    Gotcha, so yall just bullshitting now. Got it, glad to know LeBron is only great because of longevity and passing the ball. Thanks for teaching me basketball old heads, I’m much more knowledgeable on the game now… literally the last time I’m watching a SAS segment until he retires. Done with this clown, as well as his two running mates.

    Right after LeBron lost the final in Miami, Jordan posted a video adding salt to the wound. Now you tell me he was protecting LeBron? Come on, this is a messy conversation.

    LeBron needs to not worry about what the talking heads say; he’s greatly revered and respected amount his peers and former players, that is really what matters.

    Too be honest, this is soft. Most people can’t take criticism at all. At what point is it ok to just not care about what people who can’t do what I do and their opinions at all

    The only celebration that will be had is that ppl will celebrate that he’s gone

    Honestly, what a compliment for LeBron to always be in this conversation.

    When LBJ retired he will be forgotten FAST, Y? because of that Guy in SAN ANTONIO.

    April 29, 2026 at 11:10 pm

    They’re both great. How about just appreciate watching them and leave it at that…smh. This is such a stupid topic

    Sorry the only person so insecure about being the GOAT is Lebron. We all know MJ is the real GOAT, he hasnt played over 20 years and hes still considered the favorite. Just unbelievable!!
