How many rings in a row would they win? 8, 9, or 10?

GOAT and the 6th best player to ever play the game would be a dynasty. Assume a good supporting cast equivalent of 01 lakers or 97 bulls.

If Magic, Jordan, Kareem, Lebron, Duncan, Oscar, Kobe, Russell, Malone and Bird were were on the same team, how many rings would they get?

Considering LeBron is a suped up evolutionary version of Pippen, with vastly superior volume scoring, better passing, improved athleticism, durability and only slightly inferior defense. You do the math.

The math has already been done.

6 rings at most. Jordan would marginalize Lebron's production because he is required 30% more scoring load then the second best player on his team.

LeBron scoring more could allow Jordan to be more aggressive defensively.

About 30 a game for Mike and 25 ish ppg with 8 apg for LeBron. And unlike Wade, Jordan is even better off the ball in a half court offense while still being a dominant scorer, without the need for excessive time of possession.

LeBron's volume scoring is a luxury Mike didn't have in a high 20 ppg caliber volume scorer at any point in his career. Especially in that second three peat when Scottie was absolutely putrid offensively.

I definitely think they would be an awesome duo. I was being sarcastic because 3ball always brags about Jordan's superior scoring over his second best teammate. They both would absolutely wreak havoc on opponents defensively and offensively. There would literally be no way to marginalize them.
