The new Olivia Rodrigo album is like watching LeBron go from Cleveland to Miami like, “oh, I didn’t realize there was possibly another level this person could go to”
I'm happy to see more people come around to LeBron being the GOAT.
However, it is beyond disrespectful to put LeBron & Tom Brady in the same sentence.
Tom Brady is not even clear of several other QBs from his own era (Peyton, Rodgers, Brees, Mahomes) AND he got significantly worse in the playoffs. His entire GOAT case is based around rings he won in the most ideal situations imaginable with unprecedented amounts of luck (and cheating). He never carried a bad team anywhere.
LeBron is the clear cut best player of his era and he gets significantly better in the playoffs. He has carried flawed rosters the majority of his career. He doesn't need rings to make his GOAT case b/c his performance speaks for itself. His rings are the proverbial cherry on top of the sundae, not the sundae itself. He's literally the exact opposite of Brady.
LeBron is like a Peyton Manning who got better in the playoffs, or Mahomes if he had his current resume without Kelce/Tyreek to throw to.
