No. And no other player will ever give a damn about pursuing that record. Ask any player would they rather have 6 rings, 6 Finals MVP’s, 5 regular season MVP’s and 32K points vs Lebron’s 40K and sparsely spread out championships and MVP’s(none since age 28). I would think they’d take Jordan’s resume. But these new guys be weird and have different priorities so you never know.
Honestly i think they care more about the money. Gilbert arenas made it clear he would take the carmelo anthony route and get the big payday from a team with no chance at winning
@@je5406 what a cliché. google this ---> 10 NBA Players With The Most Trophies And Awards Of All Time lebron could play for another 21 yrs, scores 50k points, he is not going to surpass, let alone touch, MJ's solid NBA accolades/accomplishments. MJ even retired twice in his prime..... let that sink in kid...
Allen took DMV test and scored perfect 100 pts to get his license. Bob took his first DMV test and scored only 65. He worked hard on it next time to score 85 for his license and a total of 65 + 85 = 150 pts. So Bob began talking, "Look, Allen might be a perfect driver but I'm the all time DMV scoring champ."
Well the allegations were obviously always coming. The way the world is today you can't get around that. If MJ played today he would get the same allegations because of his insane ability,.
Jordan was electrifying to watch. Jordan did moves that was god like. That’s why he’s my goat. The rings was just the icing on the cake. I never watched a Lebron game and said wow what a play or did you see that move. Jordan would go up for a jump shot and the blocker jump late and Jordan would freeze time and still be in the air as the block came back to the ground. Jordan was called Black Jesus because Jordan could bend gravity. If it wasn’t for video you wouldn’t believe the stories about Jordan.
Kareem, Erving, Magic, Bird, and finally MJ. These are the men who built the modern NBA. LeBron is enjoying the fruits of that labour. He has not expanded the NBA at all. The players mentioned before did just that. Those are the GOATS
Nah. Once he was no longer in his prime imo that doesnt matter anymore. I'd say his last prime year was the championship year before injuries and age turned him into a still great player but no longer prime lebron. Just like I don't and no one should hold the fact mj didn't win rings on the wizards against him or shaq didn't win on the cavs or whoever you wanna pick. Anyone expecting lebron to win championships still and thinks anything less is a failure just is hating he of course wants to win but he's not at a point anymore where if he's not winning championships he's coming up short. Him just being a spectacular individual player is more then you could ask for from anyone his age and his amount of time in the league. The fact that some people still think that they have the ability to win and make a playoff run is just icing on the cake at his age.
I had LBJ #2 all time. But the more I examine his case the more he drops. I put Kareem, Kobe, Bird ahead of him. Not from a stat stuffing perspective but from an impact on winning.

