MJ is goat because he didn't need elite-scoring help - everyone else did

[3ba11]

Everyone else needed equal-scoring partners to attract equal defensive attention, so they didn't always need to defeat maximum defensive attention (carry scoring load) like Jordan did..

Many people say that "scoring isn't everything"... However, elite-scoring help is what everyone in history needed, except the GOAT (mj).

A player's peak often occurs when they defeat maximum defensive attention (carry scoring load for playoffs and Finals of title run), like 84' Bird, 94' Hakeem, 00' Shaq, 03' Duncan, 06' Wade, 11' Dirk, 09' Kobe, 19' Kawhi... And MJ's 6 titles.. Only MJ (6) and Shaq (1) won as scoring champ.

He's 15 after Kobe

Kobe lacks Jordan's power, hangtime or jumpshooting efficiency.. Jordan was closer to Kawhi's size than Kobe.. MJ was like the blessed middle child of the 3

Good Point about Jordan needing to carry the scoring load . Pippen averaged 16. points per game over his career.Anthony Davis 23.8, Kyrie Irving 23.1 & Dwayne Wade 22 points per game
