dad once said the difference for him was when LeBron could make a few plays that could make the other teams nervous but Michael could make a dunk off a break that not only could stop a team in its track but deflate the entire opposing stadium. He said I was witnessing the greatest basketball player of all time during the time.
You're right man... This video is a couple of years old... But even if it was updated Jordan would still be ahead in those stats....and he did it 13 years. *I saw the Bulls play Atlanta in Atlanta. The only good thing my ex ever did. Mj dropped 40 and I think Nique' dropped 30..I was about 20 rows back from courtside.. It was beautiful man. He's incredible to see in person. I almost pissed my pants because I refused to leave until the half.
@@DaybombTV The best way to describe it is ballers seeing Mj must be what really religious people feel seeing the Pope. It's just different. He's different. If you showed me circumstantial proof he's a alien. I'd just believe you. No questions asked.
In clutch situations in the finals ray allen and Kyrie made the winning shots. Both weren’t assisted from James on those shots. Mj made the winning shots in the finals. Also had assists to Paxton and Kerr on there winning shots. My point being that mj knew what to do and came through if he took the shot or if he had to pass to the open guy.
Another fun statistic. In the finals When lebrons team is down 1-3 pts with 20 seconds left and his team needs a bucket to tie or take the lead, he is 0/6 on such shots. 0% in the clutch in the finals should disqualify you from the goat debate
They also try to act like both were “saved” by other shooters in those championships, but Paxson and Kerr simply hit the “nail-in-the-coffin” shots in clinch games. Worst case scenario, they go to game 7. Lebron literally straight up WAS saved by Ray’s shot and would not have won his only back2back if Ray missed it. Kyrie’s wasn’t quite as crucial, the Cavs could have potentially still won the game even if he missed, but it did come after a 4+ min scoring drought and the odds makers would have definitely favored Golden State to win at that point had Kyrie missed. So it’s really disingenuous when Lebron fans try to use Paxson and Kerr as cover for how fortunate Lebron truly was to have clutch teammates in the two most “valuable” championships of his career I.e. winning a back2back and the 3-1 comeback
I laughed the point when you stopped the video to tell us that LowBron is a good shooter... I can't wait to continue the video... btw. stats don't lie ^^
Jordan….the numbers don’t lie. Plus it’s his style. Watching Jordan was like watching a kung fu movie! YOU KNOW something exciting was bound to happen! Not a dump truck plowing down the middle for a dunk but THE GRACE and the many ways to score! The most perfect/complete ball player ever….ever to do it.
Forget updating this they need to wait for lebron to retire and do this right. I feel Jordan comes out on top w a 6-0 record in the finals. You can't beat perfection.
I think your reaction to this video is my favorite one I've watched. You didn't bring any biases in, you listened carefully, and you didn't talk over the information being presented. Nicely done, dude. MJ is the GOAT and anyone making the argument to the contrary simply just doesn't understand how good he was and/or don't want to acknowledge reality. This video from DangerProductions has done a lot of excellent work in putting out the facts and telling the world how it is. I think a lot of people get the GOAT discussion mixed up with whoever their favorite player is, hence why this "debate" even exists in the first place. People can say their favorite player is Lebron and there's nothing wrong with that, but when it comes to the actual numbers and accomplishments to determine the GOAT, it's MJ all day every day; there's no real debate to be had. And as for who I'd want to take the final shot? Either MJ or Larry Bird; they were both reliable and LETHAL in the clutch compared to the vast majority of their peers.
People ignore him because Jordan beat him so bad but I would take Karl Malone before LeBron. Malone had a much better mid game. And Malone not in the conversation just because Malone couldn't win. Hakeem in the same boat. I think both dominate LeBron.
It will be tough to ever beat what one man accomplished. It will be even harder to beat one man’s drive to be the best ever. It was always personal with this man
I saw both of them play it’s not comparable better at shooting , passing , finisher mode range , clutch , and a better free throw shooter , and great defender !
Why do people say that LBJ is a more complete basketball player than MJ? That's ridiculous!! MJ was better at scoring and defending!! That already are the 2 most important aspects of the game! Ever seen LBJ win a dunk contest? Hell, he didn't even participate in it! MJ won it before.. so who's the BETTER all round athlete then? The only thing i might give LBJ is his ability to pass. But that don't make you the GOAT or John Stockton would be it!!
