I definatly remember that shit. What about when he announced his return. On the cover of every sports magazine read the words "I'm back" he wore number 45.
When Mike retired for the first time, I got home from work, and sat in my chair. In the dark. My fiance came home from work a few minutes later. Saw the look on my face and asked who died.
Just a few things that don't show up on the stat sheets... Jordan was 11-0 in championship play (1 NCAA title, 6 NBA titles, 4 Gold medals). When Jordan made it to the final round, he walked away as the winner. He always showed up when it mattered most. Jordan was the driving force that turned the Bulls franchise into a dynasty. Whenever his team was favored to win in the playoffs, Jordan won - his record as the favorite is 24-0. Jordan never allowed an underdog team to upset him in the playoffs. From the beginning of the 90/91 season until he hit the game winner in the 98 Finals, the Bulls never lost 3 games in a row when they had Jordan, and this INCLUDES PLAYOFFS & FINALS. Jordan went 626 games without losing 3 in a row. No other player in NBA history has gone more than half as long as Jordan did without losing 3 in a row. LeBron had his chance and fell short... Jordan still sits alone atop Mount Olympus awaiting the next challenger.
@keepnitreel 4me Actually, it is 4 - 2 in the Olympics of course, and 1 in the 1983 Pan Am Games and another in the 1992 FIBA Americas Championships. 4 gold medals total.
@keepnitreel 4me You can delete your comment if you want, but it's no big deal really... You're not the first person to be wrong about something. Happens to me all the time as well lol!

