They don't matter to me for Brady whatsoever. I rank Mahomes and Montana over him. [Reply]

The ring argument is the only argument that's required. LeBron isn't even in front of Kobe. People like Kobe better than LeBron. People like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar more. People like Bill Russell better and big shot Bob.
In the end, if it was evident that LeBron was the best you wouldn't have to try so hard. [Reply]

It's an incredibly stupid one though and it is a self-defeating one for MJ in particular.
Mahomes is also almost certainly not going to have as many rings as Brady but everyone is gonna know who the better QB was at the end of his career. [Reply]

Mahomes is off to a very phenomenal start and is arguably a top 5 QB as is all time right now. He still has to have some longevity and at least catch Montana from a rings perspective before we can have the GOAT discussion with Brady, IMO.
I think LeBron is the greatest of his era and has the longevity-like dude is doing stuff at almost 40 that no one has ever done. But Jordan basically lost years of his prime to retirement AND started in the league after LeBron did age wise and still has all the accolades.
If Kawahi somehow is healthy and wins Finals MVP with the Clippers, I’m ready to have a dialogue that he has as much or a better PO resume than LeBron. [Reply]

If the majority thinks Brady was the greatest QB ever, they have no clue what they are talking about. [Reply]

It’s not ‘fact’, it’s YOUR opinion. And the majority of the sports world disagrees with you. The majority see Brady as the GOAT in football and MJ in basketball.
I happen to agree with you on Brady, but I also recognize my opinion is not the majority consensus. [Reply]

This might be the craziest thing posted in this thread this season. And that's including Arrow posts. [Reply]
