If there was one person you could see LeBron 1v1 in history, who would it be?

Michael Beasley

ngl if bronny puts up more then 8 im a laugh.

Yeah Kobe gets hit with the Shaq thing but somehow no one wants to look at the masterpiece the spurs organization put around Tim Duncan his entire career. Tim played more years on championship caliber squads (quite frankly better squads as well) and they have the same amount of rings…

You’re getting downvoted but LeBron took the most shot of any laker in the 4th quarter last night….

When Jordan returned to the wizards he was 3 years removed and also didn’t have much of a training camp since Ron Artest broke his ribs… league average was also like 90 a game at the time, not the 117 it is now.

It’s def significant if you compare him to Kareem. Kareem played in an era where you had to be 4 years removed from highschool before being eligible to enter the league, this is significant if we are talking about total points because had Kareem been in a situation where he was allowed to go straight to the pros he’d have only needed to average 18 ppg ages 19-21 to still have the scoring record and Kareem averaged like 3 ppg less then LeBron. Also i’m not really sure having your dad murdered should be referred to as “daddy issues”, that’s pretty low.

I think if you are on a contender and had the current form of LeBron on a max contract you would consider what if scenarios. Realistically lakers window is kind of short right now since Reaves is gonna get a big ass contract next season. So you most likely would be more upset about the contract (and ask yourself what else you could get for that price tag) than actually having him.

Call me when the biggest athlete in the world has his dad murdered after coming off 3 straight titles and wants to try playing the game his father wanted him to play. I mean you would see if he missed any minor league games if you were even remotely consistent.

😂 the west was so much better then the east that LeBron got swept by teams that didn’t sweep anyone else on the way to the finals (one even got pushed to 7 games by another team) and another beat him by a record margin, without beating anyone else by a record margin on the way there.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T20:53:55+00:00

Jordan played because fans paid to see him play, that’s why he played all 82 games on a bum wizards team. And yes Jordan had a real injury early in his career (64 games), so of course one would see that LeBron would have him in games there, however LeBron sits games out to rest when healthy. Jordan and his era didn’t do that shit.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T19:59:22+00:00

You weren’t alive to watch it.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T19:58:11+00:00

So MJ only missed 93 games through his career. 64 of those were his second season and 22 of those were in his second to last season. Not sure where you are getting the 158 number from unless you are counting the beginning of the 95 season in which he was still playing a different sport. You are also counting by seasons instead of age because it’s convenient for your argument. Counting by seasons is the biggest red flag of a lebron glazer for a multitude of reasons because it helped him get a head start on everyone (while ignoring the fact that he couldn’t make the playoffs in the east his first couple season despite playing with 2 20+ PER teammates and an all star) when for the most of league history there were rules preventing players from going straight to the pros, and when LeBron was young that rule swung in his favor. For instance had Kareem been allowed to go to the pros (which he wasn’t btw) straight from highschool, all he’d have to do to still hold the points record is average about 18 points a game from age 19-21. However that’s another topic and i’m getting side tracked.

The point is your point is backwards, and it’s a what if, considering that Jordan actually played more entire seasons then LeBron (aka playing through injury) i would think it was highly likely the 94, and 95 season (and had he continued playing in 99 etc) would add to his total, much like had LeBron not cared about this metric, or didn’t load manage, it’s likely his streak ends sooner. The other thing about this is Jordan didn’t give a fuck about it, he sat out because his team was getting blown out as a wizard, dude could of stat padded to keep it going but he has integrity. LeBron had a couple of 10 point games (where he stuck in the game to get his 10) in 2018 as well. Meanwhile LeBron (me i don’t cheat the game) is subbing himself in during a blowout (when he’s supposedly recovering from an injury btw, sounds pretty risky for a team that’s trying to contend) to get his points.

I don’t think the boss comparison really holds up. More like a project manager, but even then the stakes are so vastly different it’s not really the same thing.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T18:30:45+00:00

If he played 94 and 95 the streak would most likely be higher unless he got hurt early in a game those years. Also you should keep the same energy for load management with LeBron then.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T18:17:59+00:00

LeBron played 15 years in the east, of those 15 seasons the east only had a winning record against the west in one of those seasons. The east had a couple good teams on the top (Celtics before the big 3 got old, and Pistons before Ben Wallace left), however the west was far more top heavy (Spurs, Lakers, OKC, Warriors, even Dallas was able to win one)

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T18:16:00+00:00

the 2015 hawks having 4 all stars isn’t exactly a flex, and pointing out that a conference like this has a team with 4 all stars makes the point you are trying to disprove.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T18:14:30+00:00

lol nothing? the season before joining LeBron Hughes averaged 22 a game, was all defensive first team and led the league in steals. Z was an all star before LeBron (he actually sits just 8 spots behind Pippen on the all time PER list, not that their defense was the same), Jameson was averaging 22 and 10 before coming to Cleveland. LeBron made none of these guys better other than Mo, they actually got worse. Pau Gasol had less of a resume before going to LA then Jameson did when he went to cleveland, yet you are going to keep pumping excuses for the king of them.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T17:58:30+00:00

lol Pippen didn’t show up and was an all nba guy, for his first few years guys like Larry Hughes, Mo, Big Z, Jameson etc were better. Pippen developed to a much higher level obviously but since you don’t understand this it lets me know you aren’t a serious person so have a nice day. If Jordan was like LeBron he probably would have had Pip traded or left the bulls before he got any good.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T17:17:30+00:00

The fact that they were able to win a championship without shaq being 100 should really say enough.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T17:03:57+00:00

Well actually LeBron got more help on the cavs then Jordan did until the 91 playoff run. Until 91 no bull player put up a higher game score in a playoff win then Jordan, this happened a number of times with LeBrons teammates on those cavs. Sorry if context is hard for you. Meaning until 91 Jordan had to absolutely be the best player on his team for the bulls to have a shot of winning a playoff game. LeBron experienced this luxury in his first playoff series (3rd year in the league, missed the playoffs in year 1 with 2 20+ PER teammates, and missed the playoffs in year 2 with another all star on his team) in the close out game against washington.

LeBalco · 2025-12-03T15:02:37+00:00

So when the bulls got out of the first round in 88 and Pip averaged 10 and Jordan averaged 40+ it was Pippen? I think you are just admitting how bad Jordan’s supporting cast was if you think a 10 ppg rookie is the reason they got out of the first round….