Lebron leads the NBA in turnovers in the post season of any player in NBA history. Lebron is a joke and his followers like Shannon and Nick Wright and young Lebron fans keep trying to push he is the best ever. Lebron fanboys done skipped Bill Russell, Bird, Wilt, Kobe, Magic and went straight to MJ lol.
From 1990 to retirement from the bulls never lost 3 in a row with Jordan. Thats some crazy shit there and shots made with the clock winding down even crazier.
Fernando Estrada your father is a wise man to teach you that. As the great Walter Payton once said “when you’re good you’ll tell people about it. When you’re great people will tell you”
"I think it's pretty great that a guy won 3 titles, lay off for two years, came back and won 3 more. THAT is considered greatness to me." -Scottie Pippen I don't understand this debate at all. LeBron hasn't passed Kobe, how can you even start comparing him to MJ? 6-0 in the Finals, 6 Finals MVP - that's a KILLER mentality. LeBron just doesn't have that. LeBron choked many times on the "money-time". You never heard something like "Where was Michael Jordan on the 4th quarter?". You never heard people getting nervous about "what's gonna happen on game 7" because MJ never allowed game 7. MJ had 41PPG in the FUCKING FINALS. LeBron had lower PPG and impact than Bosh and Wade. Also, if Kyrie and Allen don't hit these CRAZY 3p's, LeBron would've had just ONE ring and a disgusting 1-8 in the Finals. To me, LeBron James isn't even top 10. Jordan, Kareem, Magic, Chamberlain, Russel, Pippen, Duncan, Kobe, Olajuwan, West, Erving and many more. Think that MANY AMAZING players never had a ring while Jordan played, and even Olajuwan would probably have none if MJ didn't lay off these 2 years. Nonsense debate.
Think you for throwing Pip in top 10. I argue All the time with people that forgot about Pip. If I'm picking a 5 man squad to play against literally ANY other 5 in history, I'm starting with MJ and Pip. Wilt is am EASY pick for top 3, imo. So we have the 2, 3, and 5 spot. Probably get Rodman for the 4. You're laughing right? Nah, because I'm picking a TEAM, AND anyone that can lock up Shaq, is needed on my best team. That leaves PG spot open. OBVIOUSLY Magic, again just my opinion. I'm open to who should fill the 4 spot other than Rodman; Duncan maybe? Wait wait wait..... I'm sliding Wilt to 4, because of his athleticism, and putting Shaq at 5. Sorry Rodman, I had to make a GM decision lol. But really, just want to remind people of how good Rodman was.
On one hand yes Jordan is clearly greater than Lebron, there is no argument But on the other hand having Pippen in the top 10 over Lebron is simply asinine. Pippen has NEVER won a ring as the leader of his team. I also find it completely hypocritical you hold Allen and Kyrie's shots against Lebron yet refuse to hold Paxon and Kerr's shots against Jordan or Horry, Fisher, and World Peace's shots against Kobe.
LSAT Tutor I’m not the one who said he was but I think he’s underrated because people don’t want to give him proper credit since it would lessen Jordan’s legacy
Jordan did it when the rules made it harder to score and the best big men in NBA history were waiting for him under the rim without a defensive 3 in the key rule keeping them out of the paint.
omar rana Lebron was subject to the same in 2007 finals, look at how that ended up, he shot 39%, worst than all his teammates, and somehow he is the one blaming them 😂. so all in all Lebron showed he had no real offensive skills like Kobe or MJ or even Tony Parker...#neverforget
Greatest team ever assembled!? Love The Warriors, a great team for this era! But I think The Greatest Team EVER assembled is called "The Dream Team"!!!!!
That is correct but the greatest nba team ever assembled is the 95-96 bulls team. Best regular season record, prior to the warriors, best player ever and an NBA championship. It means nothing if you don't win a chip, just look at the undefeated(regular season) dolphins or pats... not even considered in the top teams because they didn't win the most important game.
He said he's the greatest to get people to put him in the conversation with MJ. No one should be talking about him with MJ. Russell, KAJ, Magic, Bird. Those guys should be talked about more with MJ than LBJ.
The fact that James had to be the one that called himself the GOAT means...he is not the GOAT. James has played over 100 more games than Jordan but has fewer points, fewer championships, fewer finals mvp's, fewer season mvp's, fewer steals per game, fewer points per game, a much lower free throw percentage. Nope, James is not the GOAT. Jordan gave the perfect answer when he was asked. He doesn't need to say it...everyone else will.
@Tala Okoye an ignorant jackass can claim whatever they want. It doesn't make them brave, or take guts. It just makes them look like a joke and that's exactly what Lebron is.
@Tala Okoye This discussion is only taking place because the media needs to crown a new goat for their ratings and recency bias. Young fans want to justify their fandom by proclaiming that Lebron is the goat. That is the only reason why this discussion even exists. Statistically, he's virtually identical to Karl Malone, who Michael beat twice in the finals. Go figure.
@Tala Okoye i literally said it was new fans and media due to recency bias. Reread my comment again. I compared Malone and Lebron's stats. They're virtually identical. Some stats Malone was slightly better, other Lebron. But essentially, they're the same player. They score the same style. Those are facts. I've been following too since the 80s. And Lebron is a joke. Not worthy of being in the goat conversation.
rbf, lebron is quite clutch now. but he was terrible much of his career. not to mention, Kobe was the alpha of the olympic team. can you imagine Jordan taking a back seat to anyone, ever?
@@Flashyfinancier That was 1987 not 2014- present. No player movement. Low salaries. Contracts not guaranteed. Even starters made little money. Jordan didnt make jordan. When jordan left Pippen still won. But without pippen, jordan couldn't even muster a winning record. Those are facts.
ITS NO DEBATE JORDAN IS THE G🏀AT AND ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 Hey Lebron Mike never said he was the g.o.a.t we the people say and look at MJ as the greatest.
THIS is the compilation I've been looking for! To hear it from the media AND NBA players puts the nail in the coffin on this debate. ONLY Lebron stans will downvote this video. The truth hurts...lol
2 things. First, I think Lebron said it to distract people from his comments about NFL owners. Second, the GOAT is someone who would be feared by other players. No one is afraid of Lebron, but everyone feared MJ.
@@christianesposito7453 Check out MJ's interview with Pat Riley from '91 where Riley asks him, "Have you ever been afraid of anyone on the court? Ever been intimidated by anyone?" To which MJ replies, "No. Never." ua-cam.com/video/mWOYrtlToO8/v-deo.html
How can you be the goat when you play in a Harlem Globtrotter, no defense type league? Jordan had to pass through a meat grinder just to get to the rim.
