"The six years in debate: Lebron or Jordan" An ESPN article, basically calling Lebron the greatest ever I haven't heard of that article. Is the article comparing both players first six years in the league? If so, that is a slightly different argument. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's all based around the perception that Lebron is on the same level of Jordan but yeah your right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we only talking about the first six years of each players careers then that is a interesting discussion. I haven't compared the numbers but I bet they are pretty similar and Lebron had definitely had more success in the postseason so far (albeit it against much weaker competition than Jordan faced) than Jordan did at this stage of his career. I don't know if I agree that they are equal but it's a good debate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a Jaguar fan, I encounter a lot of Colts fan who are of the blame everybody but Peyton variety. Like the Cavs, it wasn't Lebron missing 5 free throws in the fourth quarter, it was their bench not playing well. Stop making excuses for individual players, root for your team, and don't compare the successful greats to a guy with potential Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
