I can most certainly make mistakes when digging up stats. Even with my mistake the difference is pretty dann minimal. So LeBron has been better in the playoffs on defense according to that stat. Jordan still averaged more steals and more points. I'm not blind to how great LeBron is and he is on a level very close to the one Jordan reached. But he isnt there and he has not surpassed him either and if he was going to he needed to do it already.


Go back and watch some Jordan games throughout his Chicago years. Watch pre title first 3 Pete 2nd 3 pete. Watch the 18 game season playoffs he got swept in.


Then go back and watch the mavericks and spurs put a basketball clinic on LeBron. Watch the magic in 09 game 6. Watch him refuse to shake hands after losing in the ecf finals to the magic. Watch him collude with superstars to make super teams.


He had a shot to be better than Jordan and as a basketball fan I was hoping I would see it, but I didnt.
