Who is the GOAT

"He pushed for a Russell Westbrook trade that has ripped apart the Lakers’ present."

Anyone but people who don't watch the NBA should have known this move would fail.

I like how so much of the GM Bron saga can be summed up by tweeting emojis

well if there's 1 person that'll change my mind on the subject....its definitely JJ Reddick. I wonder what Grayson Allen thinks? Trajan Langdon? Christian Laettner? Danny Ferry? these are things I need to know.

What’s the point count for Lebron?

I also heard something about how the game he’s likely to break Kareem’s record is not gonna be on national tv cuz of some local media contract?

Tonight on TNT.

Lulz.

The debate ends tonight

[TDub]

no it doesn't.

but doesn't surprise me that points is your only metric

[Deleted User 863]

Championships shouldn't be the only metric either.

Otherwise Bill Russell is ahead of MJ.


LeBron is firmly #2 all time for me.

[TDub]

what does Jon Scheyer say

[TDub]

I dont remember saying championships is the only metric either

It's getting harder and harder to argue against lebron. All time points is maybe the 10th reason he's the goat

Idk if that's fair to say. The Lakers were going nowhere fast before westbrook

congrats Lebron

but this is ridiculous

I am going to preface this by saying LeBron very well may be the GOAT and I take no issue with those who feel he is.
That being said, serious question/s. What changed last night in the "debate"? Did you feel Kareem was the GOAT?
I 100% feel being the all time scoring champ is a BIG feather in LeBron's cap but I can't say him becoming the scoring champ should be thee determining factor that tips the scale. Too many variables.

P.S. I have seen nothing in regards to Jordan congratulating LeBron. If he hasn't, then it's petty and shame on him.

P.S.S. - I can't help but wonder if it was "intentional" that Magic is wearing Jordan gear in this video.

Stopping the game for that long was absolutely ridiculous. They could have done all that after the game.

Everyone know there would be pomp and circumstance pretty much immediately after he did it. I feel it should have been the first whistle after he did it but my opinion doesn't matter. My question is the refs blew the whistle right after he made the shot. According to the box score there was no timeout. Right or wrong, I feel the Lakers should have called one - or at least been charged with one.

Speaking of "ridiculous", losing to the Thunder at home in a game in which Isaiah freaking Joe and Mike freaking Muscala were factors was absolutely ridiculous.
Can someone please explain to me why Darvin Ham has a job being the HC of the Lakers? He may be worse than Luke Walton.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

WTF?
Can't help but question if this is a lack of "chemistry" on display.

[pdub]

I could see why someone would move LeBron to GOAT because of this. No, he’s not a different player than he was the moment before he broke the all time points record but Jordan wasn’t a different player the moment before he got his sixth ring which is the standard leading argument for him.

[randylahey]

I used to always argue against lebron being the goat for a long time. I always rooted against him. But eventually got more realistic and put personal bias aside

When you look at everything he ha accomplished his his career, his consistent greatness, his longevity, his ability to basically play one 1-5/the fact that he is essentially a point guard in a power forwards body, his physical and athletic dominance, the fact he's carried over matched teams to the finals, coming back from down 3-1 in the finals against a 73 win team...

Hes first in all time points now AND is gonna finish 3rd or 4th in all time assists. That's absurd.

You are looking at the goat
