Pippen Says Lebron has surpassed Jordan statistically

[True Lakers Fan]

i CLEARLY never liked him. thought that was my choice...

no i DON'T want him playing for my team...

no, i hope the guy NEVER wins another title...

i should lie...?

If your wife asks you does she look fat in a dress - the answer is yes

If you don't like LeBron - it is your choice. I don't like him either and like you do not want to see him play for the Lakers.

That being said - I have looked at the numbers and LeBron is pretty close statistically speaking to Michael Jordan, but he has not passed him as stated by the troll that started this thread. My fault for referring to Kobe's five rings being more than LeBron's 3 - then they brought Him into the discussion even though the thread was about Michael Jordan vs LeBron James. Of course they had to bring his Kobe's numbers because Kobe trails both LeBron and Michael by a few numbers in the statistics. I still maintain, however that 5 championships for Kobe is a statistic and counts toward evaluating the player.

Look, @lebron23james can post some outlandish stuff at time. But this was not a troll thread. The OP was actually a comment made by Scottie Pippen.

LeBron is very close to Jordan statiscally. It would be easy to interprete either player as better statistically depending on what you weigh more. LeBron and Kobe are not very close statistically.

No, because what the board really needed was a MJ vs Lebron vs Kobe thread.

Must have been almost a whole week since we had one.

He posted an article written on Y! Sports.

Look at you going out of your way to start shit again.

Just pointing out the obvious, which isn't very clear to some...

Keep defending the troll though. Very Wiggy-esque of you.

for my part in it i was responding to the "mindless haters" comment...

edit:meant "gaping" haters. that man's nothing to gape at...

 

[GNG]

Scottie Pippen says LeBron, statistically speaking, is 'probably ahead of Jordan'

I agree.

 

[GNG]

5 Rings is greater than 3 rings

So you passed first grade math...

 

[GNG]

Hmm, still not as many rings as MJ, stat wise. Just saying.

Number of rings is overrated... It's a team accomplishment.

You sound pissed because your boy only has three

Yeah - that's the spin until LeBron gets more - but if you believe that shit - then he wouldn't have been saying that they was going to win 7 straight - so obviously - that's a load of crap

Dirk only has one.

YES IT WAS - WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS DEBATE OVER AND OVER ALREADY

I wasn't speaking specifically about LeBron but rather about team accomplishments.

Using the phrase Team accomplishment is a nice spin, but the assists in LeBron's column don't become assists if the player he passed the ball too actually makes the bucket - so the assists is a team accomplishment as well. The points under LeBron's name don't become totals unless other players set him up with a screen, pick an roll and etc, so that too is an accomplishment - so you can cut the crap about what's what

Definition of trolling:

Make a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting and angry response from them.

There are some troll responses here, probably even some by the original poster, but the OP on this thread does not meet this definition. He posted an article written by someone else expressing a viewpoint he legitimately believes. sorry if that pisses you off, but that doesn't make it trolling. And it is a new spin on the debate that has been hashed out countless times.

I call it like I see it.

I will agree with anybody if they are in the right. I don't agree with @lebron23james opinion, but he posted a valid thread. Instead, people tried to derail it by joking on Pippen's character (probably deserved).

Now, I challenge you to find a single troll post on this thread from OP. There isn't one. Saying that posting an legit article from a major site is trolling is ridiculous.

Now, there are some people making inflammatory posts on here. @lebron23james isn't one. At least not in this thread.

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

I was expecting her to be more fugly, and have a 'do from her old mans Blazer days.


Kinda disappointed.

I dunno she seems to look an awful lot like Horace Grant

It's another MJ vs Lebron vs Kobe thread. One of the hundreds (a lot started by the OP) that we have on this subject.

Why do we need another?

We don't need any of those threads to be honest.

But, the article posted is current and relevant to the ongoing discussion because it presents a somewhat new case for LeBron. Admittedly that case is made by a player who is biased and also doesn't seem to really know what the stats are.

Still, of all the threads started by OP, this may be the one that doesn't have any troll comments in it by him.
