I’ve recently gone down the rabbit hole of Jordan shit tonight and this combo of stats blew my mind.
He’s never been a point guard for an extended time. I know he played point guard at the end of a season and racked up 10 triple doubles out of 11 games. Out of his decently lengthy career he’s barely done it but… he still put up 11+ assists a game in a finals and only 2 other players in history have done this. Both point guards their whole careers(Cousey and Magic).
Then 2 finals later he sets the finals ppg record at 41 points.
Both of these have not been broken since those years 30-32 years ago.
Bonus: he set the playoff scoring total record in the playoffs in the year between those. That hasn’t been broken either
He won all 3 years to support the awesomeness even further
Dafuq was this dude on???
LeBron is just as competitive, just a stupid argument. The reason Jordan is the GOAT is his privileged upbringing compared to LeBron. LeBron had no one to teach him how to shoot and other basics at a young age. If LeBron’s name was LeBron Curry born to Dell Curry he would have been the GOAT. Jordan is just way better technically than LeBron
MJs dad was a mechanic and his family had a basic middle class background. What are you talking about? lol Also there was significantly more programs to develop young basketball talent by the time LeBron was coming up.
