That shit isn't coincidence... It's a microcosm of the superior teamwork that MJ's game allows

i.e. Horace Grant isn't a good passer and can't handle the rock... Yet he assisted Paxson because MJ's skillset allowed teammates to move the ball all game, get in a rhythm, and be threats.. whereas lebron's skillset makes them spot-up shooters - you'd never see ball movement like that from a lebron team with the game on the line

So the bulls don't get that game-winner with lebron - and lebron can't hit a championship winner himself, so the bulls would've lost with bron

And look at the Kerr winner - MJ pre-planned drawing the double (that's how often he was doubled), and kicked it to Kerr, who hit it.... Now compare to Kyrie's shot in 16'... Lebron doesn't get doubled so Kyrie had to create on his own... What a luxury to have, compared to what mj had to do... :facepalm

and in both the Paxson and Allen shots both stars touched the ball and had pretty much nothing to do with the shot.

Paxson's shot was a function of teamwork/ball movement, while Ray's was a lucky scramble - so it wasn't the ball movement that MJ's teams had

Think about the trust that existed among teammates, for Horace to toss Paxson the dime... That kind of trusting ball movement doesn't happen on lebron's teams, let alone with all the money on the line

Of course, lebron had everything to do with the shot - Lebron missed the shot and it bounced to Ray

It's a stark contrast to MJ's first meeting with Duncan/Popovich, where he made the exact same shot from the exact same spot to send the game into overtime, before finishing them off (and pip didn't play that game)

That play was created by Pippen and his quick reflexes after Barkley turrible read.

Why is Lebron flailing his arms calling for the ball after Bosh got the rebound? LeBron thinking for one second that Bosh is going to rely on him when he's 0/8 in finals go ahead shots?

He looked like an idiot, while Bosh made the correct pass to Ray Allen who is exponentially more clutch.
