the cap in 97 was 27 million and 30 million in 98. Jordan got a sweetheart deal those 2 years but it does not change the fact the years prior he was making between 2-4 million

http://www.insidehoops.com/nba-salary-cap.shtml

In 96 the year they won 72 games Jordan made 3.8 million and the cap was 23 million

so he roughly accounted for 0.92% of their cap

for comparison sakes lebron made 19 million this year rounding down and the cap was 58 million rounding up. He accounted for roughly 11% of their cap space

In 95-96 the cap was 24 million. That 3.8 million dollars he makes was 15% of the cap try again

Type of fukking math you do to get .92%?

Fail math and try to be a cap expert brehs

They didnt' sacrifice shyt. :mjlol: Jordan's deal was big at the time he signed it. Salaries (and FA) just happened to explode during that time and there was nothing Mike could do until the deal was up. Scottie stayed bytching about his money. That's like saying your wife sacrificed going somewhere when you just refused to take her ass :heh:. Mike was the highest paid guy on his team at times during that contract even with the lower salary, Bron still never has been that.

You act like he signed that deal in 95...he signed it almost a decade prior. Keep ignoring what really happened to spin your own narrative though. :sas2:

maybe i'm not understanding how this works but wouldnt:

3.8 out of 23 = 17%
19 out of 58 = 33%

I aint mad at lebron for wanting the max but it looks like his ambitions will break up miami which is good for chicago and unless he goes to the clippers or spurs he won't be winning any rings in the foreseeable future.
nikka fukk the Bulls. They ain't ever winnin no more titles :what: Get that through your thick Sega Genesis Madden playin head, B :damn:

His problem is he's clearly a great player but he can't carry a team to a championship on his own. Him needing both Bosh and Wade there eat up too much of the salary cap on 3 players. If they could drop one of those guys and have the other one be Pippen to his Jordan maybe they could spread more money around to more players and put together a better supporting cast. As it stands with all three of them assembling a worthwhile team behind them is too difficult. The eastern conference is so weak they'll almost always make it out of there but when they run into the west winner who's gonna be more balanced and battle tested and they will likely fold.

The Heat are forced to rely on older players or guys coming off injury or some ringless guy who's desperate and willing to take less money to make a run at a championship. Young guys in their prime who can get better deals aren't gonna take pay cuts to play there.
This is what the bulls did also

Well either Jordan and Pippen were just that much better or they did a better job of it because the NBA the Bulls played in was a lot tougher than what the Heat are struggling with.

what super team? every team that has won back to back championships has had 2 hall of famers on it :stopitslime:
and be real bron carried those teams to them ships wade and bosh was damn near invisible

Lj has 2 Hof's besides himself. Pippen is nothing in comparison to Wade and he has Bosh. And 40% 3 pt shooters. All Lj carried was the fga's. Wade averaged 20ppg on 1 knee in the Finals last season. Invisible was Lj in 2007 Finals, 2011 Finals, and this season's Finals.