I remember the crazy baskets he made in all pivotal games, he was unstoppable no matter what, today there is no great rim protectors like the old times, and MJ was double teammed a lot and he never had so good a spacing,
Here’s the difference in the NBA everybody is a painter trying to paint there career and add as much as they can into that picture there’s thousands of guys that could paint your wall one color there’s maybe 100 guys that can put up a nice picture on his wall too then there’s 50 who can paint that picture and have it go down as one of the best picture paintings ever then there’s 10 guys who can paint that picture and add gold to it and then there’s 1 guy who’s whole picture is painted gold and that’s Michael Jordan
Lovin this video. Nice job on editing all this together. Anybody thats old enough to have watched Jordan's games live and not just highlights on youtube knows Jordan was overall better no doubt. And im not one of these older people that say everybody in my day was better. I'll tell you right now Steph Curry is the best shooter ive ever seen. Jordan was an ice cold killer. Lebron lacks that.
@@FacePCGaming I think as far as white players, Bird was no doubt the best. And even in all races I'd say bird may be in the top five. Definitely top ten imo.
Kareem Abdul all time scorer and bill Russell thirteen championships and Wilt Chamberlain second all time scorer only man to score 100 points in a game ...
Okay lets imagine the 88-89,89-90 Pistons weren't allowed to physically beat up Jordan and the Bulls, and Jordan didn't leave the league for a year and a half from 93-95. Could it be possible that Jordan wins 10 championships, just a thought.
@@jameskeys5979 it makes perfect sense. The number 23 is synonymous with Michael Jordan. yeah, plenty of other players also wear it but none of them claim to be the greatest of all time. LBJ wears 23 because he idolized (idolizes) Jordan. His point is that if he wanted to avoid that he could've used a different number and claimed that of his own. I understand it's a silly thing but in the culture, it's a big deal. People will always consider him a "wannabe Jordan" and you can't beat him if you want to be him. Who wants to be someone they consider less than themself? I feel like that's why Kobe took the number 24, because he wants to pay homage to his hero but also be his own man and also kind of say "i'm next" because you know, 23 - 24.
Besides great Jordan and Kobe was entertaining. LeBron just boring and he needs the media needs to prop him up. Lebron gone to take a piss and that makes news.......Just Ridiculous
Jordan prevented multiple hall of famers from winning titles. The league is soft now NO defense 140 points games . Most people who seen both in their prime know without a doubt he couldn't carry Jordan's jock. LeBron is awesome , but the greatest of all time how. 6 finals losses helps disqualifiy you, Jordan played with one all-star when they first had a 3peat then he retired returned 1 1/2 years later pulled a terrible bulls team to the playoffs and lost . They got Rodman and the bulls won 72 games and won 3 more titles. NO LeBron you fall way short , in my opinion you haven't passed Kobe. Jordan or Kareem those 2 are the only individuals players that can be called the goat. Nobody I know thinks that .
If MICHAEL "AIR" JORDAN played in this NO HAND CHECK, NO HARD FOUL ERA, he would average 45PPG!! On top of that, MICHAEL JORDAN was a SUPERIOR DEFENDER and led the NBA in STEALS at least THREE TIMES. If MJ, had 20 straight years like KOBE and LEBRON, he would OWN the NBA RECORD BOOK! STOP PLAYING!! TEN SCORING TITLES? 6-0 FINALS, 6 FINALS MVP, LEAGUE MVP, DPOY, GOLD MEDALS, NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS!! MJ took the BULLS to 72-10!! TWO THREE PEATS!!! And made a DYNASTY out of the laughing stock of the league. LEBRON has 6 L's in the FINALS, and three of those LOSSES were HUMILIATING!! Don't you EVER fix your mouth to compare yourself to the G.O.A.T.!!! SMH
@@danielbutcher8108 If Lebron had a team where his sidekick was Pau Gasol, he'd be on the phone with the entire all star team crying for help. Kobe won 2 without Shaq under these conditions! Lebron doesn't know what it's like to carry a team!
@@WillToWinvlog And if Kobe had a team where his sidekick was Drew Gooden, he'd be watching the Playoffs from home.. LeBron took Gooden and Boobie Gibson to the Finals that year... Kobe cried about leaving and not having enough help in 1999. It's not that hard to try and discredit one guy while trying to build the other up... It is fucking stupid tho
I don't count the '94 and '95 seasons... Mike lead the league in scoring for 10 years str8. '87- '93 and '96-'98. Plus, won 6 titles back to back to back....
I don’t know why lebron points to the 2016 finals as what makes him the GOAT. He beat a team with the same amount of talent as his team, so it wasn’t a real upset when the Cavs beat the Warriors.
Also, Andrew Bogut was injures, Harrison Barnes was shooting terribly throughout the series, and Draymond Green missed a game because of a suspension, which makes that win even less impressive.
People there are three levels of greatness. Watching these people play. 1. Lebron = that guy is Good. 2. Kobe = Wow that guy if Great. 3......Jordan = Oh my God !!! Who is that guy, I have never seen anybody do anything like that before. Wow !!!!. This is someone watching all three at there best for the first time reaction. That's the difference folks. That's the BIG difference when watching all three. Michael Jodan was beautiful to watch as good as the others are they are not beautiful in a highlight film and they are not as memorable to watch. That's it.
Not even Queen...princess maybe! MJ and Kobe are both better by far. I would have loved to see a prime MJ and a prime Kobe battle. Same with Bird and Magic, both way better than Lebron.
Ppl today don't understand what it means to score 45pts in a game and your teams wins with 87pts total. Not like today a gut gets 40pts and team score 135pts.
Setting aside Jordan's raw talent, determination, ability to find ways to win, stats at what he accomplished in a shorter time frame, two gold medals, college championship, and being the pure definition of a champion, I think what he accomplished during that era is amazing. Just look at the style of play during Jordan's era versus LeBron's. Back then, the league was tougher and more physical, where defense was just as important as offense. The league today is soft, no defense whatsoever, more focus on perimeter play, no player diving for balls or posting-up and bumping elbows, and there are countless videos of players today just stepping out of the way when someone drives to the hoop. What MJ accomplished then was Babe Ruthian. And lastly, GOATs don't go around telling people how they are the greatest, other people should do that for you. No one in their right mind can argue any of this.
Jordan> LeBron Points Jordan 30 PPG 33 PPG in the playoffs Rebounds LeBron Assists Tie DEFENSE Jordan 88 DPOY 10x All-Defense Championships 6>3 Are you kidding?!! Jordan’s the greatest player in NBA history

