.
Lebron beat 4 more conference finals teams (2nd Round winners), while Jordan beat 2 more Finals teams (conference finals winners), aka Jordan beat better comp.. And Lebron's conference victories occurred after he took the top 3 first options in the conference and put them on 1 team (the "decision")

If you puts LeBron on the 1990's Jazz in place of Bryon Russell, how many titles does they win?

The 15' Warriors barely beat the injured Cavs', while the 98' Jazz swept Shaq's 4 all-star team & Duncan/Pop - so MJ would've had an easier carry-job against the 1st-timer Warriors than the 10-yr organic juggernauts coming from the 90's West.. Parity is tougher path than being 1 of 2 stacked teams in top-heavy league.

Btw, stats confirm that MJ nearly beat the Bad Boys in 1990 with less help on both sides of ball than the 06-10' Cavs - this includes the #19 defense vs top 10 for the Cavs and less offensive help (less PER, WS, PPG & efficiency from Pip than all-stars Zydrunas/Mo or Hughes acquisition)

Couldn't make playoffs with Prime Westbrook, Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard and Melo.

Won bronze medal with peak Duncan, Iverson

Won bronze medal with peak Wade, Melo, Dwight.

It's funny because today's game has more 3-point specialists that actually aren't that athletic - tons of slow wings that just shoot threes like Caleb Martin or Max Strauss... MJ would destroy these guys.. And all the slow stretch-4's

In addition to the constant availability of less athletic matchups from the 3-point robots, MJ would demolish today's beginner format of wide open spacing, wide open paint, hand-off defense and no-defense mandate (no-impede rules)

Lebron played with Shaq who won league mvp and 3 finals mvp's and lost in round 2. Lebron played with Peak Duncan who had won 2 league mvp's and 3 finals mvp's and won bronze medal. Lebron played with Peak Wade who won finals mvp and got outplayed by Jason Terry. Lebron played with Derrick Rose who won mvp under age 30 which was the same as Kevin Durant who won mvp under 30 while both were on Golden State and Cleveland. Lebron played with mulitple PER leaders as well and now Russell Westbrook a league mvp winner and more triple doubles than Oscar Robertson. Yet despite all of that Lebron lost with all of them.

http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?500416-Why-did-Pelinka-surround-Lebron-with-a-bullshit-roster
He has peak Anthony Davis, the best player on the 2020 squad and the reason the Lakers did anything as the 2019 Lakers missed the playoffs and 2021 Lakers lost in round 1 when AD wasn't around. He has Prime Melo who won a scoring title and all time leader in scoring for the Olympics. He has Dwight Howard a 3x DPOY and a guy who beat Lebron without HCA. He has Westbrook who is the modern day Oscar Robertson and also won league mvp along with average a Triple Double 4 years in a row. He also has Rondo who is a hall of famer.

Why didn't he play it against Dwight Howard in 2009 when Dwight was dominating http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?459570-How-is-it-even-possible-to-lose-to-Dwight-Howard-in-a-series-with-HCA/page10? Or against Duncan or KG or Dirk? Why did he run away from KD a guy at his position?

Lebron won bronze medal twice and lost with HCA 3x. Jordan only won gold medal and never lost with HCA. Prove me wrong!

Difference between Lebron and Tmac?

Both 0-2 with HCA against 50+ win teams until they joined forces with someone who won as the man. Also won bronze medals.

Tmac lost to Utah in 2007 while Lebron was losing to a career loser in Dwight Howard and also Carlos Arroyo in the Olympics with peak Tim Duncan on his squad despite playing more minutes than Hakeem even played on the 1996 Olympic team.
