![]() ![]() His FG of 50% proves he was better at shooting then Lebron, who is only 46%, so tell me…how is Lebron better? How in the world do you even give the advantage to Lebron? How? Michael Jordan was far better at the fundamentals, superior first step (arguably the most broken first step in NBA History), far better choice of shots. Outside Shooting…Michael Jordan>Lebron James. Jordan was a phenomenal passer, everyone seems to “forget” this, and although his numbers may not stack up in the assist department to the likes of say Magic (considering his position wasn’t built for it) however during his tenure when he played the PG position he had double digit balanced stats proving that the man was a Passer, oh yeah, I think he won MvP that year too, go figure. How does Lebron play better “defense” when Michael Jordan has Proven that he was the BEST Defensive Player of his Era, the only one to rival MJ during his tenure was Scottie Pippen, and MJ winning a DPY Award Proves this that MJ>Lebron. Somehow, the article above is of someone who is arguably way too young to have seen Michael Jordan play period.įirstly, Michael Jordan BEATS out Lebron in all categories besides “possibly” Rebounds, that’s it, and even then, this would be arguably dead EVEN. this is one of the reasons I like lebron better than kobe because lebron is not trying to be like someone else. its hard to watch because he’s trying to be like the person who has already done that been there and looked much better doing it. its actually a pathetic re-enactment of the more superior jordan. Kobe just tries toooo hard to look like jordan and never really developed an identity of his own. he can jump but it definitely isn’t smooth. Lebron looks more like a football player turned basketball player. he was an artisan, a master of his craft and no one looked or looks better than him playing the game of basketball. Jordan represented more than just numbers. robert horry has 7 ! is he better than Jordan ? ![]() Why is this a question anyway’s? It isn’t always about the stats. shaq was in his prime and without him, take away those 3 because they weren’t winning without shaq. That said, I like lebron better than kobe. what does this tell me? when he was in his zone, no one is better. he then took three years off because he was bored. Question: Which player do you think was/is better in his prime? From "The Scores Report." I hope he stays as focused and dedicated as he seems today. My overall assessment today: Lebron is the superior player. Lebron basically is the bench coach for Cleveland. ![]() Jordan had a coach and mentor in Phil Jackson. Intangibles: Six titles make me go with Jordan as a leader and winner, but Lebron is also a leader. Driving to the basket: Jordan might have been a bit more creative, but Lebron is incredibly strong. Outside shooting: Jordan improved as he got older, but Lebron has better range. Lebron is a good passer but Cleveland’s style of offense and his penchant for dribbling and one on one play makes me say advantage Jordan.Ĥ. Passing: I like Jordan, but he had the advantage of Phil Jackson’s coaching and triangle offense, which had more motion and thus more opportunities for assists. Lebron is taller but seemingly is out of rebounding position more than Jordan. Rebounding: As a rebounder Jordan was instinctive in his positioning, thus ending up with numerous triple doubles. Lebron defends well and is a superb shot blocker when he wants to be. Defense: As a defender Jordan was a consistent all pro, but he was not a shot blocker. The Chicago Bulls are playing the Cleveland Cavaliers in round one of the NBA playoffs, and I just cannot resist comparing Michael Jordan and Lebron James.ġ. ![]()
