1-on-1: Jordan vs LeBron. Who ya got?

[beardown07]

I'd take quite a few players over Lebron for the final shot. Jordan was a far superior shooter to Lebron.

That's really Lebron's biggest weakness. He has no go to offensive move.

He does. It's called the Run-away Mack Truck. :rollseyes:

Talent in the nba might be considered worse now than in the past but there are 8 more teams now than there were in 1980 I think. Imagine getting rid of (8x14) 112 NBA players. The other 20+ teams would be better, and the perceived talent level would be higher. You'd also get more points scored and more of a team game because Kyrie would have better talent around him.

I think that's a flaw in today's player overall. In a close game, you KNEW Jordan was going to that fade away jumper, and there was nothing you could do to stop it. The Dream Shake. The sky hook. These are go to moves. Lebron doesn't even drive to the hole that much in a close game anymore, he always settles for a jump shot.

I'm talking about a play you can always get, in the flow of the offense, that is unstoppable. Players today just don't develop that in their games now.

I think the fundamental concepts of the game are lacking in today's game. The athleticism is higher, but the fundamental skills are not.

Lebron is FAR superior as a defender. Jordan couldn't guard PGs, SGs, SFs, PFs, and centers......he could guard SGs, that's about it. It really isn't close.

That's ridiculous, man. If that were the case, Lebron would have won championships in Cleveland. It's simply not true.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Lebron is way faster than you give him credit for. There is a reason he has guarded PG's and shut him down. Jordan isn't faster than anyone he has guarded and guarded well.

I can't believe you idiots think LeDouche would ever beat Jordan 1 on 1. 1 on 1 is one of Michael's greatest strengths dumbasses.


Michael would be talking before the game and the entire time during and he would be in LeBron's head immediately.

LeBron has a feeble mind. Jordan is the smartest and strongest minded competitor to ever live.

You have no idea what you are talkn about. The more shit you talk to LBJ, better he plays. MSG with Spike Lee in his ear puts up 50 and triple-double. He would that shit talk and just thrive on it.

Sorry he isn't perfect. But now he is a different player he can guard 1 through 5. He has posts moves, shooting better then ever from outside. He is playn perfect bball.

Definitely agree with you there. Very few players seem to be able to do anything outside of jump real high and maybe hit a 3 or two.......

You guys do have to take into account the fact that LeBron would be shitting in his pants just at the thought of going up against the greatest of all time. His game would be in the shitter vs. Jordan as he'd be a deer in headlights.

IMO

I think there has been nobody that has done as good in 5 on 5 as Jordan. He wasn't the fastest, strongest, or even the most talented, but he somehow was able to make things happen. Those who played with him were better than they normally would be. He was very creative. There's been nobody in basketball to lead a team better.

LeBron James has the size, the speed, the strength, and the talent. He is very good at finding the weakness in his opponent and getting past him, and he has that amazing dunk. Jordan was good at it too, but James is better. James was always NBA's most talented, but he wasn't always "The Man" on the team. He went to Miami and Wade was the captain. He wasn't always the one who got that lifted the team when needed. Jordan was.

With James's God-given talent, I think he would beat Jordan 1 on 1. But 5 on 5, James's leadership would not come close to Jordan's. Jordan would look better with a team around him.

That's what I said.

Jordan would be all up in his head.

He would be talking during the game too and making LeBron frustrated and insecure. Just like any other legit player does to him.

LeBron is terrified of Kobe. Think how he'd be vs Jordan. He's a fucking pussy. Look at Kobe telling him to take the shot and he just keeps passing it away like a giant vagina. Then afterwards Kobe is yelling at Lebron like "god damn dude what is wrong with you?"

Jordan takes that shot 100 times out of 100.


LeBron tries to laugh it off but Kobe is dead serious looking at him like "no dude, you acted like a straight up bitch" and then LeBron just puts his head down and pouts in the post game interview.