I was born in Chicago and watched Jordan’s whole career. Moved to Ohio in 01’ and was lucky to see James as well. Going to a bulls game with mj was always electric. Everyone knew mj would always come through. Never had any doubts in mj. So hard to explain that feeling of knowing and feeling that. With James I don’t think I ever have felt that way about James. I always had a more worried feeling about James being able to come through. Why? Well he hasn’t been as clutch and not a very good shooter. Never did I really sweat with mj but James I would be sweating bullets. One thing that isn’t mentioned much is the fact that mj never went to a game seven in the finals.
The truth is that Lebron fans created a debate that should never exist. Not because Jordan will be ever untouchable (he wont), but because Lebron didnt got there. And that doesnt make Lebron less bigger and historic
I've watched the NBA since the late 80s. And no one so far can touch MJs game. I didn't need this man stats and data to let me know that. But it's hard to face all the numbers and data by facts. And not come to the outcome that no one cant top his Airness. And cant even put Lebron in my top 5. But that's just my opinion at this point. :) but Lebron vs MJ is laughable. I don't even have Lebron a top of the Black Mamba in my 5 spot. But to each their own. Like who you like. Great break down bud.
I think I saw that the clutch % since this video has gone down for LeBron regarding game winning/tying shots with 5 seconds or less. I think it's down to 17.8% if I remember the post on FB correctly.
Update LBJ has 4rings and 4FMVPs His individual game record in the finals is 22-33 since he won 4-2 against Miami. Still not very good but hey u right he does have more wins and losses now. Most of his averages have remained the same but his advance stats are suffering because of the losing LA has been doing. His per game averages for his position have not changed.
I watched him on TV but never went to a Bulls game. I did go to a Wizard's game when he played with them. Who takes the last shot? Either Bird or Jordan. LeBron's job in that situation would be to pass the ball to Bird or Jordan.
The campaign to make LeBron the GOAT continues. But consider this.....Jordan's Bulls never loss 3 in row 1990 - 1998 The only modern era team to 3peat twice. The only team to go 72 - 10 and win the championship. Finally the NBA has made it official by naming the MVP Award after Michael Jeffrey Jordan. LeBron who? Oh the guy that shoots free throws a little better that Shaq and Wilt. Shannon needs to shut up until LeBron is decent on possibly the most basic shot in basketball. FREE THROWS
NOt only that.. another accomplishment that separates the two is that MJ led their amateur olympic team 8-0 against the Nba all stars in 84 which almost all of that allstar roster are HOF. Then proceeded to repeat 8-0 bringing gold in the olympic stage. And this was done before he was on the NBA. Lebron has 2 bronze while he was already in the nba playing with nba star talent.
Growing up in Northern suburbs of Chicago, I was able to get to two Championship Games and about 3-4 regular season games watching Jordan, in his prime. The town was on fire. Some of the best basketball I have ever seen. The highlights don't do it justice, LIVE watching Michael he just seemed faster. It would be hard to track him as he played. He actually lived in Glenview/Northbrook area, which is where I lived. Saw him in his driveway once, gave us a cold stare as we drove by our young a*s JAWS were on the floor. Fact is Lebron James IS the Greatest Player of this ERA. If Jordan is #1 than James is easily #2. Thanks for the vid!
I have no idea how many reactions I've seen to this. I love the moment when you face the truth about who the goat is. It's a real shame you didn't get the chance to see MJ play. If you had seen him play, none of you would even think about having this discussion.
Yea.. James won the 4th, known as "In the bubble" title. Now, can you consider that a proper title? Lebron fans do for sure. But when you check all the pre-bubble stats and who got invited into the bubble you shouldn't have had that bubble happen at all. Top games played by a team pre-bubble was 75 and lowest was 64. A lot can happen withing 11 games to change the standings. Teams couldn't practice properly, players were on and off during season due to testing positive to covid, games were postponed due to covid, and so on and so fort.. Yes, the Lakers and Lebron won, but that one surely has a diminished brightness than any other title winner in the NBA history. Just my honest opinion. =)
The part that most people overlook when he talks about advanced stats is that on top of MJ being 1st in the season and 1st in the playoffs in all categories, the stats also show that he was more effective in the playoffs playing against stiff competition night in night out than he was during the regular season !
