Lebron vs. Jordan: There is no DECISION!!!

And that would be the only argument I would need and not have to write about in this blog post. The actions of one LeBron James not throughout the entire NBA Playoffs, this NBA season, and the last year now after the infamous "DECISION" is why he will never be Michael Jordan!! Lebron is not Kobe, he's not Magic, he's not Bird, and he's not even his teammate DeWanye Wade. I say this because this men not only won titles but they are LEADERS! They are leaders of their franchises they played their careers in and they are all loved and adored by the fans and cities of their franchises.

From "The Decision" last season when Lebron screwed Cleveland over.

This picture comes back to where it all started. Last early July, when Lebron became a free agent and decided to interview with several teams including his old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, to see where he would go. Many have heard that during the 2008 Olympics that D-Wade was convincing him and another really good player in Chris Bosh, from Toronto Raptors, to join together when Bosh's and James' contracts with there teams were up. Low and behold, Bosh signed with the Miami Heat a few days before the decision. Lebron soon followed up and on national television decided to also take his talents to South Beach.

Now, the Lebron supporters argued that he has every right to go to another team when he wanted to. Yes, that was true but if I interviewed for another position and they offered me a better job and more money I would tell my employer beforehand that I have accepted this new position but I would thank them for the opportunity, the experience and wish them the best of luck. This is what we call establishing good relations or references. LeBron showed the exact opposite and Daniel Gund owner of the Cavs found out right about the time we all did. Cavs fans in my mind had every right to be upset.

The Cavaliers eventually ended up having one of their worst seasons (19-63) but they ended up in this years NBA Draft getting the first round #1 and #4 picks and eventually getting back to being competitive. The Heat despite getting to the NBA finals had a disappointing year. They had the 2nd best record in the Eastern Conference 58-24 behind the Chicago Bulls, many experts thought they would be one of the best teams ever with Wade, Bosh, and Lebron. They lost the NBA Finals series 4 games to 2 to the underdog Dallas Mavericks. Another thing I liked was the fact that the Mavericks, especially MVP Dirk Nowiski, handled everything with CLASS!! Something the Heat did not when LeBron and D-Wade were caught on tape making fun of Dirk's sickness. Dirk stepped it up when he needed to dispite that so did his supporting cast of Jason Kidd. Tyson Chandler, and Jason Terry. Not a great supporting cast for the Heat besides the big three or should I say the Big Two and the other guy Chris Bosh, who I think looks like Jar-Jar Binks.

Separated at birth?





You tell me?



   Now Back to the Blog. LeBron also has a habit of quitting on his team when things don't seem to be going right for him. It dates back to losing to Orlando in the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals, and in Game 5 against Boston in Cleveland in his last game as a Cavalier. He went on to a team with Bosh, Wade and other guys. People think Lebron wasn't surrounded with talent in Cleveland. I don't it was the talent that was the problem. Lebron was the one pushing Cleveland to get guys to come play with him. He's just not a leader.

Michael Jordan was a leader. He took guys like Steve Kerr, Bill Cartwright, B.J Armstrong, John Paxson, Will Perdue, Horace Grant, Craig Hodges, Toni Kukoc, John Salley, and Ron Harper realiable assets to those 6 championship teams. Dennis Rodman didn't need a name for himself when he joined the Bulls in 1995 for 3 of their championships he was already a top player and rebounder.

Scottie Pippen, weeks ago, said that LeBron could be better than Jordan. Well Scottie if it werent for Jordan you wouldn't be mentioned as one of the greatest 2nd best team players of all time. Now, it looks like he has retraced what he said.

He said in his past comments that LeBron is a better defender and Jordan a better scorer. I'm sorry but looking at Jordan's bio he was Defensive Player of the year in 1988 and was settled on the NBA All-Defensive Team 9 times in his career.

Many of you of my readers remembered watching Jordan as well. I'm almost 30 and I still remember those great Bulls teams they had and the battles with the Pistons, Lakers, Celtics, and Knicks teams that were really good as well.

From what I can tell Lebron is a follower, not a leader. He followed Chris Bosh(JAR JAR Binks) to Miami and joined D-Wade who has already won a championship to try to dominate. Now they just need to win at least one or a few more than just one or the whole thing will be a failure. LeBron needs to win won to justify his legacy. But, more importantly he needs to change his image a bit in order to have the right attitude instead of trying to listen to backlash at his critics and just go out there and play. Because right now his actions show me that he is not this SELF PROCLAIMED KING JAMES that the media has made him out to be. People are laughing at LeBron and he needs to be more humbled if he really wants to win and become one of the greatest or he would be totally the greatest NBA player to never win a Title. He needs to make an Inter DECISION on how he would conduct himself if he wants to be the player we all know he can be.

I'm D-Money and that's my Two Cents!!!!
