    Did MJ play the same skill level of players that Bron has?
    Malone, Hakeem, Chuck
    KD Giannis Kawhi

      The players in the 80s and 90s we’re better defenders by far.
      The rules we’re different, the league was tougher.

      The only great team Lebron ever faced in the east was the Celtics w/ Big 3. Jordan played top championship contenders during his playoff runs, no cakewalks like Lebron. I think Jordan faced harder competition and won with less help without a move & recruit system.

      When you joined force with 2 franchise players and lost to a single core team, i.e. Nowitzki and Mavs in the final?

      You are not GOAT.

      @TheRealist 811 Agree. And I give LBJ the credit that he almost single-handedly beat the 73-9 4-head monster GSW once.

      (Then LBJ claimed he is GOAT ince he beat the best record team… Duh… you just upset the favourite and it doesn’t make you the GOAT.)

    B.J. Armstrong still looks good after all these years! Most former NBA players look terrible 20 years after they’ve retired.

    It doesn’t take long to see how everyone now is being brainwashed by the media to believe Lebron is the GOAT smh. I can see it and I’m not even an old head, I’m only 26 lol but it’s refreshing to see MJ back in the spotlight

      May 12, 2020 at 11:49 pm

      That’s what separate true GOAT and self-proclaimed GOAT.

      Mr UV that was funny “ Old Head “ only 26 and in a few years 36 and then you’ll see how an old head is hahahahaha. Age doesnt take a pause for anyone my friend. We all getting there

    I don’t know man. What they showed MJ doing and saying didnt seem that bad to me. In fact in my opinion some of it was kinda corny. But, that’s just my opinion and it wasn’t happening to me. I don’t fault him for going the tough love route
