    lebron couldnt even wipe mj's azz

    First of all, lebron runs from the ball in crunch time. That right there means he comes nowhere close to Jordan. Jordan had the killer instinct to rip hearts out with his game winning shots. Another thing, lebron has been too 3 nba finals and lost 2. When mj went to the finals, he didn't lose. Jordan avg 37 a game in 87-88. Jordan didn't recruit players to play with him. Da bulls built everything thru the draft unlike lebron, wade and bosh teaming up thru free agency. I can go on all day about how lebron isn't in mj's league. Once mike won his first ring, he never lost again. He's got 6 and remember something else. If he didn't take 2 years off, da bulls woulda won 8. Unbelievable that these dumb fukks can think lebron is better than mj. There was only 1 player better than mike. Wilt chamberlain. that's it.

    Bill Russell was a five time league MVP, was a 12 time All Star (he only played 13 seasons) won 11 NBA rings in his 13 seasons.
    Think about that, he played 13 seasons, won 11 NBA rings.
    Think about this too, before going to the NBA he led his college team (USF) to back to back NCAA championships.
    In between winning 2 NCAA rings and 11 NBA rings, he led USA to a gold medal in the Olympics, that was when pros weren't allowed to play in the Olympics.

    For his career, Russell averaged 22 1/2 rebounds a game, every game, from rookie season to last season.
    22+ rebounds a game ! Every night ! He wasn't a physical freak like Wilt, he was 'only' 6 foot 9 inches.

    Russell was to NBA defense what LT was to NFL defense. Redefined it.

    Wilt got the accolades, Russell got the rings.

    Wasn't Russell as good as Wilt or MJ?

    .


    Nash, Russell was one of the best but was not as good as wilt or Jordan. Russell won all those rings but there were only 8 nba teams in the whole league at that time.( I believe that was around 1960 when the celts went on that run). Wilt averaged crazy numbers. One year he averaged something crazy like 50 pts and 25 boards. He put up unbeleivable numbers consistantly. They even had to change the rules of the game because of wilt. I can go on forever about him too. If there were 8 or 9 teams total in the nba when mj was there, he woulda won it every single year instead of just half the years he was there. You are right though, Russell was very good, but defenitely not as good as mj and wilt.

    It's funny how most Jordan supporters pick the wrong path to argue but they're still right anyway.

    i think Russel is better than Wilt. Wilt was just a freak at the time that was so much taller than everyone of course he could do anything he wanted. Locksmith you are correct IMO though MJ did things that Lebron cant do. LJ has more career to go but a lot of work to do if he ever wants to be better than MJ

    I would put MJ somewhere around 6th or 7th all time.
    He was great for sure but he also played during the era
    where super-stardom was being promoted as a marketing tool.
    Also, he was never challenged as physically as the old battle
    axes were. I don't think he had the strength to be the same
    level of star if he played 10 years earlier when the refs would
    allow more.
    I also do not believe the comparisons with Lebron are off-base.
    LeBron is superior to MJ in some ways.

    Kobe and MJ failed before they started winning rings.

    What if Lebron rips off a string of championships? He is the best player on the best team.

    LeBron is bigger and he averages more rebounds and assists because he likes to pass the ball instead of taking critical shots. LeBron plays in a different era where its even harder to win...its hard as hell to win the East recently with all the monster teams. LeBron plays the game for fun, he doesn't have the competitive drive of MJ or the killer instinct.... he just likes to have fun. LeBron crapped himself after letting Cleveland down so long, but he is knows how to be the man and he knew to save face and go to hot spot Miami and join his buddy Wade plus company so he could get a ring or 2 and be seen as a legit top 5, top 10 or whatever. LeBron will also play more seasons and have more total stats than MJ... so of course that makes him better too.

    LeBron is more artistic with his dunks and moves on the court, more fluid... he doesn't just do the same break away dunk 9 out of 10 times.

    Its not funny to poke fun at the man just because he was good enough to get through a tough East but then get swept away out of the Finals looking a fool.

    Topmoron, the east is more difficult now? Are you crazy? Jordan had to go thru the champion pistons. Larrys celts. Those 2 teams right there are better than the whole current east conference. Then you had the cavs with a spectacular squad. Dominique and the hawks. The knicks with a tough front line. You really are a moron. Mj had to go thru a shyt load of hall of famers year in and year out
