How many series did Jordan win as underdog?

[TheCorporation]

The correct answer is none. Jordan was a *** dumpster for Magic, Larry, Isiah until their teams got old and the other teams became weaker due to expansion (such as the Jazz, the late 80s Jazz were better than any 90s Jazz team).

Jordan is like Kobe in that he wins because his teams are way more stacked. No other 90s team had two MVP caliber players (Jordan,Pippen,), the greatest coach of all-time(Phil Jackson 11 rings in 20 seasons), and Rodman(the greatest rebounder/defensive player ever) or Horace Grant (pereniel all D interior bigman).

Just like Kobe won only with the top frontcourt in the NBA(Kobe is a backcourt player so dont act like hes the reason that is), along with Phil Jackson.



So not one person had the 50-32 Michael Jordan Bulls beating the 42-40 Cavaliers? Save your breath Jordan stan.

None. After the Lakers, Pistons, and celtics got old he had free reign to beat up on bunch of 6'2 guards on the way to titles

Damn...Silk knew all along

Bron stans currently at an all time low.

Get used to it, Wheels....its only going to get worse from here....

Welcome to a real conference.

Do you think it makes Jordan worse? Are you sure? He never beat as underdog because he never played a final as underdog. Because, his existence disallowed to be underdog. He is GOAT, how can a goat be underdog in Finals?

Exactly lol

These stans literally dig their own graves and dont realize til it's too late

Silk the Shocker and Tony Montana ran away from ISH every year LeBron lost, which is so often they are practically never heard from again. They are part of ISH's wastelands, two of many MIA posters Lebron's lack of success has produced.

Quoting them really smacks of desperation.

Oh, so he's like Curry then since he's never been an underdog

Curry = Jordan

Got it...

Or do you finally get what we're saying?

Are you saying the objective is to be the underdog and achieving underdog status deserves more props than achieving favored status?

So losing more and being the underdog is better than winning and being the favorite?

Either way, lebron was never a 6 seed, so he was never an underdog like MJ heading into the 89' playoffs, where MJ almost made the Finals (he had 2 upset series wins in 89', while lebron never had more than 1 upset win in any run)

I think the very small and simple point you cannot seem to grasp is that Curry and Jordan were always on the stacked team. Can we penalize for them that? No.

But it is a matter of fact that they always were on the Stacked team. They were supposed to win.

1989 - Took a terrible 47 win team with his 2nd and 3rd best players averaging 14 and 12 on 47% past a 57 win Cavs team and a 53 win Knicks team to game 6 of the ECF without homecourt advantage while averaging 37/8/8 on 53%. GOAT playoff run.

You could also argue:

'91 vs Lakers
'93 vs Suns
'98 vs Jazz

Plus he's something like 24 for 24 as the favorite. GOAT. Very impressive.

Not many all time greats can say that. For example Lebron lost to Dwight Howard despite being MVP of the league, and on a 66 win team. And the following year lost to a 50 wins Celtic teams.

So that 24 for 24, or whatever it is, is pretty impressive.

What happened to TonyMontana? Did he leave because he got embarrassed in this thread?
