But what exactly is the bias? The LeBron > MJ crowd are mostly commentators trying to get people talking (similar to McEnroe with his sensationalism) and also some ex-opponents and teammates of Jordan that are bitter.
Aside from that LeBron has pretty much been the undisputed best player in the world for at least a decade now. You talk to some people and it isn't close even today when the guy is possibly the oldest 33 year old athlete in history. Games like this actually show why in a roundabout way, if he isn't phenomenal he's often been on teams that have no prayer. His team is outgunned vs. Boston, they were also outgunned against Indy and Toronto. I think most would say the team this year would be lucky to win 30 games if you replace him with an average forward. Ultimately this is a team game and you can't simply count rings IMO to determine who is best. If you did then Kobe = Magic and is greater than LeBron and Bill Russell would make MJ look like a scrub. The last time LeBron was outplayed in a playoff series by anyone was in the 2011 finals.
If you think he's overrated you can say it, no one here will bite your head off as you know (well maybe BS haha). I know you are a big Steph fan and that's cool. Again if you think Curry > LeBron that's fine. Me personally when it comes to LeBron, I think he's literally the only player in the league that automatically makes any team a legit contender. Put him on the Nets or anyone else and they are suddenly a threat to reach at least the finals.
