LeBron James is on a remarkable run but took to Twitter on Wednesday to express his thoughts on how people so often try to compare him to Michael Jordan.
5 Reasons Why LeBron James Could Be, Or Already Is, Better Than Michael Jordan

Former Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy made a very bold statement on the Dan Le Batard Show Wednesday, saying that LeBron James is already better than Michael Jordan.
Ever since James won his first title this past summer, the arguments of LeBron possibly being the GOAT have been continuing to rage on. This past week has shown a lot of...

LeBron James owes his fans one shot at the NBA Slam Dunk Contest. All of the all-time greats have participated in this contest. James even told TNT analyst Cheryl Miller in 2009 he would enter the contest, only to back out months later.
Is James simply afraid? I believe he is. James feels he has everything to lose and nothing to gain. The last time James...

To even be in the Michael Jordan discussion you need at least three rings. Until then there is really nothing to talk about. Lebron is having a great stretch of games and he is totally locked into Optimus Bron mode, but none of that matters.
Bron’s legacy will depend on how much jewelry he has when it is all said and done.
From a practice sense, they aren’t the same type of player...

LeBron James is having a history making season. He’s accomplishing things that we’ve never seen before as basketball fans. For an NBA record six games, LeBron has scored 30 or more on 60% shooting. There was a four game stretch during this same time frame that LeBron was at 75% shooting. Let that marinate for a second.
Check out a few highlights from Heat vs. Blazers

Michael Jordan said in an interview with NBA TV that, if given a choice, he would take Bryant over LeBron James. His primary reason being the jewelry case of Kobe Bryant that LeBron James cannot match yet. Here it is quoted by MJ: ”
Five beats one every time I look at it. And not that (James) won’t get five. He may get more than that, but five is bigger than one...

I know what Stan Van Gundy was trying to say when he made this quote on the Dan Le Batard Show. It is very simple, he is simply saying at this point in his career, Lebron is a more skilled player than Michael Jordan.
That part of it is based in some truth, mainly because I don’t think we have ever seen anyone as skilled and physically gifted as Lebron. He is some crazy hybrid...

A team’s success is based on the system, and how well the pieces fit together, as they are on the level of talent. As the Lakers have shown on two separate occasions, simply getting a group of future Hall of Fame players does not necessarily ensure success (see 2003 – 2004 season and the current rosters).
As Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili’s time in a San Antonio Spurs...

The Sixers have gone through their up's and down's all season long, including last night. Although the Wells Fargo Center struggles to fill up when the team hits the court, we still love them.
The most beloved Sixer may be the obvious choice, but it is true. If you are a Sixers fan, whether you go to the games or not, you love Jrue Holiday. Sure he is no Lebron James, sure...