The point is he hasn’t sir. MJ is the GOAT. Lebron has played longer than MJ & has still accomplished less than MJ🤣. It’s not a conversation. Get out ya feelings.
No.... LeGM has played over 400+ more games. If MJ choose to not retire & played even within 100 games of Lebron he'd have over 42k points. Lebron's 40k point achievement just strengthens his longevity, but he already has the greatest longevity career ever. He's also benefited from the era, lack of defense, rules that protect stars, better training/nutrition, rarely playing back to back games & the elephant in the room = a decade + of PED use. LeGm is so desperate that it tells you even he knows he hasn't surpassed MJ's legacy. His need to continually bring it up shows how insecure he is about it. MJ never says a word because he doesn't care & he knows his legacy/is perfectly satisfied with that legacy. Period, end of story. What is that clown at 14:30 talking about?? Lebron has 29,041 FGA's All-Time (w/ the most misses ever) Jordan only had 24,537 FGA's All-Time. Lebron passed Jordan in total FGA's in the 19'-20' season (5 years ago) & that includes shooting 3,800 more 3's!!! The guy has NO CLUE what he's talking about. 🙄
hell never be the goat., this debate ends in 2011 when a 2x mvp, a player on his prime teaming up with a top 75 player and an all star but couldnt win. how can you get outscored by a 33 years old bench player lol
That callers argument was a great one!! Don’t laugh it off like you don’t recognize HAHA. He took the same amount of shot attempts in SIX more years. Not saying he’s better but that is impressive
If being an all time leader in major categories makes your the goat regardless of epic playoff meltdowns, then John Stockton is the best point guard of all time and Karl Malone is the third best player of all time.
If the fact his longevity has made him the all time turnover leader, on the verge of most missed shots in nba history, most playoff losses, most finals losses…don’t count in the goat debate then his positive longevity stats don’t either.
40k is a great achievement but come on, Jordan played like 15 years and played in a tougher era. LeBron cannot catch up to Jordan, Magic, Kobe or Duncan. I cannot stand this new play in tournament and I think Adam Silver James has been trying to help the Lakers but they’re still in 9th place. Jordan played in an era where the playoffs had 1st-8th seed only.
It was tougher because of Hard fouls and hand checking was legal. Lebron would have a Lot harder time driving to the hoop when Dennis Rodman is pushing him with one hand the whole way. Also there were a lot less 3s so the court was less spread. Easier help defense.
This is the biggest achievement of Lebron because this record is going to be his for a long long long long time but for the GOAT debate doesn't do anything a new ring would maybe mean something

