The Front Row

I also suspect you are too young to remember the great Michael Jeffrey Jordan. When LeBron racks up 6 NBA titles, and 6 Finals MVP awards, then let's talk "greatest."

Jordan battled until the last breath he had before breaking through. Jordan didn't switch teams and join forces with 2 all stars and a HOF coach.

This.

Compare the above team to the LeBron era Cavs. Does anyone believe LeBron could not win as many or more with the talent MJ had around him? Any one of those guys would have helped him win the finals the Cavs got swept in (especially Pippen). And what about the coaching?
Another question - could MJ have taken that same Cavs group to the finals the way LeBron did? Really?

He didn't have to. His team got them for him..

Do you think Jordan takes that Cavs team to the Finals?

I am not too young and in fact lived in Chicago during the Jordan era and personally attended a lot of games with those Jordan highlight shots that still keep playing today. Michael Jordan was UNBELIEVABLY great. Better than anyone. Unlike Jordan, I have never seen Lebron in person. But, I have to say, I watch him on TV every time he plays. If I had my pick between a ticket to see Jordan in his prime or Lebron now, I couldn't pick one over the other. I truly believe Lebron will be the greatest of all time and I'm not sure he isn't already.
I could care less Lebron left Cleveland. I also say to those that think Jordan was solo, you sure didn't see Scottie Pippin play. And there were 3 point shooters lying in weight when Jordan was double teamed. And in Jordan II, Dennis Rodman controlled the paint on either end of the floor in addition to Pippin and the 3 point shooting supporting cast.
And if you ever had the pleasure of being in a small group presence with Michael you would have realized the person that held Michael in the highest esteem was Michael himself. And to those that can't forget Lebron's "meltdowns" I was a Bulls fan when Michael melted down so bad that he walked away from the game for a few years. Yes the fans were destroyed. But were they bitter? Not really. Just disappointed.
Let go of the hate and Be Witnesses! This is something that may never be witnessed again.

Reasoning? I need more than MJ was the best, he'd never let his team lose argument. Lebron did it by himself. Micheal couldn't.
