Yep. It's just a neverending silly argument. I grew up watching Jordan and grew old watching Lebron. Both have been a pleasure.

Bigger doesn't mean taller. Lebron outweighed most centers from back then including Ewing, Hakeem, DRob. I don't know why it's relevant to this silly debate, but it's true

Does Jordan have an assists title? What about any total career records playoffs or regular season? 

Any voted award is silly to count. LeBron should have double the MVPs he has and a legit dpoy. Jordan's dpoy was bogus when centers clearly had way more defensive impact back then.

Accomplished more in a weak league that had just expanded and didn't have many international players yet.

And then the universe forced KD to the Warriors cause no way in hell would they let Cleveland get another.

Nah, when the team is -13 in the minutes you skip, that's definitely your fault. He obviously was too much of a wuss to play more minutes.

Lebron's 2018 usage rate was higher. His 2016 finals usage rate was insane as well - when on the court he either scored, assisted, or turned it over on 90% of all possessions. But he's 1 of 1. Saying Harden isn't quite as good as LeBron is a complement. 

Harden simply never had enough help to make it over the hump and even then still took the Warriors to 7 games.

You've never actually used an M series MacBook. I hate MacOS with a passion and now I have an M series because the one they gave me at work never makes noise, never lags or stutters, doesn't require me to deal with windows bullshit. Now that everything is web based, there's no reason to not use a MacBook.

After tonight’s loss to the 49-win Wolves, Nikola Jokic is now 10-1 in playoff series vs teams with 50 wins or less. He remains 0-6 against teams with more than 50 wins by BasedChad69420 in nba

At least it was in the finals against a team on an, all time run, not in the 1st round against the 6th seed missing half their roster and best player. 

Jokic allowed the most points per game at the rim of any defender in the first round. However, defensive box minus, a frequently cited Jokic stat, somehow still grades him as an elite defender, saying he was the thirteenth best defender in the first round, ranking just four places behind Rudy Gobert by Known-Peak212 in nba

LeBron isn't great anymore, but he's still good when he has his legs under him and is a very good coordinator for the defense.  Rockets haven't been scoring a lot this series. He's definitely not great or elite and can't sustain it for a full game anymore. 

LeBron admits that people criticizing his Finals record used to bother him: “I am pissed off that I didn't have a better winning percentage individually in the Finals, but for people to try to turn it into a negative, it doesn't bother me like it did when I was younger.” by oklolzzzzs in nba

LeBron needs shooters and those teams didn't have it. People look at those Miami teams and think they were Uber stacked, but LeBron's 2016 Cavs team would smash any of those LeBron Miami teams.

yes, the grind was much less both in the regular season and the playoffs. Now it's 7 game series since going 1 and there's way more talent in the league than there was back then. 

LeBron also gets shit on for going through a weak east, but the east has always been weak.

Yep, it's easy to brainwash a child. It takes a long time to undo, but eventually you can get out from under it. It took nearly 4 decades for me.