@@mvpfocus regardless it took him 21 years to make that. Bron broke the scoring record in 20. And when he break that field goal record I'm sure you'll find something else more interesting than that too
Ironically, LeBron and his fans constantly pushing this GOAT argument only causes people to not appreciate these kinds of milestones and achievements. We would root for him more if he wasn't unrealistic with his expectations-what's wrong with being a universal top 3/5 player? You didn't peak as hard as MJ did, no one has except for him. He earned the GOAT label.
There is absolutely nothing that he can do to eclipse Jordan. He can play until 50 and score 50,000 points, and it won't matter to the majority. As a matter of fact, each year that passes, hurts his case.
At the rate players are scoring today with the 3 point shot, I wouldn't be surprised if someone else surpasses 40,000 points in the next 5 to 10 years. But no, Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T hands-down. Lebron is a top 5.
MJ is the Goat....you right the way today are scoring Luka could get aleast 30,000 and I would say Anthony Edwards could get 35,000 the way he been scoring and it's only his 4th season averaging almost 30
As they mention all the time, what really matters is peak performance. When we talk about the GOAT we are talking about who reached the highest level of play, no matter what the sport is. For an extreme example, if you had a guy go in 100 meter sprint for 9 second once and some other dude average 9.3 for 40 times. What would people care about more? Obviously the faster dude
Good luck accurately measuring a peak in a team sport....too many people don't recognize this is why there can never be a debate. MJ did not win those chips alone and Lebron didnt score 40k alone on the court. It's a team game...smh
@@hooplah.hoops.hoodooyou definitely can measure that. How the hell do they give an MVP award in a team sport? They take all that in to consideration, don't type nonsense.
@@nivbitan1 Are you saying since they give out an MVP award it means they accurately identify the Most Valuable Player each year correctly? Dont make me laugh....talk about typing nonsense. MVP is a media storyline more than anything - dont get it twisted
Finals loses.... LeBron has lost 6 championship series of 9. (No bubbles) jordan has twice as many championship series wins and zero championship loses of 6. No debate.
The fact that Jordan was so wildly popular worldwide with only newspaper/cable tv is crazy. Its hard for the younger kids today to understand how big MJ’s impact was. The Last Dance showed a glimpse of it and his still ridiculously popular Jordan brand does as well.
I'm sorry Lebron is not the GOAT, I half to agree the last dance did open the younger generation's eyes, I never watched Michael Jordan play with the bulls, but I sure as hell got some insight to what a champion he was.
The problem is we never expand the conversation. What actually makes someone the goat? It’s no real criteria other than people’s opinions. We can’t just make MJ’s career the criteria.
@@Avarice-Zero He’s flawed like every other player. Let’s not only highlight his achievements when there are multiple players that have achievements that are just as impressive if we’re looking objectively.
@vonc5 True. But the reason his career has been looked at as the criteria is due to the flaws, the failures, achievements, accolades, losses, and wins. He has stats and trophies to go along with the storybook grind from the bottom to the top. He didn't take shortcuts to victories. There is a reason you didn't see Bron and KD crying after winning their first champship because the feeling of accomplishment wasn't earned. 2016 was earned, and that why you got raw emotion out of Bron. You'll get the same reaction from KD if he wins again without the Warriors. Jordan had all the ups and downs, all the losses and wins, all the stats and trophies.
@@vonc5 Nope now you are trying to change the criteria to fit whomever your guy is. it doesnt work that way. Goat criteria isn't MJ career, but MJ is the standard because he checks ALL the boxes! offense, defense, accolades, closing mentality, Highest player efficiency in NBA History,
Great achievement for playing 20+ seasons. One thing that has never changed is for any professional sports league, we play the game to win the ultimate prize, the championship!
The part they’re missing is he played at this level and above for the longevity. It’s not just years. Also being one of one in several stat categories instead of team and coaching.
Kareem won three straight high school championships, he won three college championships at UCLA and he won six NBA titles that’s 12 right there. I didn’t look up any Olympic or international games.
