When you say he's not a better scorer than Jordan... but he's first... If Jordan was a scorer first and LeBron is the passer first, and the passer first has more points than the scorer first... Just let it go... LeBron is not a natural scorer. That's what makes it worse. The non-scoring mind is leading the most selfish stats... If Jordan had Kareem's scoring record, If Jordan has John Stockton's assist record, if Jordan had Bill Russell's rings, I get it. But Jordan is not No. 1 in any of the categories.

There is no doubt that LeBron James has a solid GOAT case, especially since he is the all-time leading scorer and has had an overall excellent career. However, Michael Jordan is still a lot of people's GOAT, and it looks as though the debate will not end soon.
