Depends which MJ ur talking about. Peak MJ (u know the one that never titled and won like 4 playoff series) is probably the GOAT. Winner MJ v current lebron is more interesting, I think its reasonable to take labron for a season and give Jordan the edge as a closer. I still assert that both a) lebron is underrated as a closer and b) the idea that MJ 'learned how to win' is ridic...but Jordan was a closer of the likes we've never seen.
I think one thing that is never really considered when this discussion comes up, is that its certainly possible that the 'clutch situation' seems to favor a Jordan rather than a lebron since he's a more effective mid-range player. When u match both of them up there's lots of things lebron does better like rebounding/passing/defense, but when defenses tighten up and driving is less of an option, Jordan certainly has an edge when u need to score which wud lead to him being more successful in clutch situations.

So well thought out that I will not be posting the vid of Bad Teacher.. eh why not, it's a great short clip anyway.
Will LeBron ever develop a mid-range game, that might come close to Jordan's? He seriously worked and is continuing to work on his post game..