Kareem didn't have any Olympic or International games that I'm aware of. But here's a breakdown of his championship wins/losses along with MJ and LBJ since they are mentioned. MICHAEL JORDAN's record: 12-0 (100% success rate) --won 1 NCAA championship --won 6 NBA Finals --won 2 Olympic gold medals --won 2 FIBA gold medals --won 1 International championship KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR’s (Lew Alcindor) record: 12-4 (75% success rate) --won 3 High school championships --won 3 NCAA championships --won 6 NBA Finals --lost 4 NBA Finals LEBRON JAMES's record: 10-9 (53% success rate) --won 3 High school championships --won 4 NBA Finals --won 2 Olympic gold medals --won 1 FIBA gold medal --lost 1 High school championship --lost 6 NBA Finals --lost 1 Olympics --lost 1 International championship
Let's not forget, Jordan played in an Era with actual defense. The current NBA commissioner has even stated publicly that rules were changed to increase scoring.
It has to matter some or else stats just don’t matter lol. Like if two players have very similar resumes but one player played much longer and he holds records no one else does then that has to be factor in to some degree or why else bother keeping stats.
He can get 50k points, doesn't really matter. Stockton's got like 5,000 more assists than Magic, that does not make him the GOAT PG or the GOAT assists guy.
people forgotten that Michael Jordan did play basketball in college and won championship. He also was the last college player that won an Olympic gold. Lebron will ever never got a snip of what it's like as an NCAA champion. All the points and accolades that MJ achieved in college does not count for his NBA career. Emmit Smith hold the all time rushing yards. Is he the great RB of all time?
Lebron might have the most points of all time….but he also has the most turnovers of all time BY A LONG WAY, and is real close to having the record for most missed shots of all time (if he doesn’t have the record already, he will within 10-15 more games…depending on stat source)…he’s lost the most playoff games in nba history…and despite the number of seasons he’s played, he’s only played in 80+ games in a season 3 times; MJ played in 80+ games 11 times.
Let’s not forget that when Jordan was scoring the floor was much smaller since most of the points came from the paint and mid range. LeBron has had the luxury of spacing for most of his career making scoring much easier. Not many people talk about that.
To say that it doesn't move the needle is to say that prolonged excellence doesn't matter *at all*. If it matters even a little bit, then of course it moves the needle.
LeBron's over 700 FGM behind Kareem, therefore LeBron is still not the NBA's leading scorer. He is the "King" of Turnovers however. Owning the All-time record for most Turnovers with 6258. Meanwhile Kareem has 3 NCAA titles, 3 NCAA Naismith awards., 6 NBA titles and a record 6 NBA MVP's. LeBron is still well behind Jabbar in the GOAT debate for anyone who can count.
This is a prime example of people will say any and everything to discredit LBJ. The man has the most POINTS in NBA history. Points are not FGM. By your logic, he took less shots but still scored more points. Points bro, points.
@@ValiantVisions314Points are not what we go by because the old school players did not receive 3 points for a jump shot like the modern players do. We compare FGM to determine who scored the most buckets. I'm not just "Saying Anything" to discredit LeBron, his turnovers and lack of NCAA stats are facts that cannot be denied or overlooked. (HARD FACTS BRUH)
Well, it's not really moving it. It's just listing all of his championships/gold medals and Rob actually missed one but it's all good. LeBron has won some gold medals too but he does have those 2 bronze medals. Those count as an L (gold or nothing). Kareem didn't get to play for a gold medal but he has won a few NCAA championships.
Rob talking to the Titan fan and wishing him good luck (genuinely) made me LAUGH OUT LOUD I am not always a Rob fan but to hear him talk to the fan like a normal casual talk and still give his opinion but still be respectful to the guy and his team. Definitely a point in my book for Rob I would approach him and say hello now haha! Be more respectful to my man Chris come on! 😅
No stat Bron attains will move the needle. He's never had a shot at the GOAT throne. His poor fundamentals, weak mentality...along with bad footwork, no post game....& his refusal to play defense. His game has too many holes to be considered the GOAT.
But he lost 1 ......1....which makes his grade score a 98..but Jordan is 6-0 which according to the grade scale is a 💯... Perfect score.... perfect!!!....
Man stop it. there were only 8-10 Teams in the NBA, and the Celtics had the monopoly on the best players. ANNDDD they were actually playing against plumbers and fireman, etc.. that's why no has Russell in the conversation. It's more for what he respresented socially during that era. He wasn't even the best player on the team. It was Bob Couzy.
I've been saying for years that LeBron is the modern day Wilt Chamberlain. Winning is the ultimate goal in any sport. Statistically, Tim Duncan isn't the greatest PF, but he's celebrated as the best at his position because his impact on winning.
No. Lebum keeps beaking recorda that no one cares about while his team still loses. 😂😂😂😂 MJ is the GOAT now and forever. Lebum could play for 10 more years and he still won't catch MJ!

