Tim Duncan won a title in 2003 with a roster as weak or weaker than what LeBron had in 2007, 2009 & 2010. 2003 Duncan won a title though.
LeBron had better shooters around him and about the same defense roster than 2003 Duncan.

Yup, their “but Pippen” is their go to and they ignore Bron in his prime was outplayed by teammates in a postseason TWICE (2011, 2020)
Eddie like many LeIneverHaveEnoughHelp stans love to always "BUT PIPPEN" while forgetting that LeBron has played with arguably the greatest non-big man 2nd fiddle to take a backseat in NBA history

Waterboy Eddie equating titles with making the finals because he hates Michael Jordan. MJ must have destroyed.
Why is LeBron 3-6 in finals out of the East?
A. LeBron LeChoked (2007 & 2011)
B. Super weak conference
C. Both A & B
Correct answer is obviously C but Eddie wants to equate making the titles out of a weak conference to WINNING rings....because waterboy Eddie never won an NBA tittle nor even made the finals so it's all the same to him!
I personally think any player that gets to a finals is a winner. Thats how difficult it is to actually get to a Finals. 4 conference finals trips and losses proved that too me. Unfortunately in 4 years and 249 games you never played in 1 playoff game to even experience a first round. Must be hard for you to understand that feeling 😂😂😂😂🤷🏾

Waterboy Eddie is right...Bron has a 40% win rate in the finals. In fact, LeBron is the only one with under .500 record in that list 🤣🤣

Who are your top 4 NBA teams for the next 5yrs?
You guys agree with this list? I think OKC, Spurs, and Mavs are a lock to be among the best over the next 5yrs barring injuries. Having Utha in that tier is a bold choice.
Utah is very young and had the number 2 pick but coming off a 22 win season and their rookie #2 pick not playing yet, it's bold to have them top 4.

Imagine you can be player A or player B & both would be equally good. However, player A gets 11 titles & player B due to playing more years has the most points. I'd rather be player A.
Career stats don't matter to me...I think Bill winning 11 titles (9 as clear alpha) is more impressive than any career stat though it doesn't make Bill better than LeBron

Regular season, James Harden clears Allen Iverson. Postseason is where it the gap narrows but Harden still is better.
Regular season, Harden 4yr RAPM peaks at 5. Iverson peaks at 24!!
Allen Iverson was very close to James Harden on peak postseason offense.
Inflation adjusted per game:
🔹 Harden is +0.3ast +8TS+ efficiency but -4pts & +1.0tov
Per 75 inflation adjusted:
🔹 Harden is +1.1ast +8TS+ but -0.9pts & +1.5tov
Given Iverson was playing 7.8 poss per game more which leads to inefficiencies, this is debatable but the large efficiency gap is why I give the edge to Harden.

I was ready to say easily Harden but now I think it's debatable. Regular season for sure Harden but given Harden's postseason drop, Iverson is very close to Harden on offense in their postseason peak.

Let me introduce you to someone you may not have heard about. 1970’s Croatian basketball player Kresimir Cosic was a 6’11 center playing modern basketball. A big that that could shoot from outside, could dribble very well, and was a great passer.
He was 2x MVP in Europe and won a gold medal in the 1980 Olympics (silver in 68 and 76).

But MJ is better. Surely you can make a Bron goat case but you’re likely LeTarded and all you have is “I want it to be true”
Jordan better than Bron
✅MJ statistically better
* despite missing at least 3 prime years, MJ lead the league more often in metrics like raptor, ws/48, BPM, etc
✅ MJ far more clutch
* fg% shots to tie or take lead final 25sec (postseason): MJ 53%,LeBron 35%
** Only finals: MJ 4/8 50%, Bron 0-7 0%
* clutch time (final 5min score within 5) of the finals, per 40min: MJ 43.5pts +1.6%rTS, LeBron 30.2ptd -7,6%rTS
✅ MJ more titles FMVPs MVPs
✅ LeBron statistically (gamescore) outplayed in by 24 players in 57 series vs MJ 2 in 37 series. Thats 7.8x higher rate for LeBron!! (0.42 vs 0.05 per series)
✅ career postseason net rating on off: MJ +18.5, LeBron +9.3