@@danielbutcher8108 Petty. Absolutely pathetic. What 1 fg more and how many more games? Lol Jordan is still more clutch thats not even a fkkn question. I guarantee you jordans fgs had more significance than lebrons. All fgs arent the same. Shot Distance?game circumstances??How many were in the finals?? How many clinched series??? Jordan has those.

Theirs a lot of HOF who don't have rings bc of Jordan. Out of those HOF theirs quite a few of them who are in the top 50 of all time who don't have rings bc of Jordan. Their is no debate.
Shaun King exactly, Lebron knew that : 1-Kyrie saved his legacy 2-he gotta try and make people forget it 3-he got carried by Adam Silver against an injured GS
The Warriors added KD in 2017 and thoroughly beat him 4-1 that year and thoroughly swept him the next year. It kinda disproves LeBron's claim that the injured and suspended 2016 Warriors were the best team ever.
@@christianesposito7453 how come LeBron got swept twice by the 2017 and 2018 warriors which were an inferior team since statistically the 2016 warriors was the best team ever?
You know what, it's about the recent generation that's looking for a hero, and they see it in Lebron. Though Jordan remains the GOAT, the new generation wants to make a statement, that their era is better than of the previous decades. But let's state the facts here, because we were not born yesterday, we also live in your era.. Kobe Bryant played against a champion Jordan and a champion Lebron. Young Kobe played against an old Bull Jordan and prime Kobe played against an older Wizard Jordan. Jordan was still dominant on both ends. Prime Kobe played against a young Lebron, Kobe ate him. Old Kobe played against a prime Lebron, and Kobe still ate him, individual perfomance wise. Kobe Bryant was the legitimate barometer of the issue, our assessments are nothing. Kobe would always put Jordan above him, he knew who the GOAT was and never even bothered to participate in debates, because the comparison was always about him Kobe and Jordan. To second the motion, to settle the matter of who's who between Jordan and Kobe was the man between them, coach Phil Jackson, and the great coach chose Jordan. Lebron is a powerhouse that's for sure but it is disrespectful to put Lebron in a status he never was and never will be.
I miss mj like crazy 😭 I wished he was still playing but we never stay young we age and set the mark for those behind us to follow, mj sat the standard for others to follow !!! THE REAL REAL KING of basketball !!! HIS AIRNESS!!! MICHAEL JORDAN!!!
Jordan is the greatest LeBron telling people his the greatest wow. Jordan bird magic there are better then LeBron Kobe. And there more to but Jordan bar far is the GOAT. You cannot be 3&6 and be the greatest sorry. 6-0 no that's greatness. Jordan the GOAT
@@FacePCGaming im 37 man and i think Jordan is the GOaT and bird is number two magic Kobe I would take hakeem and kareem and Duncan and there is more players that I think that are better then LeBron. I think LeBron is overrated
@@dudetgirls that's debatable because of the comparison of eras. But one thing all these names have in common is winning records in championships appearances. No GOAT in any sport has a losing record in championship appearances. Lebron should be disqualified from this debate.
Duncan is (I think) 3rd in defensive rating of over 3,000 players to play ABA or NBA basketball. And I don't need to mention his offensive game. Duncan is low-key top ten.
The question I've been asking is: If beating the Warriors made you the greatest of all time, what did losing to the Mavericks in 2011 (when you were favoured to win) make you?
James has so much respect and to a certain aspect fear Kobe cause he played against him, now if you take on the fact that Jordan was better than Kobe - what would have James think and feel about MJ he he played against him.
@@kennycarrasco1674 respect the legends they could not jump from team to team to win championships like LeBron does. If they had that luxury they would had have more accolades.
@@kennycarrasco1674 That's my point! If they could move or get other player they would have more accolades. Imagine picking up Wilt on the Laker's from 1962-1972 WEST and Baylor would have multiple Championships/MVP's.
There's some pretty funny clips in here (Action Bronson, Eddie Murphy, George Carlin) xD the fact that this is even a conversation is laughable. Btw you used the wrong KD shot clip in the finals, that one you played he hit right in JR's grill (which was a nice clutch shot and was later) but that one he hit in Lebrons grill was what he was talking about, that one was deadly.
I want all people in the world to recongnize one thing here.... when he and that team won their last championship.. why didn't he speak of this immediately...hmmm??? Time.age.fatigue.have now all begin to play a factor and window is closing on his career and he knows of this very well..... Honestly at this point he doesn't see a very bright future in L.A. or a championship at all.... so i better put it in my ballad to start a world uproar to adeem myself as the greatest because that at this point is the about the best chance i have.... GREAT MARKETING SCHEME LEBRON!!!
As always, love all your videos! You have an amazing talent to put them together and bring the truth out to educate those who unfortunately are being blinded by social media and false so called SElf claimed wanna be something he is truly NOT and will NEVER be!! That being said, great work and I look forward to your next one. And for LeBron, all I can say is, it's very sad, low, and clearly a sign of desperation when you have to SELF claim something you're truly NOT and will NEVER be! Let others say that but you'll never get there so might as well finish your legacy while you still can with some dignity! Peace!!!
Thanks a million my dude i definitely appreciate you...i call it how i see it and if i felt Lebron was the greatest then this video would've been totally different, Jordan is one of my favorites but Bird was my idol but Mike is the best i've ever seen with my own too eyes
Oh bro !!! Excellent video!!! It's speaks nothing but the truth homie!!! I hope those few LeBron fans watch it please !! So they will finally know !!! Like you said , OFF WITH THE KINGS HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This video is so on point an accurate. LeBron James is an AMAZING basketball player but he'll never be better than Michael Jeffrey Jordan. It's the mentality and will to win that sets them apart. In the 80's & 90's Mike was literally feared on the court... Literally!!! I have never seen anyone afraid of LeBron who's bigger and possibly stronger. I don't know ijs.
There is a reason that the threepeat is considered the crowning glory of basketball... because it signifies the complete and utter domination you had during that period. Magic, Bird, the Bad Boys all chased it and fell short. To call yourself the GOAT after ONE victory is just disrespectful to all the other eras when they were chasing three in a row. (Added stipulation: You have to stay in the SAME TEAM during this attempt) Lebron shouldn't even whisper that he's the GOAT without a threepeat.
Pippen said it, "You cant call yourself the GOAT, you have to let other people say it". Well you know what, people have been saying for 25 years now that Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time.
THIS video right here IS the Greatest. I never saw the clip (whatever you call it) of LeChoke calling HIMSELF the Greatest of all time, I've just heard mentally delusional ppl say how great the queen is. I've watched LeDouche's career and haven't seen anything impressive. Everyone knows who the GOAT is and This video proves it. " Face PC Gaming" Thank You.
MJ is the greatest of all time, and after him on my Mount Rushmore are the Three Centers (Russell, Wilt, Kareem - in any order). Bill Russell led a team to 11 titles in 13 years, and never lost a Game 7. He just knew how to win. Wilt had outlandish statistics and was the pillar of two of the greatest teams ever: the 1966-67 76ers and 1971-72 Lakers. And Kareem had more MVP awards and more points than anyone, and had a long career where he was dominant on both offense and defense. LeBron James only comes after that Mount Rushmore. But it is close, because I really think that before LeBron, I could actually put Magic and Bird above him as #5 and #6 (or both tied for 5th over LeBron). Nos. 8 and 9 for me are Tim Duncan and Shaq. Shaq could actually be higher if he only had a greater last few seasons than he did, but at his peak, he was the most dominating center ever. And tied at #10 are The Three Guards: Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, and Kobe Bryant. If we had to put them in a hierarchy, you can put them in any order. Bottom line: LeBron James is not the Greatest of All Time over MJ. I wouldn't even put him over the 3 centers.