No. And no other player will ever give a damn about pursuing that record. Ask any player would they rather have 6 rings, 6 Finals MVP’s, 5 regular season MVP’s and 32K points vs Lebron’s 40K and sparsely spread out championships and MVP’s(none since age 28).

MJ even retired twice in his prime..... let that sink in kid...
Allen took DMV test and scored perfect 100 pts to get his license. Bob took his first DMV test and scored only 65. He worked hard on it next time to score 85 for his license and a total of 65 + 85 = 150 pts. So Bob began talking, "Look, Allen might be a perfect driver but I'm the all time DMV scoring champ."
Playing longer than one does not make you better. Playing better than one does it.
I 💯 agree with you and this is what bron fans don't seem to understand

Since he played in the nba

@@fresh_printzmid range to freethrow alone.
Lol ain’t no way Bron running up 43k without heavy PED allegations 😂😂😂
Well the allegations were obviously always coming. The way the world is today you can't get around that. If MJ played today he would get the same allegations because of his insane ability,.
Jordan was electrifying to watch. Jordan did moves that was god like. That’s why he’s my goat. The rings was just the icing on the cake. I never watched a Lebron game and said wow what a play or did you see that move. Jordan would go up for a jump shot and the blocker jump late and Jordan would freeze time and still be in the air as the block came back to the ground. Jordan was called Black Jesus because Jordan could bend gravity. If it wasn’t for video you wouldn’t believe the stories about Jordan.
hell yeah
Kareem, Erving, Magic, Bird, and finally MJ. These are the men who built the modern NBA. LeBron is enjoying the fruits of that labour. He has not expanded the NBA at all. The players mentioned before did just that. Those are the GOATS
The longer LeBron goes without winning another chip the more his longevity will work against him
Wat u said makes no sense
when leBron won his 4th one nobody cared or thought it moved him closer to jordan at all. There’s nothing LeBron can do to pass jordan to jordan fans.
@@cheerioss-9121There’s nothing Lebron can do to pass Jordan to basketball fans, he’s only #2 for people who have only seen his generation play.
Nah. Once he was no longer in his prime imo that doesnt matter anymore. I'd say his last prime year was the championship year before injuries and age turned him into a still great player but no longer prime lebron. Just like I don't and no one should hold the fact mj didn't win rings on the wizards against him or shaq didn't win on the cavs or whoever you wanna pick. Anyone expecting lebron to win championships still and thinks anything less is a failure just is hating he of course wants to win but he's not at a point anymore where if he's not winning championships he's coming up short. Him just being a spectacular individual player is more then you could ask for from anyone his age and his amount of time in the league. The fact that some people still think that they have the ability to win and make a playoff run is just icing on the cake at his age.
So bill Russell is the goat then
This debate is so tiresome. 10 years after Bron retires, he'll barely crack the Top 10. Right now, he's just fresh on people's minds.
Just as long as his PED supply doesn't run dry. 😆
5 years down the line we will 'discover' that he was juiced up😅

No....
LeGM has played over 400+ more games. If MJ choose to not retire & played even within 100 games of Lebron he'd have over 42k points. Lebron's 40k point achievement just strengthens his longevity, but he already has the greatest longevity career ever. He's also benefited from the era, lack of defense, rules that protect stars, better training/nutrition, rarely playing back to back games & the elephant in the room = a decade + of PED use. LeGm is so desperate that it tells you even he knows he hasn't surpassed MJ's legacy. His need to continually bring it up shows how insecure he is about it. MJ never says a word because he doesn't care & he knows his legacy/is perfectly satisfied with that legacy. Period, end of story.
What is that clown at 14:30 talking about??
Lebron has 29,041 FGA's All-Time (w/ the most misses ever)
Jordan only had 24,537 FGA's All-Time.

hell never be the goat., this debate ends in 2011 when a 2x mvp, a player on his prime teaming up with a top 75 player and an all star but couldnt win. how can you get outscored by a 33 years old bench player lol
It ain't even close between Jordan and Lebron. Lebron might be #3 behind Kareem. Nothing wrong with that.
That callers argument was a great one!! Don’t laugh it off like you don’t recognize HAHA. He took the same amount of shot attempts in SIX more years. Not saying he’s better but that is impressive
LeBalco
If being an all time leader in major categories makes your the goat regardless of epic playoff meltdowns, then John Stockton is the best point guard of all time and Karl Malone is the third best player of all time.
If the fact his longevity has made him the all time turnover leader, on the verge of most missed shots in nba history, most playoff losses, most finals losses…don’t count in the goat debate then his positive longevity stats don’t either.
Longevity records need more scrutiny after Garnetts comments
Chris ‘I’m a voter’ Brousaaaaad
40k is a great achievement but come on, Jordan played like 15 years and played in a tougher era. LeBron cannot catch up to Jordan, Magic, Kobe or Duncan. I cannot stand this new play in tournament and I think Adam Silver James has been trying to help the Lakers but they’re still in 9th place. Jordan played in an era where the playoffs had 1st-8th seed only.
It was tougher because of Hard fouls and hand checking was legal. Lebron would have a Lot harder time driving to the hoop when Dennis Rodman is pushing him with one hand the whole way.
Also there were a lot less 3s so the court was less spread. Easier help defense.
You know it's still 1st vs 8th seed in the playoffs ain't nothing changed right they just added the play in tournament to get more interest
Same boring conversation lol
This is the biggest achievement of Lebron because this record is going to be his for a long long long long time but for the GOAT debate doesn't do anything a new ring would maybe mean something
“maybe” this why you can’t even take jordan fans seriously 😂
@@cheerioss-9121 yes 'maybe'. Because if the Lakers were to win a chip AD would have to be the best player on the team.

