“Mahomes the Lebron James to Tom Brady’s Michael Jordan”: Chiefs Star-led Super Bowl Comeback Win Draws Ultimate NBA Comparison

Patrick Mahomes put an end to the Super Bowl thriller with his impressive comeback in overtime. He helped the Kansas City Chiefs take home their 3rd championship trophy in the last five years. Truly announcing the arrival of a new dynasty after the Tom Brady era. And fans on the internet refused to keep calm, as they drew parallels with NBA legends like Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

While the NBA debates on the GOAT conversation are still far from getting a judgement, fans have jumped into conclusions and made comparisons between NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes with LeBron James. One user wrote, “Mahomes the Lebron James to Tom Brady’s Michael Jordan.” Following are some reactions from fans.

These comparisons are the reflections of times when the Los Angeles Lakers superstar turned around the games from the brink of loss.

The most notable instance was the insane 3-1 comeback in the NBA Finals 2016. The mighty Golden State Warriors took a massive 3-1 lead, leaving it extremely impossible for the Cleveland Cavaliers to come back. However, beating all odds, the Cavs came back, winning all three remaining games. Eventually, stamping James’ authority in the NBA world.

Similarly, Patrick Mahomes pulled off a magic. As an unexpected turn of events, the Super Bowl LVIII went into overtime, leaving the fans in a tense situation. With 10 seconds left on the clock, Mahomes threw a clutch pass to Mecole Hardman for a walk-off touchdown. Eventually, taking the Chiefs 25-22 win.

Apart from the impressive pass, he also recorded 2 touchdowns and one interception. The way the first half went, it may have seemed like the Chiefs are far from getting their hands on the trophy. But, the Kansas side turned it around with clutch plays at the end.

Mahomes reveals his NBA comparison

Days before the Super Bowl event, Patrick Mahomes revealed his NBA comparison to the press. And it is none other than Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry. He said, “If I played basketball, I’d be just like Steph Curry. I got the shot. I just got to get a couple extra reps… a couple shots up… I’d be shooting just like him. That’s who I’d be.”

Nevertheless, Mahomes is great in his own way and doesn’t really require a comparison to showcase his greatness.
