ESPN loves lebron.


ESPN hasnt been so far friendly about the lakers for the past what? 8 years? especially anti-kobe (im sure the rape case had a little bit to do with it)


but lakers hands down is the best basketball franchise in the world.


yes bill russel won 11, but in what? a 8 team league?


the lakers from Mikan and Jim Pollard to West, Wilt, Goodrich (so sad that Elgin Baylor the protoype for Dr.J, MJ, Drexler, Kobe, T-Mac, Carter, etc etc couldnt win won with them, retired halfway through the season the year that they won), to Kareem, Magic, Worthy, Cooper, Byron, Wilkes, Norm Nixon, to Shaq, Kobe (, Fisher, Shaw, Rice, Horry, Fox, To Kobe (24), Pau, Bynum, Odom, Farmar, Vujacic, Ariza, Artest


its a no brainer, we've been consistent with talent and championship contention (and championships) for little over half a century.


no other franchise comes even close, not even those green bastards.

WHY NOT? THERE ARE A LOT OF PLAYERS WHO WERE ON JORDAN'S LEVEL, JUST NOT AS GLORIFIED, MOSTLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY DIDNT ENTER THE LEAGUE IN A DAY AND AGE WHEN MARKETING BEGAN TAKING OFF....BE A LAMB, NOT A SHEEP. I KNOW U HOLD JORDAN CLOSE TO UR HEART BECAUSE HE DEFINES THE 90S, BUT MAGIC WAS THE GREATEST AT WHAT HE DID, JUST LIKE JORDAN...JORDAN HAD MORE ENDORSEMENT OPPURTUNITIES; HE WAS THE FIRST FACE OF THE LEAGUE IN TERMS OF BRANDING- SPACE JAM, NIKE, GATORADE, WHEATIES...THESE OPPURTUNITIES PROPELLED JORDAN TO BEIN VIEWED AS A LARGER THAN LIFE FIGURE....OSCAR ROBERTSON AND ELGIN BAYLOR NEVER HAD THESE SAME OPPURTUNITIES, BUT HAD THEY ENTERED THE LEAGUE IN 84, WE'D BE HEARIN THEIR NAMES INSTEAD OF JORDAN'S.......IN TERMS OF BASKETBALL SKILL, THERE ARE ABOUT 10 NBA PLAYERS WHO WERE THE BEST AT WHAT THEY DID..  THEY ALL GET A 10/10 AND NONE IS GREATER THAN THE OTHER. MAGIC IS ONE OF 'EM. JORDAN BEIN TALKED ABOUT LIKE SOME MYTHICAL CREATURE WHO WAS HEAD-AND-SHOULDERS ABOVE ANYONE WAS ALL A PRODUCT OF DAVID STERN AND THE NBA, BECAUSE THEY HAD AN AGENDA, AND THAT AGENDA IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF PROPOGANDA. DON'T GET ME WRONG, JORDAN IS UNTOUCHABLE, I AINT SAYIN OTHERWISE, BUT THE GENERAL MASSES WERE MADE TO VIEW HIM AS A GOD AMONGST MEN, AND THE BULLS IN THE 80S WOULDA NEVER THREEPEATED WITH THE SHOWTIME LAKERS AND LARRY BIRD'S CELTICS AROUND.

the only players you can compare to MJ are either Oscar Robertson and Lebron James based on a pure talent stand point or Bill Russell placed on a winner and MVP standpoint.



anyways 17 > 16      fake titles don't count.

[Sccit]

the only players you can compare to MJ .. LeBron James

prime example of how marketing owns the mind of the average consumer


and this guy calls himself a celtic fan...he said lebron james before he said larry bird
