I have never seen a more delusional fan sector in all of sports aside from Matt Ryan fans.
"Wilt put up superior numbers when far less of a supporting cast and when he had one and was old, he was still elite and won a ring."
MJ fans: Well, he did it when Centers were 6'6 and a bunch of white boys.
"Lebron James is a much more important and better player than MJ. He gives you better numbers, more impactful stats, better decision making, better defense, more versatile, less chucking, and is bigger, faster, and much stronger."
MJ fans: Hahaha, Michael Jordan is MUCH better. MJ got to 6 Finals and won 6
"Bill Russell has more rings than anyone and did it with greats like Petit, Wilt, Cousy, Lanier, Arizin, Baylor, Bellamy, and Big O."
MJ fans: He did it with an elite team full of HOF's. MJ did it all by himself.
The 90's was the strongest era in Basketball outside of the 80's with Magic, Bird, and his Airness.
"How is MJ better than the great bigs like KAJ, Shaq, Hakeem, Duncan, Wilt, and Russell when they changed the rules to make it harder for those players when they changed the rules to make it easier for MJ?"
MJ fans: How did they make it easier for MJ? They had handchecking, it was physical, remember the Bad Boys of Detroit. (As if every other team played like Detroit)
"The SG position was weak in the 80's especially athletically, do you think MJ stats are stewed because of it as well as the pace of play and the defensive assignments?"
MJ fans: No, because MJ is the GOAT. He would average 50PPG without hand-checking and physical play. MJ would drop 60 in his sleep on Iggy. MJ would murder in today's NBA.
"When Lebron left Cleveland, they became the worst team in the NBA and still had their 2nd and 3rd best player on the roster and went 19-63 after finishing 61-21 an having the best record in the NBA. MJ retired the first time and without MJ they went 55-27 after finishing 57-25 and they took the Knicks to Game 7. How is MJ better and more important when he's worth just two losses and the difference between a Game 7 2nd round lost and a NBA Title. Wasn't Rasheed Wallace worth that much for the Pistons in the early 2000's?"
MJ fans: The 90's was kind of weak back then and the Bulls greatly overachieved. Phil Jackson is the GOAT coach. Cleveland lost Shaq who is a HOF player and is better than Pippen. Don't you agree Shaq is better than Pippen? They lost Big Z. He was an All Star. Lebron wasn't the reason they won those games, it was Anderson Verjeao.
You are comparing Rasheed Wallace to Michael Jordan, I'm done with this conservation.
