Jordan was obviously a great player, but hyped more than any athlete in history and the his championships were won in an expansion era with no other good teams.

What's the best team he ever beat in a series?

Factoring in health, I'd say the '98 Pacers, who they *barely* got by in 1998 after Pippen was allowed to completely mug the shit out of your coach up and down the floor.

PEDs or no, LeBron has it all.

There's no way to justifiably discount a 72 win season - whack jack 2013-02-13 01:44:47 (23 views)

I'm not saying the Bulls or Jordan weren't great, my problem in this thread is that I know hoops - buzz 2013-02-13 01:46:56 (81 views)

right...Jordan is a complete asshole, Lebron is a sweet guy. Makes a difference on the battlefield. - whack jack 2013-02-13 01:10:59 (30 views)

ha, yea with the asshole persona, LBJ couldn't pull it off against the Mavs - raiderjohn 2013-02-13 12:55:27 (13 views)

It isn't genetic as much as dietary (including peds) - 9finga 2013-02-13 03:37:29 (18 views)

Actually, physically yes, but in terms of in game physicals, No. Nowadays, a simply poke is a foul. - endlessraine 2013-02-13 00:34:13 (23 views)

The only real good argument I heard for Jordan in these threads was that... - buzz 2013-02-13 00:21:31 (88 views)

I'm not so old. I only really saw Jordan from the early 90's onward. - whack jack 2013-02-13 01:06:02 (44 views)

what defies an Athlete for you? - endlessraine 2013-02-13 00:13:04 (22 views)

the same as everyone else...jumping, running, power, quickness...physical traits - whack jack 2013-02-13 01:07:37 (24 views)

Real Question: Karl Malone or Lebron James? Imagine mailman in this era of basketball. - endlessraine 2013-02-13 00:04:38 (31 views)

This is a down year, but you honestly think the 90s weren't as well? - buzz 2013-02-13 00:10:11 (33 views)

I duno. Something about the 90s gives me a feeling that it was more physical. Everyone were more - endlessraine 2013-02-13 00:12:26 (46 views)

They are the same size, but Lebron can play 4 positions. - whack jack 2013-02-13 00:06:39 (25 views)

crazy skills.. - The prodigy 2013-02-13 00:08:07 (20 views)

Bill Lambeer & Charles Oakley would barrage him with hard fouls. - The prodigy 2013-02-13 00:00:39 (31 views)

Pippen would shut down Lebron twice as much as Marion made him look foolish in finals - Warriors in 2014 2013-02-13 00:00:38 (56 views)

Team defenses are far superior now - buzz 2013-02-13 00:14:23 (59 views)

Jordan would've beat him... that's gotta count for something. - willy d 2013-02-12 23:59:23 (29 views)

It's just a different approach to the question - willy d 2013-02-13 10:48:11 (23 views)

Except defense and offense. - lawless foo 2013-02-12 23:56:49 (21 views)

Nobody took over a game like Jordan - Faceless 2013-02-12 23:49:49 (24 views)

And Lebron went 5 games without a whistle. So yeah. - Nuck Chorris 2013-02-13 09:39:20 (12 views)
