May 15, 201511 yr Back in the day Jordan would CRUSH James now, Jordan is in his 50's. I couldn't see him stopping LBJ but I couldn't see LBJ stopping Jordan if his shot is on. He may beat James but crush ain't happening. MJ may very well be the best ever but there is no doubt people give him way more credit the more time passes.
May 16, 201511 yr Can't agree with LBJ being quicker that MJ...bigger and stronger for sure and more of an "athletic freak" of nature no doubt. With that said, MJ's athleticism or raw basketball skill isn't what made many people think him the GOAT. MJ had a burning desire to both beat his opponent AND an equally hot burning desire to NOT lose. He had quite possibly the fiercest competitive desire ever, and it's something the LBJ has shown he just can't match, IMO anyway. Back in the day Jordan would CRUSH James now, Jordan is in his 50's. I couldn't see him stopping LBJ but I couldn't see LBJ stopping Jordan if his shot is on. MJ never in his life faced a player like LBJ. MJ would lose.
May 16, 201511 yr He may beat James but crush ain't happening. MJ may very well be the best ever but there is no doubt people give him way more credit the more time passes. People act like he can never be beaten by anyone. I think he'd have a hard time beating Kobe one-on-one.
May 16, 201511 yr I'll take MJ in his prime over anyone. Go watch YouTube and refresh your memories. Jordan was unstoppable.
May 16, 201511 yr You all are just crazy if you think Jordan isn't good and wouldn't beat LBJ... Who said he wasn't any good?
May 16, 201511 yr I think that back in the Day when Jordan was in his prime, he would beat LBJ... I thought it was stupid when James first came out of high school and people were already saying he was better than Jordan...I think that he will NEVER be Jordan...the only thing that James has got that Jordan don't is that James got his first title faster than Jordan. that's it... This is why I don't like LBJ...He was all hype coming out of high school, He's good/great, I agree but he's not God and people act/try to make him out to be God....That's why I do not like LBJ...

You don't like him because he legitimately threatens to take MJ's fictional GOAT tag. :lol2: :lol2:
May 16, 201511 yr Nah...I don't like him because people made him out to be GOD when he came out of high school...Mister can do it all...type player....

Jordan was unstoppable. MJ never faced anyone like LBJ or Kobe ever in his career. I'm not just going to hand over a victory to MJ just because like the rest of Jordan fanboys are willing to do. :lol2:
May 16, 201511 yr Nah...I don't like him because people made him out to be GOD when he came out of high school...Mister can do it all...type player.... You mean like how people still make MJ out to be? Keep in mind this thread was started because 34% of the country think a fat, drunk and out of shape, 52 year old MJ can beat a 30 year old LBJ. :lol2: Who do folks really think is GOD????? Lebron does do it all though......
May 16, 201511 yr Jordan played against Kobe..... Not in their primes. MJ was on his way out and Kobe was on his way in. Give me 81 point Kobe vs. 93 MJ. That's those two at their best.

Lebron does do it all though...... How many times has LBJ choked before he finally got his first title? How do you know Jordan is fat and lazy and blah blah blah, are you with him 24 hours a day or something? Not in their primes. MJ was on his way out and Kobe was on his way in. Give me 81 point Kobe vs. 93 MJ. That's those two at their best. Don't matter, they still played. Kobe is on his way out now and it won't be long til LBJ is gone...
May 16, 201511 yr Jordan might not be James now but back in his prime, he most certainly would... I'll just let this do the rest of my talking... LeBron James vs. Michael Jordan Comparison:
