For as well made as this video is he leaves out one of the most important metric in this debate and that is level of competition. Glaring mistake in my opinion - you can actually see the difference when you look at the footage. Anyone connected to sports, youth sports knows that coaching is constantly getting better, the pipeline for finding and developing young talent is getting better, and given the money and opportunity that goes along the NBA (credit to MJ for that) the talent, skills, and ability of each new generation of players just gets better and better. LeBron has had to play against much better competition. LeBron had had to continually develop his game and he has which is why his overall value and numbers have remained high, while MJ’s numbers declined. Michael was the ultimate competitor, but LeBron is the greatest player of all time. Think about this if you need more proof - how many times did MJ defend a Center? LeBron’s ability, even into his late thirties, to play all five positions, to guard any player on the court including Centers is not something MJ could do. Another important metric left out of this video and the GOAT debate IMHO. Loved MJ, but LeBron has surpassed him, and that is great for the game.

Dude if it feels like the video is dragging on than that’s not good.

Yea that’s not a compliment saying it felt longer than what it was but I get what you’re trying to say

@@A5AP_SWEATSHIRT I think he’s trying to say in terms of the amount of content and the amazing formatting of it, not that it dragged on, I guess more so that he was “able to fit 4 hours of content in a 15 minute video” is one way you could interpret it

For real 😂😂

u tripping fym it felt like 4 hours?? it felt like 15 mins

Here's the thing though. Labrons last seasons are close to his peak seasons. He now scores like 2pts less per game to his career highs. The guy is insane for playing at such a high level at 39. Strangely, Jordan retired at 40, joining the NBA after 3 years in college and retired twice before his final retirement.

Stats are meaningless because they didn’t play against the same players. There’s no controlled variable

Jordan on the Wiz was a DAWG. Go back and check out those games before his injury in the first season.

This makes no sense. Then you should exclude wizards years as well for MJ lol. Again, this is just you stanning hard and panicking. Be fair when you want to exclude years. You can sort advance stats yourself anyways on tons of sites btw

@@MrGigglios First 15 seasons played. MJ's 14th and 15th were his 14th and 15th like LeBron's were his 14th and 15th, he just had a 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st... After 15 seasons, MJ was a slightly better scorer. James had a better overall record, more assists/game, more rebounds/game, and twice as many triple doubles. In terms of advanced stats, James had a higher points/shot attempt, higher points/replacement, etc. Still see a slight edge for Jordan in a number of fronts, but you have to look at LeBron's first 15 against Jordan's first 15 as these would inevitably be better than later years. Put another way, each additional year usually brings down the average a bit. Certainly was and would've been the case for Jordan. He chose to retire earlier to have higher average but less total volume for his numbers. His call. Our debate.

That’s kinda how I see it, too. Also, unlike most sports, the powers that be in the NBA have never been shy about changing rules to try and make the game more interesting. The game reinvents itself all the time. A style of play (or player) who dominates in one era might be far more (or less) effective if he played 10 or 20 years before or after he actually did. The NBA is so different in 2024 than it was in 1994. Or even 2004. Or 2014.

Well said. But I still do get stuck on championships as a requirement to be the 'greatest'. To never lose a finals and never have one go to a game 7 is, to me, definitive. Bill Russell is Jordan's equal in this regard, for his rings and for his dominance over all-timer Wilt Chamberlain. Jordan overcame the NBA's all-time assist leader and a very good, very deep and well-coached Utah Jazz team. Missing from this video is an analysis of post-season metrics.

This video was fucking trash!! It added nothing to the overall debate/discussion. It was JUST as bad as the ESPN and Undisputed takes, everybody do yourself a favor and check out uncut hoops video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UwmAEKDhGsk.html

I don't agree with how he described their careers, writing subjectively like that you can make either look better and I think he made Lebron look better. Realistically you could have formulated those last 2 minutes to favor MJ's narrative by just phrasing it differently. Example : Jordan was drafted on a terrible team with crack smokers, but weathered the storm of the Celtics, Pistons and Lakers to take the torch and become the dynasty that nobody could match, he had to retire to give other people the chance to win a ring. Lebron on the other side was drafted to a similarly terrible team, but he escaped the grind and formed 3 super teams whilst 4 rings in more tries.

