Lol…. U wild my man! U my Guy but you switch up more than I switch shoes. Next week will be something different 😅
Lebron play in a weak era
There is no defense
Jordan was in the NBA 1984, Jordan first championship was 1991 🤔 six and zero is false.
lol. so what did he really say here? LeBron the GOAT or not ?? lol
SA is exactly right – that’s how you judge who the goat is. And a lot of people are smoking Lebron in a life-on-the-line 1v1 match. Including Dirk 😂
If he feels like he's the goat then why won't he retire right now
Jordan rarely got mugged… they tried to mug LeBron every night and bruised people out of the way
GOAT of Longevity – LeBron*
*TUBE fed Wethered GOATS 🐐 can have a lifespan of 15-18. Some geriatric goats have been reported to live past the age of 20 with special vitamin injections.
GOATS are castrated, for a variety of reasons, including to make them better working goats, to reduce the risk of urinary calculi, and to improve the quality of their fleece and temperment.
I agree with him actually, Peak MJ is better but LeBron has been almost as good for a longer period of time.
The GOAT means who was the best at the game of the NBA. LeBron played 20 years all them stacks with 3 championships Lol stop the madness . We’re not counting that bubble gun championship Lol.
Steven A stay flip flopping
The goat has nothing to do with longevity lol it how dominating the player is when he was at his best LeBron was dominating after he won a championships. LeBron lost over over and over after he won a championship n he was sweep multiple times stop the madness

Yes he is the lance armstrong, the Barry bonds so to speak….. He is like roid… sorry…. Roids hm, hm
When are we going to criticize Jordan for not being able to sustain play for longer
Lebron can’t pass Jordan and Kobe now. For one, ITS TAKING TOO LONG, to surpass his fellow Top 4-5. Kobe and MJ won a lot more in less time. And have a better win record.Him possibly having another ring soon wouldn’t mean much compared to his counterparts. The time played category to ring wins are far out of sync. Also to factor in the amount of help he’s had in the totality of his career.
Don't think LeBron cares what loudmouth Stephen A has to say. He will change his mind in a heartbeat.
This dude just trying to rage bait people Lebron is has and will always be the true #1 GOAT
The GOAT debate is about primes. Always has been. Greats called MJ the GOAT before he had the rings. That's the ultimate respect because game recognize game. It's about being so good greats sit around the table and tell stories about your greatness. LBJ has solidified himself as a great and in his case his longevity will remain untouched for decades to come but lets be clear no player has ever intimidated, been feared and left his peers in awe the way MJ has done. LBJ is a king but MJ is a god.
What if Lakers gets 2nd sit. he deserves MVP 😂.
SA full of shyte like always. He's talks his way into and out of shyte
So LeBron has 0 legit titles and he’s the goat sure
Lebron is running well with these young bucks
Bron is Great.
MJ is Goat.
It's actually harder to see a Jordan level player!
SAS, please tell the people how many years did Spud Web (5'7"), Mugsy Bougs (5'3"), and Michael Adams (5'10") play in the NBA. All 3 were starters and legitimate contributors to their team. But a prime Lebron at 6'8 or 9"/270 lbs wouldn't be able handle the toughness of the 80s and early 90s NBA? Research those 3 players. Folks they weren't practiced squad players! smh
Lack of chip is the reason LeBron still playing best believe
No one cares he's a hall of fame player these rankings are stupid
MJ THE GOAT 🐐 PERIOD!!! Lebron is doing what he's doing because he trying to out do MJ but that juice he's taking is another topic
I might just unsubscribed from ESPN for Stephen A. calling Lebron James the GOAT. 🤦🤦🤦
Jordan is not 6-0 in the finals. Lets get that out the way first. Its not boxing tennis or golf its a Team Sport. Jordan had pippen and them boys right… LBJ is hands down the best basketball player EVER to take the court.
Give bron a random drug test and i bet yall will feel differently. Steroids can be used for recovery time. Ijs
King James all day ever day
now jordan fans is crying 😂😂😂
Come people!! Bron picks his teammates. Remind me, did Kobe do the same? Nope
Comparing Jordan to LeBron is like comparing Babe Ruth to Hank Aaron
Stephen A needs to stop heckling Bron 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He now has 50,000 total career points season + points.
I hate to be that guy but why does everyone not say who Lebron has played with vs. who Jordan did? Wade, Bosh, Ray Allen, Kyrie, Love, AD and now Luka. Just image if Jordan got to play with that talent! Yes he had Pippen but that's it. Imagine if he had Brad Daughtry at center or Barkley at power. Lebron played with Wade/AD/Luka who all at the time he played with them were top 10 guys. Pippen was certainly a top 10 guy 3 or of the 6 chips with Jordan but imagine if he had what Lebron did? I'm sorry you have to look at who they played with. To me its not close.
He’s been carried around by ithers to get that championship..that’s a fact
LBJ 👑
OMG! So tired of hearing the name! Please retire! This is a circus full of PEDs