Yes lbj has 4 but this video is 2 years old. But I feel like that doesn't even matter cuz at that point lbj had already played longer than MJ so I don't think the "updated" stats have any impact on this comparison.
Lebron won the longevity check mark. Ask yourself this; at the end of the school year when all the little kids are getting all kinds of awards and that one kid comes up and the only award he gets is perfect attendance, you know you’re telling yourself “that poor kid. All he got was a perfect attendance award. Probably because his Momma forced him to go every day”. You NEVER thought: “That’s one of the top students if not THE top student”
I also feel Lebron only won the longevity check mark. Because he did not play as much games each season, compared to Jordan. Plus the new rules in the NBA favors the offense tremendously now.
That 25/26 playoff series record was because of the ‘95 magic, when he lost to shaq and penny after coming out of retirement. That was when he was wearing number 45 and then they taunted him saying 45 is not the same as 23. Then he came back the next season going 72-10 and sweeping the magic in the playoffs. If it weren’t for that loss and if we assume he went on to win the championship that year, he would’ve been 28/28 playoff series record.
Who do you want taking the shot? When you're one point down? Michael Jordan. When you're two points down? Michael Jordan When you're three points down? Larry Bird
Robert Horry won two back to back championships with the Houston Rockets, three with the Los Angeles Lakers, and two more with the San Antonio Spurs. So, yeah he has 7 championship rings now.
I think there is a difference in someone’s favorite player vs who truly is the best all time. Mark price is one of my all time favorites but he’s so far away from being in that conversation. Kukoc is another of my favorites but again the same as price. So who I think is the goat is mj and also one of my favorite players all time.
Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T... There is no question in my mind. As the analysis showed, Lebron slight stat over Jordan is longevity. Jordan played college ball and retired several times, played baseball and then came back, otherwise Lebron wouldn't even have the longevity stat.
lol. I'd take Koby before Labron. How is this even a debate? Kobe might be #2. You have a series to win, who do you take? I swear to god. I don't know that I don't take a healthy prime Steph Curry over Labron That is at least a debate. This is ridiculous.
The danger production video was made before lebron won the lakers championship. But that's beside the point. Like the man said mj basically played 13 years. That's less than the 4 players ahead of him all time scoring list.
I watch many reactions about this particular comparison video of who is the goat. I observed that you are the most intellectual and open minded so far.
I think just the opening 30 seconds kind of tells you why MJ is the goat. Look at all those plays were MJ is going to the basket and there are multiple people all over him. Then you look at LeBrons plays going to the basket there’s no one within 10 feet of him. Michael would be racking up 50 points every night if he played in today’s NBA.
@@DaybombTV yeah, I’m not a LeBron hater by any means, I’m a diehard Laker fan and was very happy when he came to the team, Ive got a LeBron James Laker jersey, and the dude is an all-time great, he’s a living legend, but he’s not Michael Jordan. I understand he’s got great stats, and I understand stats are in Porten but they’re not the end I’ll be all. His grade is LeBron is he had more help in an easier division, and won less. He’s putting up great numbers right now, but doesn’t really matter if the team is losing all the time? When you’re talking about the goat in any sport and I know some people will throw the phone across the room and get mad when I see this but winning counts. Championships count even LeBron James said championships count.
Looking at the accolades and accomplishments the difference between Jordan and LeBron is Kevin Durant. There’s a whole hall of fame player between them. Jordan is the GOAT and hope I see another player like him or better in my lifetime.
This is not directed at DaybombTV, but the acronym, G.O.A.T., stands for the Greatest of All Time! We are not talking about the greatest of YOUR time. I see where many have said, I never saw MJ play, so he's not the greatest, so someone else is my GOAT. Now that's some flawed thinking there! That's like saying, I've never driven a Lamborghini, so therefore, it's not a fast car! It's difficult to measure greatness, when you have never seen greatness. My 2 cents. lol
The only reason ppl think of Lebron the way they do is because of how long he was in the game Just cumulative stats But if that’s taken, he still is a pro but can’t hang with the beasts of men Jordan took the top with less time in nba although he played through college against tuff competition due to the nba drafting post college Just bunch of excuses of lebron fans that they can’t back up and in the end say everyone is bigger and better Not much of a development except with technology and the advantage of learning from Jordan videos
MJ is the most complete basketball player to have ever played the game of basketball. He’s the epitome of what greatness an athlete is. Lebron is probably top 10 player of all time. Magic, Bird, Kareem, Russell , Kobe, Duncan, Hakeem, Wilt and Pippen is for me above him. Stop the fake debate.