Okay but it leaves out two important metrics - level of competition (LeBron has had much tougher competition), and overall versatility - ability to play all five positions - clear advantage to LeBron on both, and then add in the fact that he is a much better person - husband, father, teammate, ambassador for the game and for standing up for important issues outside the game, well you know how I feel about this question.

Plus mj retired early

This is such an easy way out of the GOAT debate, you're side-stepping it and not engaging with the topic at hand. Just because the GOAT debate is difficult due to differences over different time period, doesn't mean it's impossible nor does it mean the debate is invalid.

@@aldrichemrys he’s right there were way different rules in Jordan’s era the lebrons era for example illegal defense this was a rule that made it strictly man to man there was only one defender in your way another person couldn’t leave his guy to help out that was illegal defense now imagine if lebron only had to blow pass one person

Bro Look at the Video by DANGERProductions I like that one even better

@@jsgr5382 You’re silly fam. It’s almost like you didn’t actually read the comment

Lebron and Jordan are equal. It depends on their teammates. Lebrons value grows as his teammates are worse. Jordan is the opposite.

@@theotherview1716 they are not equal. Jordan is better he can fit in more systems. You can plug him into any situation and they will have some form of success and his production won’t fluctuate.

Never done with the 90s! 80s & 90s were TOUGH! I’ve seen most of the greats play live and I’ve never seen anyone better than MJ if you take everything in consideration! I don’t care if LBJ gets 10 rings, if I’m starting a team MJ is #1 period! And I’ll say again, you all should be ashamed for not mentioning Kobe

J Mendez Magic took His team to the Finals His rookie yr, started at center, won final's MVP, Kareem didn't play cause He was hurt. And your acting like Lebron losing is impressive. Jordan early in His career faced more top 50 legends than any current player. And when He faced them He dropped record numbers like 63pts vs The Celtics (The Champs) in 86'. Lebron is only relevant cause the league is watered down.

@@SwaggerLikeUz u acting like magic carried the lakers through the whole playoffs by hisself with a roster full of bums. kareem in the playoffs before getting hurt was putting 32 pts 12 rebounds 3 asts along with 3 blocks. no one is saying lebron losing is impressive but are talking about how he brought a team full of make a wish kids to the finals. The argument about how jordan faced more top 50 players is ain’t really effective since none of these current players really faced any top 50 players. Not only that the 63 pts jordan dropped against the celtics ended up in a loss. now i’m not saying it’s not impressive but if you arguing about lebron’s 2007 run not being impressive since he loss in the finals, then you can say the same about the 63 pts which are both dumb. saying lebron is only relevant cause he plays in a “watered down league” is retarded. so going against the dynasty warriors dynasty spurs big 3 celtics bulls led by mvp d rose just to name a few is watered down. come on now pls tell me how the league is watered down. Edit: forgot to say how he had to go against the orlando magic led by superstar dwight howard who was winning 3 straight dpoys and the detroit pistons who at the time were contenders

@@SwaggerLikeUz bro just hating at this point 😭, they both the goats. One dominated the most talented basketball era ever, the other won every final he was playing so stop being a child

Makes me realize that Michael Jordan is the Usain Bolt of the NBA and LeBron is the Eliud Kipchoge. Both are masters of their thing, Michael at a fast unbeatable career at the fastest level, LeBron at sustained excellence. I’ve been done with the GOAT debates since Kobe passed, I’ve learned to just appreciate the greatness we get to watch live while it’s happening instead of fighting and reducing one side or the other.

He’s done videos on the most difficult championships, which correlates to the Era’s topic you mentioned.

