So 06' Lebron wasn't playing with 20-win cast in the playoffs like 85' Jordan did, which is why lebron went further and had the higher seed and more min

Meltdown! :roll: LeBron going to his 11th conference finals--7th without Wade...the comedic value LeBron brings via shook MJ stans is unparalleled.

Jordan was playing with a 27 win cast (yet another shameless lie--anyone can look up they won 27 in 84' and had a 27 win pace without him in 86') and got them to 38 wins (and a first round loss). Amazing "carry job"!

Is there a point to all this? I don't know you personally, but I am sure there are better things you could do with your time.

And 2006 Lebron was 21 years old and led his team to 50 wins and the second round of the NBA playoffs. Michael Jordan at age 21 lost in the sweet sixteen to Indiana and Steve Alford. In this loss, Jordan only had 13 points. Sam Perkins tried to carry the Tar Heels with 26 points in the game, but Jordan just couldn't be a good second option. Imagine Lebron losing to a Steve Alford led team?

22.9 ppg on .554 shooting Orlando Woolridge > any teammate LeBron had until he joined the Miami Heat.
16 ppg in 26.6 minutes averaging Quintin Dailey > any third option LeBron had until he joined the Miami Heat.

Both 100% indisputable facts.

Jordan had these two players as his supporting cast and he lost to a team that went on to get swept in the second round by a team that went on to lose in the conference finals to a team that went on to lose in the finals.

Jordan didn't win a playoff round until Scottie Pippen entered the league and didn't start winning championships until Scottie Pippen entered his prime. Coincidence?

But I have to admit. Jordan making the playoffs in 86 despite playing only 18 games is really impressive.

06' lebron had a 40-win cast from prior year

85' MJ had 27-win cast

So 06' lebron wasn't carrying a lottery cast in those playoffs or ANY playoffs - he had a .500 ball club minimum

Only MJ played with legit lottery casts in the playoffs... Heck, lebron entered the league with the East all-star center on his team, and then added a 22/5/5 all-defender to make the 06" Playoffs - that's a WAY better cast than MJ had.. even 91" MJ... Pippen wasn't 22/5/5 or 1st team all-defense in 91', nor did the bulls ever have an all-star center or a good coach (Mike Brown was COY)

That's why MJ had 8 seed and lebron 4 seed and Jordan had 20-win lottery casts that he dragged to 40 wins and 8 seed

Woolridge was nowhere near a top 3 player at his position in the conference (all-star)

whereas lebron played with all-stars Zydrunas and Mo, while Jamison was a recent 2-time all-star that averaged 22/9 before joining lebron mid-season (and getting reduced to 15/8).. also, Hughes was 22/5/5 and 1st team all-defense, and Varejao was all-defense... all 5 of these guys were better than Woolridge

Being named an all-star makes you better?

Hey everyone!

7.0 ppg and 9.3 rpg averaging 1988 all-star James Donaldson is better than the 30.5 ppg and 6.1 apg averaging 2020 non-all-star Bradley Beal. Did you know that? Well thanks to 3ball now you do.

Yes Woolridge was good and would've won with MJ if he played with MJ in the 90's like Pippen did, when 2-star teams could win (better parity, evenly spread talent)... instead, Woolridge played with rookie MJ when an all-time team with many HOF's were required to win the East (top-heavy league).. MJ/Pippen lose to the 86' and 87' Celtics too.





Woolridge > any teammate LeBron had until he joined the Miami Heat.

You know the only thing apparent here is you make yourself dumb, as well as you make your counterpart look like a dramatic bitch with these useless threads you create?