@@curtisfranzen986 I have PTSD from MJ retiring
Just a few things that don't show up on the stat sheets...
Jordan was 11-0 in championship play (1 NCAA title, 6 NBA titles, 4 Gold medals). When Jordan made it to the final round, he walked away as the winner. He always showed up when it mattered most. Jordan was the driving force that turned the Bulls franchise into a dynasty.
Whenever his team was favored to win in the playoffs, Jordan won - his record as the favorite is 24-0. Jordan never allowed an underdog team to upset him in the playoffs.
From the beginning of the 90/91 season until he hit the game winner in the 98 Finals, the Bulls never lost 3 games in a row when they had Jordan, and this INCLUDES PLAYOFFS & FINALS. Jordan went 626 games without losing 3 in a row. No other player in NBA history has gone more than half as long as Jordan did without losing 3 in a row.
LeBron had his chance and fell short... Jordan still sits alone atop Mount Olympus awaiting the next challenger.
Never losing 3 in a row might be the most impressive stat yet. That's crazy.
@@Bukejuice22 No doubt bro... To even think that something like that was possible is mind-boggling.

He did lead the league in steals 3X
But Jordan is *still* the greatest player in NBA history
Lebron leads the NBA in turnovers in the post season of any player in NBA history. Lebron is a joke and his followers like Shannon and Nick Wright and young Lebron fans keep trying to push he is the best ever. Lebron fanboys done skipped Bill Russell, Bird, Wilt, Kobe, Magic and went straight to MJ lol.
AMEN!!!
WOW. What franchise guard today is even trying to be All Defense AND DPOY? That's crazy.
I keep thinking of that scene from Game of Thrones were Joffrey says, "I am the King!"... and Tywin says, "No king says 'i am the king"'
Exactly!

If you have to demand ur the king then u aren't the king
That's about right because I can't stand Lebron just about the same amount as I couldn't stand Joffrey. (Matter of fact, I think I prefer Joffrey).
Everything you need to know about life you can learn from Game of Thrones. Including how not to finish a series.
From 1990 to retirement from the bulls never lost 3 in a row with Jordan. Thats some crazy shit there and shots made with the clock winding down even crazier.
CASE CLOSED ON THE GOAT CONVERSATION MICHEAL JORDAN STANDS ALONE!!!!!!!
this is hilarious AF bro 😂😂😂 the cutaways are sooooo funny!
I was taught by my father that you never tell people how great you are. Let people tell you how great you are.
Fernando Estrada your father is a wise man to teach you that. As the great Walter Payton once said “when you’re good you’ll tell people about it. When you’re great people will tell you”
"I think it's pretty great that a guy won 3 titles, lay off for two years, came back and won 3 more. THAT is considered greatness to me." -Scottie Pippen
I don't understand this debate at all.
LeBron hasn't passed Kobe, how can you even start comparing him to MJ?
6-0 in the Finals, 6 Finals MVP - that's a KILLER mentality. LeBron just doesn't have that. LeBron choked many times on the "money-time".
You never heard something like "Where was Michael Jordan on the 4th quarter?".
You never heard people getting nervous about "what's gonna happen on game 7" because MJ never allowed game 7.
MJ had 41PPG in the FUCKING FINALS. LeBron had lower PPG and impact than Bosh and Wade. Also, if Kyrie and Allen don't hit these CRAZY 3p's, LeBron would've had just ONE ring and a disgusting 1-8 in the Finals.
To me, LeBron James isn't even top 10. Jordan, Kareem, Magic, Chamberlain, Russel, Pippen, Duncan, Kobe, Olajuwan, West, Erving and many more.
Think that MANY AMAZING players never had a ring while Jordan played, and even Olajuwan would probably have none if MJ didn't lay off these 2 years.
Nonsense debate.
Think you for throwing Pip in top 10. I argue All the time with people that forgot about Pip. If I'm picking a 5 man squad to play against literally ANY other 5 in history, I'm starting with MJ and Pip. Wilt is am EASY pick for top 3, imo. So we have the 2, 3, and 5 spot. Probably get Rodman for the 4. You're laughing right? Nah, because I'm picking a TEAM, AND anyone that can lock up Shaq, is needed on my best team. That leaves PG spot open. OBVIOUSLY Magic, again just my opinion. I'm open to who should fill the 4 spot other than Rodman; Duncan maybe? Wait wait wait..... I'm sliding Wilt to 4, because of his athleticism, and putting Shaq at 5. Sorry Rodman, I had to make a GM decision lol. But really, just want to remind people of how good Rodman was.
If pippen is top 10, then that would lessen Jordan’s legacy. That’s why I think people leave him off. But still MJ the 🐐
On one hand yes Jordan is clearly greater than Lebron, there is no argument But on the other hand having Pippen in the top 10 over Lebron is simply asinine. Pippen has NEVER won a ring as the leader of his team. I also find it completely hypocritical you hold Allen and Kyrie's shots against Lebron yet refuse to hold Paxon and Kerr's shots against Jordan or Horry, Fisher, and World Peace's shots against Kobe.
Str8 facts!!!
LSAT Tutor I’m not the one who said he was but I think he’s underrated because people don’t want to give him proper credit since it would lessen Jordan’s legacy
Jordan did it when the rules made it harder to score and the best big men in NBA history were waiting for him under the rim without a defensive 3 in the key rule keeping them out of the paint.
omar rana Lebron was subject to the same in 2007 finals, look at how that ended up, he shot 39%, worst than all his teammates, and somehow he is the one blaming them 😂.
so all in all Lebron showed he had no real offensive skills like Kobe or MJ or even Tony Parker...#neverforget
Greatest team ever assembled!? Love The Warriors, a great team for this era! But I think The Greatest Team EVER assembled is called "The Dream Team"!!!!!
That is correct but the greatest nba team ever assembled is the 95-96 bulls team. Best regular season record, prior to the warriors, best player ever and an NBA championship. It means nothing if you don't win a chip, just look at the undefeated(regular season) dolphins or pats... not even considered in the top teams because they didn't win the most important game.
The ‘92 dream team specifically
He said he's the greatest to get people to put him in the conversation with MJ. No one should be talking about him with MJ. Russell, KAJ, Magic, Bird. Those guys should be talked about more with MJ than LBJ.
The fact that James had to be the one that called himself the GOAT means...he is not the GOAT. James has played over 100 more games than Jordan but has fewer points, fewer championships, fewer finals mvp's, fewer season mvp's, fewer steals per game, fewer points per game, a much lower free throw percentage. Nope, James is not the GOAT. Jordan gave the perfect answer when he was asked. He doesn't need to say it...everyone else will.
Facts!!! Very well explained.
He's pulling a Lil Wayne tbh Self proclaiming and people running with it. Love em but not the best
@@JMIToThe that's actually the perfect way to put it
None of the greats ever declared themselves being the GOAT.
Tala Okoye yeah but see At his time nobody was good as him there was no debate. Lebron’s era everyone ate
@Tala Okoye an ignorant jackass can claim whatever they want. It doesn't make them brave, or take guts. It just makes them look like a joke and that's exactly what Lebron is.
@Tala Okoye This discussion is only taking place because the media needs to crown a new goat for their ratings and recency bias. Young fans want to justify their fandom by proclaiming that Lebron is the goat.
That is the only reason why this discussion even exists.
Statistically, he's virtually identical to Karl Malone, who Michael beat twice in the finals. Go figure.
@Tala Okoye i literally said it was new fans and media due to recency bias.
Reread my comment again.
I compared Malone and Lebron's stats. They're virtually identical. Some stats Malone was slightly better, other Lebron. But essentially, they're the same player. They score the same style. Those are facts.
I've been following too since the 80s. And Lebron is a joke. Not worthy of being in the goat conversation.
M.J did
If you ain't clutch, you ain't even in the conversation.
that's HARSH lololololol
rbf, lebron is quite clutch now. but he was terrible much of his career. not to mention, Kobe was the alpha of the olympic team. can you imagine Jordan taking a back seat to anyone, ever?
@Tala Okoye pffft what stats? The one where he shoots 20% in clutch situations?
If Jordan and LeBron played in the same era LeBron wouldn't win any titles
Super Facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jordan dam ge a bad man mr ali
THIS is the compilation I've been looking for! To hear it from the media AND NBA players puts the nail in the coffin on this debate. ONLY Lebron stans will downvote this video. The truth hurts...lol
2 things. First, I think Lebron said it to distract people from his comments about NFL owners. Second, the GOAT is someone who would be feared by other players. No one is afraid of Lebron, but everyone feared MJ.
FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike was afraid of bird, magic, the pistons
@@christianesposito7453 Check out MJ's interview with Pat Riley from '91 where Riley asks him, "Have you ever been afraid of anyone on the court? Ever been intimidated by anyone?" To which MJ replies, "No. Never."

@@NehemiahRyan lol go look at tape of lebron being asked if hes ever been afraid of anyone

How can you be the goat when you play in a Harlem Globtrotter, no defense type league? Jordan had to pass through a meat grinder just to get to the rim.
Was this one of those so called meat grinders you are speaking of? ua-cam.com/video/6v_PaSn2Ygo/v-deo.html
bansheebot2 How do you call yourself the GOAT when in the Championship finals you got SWEPT and MJ Was a SWEEPER!!!
LeBron couldn't make it pass The Bad Boys Pistons
I remember the crazy baskets he made in all pivotal games, he was unstoppable no matter what, today there is no great rim protectors like the old times, and MJ was double teammed a lot and he never had so good a spacing,
Here’s the difference in the NBA everybody is a painter trying to paint there career and add as much as they can into that picture there’s thousands of guys that could paint your wall one color there’s maybe 100 guys that can put up a nice picture on his wall too then there’s 50 who can paint that picture and have it go down as one of the best picture paintings ever then there’s 10 guys who can paint that picture and add gold to it and then there’s 1 guy who’s whole picture is painted gold and that’s Michael Jordan
Lovin this video. Nice job on editing all this together. Anybody thats old enough to have watched Jordan's games live and not just highlights on youtube knows Jordan was overall better no doubt. And im not one of these older people that say everybody in my day was better. I'll tell you right now Steph Curry is the best shooter ive ever seen. Jordan was an ice cold killer. Lebron lacks that.

