Comparing 'apples' in a crate of 'oranges'

Once again the sports media is beside itself  in its incessant desire to promote an argument
comparing two outstanding athletes.

The 'who is better' argument has risen once again comparing LeBron James, who just led
his team to the NBA championship, with Michael Jordan. The discussion has been around
for a couple of years, but now reappears due to James outstanding performance.

But, can we seriously compare individuals in a team sport? Is it fair when 'so many pieces'
must work in unison to achieve success?

The sports media has all the numbers at their fingertips, but no mention of 'team'. Its an
argument that provides no value other than be a 'filler' between commercials.  Tune it out!
