And one thing I haven't seen you comment on yet is how James has either quit (Cavs vs. Celtics) or no-showed (Heat vs. Mavs).
He doesn't even has his data correct. The only thing LBJ and KAJ have above other great players is longevity... it's why they are the top two scorers of all time. Both are all time greats... but in my view not the GOAT. Maybe if LBJ plays until he's 50 or 60 he will get to the number of championships Jordan won...but he would have to be an excellent recruiter to do so...and take a pay cut.
Longevity very much matters in the GOAT conversation, but average stats favor LeBron in just about everything except PPG.
I think most look at the peak of a career more so than the longevity.
