I doubt it will actually happen, but I'm still crossing my fingers that it wont.

Lebron has to get those 8 championships somehw right? After all hes gonna look really foolish if he only gets 3.
Lebron wishes he had an ounce of Jordan in him.

I could see why this could be bad from the NBA's POV but don't get why people would be hating Lebron. He just wants more rings and he'll take less money to make that happen. Some of the QBs should take note

I will preface this by saying Lebron's not as good a player as MJ, but I hate seeing statements like this. People want to talk about Lebron having a stacked team, well, MJ played with two Hall of Famers in Pippen and Rodman. He also played with arguably the best three point shooter of all time in Steve Kerr. Who's Lebron have? Dwayne Wade, who is a shell of his former self, and Chris Bosh, who is an all-star for today's game, but he's probably not HoF worthy. Lebron has never had as good of a team as MJ had.

Rodman was only with MJ for the 2nd three peat, which means Jordan won more championships than LeBron has NOW. Pippen and Kerr were DRAFTED by the Bulls, and not signed by the team to play. The talent in the NBA was much more spread out back when MJ played, and the league today has become much more soft. I'm ready to go to battle on this one

I'm ready to go to battle on this one Lebron is younger NOW than MJ was when he won his third. And you sign draft picks... So just because HOF team was drafted and not signed in FA makes it different? What are we battling about? Specifically.

I'm ready to go to battle on this one Whether they were drafted or signed by the team in FA is irrelevant. The point is people like to talk down Lebron by saying "he can't win a title without superstars around him", when in reality, MJ couldn't either. It's definitely worth noting MJ was with the Bulls for 7 years before he even won his first title. And his first title didn't come until he had Pippen. I agree with your sentence on the second line. That's why I'm not really a fan of today's NBA.

Mo..I watched basketball back then. Pippen was not a superstar. He played good defense. His career high PPG was 22 in 1994.
The other parts of those championships were at best average except for when Rodman was there.
It was 80% MJ , 10% other part of team, and 10% Phil Jackson.
Lebron will NEVER be as good. No matter what he does.

No matter what he does. Pippen not a star?? Lol, the guy is in the freakin' Hall of fame. You don't get there by not doing anything but "playing good defense".. And 22 PPG is a damn good number. Most shooting guards don't even get that, so idk why you're trying to make 22 PPG seem so small. and Steve Kerr was hardly average. Like I said, he's arguably the best three point shooter of all time. Other good players on the Bulls championship teams: Horace Grant (1 time all-star, 4 time 2nd all-defensive team) Bill Cartwright (1 time all-star) BJ Armstrong (1 time all-star) Robert Parish (I shouldn't even have to list Parish's accomplishments. Although I will give you that Parish was at the end of his career with the Bulls.) MJ played with all of those guys over the years. That's like the furthest thing from "an average at best" roster. Lebron has never had a collection of players like that surround him on a team.