Clutch shot for my life? I'll go with Pat Riley's answer. "If I wanted someone to shoot a shot to pay off my mortgage, I'd get Michael Jordan, if I wanted someone to shoot a shot to save my life, I'd get Larry Bird." MJ is the GOAT imo, but Larry Bird was the coldest MFer to ever play, and the most clutch player in NBA history. Larry wouldn't just kill you with the last shot, he'd tell you what shot he was going to take, and then take that shot, hit nothing but nylon and smile at you afterwards and say, "I told you so." - Just ask Byron Scott or James Worthy.
We've been trying to pass that along for years! MJ is the best ever. Offense mixed with defense. Taking nothing away from LeBron, he's the 2nd best ever. And he's been the best player for the last 20 years. If you're great at something, there's always somebody better than you.
When we say Jordan is the 🐐 people will bring up his accolades, his drive and will to win, the intensity he displayed on both ends of the court, ability to take over games at will, the 6 for 6 finals record or his footwork and incredibly deep bag of moves you know shit like that. When they make their argument for LeBron being the 🐐 they'll try to discredit MJs competition while over hyping LeBron's or say some shit like MJ never won without Scottie and Phil or they'll bring up LBJs longevity stats but if you saw them both in their prime it's undoubtedly MJ not even close or debatable if you ask me. I've seen LeBron fold and flop too many times to ever consider him the greatest
Let’s not forget that the 2 years that MJ left. It is safe to say that he had a good chance at 2 more finals. Because he was still in his peak. We know that because when he came back he 3 peated again.
Lebron also feasts on lower level teams (especially these days) to keep his averages “close” to MJ’s, but I like to also look at their best and their worst moments and games. MJ’s highs are higher and his lows aren’t as low. In things like “career defining moments” as well as things like best playoff games and worst playoff games. Lebron hasn’t scored at least 20 points in 30 playoff games, MJ hasn’t scored 30 in only 6 playoff games. Yes, Lebron has played in a lot more playoff games, but even as a % of games played Lebron scores less than 20 in 10.6% of playoff games and MJ only in 3.3% of his games. AND Jordan STILL has more 40pt+ playoff games, he’s got 38 Lebron’s only got 29. So if you go see a Lebron playoff game, you are just as likely to see him score 40pt+ as you are to see him have less than 20pts. If you saw MJ in a playoff game, there was a 21.2% chance you saw him score 40 or more points. Literally 7x more likely to see him drop 40 than not drop at least 20
I grew up seeing Jordan on TV it's real no one wanted there team to play the bull's I'm a blazer fan I've met tarry Porter and a few other blazers I got to meet Jordan once in Seattle at his new restaurant he opened nice guy Jordan is the goat
MJ is the MOST COMPLETE player to ever play in the NBA…in 13 full seasons, he racked up 10 scoring titles, 9 All-Defensive First Teams, 6 Finals MVPs, 5 MVPs, Defensive Player of the Year-in the SAME season he won the Scoring Title AND Regular Season MVP to go with his All-Star Game MVP AND 2nd consecutive Slam Dunk Title, led his team to 6 NBA Championships (2 Three-Peats) in 8 years, never lost more than 2 games in a row from Nov. 1990-June 1998, leads the NBA in advanced statistics in multiple categories, multiple clutch shots and game winners against the best defenders and defenses, led the NBA in Steals 3 times, only Guard with 200 steals and 100 blocked shots in the same season and he did it Twice!

Talk about being durable like Superman, MJ never missed more than 4 games in a season, except for the 2 years he was injured. MJ played in ALL 82 games 9 times, including his last year with the Wizards at age 40, and he played at least 80 games 11 times…. These are the facts ….and proves MJ was not from planet

I think your reaction to this video is my favorite one I've watched. You didn't bring any biases in, you listened carefully, and you didn't talk over the information being presented. Nicely done, dude.
