    Nobody called him the Greatest of all time. He has G.O.A.T talent but does not have the achievements.

    Why turn this into a MJ vs LBJ arguement? The point is he can coexist with others. Thats a strong point, whether u guys accept that or not.

    His first finals were a bonus. Not winning meant nothing negative, but the 2011 Finals will always prevent him from being GOAT.

    Regarding your 2k point(aside from its stupidity): Create an SF and get drafted by the Lakers..

    Drexler and Pippen never played on the same team.

    OK lets look at it this way. U have this team:

    Shaq
    Garnett
    Kobe
    Chris Paul.

    Who do u add, MJ or Lebron?

    here is another one:

    Hakeem
    Duncan
    Bird
    Pierce

    Who do u add? Kobe or Lebron?

    well, plenty of players have done that. Beyond that, no ring is no ring.

    We don't know that he couldn't just win with one star..
    well we know he can only win with 2 stars in their primes.. until he proves us wrong..

    I personally would be very glad to see him prove me wrong.

    The point is LBJ has a unique gift that allows him to coexist. Very few people of his talent level can coexist and people see that as a negative. He is gunna ride that talent to multiple titles and all you will be able to say is stupid things like "He couldnt do it alone".

    Yet you will ignore that his peers couldnt addapt to playing with other great players.

    Based on what? Yeah they are talented, but can they coexist?

    Before the season started everybody was on the Lakers championship boat. Now I know they are unhealthy, but the other situation that we cant ignor is that they cant coexist.

    He has a unique gift to only win when coexisting with two stars. few people of his talent level need to coexist with two more stars to win. he is gonna ride those talents to multiple titles and we will say he couldnt do it alone.

    Yes he has the GOAT ability to stack his team to ensure he faces the least amount of competition.
