As far as this idea that Jordan had a super team. Well sure but it was all drafted and not built through FA and players colluding with one another. Also just to remind people Rodman was traded to the Bulls from the Spurs for Will Perdue.

This chart says it all.

Percentage of positive team VORP contributed from players acquired by the draft for each NBA champion, 1980-2016.

The East was diluted in the mid 80s. Jordan's first playoff team went 30-52. Lebron's 35-47 record wasn't good enough to make the playoffs in the 2004 East

His first season was in 84-85 and they were 38-44. His second season they were 30-52 but he was hurt and only played 18 games. That was the season they played the champion Celtics and he had his 63 pt historic playoff performance.

Also the East wasn't near as diluted as today since back then they only had 11 teams in the East and 12 in the West.

Jordan made the all defensive team for nine seasons and was voted defensive player of the year one year. Not only did Lebron disappear in the finals against the Mavs, but he got lit up by Jason ****ing Terry.

If you want to talk diluted, the NBA added 6 franchises between 1988 and 1995.

Imagine LeBron on those Bulls teams instead of Michael. I don’t think many of those finals games would have been that close if it was LeBron’s team.

That’s just my .2 tho

The best and most clutch player in NBA history. They'll have to add his latest buzzer beater.

Yea I’m sure he would’ve done much better tha 6 for 6 in 6 or less :rolleyes:

He couldn’t beat Dirk with Wade and Bosh, but he somehow would’ve done better than that?

He would’ve lost at least once and Pippen along with the rest of his teammates would’ve received all of the blame from Lebron fans.

LMAO

You so crazy KC:

Finals game-winners/tie-ers with 25 seconds or less
– Jordan 4/8 (50%)
– LeBron 0/5 (0%)

LeBron is a soft bitch. Mike was the hardest man to ever play the game. That's where the comparison starts and ends.

Can you imagine how much crying LeBron would do in a world where he could be hand checked and the big guys are all WAY bigger than he is?

They would have beaten the shit out of him in Jordan's day.

Every player in Jordan's day was 8'6" and weighed 550 pounds. The Monstars in Space Jam were molded from real NBA players of the day!

I've got bad news for you, Lebron would have throttled dudes if they would have tried to hand check him.