Nobody else won 10 Scoring titles and 6 MVPs while averaging 31ppg. 🙏🏾
he has the most shoes tied jersey's put on and he averages the most flops and balls dribbled too what a generational talent
Ironically, LeBron and his fans constantly pushing this GOAT argument only causes people to not appreciate these kinds of milestones and achievements. We would root for him more if he wasn't unrealistic with his expectations-what's wrong with being a universal top 3/5 player? You didn't peak as hard as MJ did, no one has except for him. He earned the GOAT label.
There is absolutely nothing that he can do to eclipse Jordan. He can play until 50 and score 50,000 points, and it won't matter to the majority. As a matter of fact, each year that passes, hurts his case.
STOOOOOOOOOOOOP IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT with the goat conversation!!!! ure having it every 3 days

That Rob Parker stat of MJ is 11 out of 11 in every final he was in
how about 9 times scoring titles, 9 times defensive titles and 6 rings, in less in 14 seasons, what are we talking about here, GOAT MJ
He can get to 50K and play 30 seasons if he has 4 rings its make it worse
nonsensical
Exactly
At the rate players are scoring today with the 3 point shot, I wouldn't be surprised if someone else surpasses 40,000 points in the next 5 to 10 years. But no, Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T hands-down. Lebron is a top 5.
MJ is the Goat....you right the way today are scoring Luka could get aleast 30,000 and I would say Anthony Edwards could get 35,000 the way he been scoring and it's only his 4th season averaging almost 30
Joe, Montana Peak was better than Tom Brady’s Peak, but y'all gave Brady the GOAT status partly because of his longevity
As they mention all the time, what really matters is peak performance.
When we talk about the GOAT we are talking about who reached the highest level of play, no matter what the sport is.
For an extreme example, if you had a guy go in 100 meter sprint for 9 second once and some other dude average 9.3 for 40 times.
What would people care about more? Obviously the faster dude
Good luck accurately measuring a peak in a team sport....too many people don't recognize this is why there can never be a debate. MJ did not win those chips alone and Lebron didnt score 40k alone on the court. It's a team game...smh

Finals loses.... LeBron has lost 6 championship series of 9. (No bubbles) jordan has twice as many championship series wins and zero championship loses of 6. No debate.
The fact that Jordan was so wildly popular worldwide with only newspaper/cable tv is crazy. Its hard for the younger kids today to understand how big MJ’s impact was. The Last Dance showed a glimpse of it and his still ridiculously popular Jordan brand does as well.
“Phenomenal basketball” is egregious.
10 scoring titles > 40k total points
I'm sorry Lebron is not the GOAT, I half to agree the last dance did open the younger generation's eyes, I never watched Michael Jordan play with the bulls, but I sure as hell got some insight to what a champion he was.

Why not?
@@Avarice-Zero He’s flawed like every other player. Let’s not only highlight his achievements when there are multiple players that have achievements that are just as impressive if we’re looking objectively.
@vonc5 True. But the reason his career has been looked at as the criteria is due to the flaws, the failures, achievements, accolades, losses, and wins. He has stats and trophies to go along with the storybook grind from the bottom to the top. He didn't take shortcuts to victories. There is a reason you didn't see Bron and KD crying after winning their first champship because the feeling of accomplishment wasn't earned. 2016 was earned, and that why you got raw emotion out of Bron. You'll get the same reaction from KD if he wins again without the Warriors. Jordan had all the ups and downs, all the losses and wins, all the stats and trophies.
@@vonc5 Nope now you are trying to change the criteria to fit whomever your guy is. it doesnt work that way. Goat criteria isn't MJ career, but MJ is the standard because he checks ALL the boxes! offense, defense, accolades, closing mentality, Highest player efficiency in NBA History,

Great achievement for playing 20+ seasons. One thing that has never changed is for any professional sports league, we play the game to win the ultimate prize, the championship!
The part they’re missing is he played at this level and above for the longevity. It’s not just years. Also being one of one in several stat categories instead of team and coaching.
Kareem won three straight high school championships, he won three college championships at UCLA and he won six NBA titles that’s 12 right there. I didn’t look up any Olympic or international games.