MJ is the GOAT and anyone making the argument to the contrary simply just doesn't understand how good he was and/or don't want to acknowledge reality. This video from DangerProductions has done a lot of excellent work in putting out the facts and telling the world how it is. I think a lot of people get the GOAT discussion mixed up with whoever their favorite player is, hence why this "debate" even exists in the first place. People can say their favorite player is Lebron and there's nothing wrong with that, but when it comes to the actual numbers and accomplishments to determine the GOAT, it's MJ all day every day; there's no real debate to be had.
And as for who I'd want to take the final shot? Either MJ or Larry Bird; they were both reliable and LETHAL in the clutch compared to the vast majority of their peers.
People ignore him because Jordan beat him so bad but I would take Karl Malone before LeBron. Malone had a much better mid game. And Malone not in the conversation just because Malone couldn't win. Hakeem in the same boat. I think both dominate LeBron.
Skill set wise, I'll take Hakeem over any NBA center ever
@@Jbeeze82correct, someone mentioned Hakeem though, so I just named dropped him on the post.
Michael jordan is the goat in my eyes hands down
Simply put, he's the GOAT!
It will be tough to ever beat what one man accomplished. It will be even harder to beat one man’s drive to be the best ever. It was always personal with this man
I saw both of them play it’s not comparable better at shooting , passing , finisher mode range , clutch , and a better free throw shooter , and great defender !
Why do people say that LBJ is a more complete basketball player than MJ? That's ridiculous!! MJ was better at scoring and defending!! That already are the 2 most important aspects of the game! Ever seen LBJ win a dunk contest? Hell, he didn't even participate in it! MJ won it before.. so who's the BETTER all round athlete then? The only thing i might give LBJ is his ability to pass. But that don't make you the GOAT or John Stockton would be it!!
You watched Mike to see how he would win. We watch LeBron to see how he'll lose.
Gotta say Mike. Best resume ever
The GOAT 🐐
I was born in Chicago and watched Jordan’s whole career. Moved to Ohio in 01’ and was lucky to see James as well. Going to a bulls game with mj was always electric. Everyone knew mj would always come through. Never had any doubts in mj. So hard to explain that feeling of knowing and feeling that. With James I don’t think I ever have felt that way about James. I always had a more worried feeling about James being able to come through. Why? Well he hasn’t been as clutch and not a very good shooter. Never did I really sweat with mj but James I would be sweating bullets. One thing that isn’t mentioned much is the fact that mj never went to a game seven in the finals.
The truth is that Lebron fans created a debate that should never exist. Not because Jordan will be ever untouchable (he wont), but because Lebron didnt got there. And that doesnt make Lebron less bigger and historic
I've watched the NBA since the late 80s. And no one so far can touch MJs game. I didn't need this man stats and data to let me know that. But it's hard to face all the numbers and data by facts. And not come to the outcome that no one cant top his Airness. And cant even put Lebron in my top 5. But that's just my opinion at this point. :) but Lebron vs MJ is laughable. I don't even have Lebron a top of the Black Mamba in my 5 spot. But to each their own. Like who you like. Great break down bud.
I think I saw that the clutch % since this video has gone down for LeBron regarding game winning/tying shots with 5 seconds or less. I think it's down to 17.8% if I remember the post on FB correctly.
Great reaction! MJ is the GOAT!
This video was made 3 years ago, he had 3 then. Bubble run was after this video release
Update
LBJ has 4rings and 4FMVPs
His individual game record in the finals is 22-33 since he won 4-2 against Miami. Still not very good but hey u right he does have more wins and losses now. Most of his averages have remained the same but his advance stats are suffering because of the losing LA has been doing.
His per game averages for his position have not changed.
I watched him on TV but never went to a Bulls game. I did go to a Wizard's game when he played with them.
Who takes the last shot? Either Bird or Jordan. LeBron's job in that situation would be to pass the ball to Bird or Jordan.
You are correct, this was made mid season of 2020 or between 2019 and 2020 season but i unfortunately don't change much on the actual outcome of this.
