There's LeBron slander happening aka grill master's delight
This is always in relation to Michael Jordan, a top-10 player.

MJ was bounced from the playoffs by Terry Cummings, couldn't figure out Isiah for 3 strait seasons, failed to take the Wizards to the playoffs, and quit in 94, 99, 00 and 01 because he didn't want it enough.
When Jordan was balling people thought he was no Magic who was no Kareem who was no Russell.

Dragging LeBron in 2020 is a foundational tradition.

In __ years Carmelo Anthony Jr Jr will be no LeBron.
It's dribble bias
MJ lost to Shaq, which is v respectable.

Shaq's tiers above Bird, who also bounced him
MJ's most memorable moments are vs the king Bryon Russell and the god Craig Ehlo
MJ's 6 rings ties him with 3 other players, who are behind 9 others who all have more chips... 7 of whom did it in fewer seasons than Jordan.

Still, he was an amazing player who ranks #6-8 all-time.
Sam Jones won 8 championships in a row
I know it's hard to compare the 60s vs the 90s but the 90s were 30 years ago and had 3 years of a shortened 3pt line and expansion.

Anyone up for a Jimmy Butler vs Michael Jordan time travel debate?
