Michael Jordan vs Kobe Bryant vs Lebron James - Who Is The Greatest

[Ratzz]

I would respectfully ask that you please refrain from including Kobe's name in any sentence that includes Lebron and Jordan..the two have virtually nothing to do with the other...let the cookie monster explain...

LOL... Menses

i mean a real one.. i laughed out loud after the first sentence. If the Cavs go on to win, Kobe is officially a nobody.
Kobe could never bring TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT squads to the Finals... EVER..

and to get the Ring over Boston.. he needed Perkins (Center) to be out for Game 7,
AND to be awarded 20 FTs in the 4th Qtr alone..

he needed a healthy squad vs. an incomplete opponent

this thread must have been started by a Kobetard, looking to group those three names..
they won't be making vids like that for much longer of the Cavs pull it out

[Ra77er]

8.5 is the true APG vs 5.5 LePrawns.

[GT21Megatron]

Lebron is Jordan 2.0

Jordan was the original, the guy that could drop 50, hit a game winner and be a lockdown defender

Lebron does those things as well + rebound and he can do it all positions

Jordan more efficient, Lebron more dominant

Disagree. Jordan would never allow his team to score two points in OT of an NBA final game like game 1.....only reason Cavs got those two points was because they let Lebron get the layup with 13 seconds left....no damn excuse for that. Jordan was the most dominant player I have ever seen especially in crunch time and I am not a Jordan fan at all. Like Kobe. He took games completely over. This show Lebron is putting on thus far is impressive for sure but Kerr needs to make a phone call to Popavich because he has no earthly clue of how to defend Lebron and has made zero adjustments.....at all....If I had too win one game when it matters i'm taking Jordan and Kobe before Lebron without even blinking is all I'm saying...

[Goat Milk]

Inflated stats.



You guys are the best.

Did you watch basketball in the 60s and 70s? I take it you didn't so let me explain to you.

Back in those times, there was very little set plays. There really was hardly such thing. Most of the time guys would grab a board, dribble up the court, chuck up a shot, and the process would repeat. It was rare to see people slow the game down, run sets, use time, tempo, etc. The pace was ridiculously fast. Fast pace = more shot attempts. More shot attempts = more points, more rebounds, more assist, etc. So many things you do not understand. Do you know how much guys used to just camp out in the lane to grab boards? You can't do that shit these days. 3 sec violation.

Please, go back and watch Bill Russel play and tell me that man in the greatest basketball player ever. And watch full games. At least 10 of them. And then report back here and tell me he's better than Jordan Bryant Lebron or Magic.

You want to go to war with me? You better come prepared son.

Lebron, Kobe and Jordan would be scoring 80 a game if they were playing back in the 60s and 70s with all those Unathletic fuks....get real

i believe another thread covered this.

Jordan never took a team to the Finals in his first year.
When MJ left the Bulls they went to Game 7 of the Conference Finals.

When LeBron leaves a team, they miss the playoffs altogether.
or they are so upset, they set their own city on fire. or both..

did Miami go to the Conference Finals?
did Jordan ever play in the Finals without Pippen?

[frostno98]

No one tops MJ, but if Lebron pulls this off he will be sitting right by his side. Winning it all with the Cavs, a team that just won at little over 20 games just last year is flat out amazing, and then to top it off with Love and Irving out. Also going to 5 straight NBA finals is still quite a feat.

I also think that Jordan probably would of won 7-8 NBA finals if he didn't retire early.

Jordan never had to leave Chicago and join two all stars to get his rings....He turned his back on Cleveland because it was two hard with what he had in Cleveland at the time. Goes and recruits Wade and Bosh and they win. Yea no shit....Jordan never did that. The team that made the finals after Jordan left had already won how many in a row? Jordan made Pippen. You throw Pippen on any other squad and nobody even knows who he is. Difference is Lebron chases his rings....Jordan didn't

lol what? scottie pippen was named one of the 50 greatest players. what are you smoking?

[Ghenghis Kahn]

lebron james is almost averaging triple double in this finals only guy with similar stats is shaq. if shaq wasn't so lazy, didn't gain all that weight, and practiced some fts, he'd be the greatest player ever.

