What Makes The King Vs Michael Bordan

The Goat v.s The King
There are many good even great players to play the game of basketball such as Larry Bird, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Wilt Chamberlain. There is a bunch of chatter going on around the world debating whether Michael Jordan or Lebron James is better. Many people would say that Lebron James is the best player to play in the NBA to this day. I would have to disagree and say that Michael Jordan is the best player ever.
Michael Jordan statistically beats Lebron in regular season points per game, steals, and turnovers, but Lebron beats him in assists, and rebounds, they are both tied in blocks per game at .8. Through total stats in their whole careers Jordan beats Lebron in points, steals, and blocks. Lebron just tied and passed
Jordan in total games played on November 7, 2017 with a win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Michael also beats Lebron in three point and free throw percentage while James takes total field goal percentage. In their best seasons Michael Jordan averages more points, steals, and blocks again while James has more rebounds and assists.
The most important fact that I have not mentioned yet is that Michael Jordan has more Championship rings than Lebron 6-3.
Many people believe that is the only reason why Jordan is better, but it’s much more than that. Jordan has more game winners which means he is a clutch performer. He has a better go-ahead game winner percentage than Lebron does which means he could win the game for you if your down. But it is not just that MJ won six titles. It is that he went 6–0 in the Finals, whereas LeBron is currently 3–4. Some see this as an argument for Jordan and his postseason clutchness. But it also shows that LeBron has been better at getting to the Finals, whereas Jordan often failed to reach
them.
Jordan is almost certainly the greatest scorer ever to play the sport.
He led the NBA in scoring 10 times, more than anybody, in 15 seasons. The exceptions: his rookie year, the year he got injured, the year he came back from baseball, and his two years with the Wizards. Basically, he led the NBA in scoring for the entirety of his prime, and it was a lengthy prime. Sometimes he did it by astronomical amounts — in 1986–87, he scored 37.1 points per game when nobody else in the NBA cracked 30. He shot a lot, leading the NBA in usage rate eight times, but was remarkably efficient, finishing his career with a .497 field goal percentage. Nobody in the league’s modern era has shot so frequently and so well, James does not compare. He has led the NBA in scoring only once. His career high is 31.4 points per game, which would be MJ’s seventh-best season. Jordan had 39 career 50-point games; James has 10. But James is not all that bad, pulling down a rebound per game more than Jordan, and has had 72 career triple-doubles against Jordan’s 30. LeBron’s lead should expand in the years to come, as James had more triple-doubles this year — 14 — than in any previous season of his
career.
Something they both have in common is that they both played other sports other than basketball. LeBron James played wide receiver for St. Vincent-St. Mary's football team and was recruited by some Division I programs, including Notre Dame. As a sophomore, he was named first team all-state, and as a junior, he helped lead the Fighting Irish to the state semifinals. Michael Jordan retired from the NBA during the peak of his career to be a minor league baseball player for a year and a half. When he left the Bulls organization retired his number 23. He ended up coming back to play and wore the number 45 for sentimental reasons of the murder of his father.
They are both two of the greatest players to reshape the sport of basketball. They have both made children, teens, and some adults want to be like them. Michael Jordan has proven that he is the best player ever and has left his ghost on the court for others to chase. He even has his name own dunk named after him jumping from the free throw line and throwing it down for a hard slam. Lebron does too, when he was going against the Atlanta Hawks in 2009 he caught a fast break and cocked his arm so far back that it looked like he was touching his shoes. These dunks have made the NBA more creative pouring in exhilarating flashy dunks that have left fans speechless. Their sons in particular, have been watching them play for years and wanted to be just like them.
