LeBron is not better than MJ. It is not close, imo. Why is this dumb thread over 15 pages long. WOW!

No more Worthy and Kareem....waiting on Young Vlade and Elden Campbell....I seriously doubt the Lakers with Magic doing the heavy carrying would have had anything for the Bulls or even the Sonics of that time for that matter.

Ok ima leave you alone and just agree to disagree....but let's not forget what Magic did all series with a injured Worthy and in Game 5 without Worthy:to:...he still went to war....I think he lost Byron Scott for part of game 4 or 5 too...even that series could've turned out differently if everybody is healthy....loss of Worthy is major and I'm not makin light of it,just puttin it out there....let's just say the history of basketball changed and the Bulls dynasty is tainted....I won't call for a asterisk but I truly believe without Magic bein forced out the game they not winning all thos championships...ill still give em 3 or 4.....sidenote we had fukin Mike Dunleavy:childplease: as the coach:laff:

Lakers get a better coach who can manage tofree up Magic from Pippen and can make adjustments:snoop: and they only need sumbody half as good as Worthy to get another ship....I rest my case tho....it is what it is.

no ones running around calling Hakeem the untouchable greatest of all time are they?

and you're making up words. Saying Jordan went against weaker competition is not the same as saying the Bulls played weak competition. The sonics started Hersey Hawkins at the 2, Utah- Jeff Hornacek, and Phoenix Dan Majerle

Is jordan playing 1 on 1? What's the point of naming someone at a specific position when the game is 5 on 5.

I can name random players team start as well.

Was Jordan guarding 5 positions? Oh that's right he couldn't :troll:

you named a specific position and ignored the fact that basketball is 5 on 5

the thunder started perkins and thabo. See how random and stupid this is.

I named the opposing teams starting 2 guard for a reason, are you stupid :what:

Who was LeBron guarding? now look at the bolded and tell me what OKC starting Perkins has to do with anything

idiot, so lebron guarded durant the entire series and vice versa. You ever heard of cross matchups? do you watch basketball?

here's an example

In those 93 Finals, Jordan and KJ often guarded eachother despite playing different positions, it's called matchups.

Who was Jordan guarding against Utah? Anybody of KD's caliber? Oh wait, those cross matchups!!! he probably wounded up on an island against Byron Russell or Howard Eisley every now and then instead of sticking Hornacek. The difficulty :rudy:

Jordan guarded stockton in late game situations in some points.

What is KD's caliber? Jordan in the finals guarded Magic, Clyde, Kevin Johnson, Stockton, and Payton. 4 of the 5 were first ballot HOF's, and KJ was damn good in his prime.

like i said bulls really had the only super team, and in an era where there werent any kobes, dwades, tmacs, etc.. in their prime. thats a big advantage when your best player never has to guard anyone, or when he does theyre always much smaller and not as athletic. the only big man that was a dominant enough scorer to make them pay for being weak at center was olajuwon, but they never met up.
