I give LeBron a pass for 2007. That was probably the least talented team to ever make the finals other than LeBron. They had no chance whatsoever against the Spurs. I'm not going to compare LeBron to Jordan until LeBron's career is over. I also think that Jordan probably would have won 1-2 more titles if he didn't leave for baseball.

No point comparing. Two different eras and two different positions. But in spirit of the OP, I will give my opinion which I will try to keep as unbiased as possible, but the fact that I hate Lebron makes this difficult. 

 

MJ in my eyes will forever be GOAT. The competitiveness that he has beats out on any player since. Lebron is the most physically imposing player ever. I compare him and Magic moreso than him and MJ due to the size and passing ability.

 

Also Im hoping Lebron doesn't ever beat 6 championships because I am one of the ppl that feels ripped off by him teaming with Wade and Bosh. I don't blame him and don't feel it takes away from the championships or his play but on a personal note I want him to not surpass MJ for that reason.

The 07 Cavs were the worst Finals team ever. LeBron carrying those bums to the finals was a showing of his greatness.

LeBron getting swept in the Finals shows his greatness.

The 06-07 Cavs supporting cast was just as good as the 90-91 Bulls. Keep making Bron Bron lame excuses. Jordan's first championship team was not that good. Jordan was the only all star on that team. Grant & Pippen were both very solid but neither were stars. 90-91 was before Pippen emerged as a star. The other 2 starters, Paxson & Cartwright, as well as the entire bench, were complete garbage. Gooden, Hughes, & Ilgauskas were good players back in 06-07. They all had very good years. The Cavs bench was 100x more productive.

NBA Finals (91 vs 07)

Fg%-Pts-Reb-Ast-Stl-Blk-Tov

Jordan- 56% 31 7 12 3 2 3

LeBron- 36% 22 7 7 1 1 6

Bulls- 51% 70 pts 32 reb 16 ast 7 stl 3 blk 9 tov

Cavs- 41% 60 pts 34 reb 10 ast 5 stl 2 blk 5 tov

The biggest difference in those teams was Jordan vs LeBron, not the supporting casts.

You can't be serious.  You can make fun of LeBron about a lot of things, but the 07 Cavs were trash.

This argument is stupid. MJ and Kobe didn't have to go team up with others because they already had allstars and hall of famers on their teams.

Why can't we just say both are great players and leave it at that?

There wasn't an all star or hofer on the 91 Bulls. Just Jordan.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
