00:00Michael Jordan versus LeBron James.
00:01Why do you, my nephew, think that LBJ is the greatest of all time instead of Michael Jordan?
00:07Look, it's simple.
00:09Longevity and versatility.
00:10Not only does he score points, defends, three-pointers, he does it all.
00:15Facilitator.
00:17Come on, like, undisputed, go.
00:19Well, I would say this.
00:20I don't know about undisputed.
00:21Here's the thing.
00:21I was young enough to see MJ, his killer instinct, his wedding mentality.
00:25I will say this.
00:26I know that LeBron James is taller, and he's a better passer, and he's probably a better rebounder.
00:31But he's not a better defender.
00:33Michael Jordan was a lockdown defender.
00:34He won Defensive Player of the Year.
00:36I don't think LBJ ever got that.
00:38And, yeah, he could pass.
00:40He just didn't have to.
00:41He would get up above the rim and dunk it, man.
00:44Come on.
00:45Look, my question to that is this.
00:47When Michael Jordan needed a center, okay, he could have stepped in that role and placed center.
00:52When LeBron's teams needed centers, defenders, power forward, point guard, he was always able to step in that role.
00:59And he's even played center a bunch of times when his team needed him or when they didn't have one.
01:02Look, as someone who's a Miami Heat fan, I love LeBron James.
01:06They used to defend him.
01:07I think he's the second best player of all time.
01:09But if you have them play a one-on-one game, even though LeBron James is bigger and stronger than
01:14Michael Jordan,
01:15Michael Jordan would score every—if it was make it, take it, Michael Jordan isn't giving up the ball.
01:19LeBron James, he's too smart and sensitive.
01:22That's why he used to miss a bunch of game winners.
01:24I don't even think MJ would get a shot up.
01:27Do you see the height difference?
01:28He just smacked it down.
01:29Here's the thing.
01:30You watch a lot of these old school—
01:31He would just smack it down.
01:32You watch a lot of these old school 90s highlights in slow motion,
01:35you don't realize that Michael Jordan in his prime would hit his head on the rim.
01:39Every time you show me a 90s highlight, I tell you the same thing.
01:42We're done with the 90s.
01:44You know who's not done with the 90s?
01:46I'm not bored of it.
01:47Let's pull the numbers.
01:48Go.
01:48The numbers are important.
01:50Check this out.
01:51Michael Jordan versus LeBron James.
01:54Thank you to Staffhead Basketball.
01:56Great website if you want to see the truth.
01:58You guys are ready?
01:59Yeah, go down.
01:59Let's reveal the numbers.
02:021,072 games versus 16,022.
02:06Look at the scoring per game over his whole year.
02:0930 points per game.
02:09And there was one year that he averaged 37 points per game.
02:12Now, I will give LeBron better away.
02:14Look at his rebounds and assists.
02:16That's amazing.
02:17If you go down to steals, look at the steals.
02:202.3 per game.
02:21He even used to block more.
02:23Michael Jordan had the hops, dog.
02:25Yeah, but these are like little decimal differences compared to the rebounds, assisting.
02:30And let's not forget who's the top scorer of all time.
02:34True.
02:34And he wasn't even a point guard.
02:36I agree.
02:37I agree.
02:37Now, listen.
02:38But I will say this.
02:39Let me end this on this one.
02:41Well, no.
02:42We got a couple minutes left.
02:44You say that everyone's done with the 90s.
02:46But I see you dressing like the 90s every time you come in here.
02:49Okay?
02:49You got the 90s fashion.
02:51You literally dropped out of 1993.
02:53So, you obviously are not done with the 90s.
02:55Uh-oh.
02:56We're done with the 90s as far as all these MJ and these unks and these old highlights.
03:01The fashion and the culture.
03:02I don't know.
03:04Sauce right there.
03:05No, I will also say this.
03:06I will also say this.
03:07Have you ever owned a pair of Jordans?
03:10Yes, I have.
03:11But not basketball shoes.
03:13Okay.
03:14And what are you wearing right there?
03:16Who's that?
03:16Air Jordan.
03:17Because I have.
03:18Okay.
03:18Jordans, yes.
03:19Do you have any LeBron James branded gear?
03:22Look, he's the go-to basketball.
03:24Not a fashion.
03:25He's the go-to basketball.
03:26He's not the go-to fashion.
03:27I'm in the direction of Gen Z's land.
03:29LARPing detected, my friend.
03:31I came here today to defend my go-to in basketball.
03:34Not in fashion.
03:35I've never owned a pair of LeBrons.
03:37Neither have I owned a pair of Shaks.
03:38But that's probably the best center, right?
03:40For sure.
03:40Don't give a debate.
03:41But we're talking about best basketball pair of all time.
03:43The long-time ones or the revoke ones?
03:44I'm not sure.
03:45I've never owned LeBrons or Shaks.
03:48Just to wrap up this MJ debate.
03:50Forget about the physicality because LeBron James is probably the most physical specimen of all time
03:55as far as being a 6'9 guy who, like you said, can play any position.
03:59But Michael Jordan's killer instinct, his mentality.
04:03LBJ has collapsed mentally on a bunch of games.
04:05We've seen it.
04:06Michael Jordan will put a team on his back and say, we're not going to lose.
04:09He was 6-0 in the NBA Finals.
04:11And you can't ignore him.
04:12Here we go.
04:13Finally.
04:13We got 20 seconds.
04:15Final remark, Joseph.
04:16Look, LeBron's part of the 10K club.
04:18All right?
04:19Every single set, 10K over and 10 Finals appearances.
04:22Here we go.
04:23MJ 6.
04:23Go.