[GT21Megatron]

I know what he is....if he wasn't with Jordan he wouldn't be. What's hard to understand about that?

Hold on, are you telling me you were born before the 1960s?

[Ghenghis Kahn]

he was a talented player, both offense and defense. jordan didn't make him.

Talented and reaped the benefits of playing side be side of the best ever. I mean come on. He left Chicago and barely was averaging 13 points a game. If your the second best player on the team side by side of the best who won 6 rings then he's gonna be top 50 bro

lol what? the guy was 35 years old when he went to portland. wtf is wrong with you?

[raiders72001]

Tough to overlook LeBron's loss to Dallas in the finals. Brought over Bosh (26) to play with Wade (29) both in their prime. If he wins this one here it crosses that one out.

[Seaweed]

James is better now than ever

He matured to a man

[The Giant]

Lebron is playing with players that would be at the end of Michael Jordan's bench.......in North Carolina.

[Menses]

Lebron is Jordan 2.0

This is incorrect....Kobe is Jordan 2.0 except he is diet..and much like diet coke, it tasted awful..

Lebron is Oscar Robertson 2.0...God father II was a great sequel.....so is King James

My contact at the Justice Department has informed me that immediately following Game 3, most Kobetards were ushered into the NBA's witness relocation program...as there is a credible threat issued by Lebron and his legion of fans of permanently destroying whats left of Kobe's career by actually winning a ring with a worse supporting cast than Kobe ever had...the series is not over as of yet...but the source of the threat has proven reliable in the past and DOJ did not want to take any chances....Kobe himself is not even in the country....at the moment...

[Grits n' Gravy]

There is No player in NBA who could be put on Cavs roster in place of LeBron and take them to finals. He is too dominant when he decides that he has to be. Nobody in NBA history has ever had such a weak starting 4 around him so close to a title.

Same can be said about MJ in his prime.

Guys like TMac, Vince Carter, Paul Pierce could have replaced Kobe in LA in the Shaq years and made finals. In Kobe's post Shaq finals appearances I think Pierce and a young LeBron could've easily replaced Kobe.

So to me Kobe is a step behind MJ and LeBron. Plus Kobe is a snitch. Take your pick between those 2 for best non center of all time.
If Cavs win it all this season I'll put LeBron as #1.

Lebron bitched out, moved to south beach and brought two all stars with him to get his rings....fact....he comes back to Cleveland only if they bring in superior talent to make them relevant so insert Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love....without Kyrie and Love Cleveland wouldn't be in the finals....this has been 2 games now without both Love and Kyrie but everyone is acting like this has been all Lebron, all year....two games dude and it's not over yet

jesus fukking christ. not a kobe fan but replacing tmac, paul pierce, or vince carter for kobe and you'd have the same results? gtfoh.

kobe made 1st team all-defense 9 times. he's a fukking ball hog but he still played tough defense.

nobody carries this trash team other than lebron.. that being said, Im no basketball expert

one thing about jordan though, he didn't take rest days like the pussies of today...

[raiders72001]

All past their prime for the last ring Rodman (36), Harper (34), Jordan (34), Pippen (32). Jordan retired. He came back years later with Washington.

Kyrie (22), Love (26).

[raiders72001]

9 seasons played all 82 games.

[raiders72001]

After Jordan retired Pippen, Rodman and Kerr went to new teams. Here are their pts/gm with new team:

Pippen 14.5
Kerr 4.4
Rodman 2.1

Hold on, are you telling me you were born before the 1960s?

Exaclty my reaction

What??????

[TheMoneyShot]

Kobe Bryant just before the leg issue....... when didn't he come through?

I don't care about statistics. I care about rings. I care about heart. Kobe never took a night off. I don't care what anyone says.

Lebron.... he's been shut down in a few games... extremely poor shooting. He took his talents to South Beach. Fuk him. He quit.


So Lebron is having a hell of a playoff? Ok he is. But it doesn't matter. Kobe has achieved much more than he has. Lebron shuts himself down at times. Guy takes plays off... takes days off. Jordan never took games off and Kobe never did either. If you're talking 1,2,3.... no way you can just say Lebron is the BEST.
