I actually think the discussion should change based on how many times he's gone to the finals, with different teams, different players, different scenarios.Jordan won 6 championships. This has always been the default people go to when talking about GOAT. Jordan has championships, Lebron doesn't. Lebron now has 4... if he ties Jordan, does the discussion start to change?
Like the discussion of how the Lakers stunk until Lebron convinced Anthony Davis to pout and demand a trade to only the lakers?I actually think the discussion should change based on how many times he's gone to the finals, with different teams, different players, different scenarios.Jordan won 6 championships.

I think that's accurate. I think there were only two players that had what the killer drive. Kobe/Jordan, and that's about it.Lebron is probably more physical gifted, but lacked Jordan's superhuman drive to win.
imo, the necessity of the star players being grouped together is essential in this NBA generation. Can't really fault a guy for recognizing that.Like the discussion of how the Lakers stunk until Lebron convinced Anthony Davis to pout and demand a trade to only the lakers?I actually think the discussion should change based on how many times he's gone to the finals, with different teams, different players, different scenarios.Jordan won 6 championships.

How many championships would Jordan have if he negotiated trades for guys like Anthony Davis when times are toughLeBron might have had 8 if he had Rodman and Pippen. It is what it is, they're the 2 best ever. Comparing by # of championships is silly and lazy
Nah, Jordan would've just went to the Pistons after they kicked his ass. That's how current NBA works.How many championships would Jordan have if he negotiated trades for guys like Anthony Davis when times are toughLeBron might have had 8 if he had Rodman and Pippen.

did times ever get tough with the rosters he had?How many championships would Jordan have if he negotiated trades for guys like Anthony Davis when times are toughLeBron might have had 8 if he had Rodman and Pippen.

posted this in 2015: viewtopic.php?p=50337#p50337My gut feeling top 10 would be:
1. Jordan
2. Lebron
3. Bird
4. Russell
5. Magic
6. Wilt
7. Kareem
8. Hakeem
9. Oscar Robertson
10. Shaq
I have Kobe in 11-20
Also everyone but Lebron and Jordan are +/- 2 positions. They're all really close. I do think Lebron and Jordan are declaritively 1 and 2 though