The campaign to make LeBron the GOAT continues. But consider this.....Jordan's Bulls never loss 3 in row 1990 - 1998 The only modern era team to 3peat twice. The only team to go 72 - 10 and win the championship. Finally the NBA has made it official by naming the MVP Award after Michael Jeffrey Jordan. LeBron who? Oh the guy that shoots free throws a little better that Shaq and Wilt. Shannon needs to shut up until LeBron is decent on possibly the most basic shot in basketball. FREE THROWS
NOt only that.. another accomplishment that separates the two is that MJ led their amateur olympic team 8-0 against the Nba all stars in 84 which almost all of that allstar roster are HOF. Then proceeded to repeat 8-0 bringing gold in the olympic stage. And this was done before he was on the NBA. Lebron has 2 bronze while he was already in the nba playing with nba star talent.
i was 16 when i went to my first bulls game. and let me tell you watching Jordan play in the stadium was a true treat.
I grew up watching Mike on TV in the 80s and 90s. Each game was an event, regular season playoff, etc.
Growing up in Northern suburbs of Chicago, I was able to get to two Championship Games and about 3-4 regular season games watching Jordan, in his prime. The town was on fire. Some of the best basketball I have ever seen. The highlights don't do it justice, LIVE watching Michael he just seemed faster. It would be hard to track him as he played. He actually lived in Glenview/Northbrook area, which is where I lived. Saw him in his driveway once, gave us a cold stare as we drove by our young a*s JAWS were on the floor. Fact is Lebron James IS the Greatest Player of this ERA. If Jordan is #1 than James is easily #2. Thanks for the vid!
5 Sec i gottaaaaaa Goooo with MJ 🐐
I have no idea how many reactions I've seen to this. I love the moment when you face the truth about who the goat is. It's a real shame you didn't get the chance to see MJ play. If you had seen him play, none of you would even think about having this discussion.
Yea.. James won the 4th, known as "In the bubble" title. Now, can you consider that a proper title? Lebron fans do for sure. But when you check all the pre-bubble stats and who got invited into the bubble you shouldn't have had that bubble happen at all. Top games played by a team pre-bubble was 75 and lowest was 64. A lot can happen withing 11 games to change the standings. Teams couldn't practice properly, players were on and off during season due to testing positive to covid, games were postponed due to covid, and so on and so fort.. Yes, the Lakers and Lebron won, but that one surely has a diminished brightness than any other title winner in the NBA history. Just my honest opinion. =)
Lebron loses the statistical battle as well as the best winner battle. It’s really not a debate at all ‼️
The part that most people overlook when he talks about advanced stats is that on top of MJ being 1st in the season and 1st in the playoffs in all categories, the stats also show that he was more effective in the playoffs playing against stiff competition night in night out than he was during the regular season !
Yes lbj has 4 but this video is 2 years old. But I feel like that doesn't even matter cuz at that point lbj had already played longer than MJ so I don't think the "updated" stats have any impact on this comparison.
Lebron won the longevity check mark. Ask yourself this; at the end of the school year when all the little kids are getting all kinds of awards and that one kid comes up and the only award he gets is perfect attendance, you know you’re telling yourself “that poor kid. All he got was a perfect attendance award. Probably because his Momma forced him to go every day”. You NEVER thought: “That’s one of the top students if not THE top student”
I also feel Lebron only won the longevity check mark. Because he did not play as much games each season, compared to Jordan. Plus the new rules in the NBA favors the offense tremendously now.
I got to watch jordan my whole life growing up I feel lucky
MJ is the Goat.. by far
That 25/26 playoff series record was because of the ‘95 magic, when he lost to shaq and penny after coming out of retirement. That was when he was wearing number 45 and then they taunted him saying 45 is not the same as 23. Then he came back the next season going 72-10 and sweeping the magic in the playoffs.
If it weren’t for that loss and if we assume he went on to win the championship that year, he would’ve been 28/28 playoff series record.
Who do you want taking the shot? When you're one point down? Michael Jordan.
When you're two points down? Michael Jordan
When you're three points down? Larry Bird
Reggie miller
@@DaybombTV I'd be happy with Reggie for sure
Larry Bird gotta be on a 5 man Mt. Rushmore
Robert Horry won two back to back championships with the Houston Rockets, three with the Los Angeles Lakers, and two more with the San Antonio Spurs. So, yeah he has 7 championship rings now.
