Maybe because mj was in the tougher conference and bron was in the easier conference. If bron was in the west all those years he'd have a worse regular season record and be more likely to face one of the top teams in the first round. This is pretty basic shit buddy.

Low seeds lose in the 1st Round - that's how it works

And Jordan had low seeds because he made the playoffs in his rookie year, so he didn't have 3 seasons to develop his team into a favored, high seed before entering the playoffs like 06' Lebron and others did.. Jordan was also hurt in Year 2, so he didn't get to grow the team in his first few years.

For example, we saw the 04' Cavs had no all-stars but improved to 2 all-stars in 05' and then added a 22/6/5 all-defender and the future COY in 06' (and drafted Varejao) - that's a lot of improvement in 3 seasons, and it yielded a high seed/favorite status for Lebron's first playoff run in 06'.

But when Lebron had the first low seed of his career (2021), he lost in the first round just like everyone else does with low seeds, let alone a rookie and pre-champion player like 80's Jordan

LeBron might have had a way better team if he played in the west. :facepalm

Because whatever doesn't fit the Jordan goat myth narrative gets forgotten and cemented over.

Maybe but i'm just talking about if bron had a bad team in the better conference like mj did. Point is its not a fair comparison. One guy had a bad team in a weak conference and the other had a bad team in a strong conference.

Why is it alright for Lebum to not even make it to the playoffs at 35, when Jordan was three-peating at 35?

You answer my question, and I'll answer yours.

Bron didn't make it to playoffs because of injuries and mj struggled early in career because he was in a strong conference with a bad team. This is the problem with these mj bron debates. It's a bunch of trolling questions we already know the answer to

Bron won the chip and FMVP at 35 years old dummy (2020) :oldlol:


And Bron also made the Finals in his 14th and 15th season, while Jordan missed the playoffs his 14th and 15th season :oldlol:

Deal with it.

Not just that 5 mvps in 15 years vs 4 in 18. 10 scoring titles in 15 years vs 2 in 18 years ect...

Mj basically has more if everything in less year played
