Part of MJ's failures came from his weak longevity. He crumbled while playing without Pippen and in those 5 Pippenless years MJ did...nothing.

0x Rings
0x Finals
0x Conf Finals
0x Semi Finals
0x 1st round wins *not a typo
1x Playoff game win *not a typo

If MJ had GOAT longevity like LeBron and was playing without Pip, how many more seasons would MJ need to win ONE playoff series? MJ played 13 playoffs, how much longevity does he need to get over 6,000 pts? LBJ did that in 13 playoffs already...

He’d need a stacked team, which is comical given all of his first round losses came on sub .500 squads which would indicate an extremely weak Eastern Conference

False. It was a top heavy conference.

It's a team sport. You only get far with a stacked team. Period. How do some of you not understand this? Look how well Lebum is doing this year with a crappy team. 1-9 Jordan at least led a far worse team to the playoffs.

Even with their worst teams, Jordan's were far worse than Lebron's.

None of those teams went .500, making the playoffs in a weak era wherein sub .500 teams routinely make the playoffs and losing in the first round is more of an embarrassment if anything. It demonstrates the level of competition Jordan was losing to 1-9

MJ played 5 years without Pip. How many more seasons would MJ need to win ONE playoff series?

Giannis, Lebron, Curry and Durant didn't win a playoff series in their first few years either, so it's a timing thing and has nothing to do with Pippen.. you're just weaponizing the coincidence that the only years MJ didn't play with Pippen are the years that nearly EVERYONE loses, aka weak

Try to spin it how you want, but 1-9 Jordan had a FAR worse team than Labrone has this year, and Jordan still managed to do more with them.

Dumbass ./.

Fyi nothing is ever more embarrassing than losing in the play-ins aka losers bracket twice in a row, especially if they did so with a winning record while a face of whatever that team is got mvp chants during the rs.

Man you should have been aborted for showing such low iq but then again you was only there due to your papa's erectile dysfunction.

He really was nothing but a Magic McGrady/Rockets Harden until all the planets aligned for him:

1. Chicago getting a proper winner who would increase the success of the team in the great Scottie Pippen
2. Chicago getting a coach who would later on win 5 more rings without Jordan

all this in an era where:

3. The Lakers/Celtics/Pistons teams that dominated the 80s got injured/old/washed, leaving the 90s to be the most exploitable era of all time

while:

4. He never had a key teammate Pippen/Grant/Rodman miss a single solitary playoff game due to an injury in the Bulls 6 playoff runs

And on top of all this sprinkle a bunch of steroid taking and favorable ref calls that were evident as soon as he left the league (Pippen's "foul" on Hubert Davis 3 pointer).
You could really see why he developed a gambling addiction. The entitled prick must've developed a subliminal conviction that the objective of the universe was to create events that only favored him.

Closed it immediately after Jordan extremist narrating the vid said "What happened? Well, Pippen wasn't good".

By the way, just a WILD guess here: That propaganda video doesn't seek to explain "what happened" in 1986-87 season (last without Pippen), where a 3rd year 24 year-old Jordan finished lower than a team led by rookie 22 year-old Chuck Person.

If they don't have Pippen then they likely don't trade Oakley for Grant. I think The Piston's likely 3 peat and the Jazz squeek one win out so Jordan likely goes 4-1.

Lesser teams can not exist in a weak era? Don’t get mad at me because you can’t understand third grade logic

The facts Jordan needed Pippen while simultaneously playing in a weak expansion era are not mutually exclusive. The teams of the 90s were weaker than those of the 80s and today AND Jordan still couldn’t get past them without adding the second best player of his era

You don't need to be a Jordan propogandist to say that Pippen wasn't good in 1999 - it's an objective fact that virtually everyone in that Rockets organization agreed with - they GAVE pippen away to the Blazers for nothing because they wanted him gone so bad.

The video included all of that so it's too bad you didn't watch.

And who cares that Jordan lost in 87' with a low seed because Jordan's record with low seeds > Lebron's... Jordan has actually won series with a low seed including an upset of the #1 SRS, while Lebron lost with his only low seed in 21'... Otherwise, he was lucky that his other low seeds missed the playoffs in 04', 05', and 19' - so Lebron never had to carry his worst teams in the playoffs like Jordan and others who carried lottery teams to low playoff seeds