I think there is a difference in someone’s favorite player vs who truly is the best all time. Mark price is one of my all time favorites but he’s so far away from being in that conversation. Kukoc is another of my favorites but again the same as price. So who I think is the goat is mj and also one of my favorite players all time.
Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T... There is no question in my mind. As the analysis showed, Lebron slight stat over Jordan is longevity. Jordan played college ball and retired several times, played baseball and then came back, otherwise Lebron wouldn't even have the longevity stat.
To have seen him was incredible. Every night was 30-35 and somebody getting dunked on.
lol. I'd take Koby before Labron. How is this even a debate? Kobe might be #2. You have a series to win, who do you take? I swear to god. I don't know that I don't take a healthy prime Steph Curry over Labron That is at least a debate. This is ridiculous.
I was at the 63 pt game here in Boston he was no way to describe it😮
Larry said it
God disguised as MJ
The danger production video was made before lebron won the lakers championship. But that's beside the point. Like the man said mj basically played 13 years. That's less than the 4 players ahead of him all time scoring list.
Watch more videos on RUclips about Michael Jordan when he was on the court. You'll see why Michael Jordan is and always will be the G.O.A.T
Watching the Bulls in the 90's was unbelievable.
Yeah LBJ has 4 now (bubble chip) but only had 3 when this video was made.
Saw both live...MJ is another Level..
MJ🐐
I watch many reactions about this particular comparison video of who is the goat. I observed that you are the most intellectual and open minded so far.
Thank you!
I think just the opening 30 seconds kind of tells you why MJ is the goat. Look at all those plays were MJ is going to the basket and there are multiple people all over him. Then you look at LeBrons plays going to the basket there’s no one within 10 feet of him. Michael would be racking up 50 points every night if he played in today’s NBA.
I feel the same about MJ he is the goat hands down Lebron is still a great player but I don't think nobody is going to pass MJ
@@DaybombTV yeah, I’m not a LeBron hater by any means, I’m a diehard Laker fan and was very happy when he came to the team, Ive got a LeBron James Laker jersey, and the dude is an all-time great, he’s a living legend, but he’s not Michael Jordan. I understand he’s got great stats, and I understand stats are in Porten but they’re not the end I’ll be all. His grade is LeBron is he had more help in an easier division, and won less. He’s putting up great numbers right now, but doesn’t really matter if the team is losing all the time? When you’re talking about the goat in any sport and I know some people will throw the phone across the room and get mad when I see this but winning counts. Championships count even LeBron James said championships count.
Looking at the accolades and accomplishments the difference between Jordan and LeBron is Kevin Durant. There’s a whole hall of fame player between them. Jordan is the GOAT and hope I see another player like him or better in my lifetime.
@21:34 you know lebron percentages are only getting worse and will get worse as he stays in the league right
You think it will get worse idk
MJ by far
This is not directed at DaybombTV, but the acronym, G.O.A.T., stands for the Greatest of All Time! We are not talking about the greatest of YOUR time. I see where many have said, I never saw MJ play, so he's not the greatest, so someone else is my GOAT. Now that's some flawed thinking there! That's like saying, I've never driven a Lamborghini, so therefore, it's not a fast car! It's difficult to measure greatness, when you have never seen greatness. My 2 cents. lol
The only reason ppl think of Lebron the way they do is because of how long he was in the game
Just cumulative stats
But if that’s taken, he still is a pro but can’t hang with the beasts of men
Jordan took the top with less time in nba although he played through college against tuff competition due to the nba drafting post college
Just bunch of excuses of lebron fans that they can’t back up and in the end say everyone is bigger and better
Not much of a development except with technology and the advantage of learning from Jordan videos
MJ is the most complete basketball player to have ever played the game of basketball. He’s the epitome of what greatness an athlete is. Lebron is probably top 10 player of all time. Magic, Bird, Kareem, Russell , Kobe, Duncan, Hakeem, Wilt and Pippen is for me above him. Stop the fake debate.
