everyone else would've shot like garbage at that volume and therefore lost, so only MJ could've won with Pippen and that cast
We know high volume was required because teammates were playing to capacity next to MJ... And again, only MJ could shoot well at that volume, so only he could've won with that cast
Case closed - jordan's efficient high volume is the key to his goatness.. everyone else would've shot like garbage at that volume, and therefore lost

BJ Armstrong and Oakley turned to all stars the minute MJ retired

55 wins without MJ speaks for itself, Bulls were absolutely loaded that they remained title contenders in MJs absence
Replace MJ with any all star shooting guard and they still win 5+ rings
Shut the hell up 3ball. You were banned for a reason.

It's cool that I realize these key facts
The key is MJ's efficient high volume - that's why Mitch Richmond couldn't win in place of MJ - sure, anyone can jack up the volume, but only MJ could do it efficiently so the bulls could win
We've never seen that caliber a scorer who could handle such a scoring load.. only MJ... only the GOAT

Exactly, they were contenders with a G-Leaguer "replacing" MJ, who retired at the last minute.

As a result of their "one man team" status... the Bulls could never beat other GOAT teams.
80s Lakers, Celtics, Sixers, Pistons, 00s Lakers Spurs Celtics, and 10s Warriors would all wipe them.
the cHeat might beat them if wade turns it up and embarrasses Jordan.

Oh c'mon
In Worthy's first playoffs, he averaged 22 on 64% in the 84' Finals - that easily beats the 89' and 90' Pistons instead of Pippen's 9 on 40%
So if we gave 85' MJ a sidekick like Worthy (Pistons-Celtic killer), he would've 3-peated in the 80's.
A couple rings for worthy in 89' and 90' would give Worthy a 2-ring headstart on Pippen as a young pro, after already being better than Pippen in HS, college and the draft - there's no way Pippen overcomes this to still be ranked higher all-time.. He simply won the "play with MJ" lottery, so the winning spotlight inflates his inferior production..
the Worthy example can be replicated for any immediate-impact player, like Dominique, Grant Hill or Derrick Coleman, who were all better than Pipbrick

Instead of tearing each other down, we should be celebrating that we finally have the answer to why MJ is the only one that could win with the the Bulls' cast (lowest-scoring cast in history):
Only MJ could shoot efficiently enough at the high volume required of the Bulls' #1 option (thread title).. we know the high volume was required, and we know that only MJ could shoot efficiently at that volume.. he has the most high volume-high efficiency seasons of anyone, BY FAR - that's why he's goat

So?? At least I ain't an alt here who creates a lot of clickbait threads nor posts the same crap all the time. 😂

The OP has only been here for the month of April, but I respect what he's saying.
The way I view it is that Jordan had an insane ability to quickly and effectively get a good shot off almost at will. And nobody else could do the same. It was more effortless, thus high percentage.

MJ shot 41% in the finals and still won because his roster was so stacked :oldlol:
