    Lebron wouldn't outskill Jordan, he would bulldoze his way in. As good as Jordan is overcoming that physical barrier would be impossible.

    Reduce Lebron's size and strength, Jordan destroys him.

    00s rules or 90s rules. With hand checking Jordan can guard LeBron.

    Are you saying that Jordan, P4P, is better than James?

    Golvokin could beat SSR at middleweight. Middleweight Robinson was overrated. He was the greatest at WW.

    stick to boxing guys. whoever says lebron would just post jordan and score, has not payed attention to when kobe plays hard defense on him. He either passes the ball or gets blocked.

    jordan is even better than kobe on D

    LeBron's D has already been honed by playing without handchecking. This dude is 260-270 pounds and stays in front of and has shut down the quickest point guards in the game (DRose, Tony Parker, etc.) in the playoffs recently.

    What do think would happen if Lebron was also allowed to put a Joe Dumars type handcheck and elbow on Jordan on a move?

    Fade ... Jordan has a way better mid range game. With Jordan it's pick your poison. Try and guard his mid range game and he will beat you off the dribble. Try and guard him off the dribble and he beats you with the midrange game.

    All LeBron has over Jordan is his power game. He is too 1 dimensional to beat Jordan 1 on 1.

    lol. i will sumarize it for you. basically since lebron won his first championship, Espn has been all over lebron nuts, trying to fool the younger audiece or the casual fan into thinking lebron has a chance to be g.o.a.t and i don't blame them, since its good business and makes them money. the problem is that people are starting to believe in this shiiit, when lebron doesn't have half the resume jordan has in the same number of seasons played

    Jordan is a better overall player than LeBron. With that said, because LeBron is bigger I would pick LeBron in a 1 on 1 everytime. All LeBron needs to do is back Jordan up and post him up all day.

    Jordan psyches Bron out and takes his heart and stomps on it. In other words Bron will choke 1 on 1. No one to take the heat off of him, no one to relieve the pressure he chokes like he always does.

    Kobe would have a better chance 1 on 1 against Jordan IMO.
    I think both Jordan and Kobe would beat Lebron 1 on 1.
    And it is all above the shoulders.