Okay lets imagine the 88-89,89-90 Pistons weren't allowed to physically beat up Jordan and the Bulls, and Jordan didn't leave the league for a year and a half from 93-95. Could it be possible that Jordan wins 10 championships, just a thought.
And what if the front office didn't blow up the team after the 2nd 3-peat? 12 rings?? Good Lord.
Or Jordan breaking his leg and only playing 13 games
Michael Jordan is THE GOAT
His mentality was always incorrect for wearing another man's number
Some girl s**t lol
Damn skippy
How many number it is. Someone is going to wear someones number. That post doesn't make sense.
@@jameskeys5979 it makes perfect sense. The number 23 is synonymous with Michael Jordan. yeah, plenty of other players also wear it but none of them claim to be the greatest of all time. LBJ wears 23 because he idolized (idolizes) Jordan. His point is that if he wanted to avoid that he could've used a different number and claimed that of his own. I understand it's a silly thing but in the culture, it's a big deal. People will always consider him a "wannabe Jordan" and you can't beat him if you want to be him. Who wants to be someone they consider less than themself? I feel like that's why Kobe took the number 24, because he wants to pay homage to his hero but also be his own man and also kind of say "i'm next" because you know, 23 - 24.
That number belongs no to one unless you're playing for the Chicago Bulls.
Besides great Jordan and Kobe was entertaining. LeBron just boring and he needs the media needs to prop him up. Lebron gone to take a piss and that makes news.......Just Ridiculous
He dribbles strong and right handed to the basket, an does the spin move. Not really exciting
I LOVE your videos. You can see how much work and effort you take in each and every video you post.... Great job and thank you!!!!
Jordan prevented multiple hall of famers from winning titles. The league is soft now NO defense 140 points games . Most people who seen both in their prime know without a doubt he couldn't carry Jordan's jock. LeBron is awesome , but the greatest of all time how. 6 finals losses helps disqualifiy you, Jordan played with one all-star when they first had a 3peat then he retired returned 1 1/2 years later pulled a terrible bulls team to the playoffs and lost . They got Rodman and the bulls won 72 games and won 3 more titles. NO LeBron you fall way short , in my opinion you haven't passed Kobe. Jordan or Kareem those 2 are the only individuals players that can be called the goat. Nobody I know thinks that .
The defense now is far better than it's ever been but keep kidding yourself.
I don't think Lebron even has passed, Bird or Magic. Even Duncan. Lebron is like number 8 or. 9 on my list. Lebron is a great player but a choker.
Todd Kelly hell no it’s less physical and you get fouls super easily now a days

@@MALLYGEEZ1 more game winning fgs and a better percentage than Jordan in the playoffs lol. Quit that false narrative.

If MJ, had 20 straight years like KOBE and LEBRON, he would OWN the NBA RECORD BOOK! STOP PLAYING!! TEN SCORING TITLES? 6-0 FINALS, 6 FINALS MVP, LEAGUE MVP, DPOY, GOLD MEDALS, NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS!!

I don’t know why lebron points to the 2016 finals as what makes him the GOAT. He beat a team with the same amount of talent as his team, so it wasn’t a real upset when the Cavs beat the Warriors.
Jordan Greene in Fact Cavs had better talent, he had equal talent in 2017, and we all saw what happened
Also, Andrew Bogut was injures, Harrison Barnes was shooting terribly throughout the series, and Draymond Green missed a game because of a suspension, which makes that win even less impressive.

People there are three levels of greatness. Watching these people play. 1. Lebron = that guy is Good. 2. Kobe = Wow that guy if Great. 3......Jordan = Oh my God !!! Who is that guy, I have never seen anybody do anything like that before. Wow !!!!. This is someone watching all three at there best for the first time reaction. That's the difference folks. That's the BIG difference when watching all three. Michael Jodan was beautiful to watch as good as the others are they are not beautiful in a highlight film and they are not as memorable to watch. That's it.

Daily
Setting aside Jordan's raw talent, determination, ability to find ways to win, stats at what he accomplished in a shorter time frame, two gold medals, college championship, and being the pure definition of a champion, I think what he accomplished during that era is amazing. Just look at the style of play during Jordan's era versus LeBron's. Back then, the league was tougher and more physical, where defense was just as important as offense. The league today is soft, no defense whatsoever, more focus on perimeter play, no player diving for balls or posting-up and bumping elbows, and there are countless videos of players today just stepping out of the way when someone drives to the hoop. What MJ accomplished then was Babe Ruthian. And lastly, GOATs don't go around telling people how they are the greatest, other people should do that for you. No one in their right mind can argue any of this.

