    The reason for this is because James complains every time he goes on a drive and doesn't score. Every. Single. Time.


    Nobody is saying Jordan or anyone else doesn't complain. But James is habitual.

    Maybe it's habitual because he does get fouled nearly every time he drives. I've watched the guy play for 13 years. Nobody gets fouled more than LeBron. Just because he's strong enough to finish through the contact, doesn't mean it's not a foul.

    Wrong. I agree he gets fouled a ton, but even when he doesn't he whines....just like nearly EVERY single other player in the NBA.

    I didn't like MJ...but only would argue Lebron in favor of MJ in one category: Game 7's....I just don't have any history with MJ and them :evilgrin:






    In all fairness Lebron is the most overall all around complete player the game has seen ability and athleticism wise...that all said though I think Mike Greenburg said it best, "With MJ there was never a doubt he was the best player on the court any given night and ALWAYS rose to the occassion...Lebron we simply haven't seen that." To me it isn't a knock to Lebron but a nod to MJ...and it is an honor LeBron even gets justified comparisons at times to MJ.

    Bingo, on Cops when they roll up to the scene and there is a group of people, it is the guy with no shirt on that gets arrested every time.

    LOL you guys crack me up!

    I grew up in a Laker household....I would watch re-runs of Laker games before my time even...Magic, Worthy, Scott, Woolridge, Thompson, Green Kareem, Cooper.....man I idolized those guys. So naturally I wasn't a "huge" fan of any other greatness....

    ....I will never say anyone at all is the best player ever besides MJ, but I can set aside my personal "not liking" of him to say that. Dude was just unreal. I think one can admire and defend a player without being a fan necessarily.

    It's kinda like as a Packer fan I'm not a fan of Walter Payton...but I still think he is a better runner than Emmitt (not Barry though).
