After all these years, the LeBron James vs Michael Jordan debate has never stopped, as there is always a time when this discussion arises. Considering how it is being done, it does not seem like it will end anytime soon. James’ accomplishments are always compared with Jordan’s at some point, and this time was no different.
However, what is interesting here is especially after the Los Angeles Lakers’ performance this season, questions are being asked about James’ performance. In addition, the injuries that he suffered during the games also contributed to his trolling.

At the present moment, the internet is full of trolls complaining about James‘ game and the Laker’s record, as well as their losses. This situation certainly provides a chance for another debate to be held between James and Jordan.
Recently on Twitter, a list was posted mentioning most playoff games with 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists. There was not a lot of support for James from the fans. NBA fans criticized LeBron James’ strange stat with Larry Bird and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The trolls targeting LeBron James on the internet won’t stop any time soon
Looking at the stats of the players, James does have the most playoff games with 30+ points, with 118 games. Even if we look at their performance on board, there are some aspects that they do better than others.
The reason for this is James is considered a more efficient player, as he is also a better passer and rebounder than Michael Jordan. If we compare Jordan with James, Jordan has a higher percentage of free throws. Since they have not yet played against one another, many questions arise as to who is the best.
There was a lot of reaction from the fans on Twitter about James’ games this season. It is obvious that the fans were angry at James.
As some even mentioned: “Where’s Michael Jordan The Ultimate Playoff Performer?”
