The cavs? Come on man.
Let’s see some early 90s Knicks or late 80s Pistons
“Basketball got weak today”
Basketball back then: 😂

Discussion
You have to look at the lowest common denominator. This time period was going through an expansion era. They added several new teams that were really bad in order to grow the league. The good teams beat up on the new teams that had no chance. The statistics show this too. Stats were inflated because of these new teams. Larry Bird and other legends have criticized this decision and commented on how it creates an inaccurate view of player talents. Also, our natural biases prevent us from seeing a clear big view picture. There are legends from the era before Jordan who said that they would destroy the bulls and that the league was easier. You can’t make this shit up. Friend sent me this hilarious interview a while back when I also used to be a LeBron hater 😂

I’m not a LeBron hater but he’s top 10 in my book. As pure talent, he’s top 2 or 3 no doubt.
I go by who I want on my team and that’s still MJ. In a decade it might be wembenyama
Why do you take Jordan over LeBron?
Not only Jordan. I’ll take Kobe, Shaq, Duncan over LeBron
Why do you hate lebron? 😂
What hate? All I’m saying is he ain’t the goat. I gave you the most well rounded and most talented.
I’d rather have some others on my team. Maybe cuz I’m old idk
Why do you need others to recognize he’s the best ever or we’re automatically haters
Not the best ever but Shaq? That guy had terrible longevity. He was fat and ass for a significant portion of his career. Couldn’t hit a free throw for his life either.
What was the last season you followed closely?
Shaq was the most dominant athlete in modern times.
The 90s was the time I watched sports heaviest.
You didn’t answer my question
I think the most dominant player is the one who dominates for the longest period of time. Some players have dominated for a few years. Think of Derrick Rose. He was dominant for like 3 years then had an injury and was never the same. Shaq dominated on the lakers but nowhere else really. Kobe dominated for much longer than Shaq. Duncan too. And LeBron has been the most dominant. No one has played at a high level for as long as LeBron. Most people just don’t like LeBron because they have preferences for other play styles or personalities.
I still watch highlights. I largely grew out of sports cause it’s not that serious.
I have seen a lot of LeBron, it’s absolutely absurd how he’s built and how great he continues to be. But Derek Rose even in a few years proved to be great one.
Steph’s longevity at the top is a marvel too. Longevity is a major notch but not as great as how good a a few years is. I can’t give it a number, it’s not a science, everyone has their own formula for great(est/ness).
Shaq was dominant most of his career. You forget his time in Orlando.
I didn’t like LeBron running to different teams, then creating drama that one time. Not the type of attitude I wanted to see in the GOAT.
I don’t care about changing teams that much. These businesses are trying to make the most money possible out of the players so players should make the most they can while they’re young.
The only thing I really hated was his broadcast of the decision. But he’s even admitted later that he regrets doing that. And I think his personality is funny. He gets caught doing dumb stuff like doing troll face photobombs with his teammates 😂
Not my prototypical goat.
A literal killer, a gambler, an asshole. Like Jordan
I think Jordan punched his teammate in the face lol I don’t get why people celebrate that
I had to punch another boy on the playground once. He wanted a fight and he didn’t know how to fight.
You’re nothing like Jordan stop 🤣
lol, I challenge you to a game of horse
How tall are you and how much do you weigh?
Wtf
What kind of horse were you thinking
Basketball horse
You weigh in for that?
I assess my odds of winning based on physical traits
Still not the horse I am thinking.
If you’re short then you got no chance 🙅♂️
You’re going to some kind of tomahawk dunk something?
You’re going to open with this?
This is me
And this is my reaction
