When MJ was Iverson'ing:
-High PPG in 1st round exits
-No defense
-No team work
-No winning
MJ was a taller Iverson until Pippen recessitated his dying career

If Iverson won 6 rings starting in 2001, he would be the GOAT. This line of argument changes nothing. Iverson is maybe the most skilled and talented player of all time.

Wait.... So a rookie Pippen came into the Nba and turned Jordan into DPOY at training camp? Lol
Who knew!

Right. Pippen showed up at 88, turned Jordan into defensive player of the year, yet somehow didn't made any all rookie team lolololololol

As far as I’m aware Jordan never won a single playoff game before Pippen. Pippen led the Chicago Bulls in rebounds, assist, steals, and blocks for all six Chicago Bulls championship runs :lol
Clearly Jordan is in the Colin Sexton/Russell Westbrook category of players without a first ballot hall of famer and best coach in all history standing there to guide his hand. How did his stint on the Wizards go, after all? :roll:

Longevity determines your legacy
25 - 5 - 6 at 38 vs pierce, carter, kobe, tmac, spree and others while being #2 in the East pre injury shows longevity. Especially being rusty after a 2 year retirement.
The first wizard season actually makes jordan look even better

Yikes!! MJ fans in shambles after this one. His Wizards stint went 20/5/4 on 17% from 3P
It was worse then Colin Sexton. Giannis was a better 3P shooter than MJ :oldlol:

Phil Jackson helped a huge deal. Jackson has great motivational skills and expresses team basketball above all, although jordan's usage was still insanely high during all title years. Shaq couldn't even win a finals game until he got super motivated to play under Phil Jackson from 2000-2002 and finally peaked. Shaq seeing what Phil did with Jordan is what motivated the hell out of him. I'm not sure Shaq ever wins a finals game if he didn't have Phil, he probably would of had a Chris Webber type career.
Also the development of Scottie Pippen by the 1990s.
Everything clicked at the right time and that's what translated to 6\6 finals.

-No defense
This is why I get annoyed when I get called a LeBron stan. Because this is the kind of shit actual LeBron stans say.

Jordan averaged 34/7/7 in the 91-93' Playoffs and 36/7/8 in the Finals, so he never toned it down to win - some of his highest volume playoffs are his championship years (93', 97', 98') and he won 6 titles as scoring champ

That team was trash because marcus camby is a fraud. Hes the reason why they sucked any defensive big would of been good for that team. The only reason they won a little with fraudlips is because of nene hilario came back the nect year. They could of done better with iverson
