Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2210763, member: 488"] I also think LeBron gets penalized in the debate vs. Jordan for the fact that he entered the league way sooner. LeBron gets penalized for losing to the Spurs in the finals at age 22. When Jordan was 22 he got bounced in the first round against Milwaukee. LeBron's two worst playoff series occurred in his age 25 and 26 seasons, same age Jordan was when he had probably his worst two playoff series ever against Detroit. This being LeBron's 8th finals appearance, it's the 6th time he'll have been an underdog, meaning even if he loses, he has actually outperformed expectations on the game's biggest stage. I would still take Jordan in this debate, but a lot of the narratives being pumped out run contrary to some of the facts. [/QUOTE]
