In contrast to young Lebron dominating the ball and failing to elevate all-stars like Jamison, Zydrunas, Mo, or all-defenders like Snow, Hughes and Varejao, young Jordan was a great assist target that grew the stats of undecorated youngsters like Woodridge, Sam Vincent, Paxson, Oakley, Pippen, Grant, and BJ.... Jordan always increased the Bulls' offensive ranking, team assist ranking, and regular season wins or playoff progress each year on the way to a title, while Lebron saw regressions in regular season record and playoff regression in 08' and 10' because his imposition of spot-up roles cannot grow teammates or chemistry..

Lebron's low IQ basketball couldn't grow his team and produced a 2nd Round upset loss with a 7th-year organic juggernaut in 2010 - this inability to develop chemistry precipitated "the decision" to abandon chemistry/organic and pursue talent-based winning, aka all-star team strategy and teaming up with opposing franchise players.

The results tell the story because Jordan only lost to 1 or 2 seeds with young squads, while Lebron lost to 3 and 4 seeds with the league favorite in 10' and 11'.. Young Jordan had the off-ball game required to win with ball movement and be the 1st option for the best basketball (dynasty and dominant champion), while Lebron had access to the triangle and even more wide-ranging ball movement systems, yet his low-assisted style produced weak chemistry and perennial losers with every cast.
