Then why doesn't he get chastised for not making it or failing prior to those 6 finals. Is it better to win 6 for 6 after failing your first 6 years, or is it better to fail as a result of taking a untalented team to the finals (Sixers with AI or Cavs with Lebron).
This whole perfect in the finals ? is pure nonsense, isn't losing in any round in the playoffs or not making it to the playoffs just as bad as losing in the finals.

I think it has something to do with when u win your first one....he refused to let go.
Jordan could have WON 8th straight....
Lebron has won 2....of he could somehow get the next 4 finals straight....he will be on GOAT status closer to mj...he already is on his way -
Russell won 10 in a row right (1 as a coach), why is he conveniently overlooked in this argument when this logic is applied.

due to the time he played in.......bill played when there were ONLY 8 teams in the league.... Bill russell was a great defender and dude wasnt even the best player on his celtics team...... You cant help when you were born ....the era he played in....he was dominant though -
Hold up.... Bill Russell career FG% was 44 percent? 44 ? PERCENT?
Horrible for a center -
its just another argument people use to praise Jordan while slighting Lebron
MJ is the GOAT, undeniable, but ? want to put him on a place so far in the sky its like he CAN NEVER be touched
there will always be someone to come along and Dethrone the goat.. not saying LBJ is the one, but someone will come.
I just cant stand when ? act like its BLASPHEMOUS to even question another player being CLOSE to how good MJ was. Like its ? seriously saying KOBE aint got ? on MJ even though he only has 1 less ring. (Even though he will likely finish with more points in his career than Mike)
i think LBJ is the best player in the league and has a chance to be better than MJ, but even if he does win 6 + rings they still wont give him his props... some people will NEVER let their Idol be outdone -

I think another thing that it is difficult for people to separate from Jordan was his overall superstar stuff....Jordan was ? huge around the globe... you had ? in Sudan wearing jordan jersey in the jungle......its very hard for people to remove the endorsement jordan when comparing ? like lebron and kobe......
If we simply keep it basketball related...........Jordan could be passed by Lebron or someone else....right now Lebron is on pace to pass him in MVPS and other stats..... -
mj 6/6
duncan 4/5
lbj 2/4

Last time I checked Bill Russell won 11 rings. I may be wrong but I doubt it.

He was though.Jordan was gettin scrutinized(not to the extent that lebron was)before he won his 1st title for losing
Bird,Zeke and Magic had stacked squads in their primes.Mike didn't early in his career and couldn't beat boston and detroit until the bulls as a team got better from the coaching to his teammates -

other than wack posting, irrational threads, and ridiculous statements; there isn't a single topic on this earth that you know more about than any other person. my dude, michael j fox knows more about sitting still than you. Residents of Cleveland, Ohio know more about winning than you do. Antoine Walker knows more about dieting than you, citizens of detroit know more about warmth than you do, Pitbull knows more about being a respectable member of society than you, steven hawking knows more about taking walks in the park than you. but damnit you sure do know your basketball alrightNash and Dantoni = awesome!!!! Lets go -

Yep, some people are showing that they either weren't around or weren't paying attention when MJ was playing. He was getting some of the same treatment that Lebron got, maybe not to the same degree, but MJ actually had to build his stardom after getting to the NBA unlike Lebron who basically had that from day one. You can't take the good without the bad.
Also, let's be real for a second, the title is a little flawed. Let's not act like MJ's first three peat run was with a star studded team. Pippen was still relatively new to the league so he wasn't exactly the HoFer he became. I don't think I would put that first Bull championship team that much higher than I would the team Lebron took to the Finals at least not relative to the competition they faced getting to the Finals. -
Then why doesn't he get chastised for not making it or failing prior to those 6 finals.
Well, when you make the finals 6 times as the leader/best player of the team and win all 6, what happened before that doesn't matter too much, especially years later. -

A jay-z fan thats has a grudge against Jordan.. I'm done.

I don't understand how Jordan being the goat or talking ? or whatever -- hampers how a nikka might feel about another player.
If you wanna have a boy crush on Lebron (or anybody else) -- do you.
If he's your favorite, why do you need validation from anyone else?
Nikka act like Jordan kicked in his door and snatched the Lebron poster off his wall like those Haynes tags.

T/S has no bias at all.