If all of that is put into perspective then kobe is the greatest

Exactly, ultimately there are things that will forever haunt LeBron's GOAT debate regardless of what stats he finishes with. 1. His meltdown against Dallas. 2. Having a LOSING record in the finals - yes this matters and don't give me he faced a super team take since LeBron created multiple super teams and Harden did more against said super team. I mean thank God for the fake bubble championship which jmx has placed as one of the easiest championships of all time otherwise.... 3. He ran and created multiple super teams to stack the deck. 4. LeBron's longevity is great but modern medicine/diet and rule changes and scheduling helped out with that a lot. 5. LeBron's scoring while great would not be as high without the 3 sec rule, just imagine if all his career a Gorbert or Giannis or Embiid could just wait in the paint as long as they want for LeBron to drive. 6. LeBron's offense might be great in year 19 but his defense is terrible, he is basically stat padding at this point. 7. LeBron is about to miss the playoffs with a super team he built AND with the affordance of a play in tournament when he is supposedly still in his prime and a top 10 player. 8. Free throw shooting and other holes/intangibles in is game like not having a killer instinct.

@@youngerudit2524 😵‍💫🥱🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Lebron is by far the GOAT.. Jordan played for a long ass time.. 18 or 19 years. He only made all NBA 11 times Jordan spent half of his career losing year after year after year in the very first round And wasn’t even making the all NBA list until he got Scottie pippen this guy is literally bringing up “advanced stats” like PER boban marjonovic has the highest PER of all time those advanced stats are useless You could be efficient in 10 minutes and have super high advanced stats Real stats matter Like points per game, assists per game, blocks, rebounds All that random shit like PER and VORP are for nerdy analytics guys. Analytics ruin the nba lol. They use like fractions and try to determine the best player by advanced metrics that aren’t even real life. Boban has the best advanced stats that exist And teams don’t even want him. Jordan played till he was 39. Lebrons 38. Jordan entered the league at 20 Lebron entered at 18. In Jordan’s era zone defense wasn’t even allowed Everyone had to be “man covered” one on one. Zone defense is what ALL teams use today and is far superior, guys like lebron and Giannis could score 59 a game back then with man defense. Zone defense became allowed after shaq Because the rules Jordan played with made shaq too OP Shaquille O’Neal made the NBA allow a bunch of other forms of defense. Because nobody could one on one stop Shaquille O’Neal And they’ve stayed ever since. Dudes like lebron, Giannis and shaq would have even better numbers than they do if they played with the same rules as Jordan, and wilt and magic and all those guys. That’s something nobody talks about. You had to man check. Then shaq came and there was literally no way to stop him so they changed the rules. The NBA changes the rules FOR Jordan to make it easier for him. And they changed the rules for shaq to make it harder for him. That’s why I think shaq is a top 4 player all time. Lebron would’ve been the same way. Unstoppable, Lebron is better than Jordan by far and has better stats and is just overall greater he’s the goat

It’s very simple. Jordan was more clutch and a better scorer Lebron is a better at everything else and makes his teams better A few additional things. When Jordan retired the first time the bulls still won 50 plus games without him and almost made the finals except for one bad call vs the Knicks Meantime when Lebron left the cavs twice they went from 60 wins to 19 after he left. So he was Personally responsible for 40 more wins. Thts insane Lebrons legacy is hurt with the spurs and mavs loss in the finals however the warrior team that won 70 games and Lebron beat is by far a much better team than any teams Jordan faced in the finals In conclusion. For one game. U take Jordan. For a season u take Lebron and if u think Kobe is on the level of these two guys u should be banned from ever talking about basketball

The "accolades" of dpoy etc. Is a shit argument because those are popularity contests and LeBron has been snubbed on numerous occasions in order to protect Jordan's legacy its glaringly obvious 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

This video lacks nuance and context. U can't talk about who's the best when they played in different eras. Least U can do is compare their eras and the competition they faced to win rings. Lebron has clearly played in the most skilled era and faced some of the greatest NBA dynasties ever assembled. MJ won 10 scoring title in his era, scoring more than 30 ppg in his prime. Lebron has only 1, maybe 2 this season. That's how Jxmy presented his stats in this video. But it's apple to oranges: Would MJ win 10 scoring titles in an era with Harden, KD, Kobe, Steph ??? Would MJ win has many rings in an era with Kobe & Shaq? Spurs Dynasty? Warriors Dynasty ? Big 3 Celtics ? MJ had similar Dynasties when he came to the league but couldn't beat them: Bird's Celtics or Magic's Lakers until they got old. Also Jxmy shows a graphs of their stats where MJ has 15 seasons and Lebron 18 seasons, completely irrelevant and pointless since Lebron has played more season...? All this to bring longevity? Lebron will be the all time scoring leader in less seasons and less games AND less figure attempts than Kareem. This is the context you need to bring when u do comparisons. Otherwise u resume everything to numbers and it's meaningless; u can make ur first NBA finals win and retire with the best numbers to have the greatest numbers ever. Compare the players era, their talent, their competition AND the stats.

for me its the killer mentality, win or die trying... thats the 1 thing missing in lebron.

