"I don't think MJ ever had a Game 7 in the Finals ... [people] act like he did it all on his own ..."
"They forget the shot by Paxon on the left wing ..."
"MJ had nothing to do with that play"

That's on fans giving him so much credit for 6 rings. For some stupid reason, some NBA fans thing Jordan did everything to win those rings. Kinda helps when u had one of the top rebounders, defenders, coaches, and a good bench on ur side. Jordan was the main reason why the bills won 6 rings, but not the only reason

if Lebron actually watched the game he s referring to, Jordan dropped i think 38 per in that series...also in that specific game Jordan had scored every point in the 4th quarter for the Bulls until the John Paxson 3.....

Lebron aint just pointing out the obvious to idiot, casual fans.
He trying to close the gap between him and MJ without even stepping on the court ...

Fair.
So - "Ripping" isnt the right word.
"Jordan has teammates" ...
"He doesent play 5 positions at once"
That's ? is given... it has nothing to do with his greatness.
So what's Lebron's angle ... Why even mention it?

I don't know but lebron looks up to jordan he just said he wish he could talk to him and pick his brain a couple years ago and said he's chasing the ghost in chicago a few weeks ago
He wasn't throwing shots he was tryin to big up the role players and botched that cuz the play he was talking about he was wrong and jordan scored all of the bulls points in the 4th quarter of that game 6 BEFORE paxson hit the shot. -
Optimistic take.
Hard to imagine him messing up that context; given that he is a historian and student of the game.
Possible tho. -
Thread title is misleading. If you actually listen to what LeBron said on that podcast he didn't rip MJ.

Listen to the podcast. It was within the context of what him and Jessie Williams were talking about -
Cool. I'll give it a listen tommorow.
You would have thought how SAS and Max went at em, it was a different story. I figured they would have listened to the tape. -

Lebron needs to stop chasing Jordan and just do him, Mike didnt chase Russel and it turned out fine for him.

Ummm if I'm not mistaken on that 3 thay Paxson hit..... wasn't it Jordan who kicked the ball out to Paxson after drawing the defender away from him on the drive? So Jordan had nothing to do with that?

Nope. Jordan was the inbounder -
This is a false argument. Nobody claims MJ won all his championships solo. Most MJ fans have no problem admitting he couldn't get that championship until he got Pippen. And his team wasn't setting win records until they had Rodman. But so what? Lebron didn't have good teams? He lost two championships with champion calibre teams. And yeah, some of this losses came from his teammates falling short. But he also choked on multiple occasions himself. That's one thing that can never be said about MJ.
MJ been taking a couple shots at Lebron, so I got no problem with him shooting back, but he gotta come better than this.
One a sidenote, I ? hate Stephen A. ? gets loud and obnoxious for no reason. I can't imagine having to sit in a studio with that clown every day. -

Lol I'm not a lebron fan. I like watching him play but I'm not a diehard fan. I was obviously talking about his last 3 titles. He still had great players around him the first 3 peat. -
All the kobe fans that hate lebron got pissued about this i feel bad for pippen ? is getting less and less shine over the years

Exactly. Yet, people act like Bulls were a loaded roster.
Luc Longley? Cliff Levingston? Will Perdue? Bill Wennington? Jud Buechler? -

He in the hall of fame and was named top 50 man.He gets plenty of recognition matter of fact he gets TOO much shine
I've seen dudes say they'd take pippen over larry bird which is laughable.Pippen was a solid complimentary player not this potential franchise sf nostalgia leads people to believe -
