i don't buy that argument. they are different, sure, but not for those reasons. mj's fame didn't come at the end of his career, it came early on. the be like mike campaign, the nike endorsements.. all that was pretty early on and he didn't fold under the pressure. he just kept getting better and better.admittedly, the era had a lot to do with mj's greatness. his style and the product endorsements were unprecedented for a single athlete. sure, given the internet, constant media coverage, twitter and all that, james has a different kind of pressure, so it's hard to compare the two. but i don't see jordan carrying himself the way james has through this whole dynasty thing, as well as the loss in the finals. James has good ball skills, but he's not a born leader like jordan was. maybe in a few years we can compare the two, but not right now. there's simply no comparison.
- Jordan didnt win anything until he was 27. James is 26. I dont get why people think this loss is the end of him.CygnusZero4