He then returned to the finals in 2011 and stayed there for another 7 years in a row. Different teams, GMs & Coaches but he kept coming back, meaning he is an unstoppable player.

He didn't mention the many other analytics categories that lebron leads over mj. Took only the basic ones that favour MJ. The fact the 90's era the bulls dominated cane after 2 expansion eras with all the super teams gone. LeBron went through super teamadter super team, literally one after another. In their prime. The fact MJ never guards the best players , isn't responsible for playmaking or rebounding. All he had to was score. Then there's the off the court stuff. MJ is a degenerate bum. LeBron is annoying but a saint compared to MJ. Just a far better human being. Things that should be mentioned. He left out all that and more and I didn't stop while typing this to even think. I'll bet I could think of many more things. This was biased cause he knows most of his audience or sheep like jordanites and he'll get clicks and praise

@williamgibson If you liked this one you should definitely look up LeBron Vs Jordan The GOAT debate Trust me that video is almost at 15 million view and is the best comparison anyone has ever seen. Funny story it's the only video on that channel lol

Really? You never thought about that? That is a key factor in why Lebron is the goat in my opinion. He is the greatest pure basketball player of all time. Yes Jordan could score better, but that’s one piece of being a basketball player.

Bruh how

Bruh what

@@ZroBangerz what about defense though, you have to take that into account as well

@@Thomson07 lebron isnt bad on defense, if he wanted to he prolly could of got a couple of dpoys but towards the end of the miami stint he got lazy on d. jordan didnt have to guard the best player on the opposing team for all 6 of his rings lebron is normally always guarding the best opposing player. another argument for the defensive side of basketball is that the players are just getting better and harder to guard, theres not many people that find new ways to defend people but theres always new offensive moves and ways to look at offense popping up

Yeah he had that special aura. It's hard to quantify and I'm a big science and numbers guy. But there was something about him. You just couldn't bet against him. I think that also contributed to his almost mythical status. We as humans love the supernatural, the non explainable, the mysterious and mythical. Jordan somehow encapsulates all of that. Kobe was the only one who came close to that since then but he had too many human flaws and also as a player. But since Kobe did came close to it his death felt so surreal. Because he also appeared larger than life. LeBron is special but he just doesn't have that aura. He always looks and feels beatable somehow.

Part of what makes MJ the goat in my eyes was his character. People want to compare stats, attributes, athletic ability and championships. No one ever compares their character. Lebron self-proclaiming himself as the goat ends the debate real quick for me, personally.

Lebron the goat IMO Bc he can last so long and can still be a top 10-5 player

@@iliketurtles7782 MJ was top 10 in scoring and won 32 of the 60 games he played in when he was 38/39. He had kwame Brown and Ty Lue to work with that season. A much younger Kobe proved that's not an easy task. LeBron was 36/37 this season. MJ was also trending upward after starting slow from not playing professionally and entering the MVP race before getting hurt. After the slow start, he was averaging almost 30 before getting hurt. He was 9th in the league in scoring and climbing. His first year in Washington is overlooked because he started slow and got injured and he fell off the next year when he was 40. But for those 60 games he took a bad team to a winning record. So despite what Jimmy has no evidence for, there's actual proof he would've won on a bad team. Considering he actually did it... 2 years older than LeBron was this season at that.

@Zoo Keeper you don’t even think he’s top 10…

toronto raptors😅

Except lebron didn’t retire for 3 years and came into the nba way earlier so he played way more minutes lmao

Ugh. It's not ur fault @Vinsent Keefer. But I can already see where this is going

@@yahiakamel2747 not Lebron’s fault that he didn’t have a gambling addiction

@@yahiakamel2747 and how is that relevant to what he said?

Is your Russ picture ironic?
