The difference is Jordan set up the Finals winning shots and if they lost there was another game. Lebron bricked 2 shots late and they got lucky getting the rebounds and Allen saved the series and probably saved Lebron's legacy.
LULZ @ The monkey dung this guy posts and expects people to believe. What is this nonsense about saving legacy. Total sewage by the worst in the business.
John Paxson hit the game winner. Jordan setup nothing on that play. The assist came from Horace Grant down in the paint when Paxson's man rotated down low to double up Grant. Paxson hit the wide open three. Then on the in-bound by Phoenix, Horace Grant swatted away Kevin Johnson's game winner in the lane. So I suppose it is safe to say, based off of what you've said about LeBron James, that Horace Grant and John Paxson bailed out Michael Jordan and won him a third title, correct?
Then you throw in "luck" as if players have zero skill whatsoever. Ray Allen, the league's greatest three-point shooter, hits a three. Surprise surprise surprise. Shocking stuff right there. No mention of the big shots that LeBron hit in the game or of how he became an animal in the fourth quarter, DOWN 10, and got the Heat back in the game to even have an opportunity to push the game to overtime.
Strange that you left that unimportant information out.
Back to back championships. Down 3-2 in the NBA Finals to one of the GREATEST dynasty teams of all-time. The GREATEST power forward of all-time. ARGUABLY the GREATEST coach in NBA history...and LeBron got it down. Tell us that story about how LeBron went to Miami to piggyback off of Wade with his bum knees and Chris Bosh with his ZERO points in the biggest game of his career.
Two NBA titles. Two NBA Finals MVPs. Four regular season NBA MVP awards.
Me thinks it is time to shut up.
