This is the kind of thing that will work in LeBrons favor over Jordan. His prime years in Miami will never eclipse Jordans in Chicago. But the longevity of his career, the records he’s setting in all categories and the skill/athleticism he has for his age is extraordinary. If he manages to get another ring then I think we are going to see a legitimate new argument for what it means to be the GOAT.
What’s more important? A players Prime or his overall Career?

SAS needs to just stop talking down to Kellerman. I mean, the first and last sentence out his mouth in this clip is a condescending comment. Hate to say it, but, this programme works much better when someone who clearly isnโt intimidated by Smith, gives it as good as he gets it. You know who Iโm talking about…

I’ve not ranked him #1 GOAT. Bron is my current #2 GOAT behind MJ.
BUT, BRON has an incredible IQ doubled with the best knowledge of the game I’ve ever seen. Extremely versatile.

LeBron IS NOT A FINESSE PLAYER. When they compared MJ to LeBron, SAS said EXACTLY THE SAME THING ABOUT MIKE and said LeBron ISNT a finesse player. Make up your mind SAS ????????????????????????????

I have to say… Lebron’s jump-shot has improved. I remember the 2007 Finals where Popovich’s defensive scheme was to clog the paint and force Lebron to score from the outside in which his weakness was exposed. Popovich did the same thing in 2013 where the Spurs dared him to shoot, but the result was different. Normally, if Lebron had an open look or a defender would give that shot from the perimeter, he would take it, but now he looks for that shot on a daily basis. On that note, Giannis now finds himself in Lebron’s shoes where he can physically bully his way to the rim at will, but the question that still looms is whether or not he can develop that jump-shot. In my opinion, Giannis not only needs a jump-shot but he could also use better footwork. For instance, Kobe, in the early stages of his career, was athletic and explosive, and as he grew older and more youth started to come into the league, he didn’t have that same agility, but he was still able to adjust to his skillset & footwork that made him one of the best players/scorers in the game. Not to mention, he started to attempt more 3’s than usual that made him even more lethal.
