MJ fans believe Jordan’s Finals appearances make him the GOAT over LeBron.
Meanwhile, MJ had better teams and weaker opponents, which shows in the fact his odds to win were 4 points higher, on average.
Once again, MJ has a lower bar to clear, one that’s treated as equal.
We all know that LeBron James was the greatest choking loser ever. OBVIOUSLY.
But did you know his head coach at ages 40-41 has the greatest record for head coaches with a lead at halftime…ever?
AND JJ did it with the biggest choking idiot EVER?
JJ must be INCREDIBLE.
Jordan at age 39…

“Jordan has also retarded the growth of this team.”
“It was all about Mike.”
“Hopefully his ego and itch has been pacified.”
“The Jordan burnout factor is at a premium.”
“A new chapter is…definitely needed for the Wizards and the league.”
Sounds like a GOAT to me!
Hey look everyone!
I’ve “ruined sports” for “so many people.”
My little account has ruined baseball and football and basketball for TONS of people!
I’m so proud. Simply applying the old head standards to other eras has “ruined sports” for them.
Sad.

All you do is apply your sociopath logic. you’ve ruined sports for so many people, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Old Heads: “I hate this. This league is SO soft. Did you ever see Michael Jordan tear up over a teammate injury? NO. Man up. In our day, if someone had soft bones, we’d just kick them off the team. No mercy. We were TOUGH. Not like this crying pussy. I HATE the NBA now.”
In the last couple games, Lebron cleared a combined 73,485 minutes across playoffs and regular season games.
That’s 25,000 more minutes than Jordan played.
The equivalent of Kawhi’s entire regular season career.
What’s the narrative? Oh yeah…Jordan worked harder.
🤦♂️
I was told Scottie Pippen had to be “made” by MJ, and wasn’t even good in 1988.
Here’s the LA Times on November 3, 1987:
“Then there is Pippen’s growing stature as a star of the future and possible equal.”
Equal to JORDAN.
A week into his career.
When do the lies stop?
Bronny James makes the Laker squad and, of course, gets the following from Laker fans, per Twitter:
They don’t have the “guts” to cut him
Bronny is toxic
Bronny is the worst draft pick ever (only Laker draft pick in the last 10 yrs with the team)
Stay classy, Kobe fans.
This should disqualify Jordan from being the GOAT, right?
A one-time champion head coach was the “biggest star” in Chicago.
Doesn’t this undo all the “Jordan had the biggest aura” arguments?
Imagine if people said LeBron was a lesser star than Sean McVay.
"He was larger than life. ... Michael Jordan was a global icon and certainly beloved in Chicago, but Mike Ditka was the biggest star in Chicago sports."
@Espngreeny explains how much of an impact Mike Ditka had on the city of Chicago 🙌

Larry Bird gets a free pass for his “chokes.”
He lost game 7 in 1982 vs the Sixers.
Here’s what Dick Stockton said on the broadcast before it started. Nobody thought Boston would lose.
This is how Bird is treated hypothetically. He’d always win.
Reality was different.
I was told all Michael Jordan cared about winning.
Winning, winning, winning.
Except, of course, when Michael Jordan actually said “winning isn’t always about championships.”
Can you imagine if LeBron said this? It’d be referenced on Twitter every hour for 30 years.
As you watch LeBron play his 24th preseason…compare his competitiveness to Jordan.
Do you remember when the “greatest competitor ever” who “loved basketball” said he wasn’t going to training camp because he was too tired?
I thought athletes in their prime didn’t get tired?
