He'd be unquestionably the best of all time if he didn't lose most of the Finals he's been in.
People overlook the teams Jordan had around him. Pippin (for one) is one of the most overlooked players of all time but was overshadowed by being on the same team as Jordan. Put Pippin on the Pistons, and the Bulls lose at least a few of those Championships. Heck, don’t put him on the Pistons, just put him back on the SuperSonics and replace him with an above average small forward and the Bulls lose.

LeFlop for sure
LeBaby as well
But you are right @LuFins-Dad the team helps... it also bothers me a little that LeBron would pick and move teams to get the best chance at a championship instead of just sticking with a team and building with it. I know it's unrealistic, but it makes me appreciate players like that more... even in other sports, like Ripken and Jeter, or Polamalu and Big Ben, and so forth.

He is difficult to like, the more you watch him.
The early returns on his kid are that he wouldn't have sniffed the NBA if not for nepotism. Nowhere to hide on the court though.
I dont follow basket ball that much, but did read a similar article. He got something like USD$10MM contract all guaranteed, which is quite unusual for his ability.
He will last as long as his father is still on the team.

Fact is, you put 5 Jordans up against 5 LeBrons, LeBron wins 9 out of 10.

Lebron doesn't even play one on one, after he got consistently beat by also-ran teammates.
