As the Denver Nuggets clash with the Miami Heat in the 2023 NBA Finals, fans try to find a way to remain entertained during rest days.
LeBron James is always a name that brings a lot of attention, and one fan recently compared the King’s era to Michael Jordan’s, making it clear that Bron will let other players win during his watch, which never happened when Jordan played at his best.
“Another player is about to eat in what I’m told is ‘LeBron’s era.’
“No one ate once Michael Jordan won and played a full season,” this fan wrote on Twitter.

The LeBron era has seen plenty of players win over the King, and some have taken him out on the way to the championship. Tim Duncan beat him twice, first in 2007 (which is fine since LeBron was only 22) and then in 2014, preventing him from three-peating.
Kawhi Leonard was also a part of the Spurs team that beat LeBron in 2014 and took Finals MVP honors. In the middle of that, Dirk Nowitzki had a magical run and beat the Miami Heat Big 3 in the 2011 NBA Finals.
Stephen Curry beat him three times in the Finals, 2015, 2017, and 2018, including two with Kevin Durant as a teammate. Kawhi Leonard would win his second NBA championship and Finals MVP in 2019, the same season James joined the Los Angeles Lakers.
Giannis Antetokounmpo won in 2021, Stephen Curry won again in 2022, and even though James beat the Chef in this year’s playoffs, he’s not winning the championship. Now Jimmy Butler or Nikola Jokic will lead their respective team to the promised land, signing their names on this list.
LeBron James Has The Same Number Of Rings As Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson And Draymond Green
LeBron is one of the greatest players in the history of the game and definitely the best player of this generation, but he indeed saw a lot of people winning in front of his face. You can say he wasn’t always a part of competitive teams, or the Warriors of the late 2010s were overpowered, but after that, James struggled to make an impact.
He tried to work his magic with the Los Angeles Lakers and only worked out for one season. They went all the way to the NBA Finals and won the championship in 2020, but after that, the Lakers haven’t found success.
Right now, he has the same number of rings as Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green, making it clear he wasn’t the clear dominator of this era in terms of rings.
They lost to Nikola Jokic this season, and the Denver Nuggets are now two wins away from the 2023 NBA championship. On the other hand, the Miami Heat, led by Jimmy Butler and the coach LeBron tried to get fired in 2014, could shock the world and beat the Nuggets to win another championship.
