An interesting question is that if you could pick one player in their absolute prime to anchor a team, who would it be? -
Jordan.WilburHooksHands said:He and Jordan are completely different players. I don't have any problem with someone saying LeBron is better, he has a historically unprecedented game and is playing in the era of superteams. If you had to pick one player in history to start a team with, it's a coin flip.

Not that chinteresting. -

The funny thing is I hate Jordan (#Soonic) and I hate the Tar Heels (#BlueDoovil).WilburHooksHands said:

Lebron or MJ in the new era -
I agree with that top 4, though Magic is close.RaceBannon said:

Lebron or MJ in the new era -
I'm so old I used to argue against Jordan and say that Magic or Kareem or the Doctor or the Russell Celts were better and Jordan hasn't done shit and he'll never have the rings. I even liked Earl Monroe way better. He was who I was in the driveway shooting hoops alone.
I came to accept Jordan as the GOAT, kind of, because I still think the old school guys were way tuffer like you guys think MJ was tuffer than Lebron.
We like the guys we grew up with the best. We rip anyone who comes after and threatens them. Then we accept what is and argue about another one.
But Lebron could have played thug ball if that is what was being played. -
This. Everyone always points to "but LeBron wouldn't be as great against 80's defense!!!" while completely ignoring how much of a defensive monster he'd have been playing in that era.RaceBannon said:I'm so old I used to argue against Jordan and say that Magic or Kareem or the Doctor or the Russell Celts were better and Jordan hasn't done shit and he'll never have the rings.

It's LeBron... mainly because he's the only one who's proven he can single handedly carry a team when everything else is shit. His entire first stint in Cleveland and the 2015 finals when Irving and Love were injured is the proof.WilburHooksHands said:He and Jordan are completely different players.
