#3 Honours and Awards
LeBron James leads Michael Jordan in only 2 categories here (All-NBA First Team selections and total All-NBA selections). Jordan's statistics sweep the floor with LeBron's in every other category. While James might have a genuine case for league MVP this season, James Harden is the prohibitive favorite and it would be a shock if LeBron did win to emulate Jordan.
LeBron has never truly been in contention for Defensive Player of the Year, while Jordan won the award once and was in the talk for several years. Jordan has more All-Defensive selections and led the league in steals thrice.
While LeBron has put up great scoring totals since his second year in the league, peak Michael Jordan won the scoring title in each of his full seasons starting with his 3rd to his 13th (he only played 17 games in 1994-95). LeBron only won it once in 2007-08, after trailing to Kobe Bryant for much of the season (before Kobe's usage rate reduced with the arrival of Pau Gasol).