Dude, brilliant mashup .. You should trim The Black screen portions and static splash screens... Then your video would be perfect
You know what, it's about the recent generation that's looking for a hero, and they see it in Lebron. Though Jordan remains the GOAT, the new generation wants to make a statement, that their era is better than of the previous decades. But let's state the facts here, because we were not born yesterday, we also live in your era.. Kobe Bryant played against a champion Jordan and a champion Lebron. Young Kobe played against an old Bull Jordan and prime Kobe played against an older Wizard Jordan. Jordan was still dominant on both ends. Prime Kobe played against a young Lebron, Kobe ate him. Old Kobe played against a prime Lebron, and Kobe still ate him, individual perfomance wise. Kobe Bryant was the legitimate barometer of the issue, our assessments are nothing. Kobe would always put Jordan above him, he knew who the GOAT was and never even bothered to participate in debates, because the comparison was always about him Kobe and Jordan. To second the motion, to settle the matter of who's who between Jordan and Kobe was the man between them, coach Phil Jackson, and the great coach chose Jordan. Lebron is a powerhouse that's for sure but it is disrespectful to put Lebron in a status he never was and never will be.

You have an amazing talent to put them together and bring the truth out to educate those who unfortunately are being blinded by social media and false so called SElf claimed wanna be something he is truly NOT and will NEVER be!! That being said, great work and I look forward to your next one. And for LeBron, all I can say is, it's very sad, low, and clearly a sign of desperation when you have to SELF claim something you're truly NOT and will NEVER be! Let others say that but you'll never get there so might as well finish your legacy while you still can with some dignity! Peace!!!
Thanks a million my dude i definitely appreciate you...i call it how i see it and if i felt Lebron was the greatest then this video would've been totally different, Jordan is one of my favorites but Bird was my idol but Mike is the best i've ever seen with my own too eyes
His premise is off when he says GSW 2016 was the best team ever assembled. They weren't even the best GSW squad, lol.
Oh bro !!! Excellent video!!! It's speaks nothing but the truth homie!!! I hope those few LeBron fans watch it please !! So they will finally know !!! Like you said , OFF WITH THE KINGS HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LeBron is sinking and stinking.. he cant make it without another star.. well look at every team (championship team) he had been duuuhhh!
This video is so on point an accurate. LeBron James is an AMAZING basketball player but he'll never be better than Michael Jeffrey Jordan. It's the mentality and will to win that sets them apart. In the 80's & 90's Mike was literally feared on the court... Literally!!! I have never seen anyone afraid of LeBron who's bigger and possibly stronger. I don't know ijs.
Facts my G!
There is a reason that the threepeat is considered the crowning glory of basketball... because it signifies the complete and utter domination you had during that period. Magic, Bird, the Bad Boys all chased it and fell short.
To call yourself the GOAT after ONE victory is just disrespectful to all the other eras when they were chasing three in a row. (Added stipulation: You have to stay in the SAME TEAM during this attempt)
Lebron shouldn't even whisper that he's the GOAT without a threepeat.
Real talk
No 3peat u anit shit
@Kenneth Erickson wdym
@Kenneth Erickson Okay but not exactly relevant to the point I was making
@Kenneth Erickson Yeah, the floppy guy's done
Pippen said it, "You cant call yourself the GOAT, you have to let other people say it".
Well you know what, people have been saying for 25 years now that Michael Jordan is the greatest of all time.
That picture at the end that would really happen nice.
Like Stephen a says he is soft ad tissue paper cottonell
Love that intro. Mobb Deep: Drama!💯👌
Salute you're the only person to get that right...appreciate you my dude
32:26 - Someone hand Nick Wright a tissue..
Wow memories MJ was and still the best I have ever seen play
Jordan❤
THIS video right here IS the Greatest. I never saw the clip (whatever you call it) of LeChoke calling HIMSELF the Greatest of all time,
I've just heard mentally delusional ppl say how great the queen is. I've watched LeDouche's career and haven't seen anything impressive.
Everyone knows who the GOAT is and This video proves it. " Face PC Gaming" Thank You.
MJ is the greatest of all time, and after him on my Mount Rushmore are the Three Centers (Russell, Wilt, Kareem - in any order).
Bill Russell led a team to 11 titles in 13 years, and never lost a Game 7. He just knew how to win.
Wilt had outlandish statistics and was the pillar of two of the greatest teams ever: the 1966-67 76ers and 1971-72 Lakers.
And Kareem had more MVP awards and more points than anyone, and had a long career where he was dominant on both offense and defense.
LeBron James only comes after that Mount Rushmore.
But it is close, because I really think that before LeBron, I could actually put Magic and Bird above him as #5 and #6 (or both tied for 5th over LeBron).
Nos. 8 and 9 for me are Tim Duncan and Shaq. Shaq could actually be higher if he only had a greater last few seasons than he did, but at his peak, he was the most dominating center ever.
And tied at #10 are The Three Guards: Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, and Kobe Bryant. If we had to put them in a hierarchy, you can put them in any order.
Bottom line: LeBron James is not the Greatest of All Time over MJ. I wouldn't even put him over the 3 centers.
There's a reason why Lebron where's the number 23. He wants to be MJ. Kobe wore 24 because he was the next MJ but recognized he couldn't be MJ.
Y did lebron leave Cleveland 1sttime. Cuz he doesnt know how to win and needed some superstars to carry hes weakass to glory
He looked so soft in that decision after Boston bust his ass
I'm getting this teary eyes just by watching Jordan's highlights. impressive
And another thing Jordan never had to say he's the goat the world says it plus Jordan shoes still selling how many years after his retirement