Clutch shot for my life? I'll go with Pat Riley's answer. "If I wanted someone to shoot a shot to pay off my mortgage, I'd get Michael Jordan, if I wanted someone to shoot a shot to save my life, I'd get Larry Bird."
MJ is the GOAT imo, but Larry Bird was the coldest MFer to ever play, and the most clutch player in NBA history. Larry wouldn't just kill you with the last shot, he'd tell you what shot he was going to take, and then take that shot, hit nothing but nylon and smile at you afterwards and say, "I told you so." - Just ask Byron Scott or James Worthy.
Last second shot for all the marbles. I’m taking Jordan 1st Bird 2nd
We've been trying to pass that along for years! MJ is the best ever. Offense mixed with defense. Taking nothing away from LeBron, he's the 2nd best ever. And he's been the best player for the last 20 years. If you're great at something, there's always somebody better than you.
Great vid man.Can you do a reaction video to Larry Birds ultimate mix tape.
Yes I have Larry bird on the list soon I have to get back to my sports videos heavy
This video was done in 2018 I believe. But bron only got 4. Being the juggernaut is better and harder cuz everyone is gunning for u
yea he got 4 I thought I was tripping when I did the reaction thanks for your feedback respectfully
When we say Jordan is the 🐐 people will bring up his accolades, his drive and will to win, the intensity he displayed on both ends of the court, ability to take over games at will, the 6 for 6 finals record or his footwork and incredibly deep bag of moves you know shit like that. When they make their argument for LeBron being the 🐐 they'll try to discredit MJs competition while over hyping LeBron's or say some shit like MJ never won without Scottie and Phil or they'll bring up LBJs longevity stats but if you saw them both in their prime it's undoubtedly MJ not even close or debatable if you ask me. I've seen LeBron fold and flop too many times to ever consider him the greatest
Been to like 20 mj games Chicago and wizards and he was just crazy different like AI said he had a aura 😂
Lebron is not a shot blocker....barely over a thousand in his 20th year.....another myth debunked.
Let’s not forget that the 2 years that MJ left. It is safe to say that he had a good chance at 2 more finals. Because he was still in his peak. We know that because when he came back he 3 peated again.
1. MJ 2. Lebron 3. Kobe 4. Kareem 5. KD 6. Wilt Chamberlain 7. Magic Johnson 8. Giannis 9. Larry Bird 10. Shaq
Man lebron is 4 and 6 in the finals how does this generation think mediocrity on the biggest stage is goat status
Lebron also feasts on lower level teams (especially these days) to keep his averages “close” to MJ’s, but I like to also look at their best and their worst moments and games. MJ’s highs are higher and his lows aren’t as low. In things like “career defining moments” as well as things like best playoff games and worst playoff games. Lebron hasn’t scored at least 20 points in 30 playoff games, MJ hasn’t scored 30 in only 6 playoff games. Yes, Lebron has played in a lot more playoff games, but even as a % of games played Lebron scores less than 20 in 10.6% of playoff games and MJ only in 3.3% of his games. AND Jordan STILL has more 40pt+ playoff games, he’s got 38 Lebron’s only got 29. So if you go see a Lebron playoff game, you are just as likely to see him score 40pt+ as you are to see him have less than 20pts. If you saw MJ in a playoff game, there was a 21.2% chance you saw him score 40 or more points. Literally 7x more likely to see him drop 40 than not drop at least 20
BEING THE JUGGERNAUT.
this vid is 2 years old... and brons numbers haven't changed enough to make any of those stats any different.
MJ is a combination of LeBron and Kobe, LeBron (4 MVP + 4 FMVP) + Kobe (1 MVP + 2 FMVP)=MJ (5 MVP + 6 FMVP).
Top 5 Jordan, Bird, Kaream, Wilt, Bryant
6-10 Mailman, Stoctan, Iverson, Harding, Lebron
great choice
Gotta be updated 😂😂
MJ GOAT 💯
I grew up seeing Jordan on TV it's real no one wanted there team to play the bull's I'm a blazer fan I've met tarry Porter and a few other blazers I got to meet Jordan once in Seattle at his new restaurant he opened nice guy Jordan is the goat
Jordan the 🐐
#GOAT
To take the final shot game 7 I'm taking Larry Bird but out of these two I'll take Jordan