The real question is why are media folk afraid to just be plain and blut about Lebron.. but choose to soften the ground when criticizing him.
LBJ will end his career as No 1 all time in missed shots, FGs missed😅 Can’t wait how they argue that with “he beat Kareem’s record so he the Goat” 😂
Lebron has lost as many finals as Jordan has won. There never was a debate, it's Lemedia propaganda.
Let's not forget, Jordan played in an Era with actual defense. The current NBA commissioner has even stated publicly that rules were changed to increase scoring.
It has to matter some or else stats just don’t matter lol. Like if two players have very similar resumes but one player played much longer and he holds records no one else does then that has to be factor in to some degree or why else bother keeping stats.
Michael took 3 more shots per game than Lebron, But Lebron took 5000 more 3s than Jordan. So it’s damn if you do, damn if you don’t…
He can get 50k points, doesn't really matter. Stockton's got like 5,000 more assists than Magic, that does not make him the GOAT PG or the GOAT assists guy.
This debate will never die lol it’s like every day now lol
people forgotten that Michael Jordan did play basketball in college and won championship. He also was the last college player that won an Olympic gold. Lebron will ever never got a snip of what it's like as an NCAA champion. All the points and accolades that MJ achieved in college does not count for his NBA career. Emmit Smith hold the all time rushing yards. Is he the great RB of all time?
Lebron might have the most points of all time….but he also has the most turnovers of all time BY A LONG WAY, and is real close to having the record for most missed shots of all time (if he doesn’t have the record already, he will within 10-15 more games…depending on stat source)…he’s lost the most playoff games in nba history…and despite the number of seasons he’s played, he’s only played in 80+ games in a season 3 times; MJ played in 80+ games 11 times.
NO WAY NO HOW
Let’s not forget that when Jordan was scoring the floor was much smaller since most of the points came from the paint and mid range. LeBron has had the luxury of spacing for most of his career making scoring much easier. Not many people talk about that.
To say that it doesn't move the needle is to say that prolonged excellence doesn't matter *at all*. If it matters even a little bit, then of course it moves the needle.
Lebron is also the all time turnover leader and he keeps raising that bar every game too!
LeBron's over 700 FGM behind Kareem, therefore LeBron is still not the NBA's leading scorer. He is the "King" of Turnovers however. Owning the All-time record for most Turnovers with 6258. Meanwhile Kareem has 3 NCAA titles, 3 NCAA Naismith awards., 6 NBA titles and a record 6 NBA MVP's. LeBron is still well behind Jabbar in the GOAT debate for anyone who can count.
This is a prime example of people will say any and everything to discredit LBJ. The man has the most POINTS in NBA history. Points are not FGM. By your logic, he took less shots but still scored more points. Points bro, points.
@@ValiantVisions314Points are not what we go by because the old school players did not receive 3 points for a jump shot like the modern players do.

No stat Bron attains will move the needle. He's never had a shot at the GOAT throne. His poor fundamentals, weak mentality...along with bad footwork, no post game....& his refusal to play defense. His game has too many holes to be considered the GOAT.
If it’s peak over longevity Bill Russell win 11 championships in 12 trips to the finals.
But he lost 1 ......1....which makes his grade score a 98..but Jordan is 6-0 which according to the grade scale is a 💯... Perfect score.... perfect!!!....
Man stop it. there were only 8-10 Teams in the NBA, and the Celtics had the monopoly on the best players.
