Congratulations to LeBron James. Unquestionably one of the top 5 players of all time.

Definitely not the greatest ever, but certainly a part of the conversation.

Pretty cool to have lived to see two of the greatest play throughout their careers.

I was around to see Kareem's later years, but by then he was past his prime.

Even drunk I could name a dozen better than LBJ
You are embarrassing yourself with a post like this. But just for the fun of it lets see the 12 you would put ahead of him.

this. I would love to see him try and list 12 better basketball players than Lebron.

cracks knuckles.. ahem.. here goes..

Jordan
Russell
Wilt
Kobe
Shaq
Bird
Magic
Stockton
Duncan
Olajuwon
Steph
Kareem
Lebron is #2 behind Jordan imb but if he continues to play at a high level for several more years and wins another ring (unlikely) then...

yup his elite trait is/was his frame and being durable as bleep while drafted out of HS

maybe the goat of longevity..

This.

Jordan is the GOAT and the funniest part is it's not even close.

However, I'd be happy to listen to anyone who is over 45 years old who was into the NBA their whole life who thinks LeBron is better than Jordan. I'd disagree with their take but at least worth listening to.

Just more longevity achievements. Doesn't make him better than Jordan and will never make him better than Jordan.

Amongst players that have won 4 or less ships , he is a GOAT
I think LeBron is the most all around skilled player to ever play. I'd take Jordan's career over his though.

I would take all these guys over LBJ. Look at Dirk he's a legend and yes he beat LBJ in the Finals head to head with much less around him. LeBron has never been the best at anything, Jordan a better scorer, ditto Kobe, Stockton a better passer, Olajuwon a better defender, Steph a better shooter, LBJ just the best logging a lot of minutes and contributing a lot of counting stats. I watched prime Shaq, prime Shaq was unstoppable and LBJ wouldn't win a ring vs prime Shaq, course Shaq was too big he can't maintain at that size as long. But burned way brighter, just not for as long.
