A team can win with less rebounds or assists, but never if they score less

[3ball]

.
So scoring is a more important category than rebounds and assists.

And since #1 options control the scoring and flow more than anyone else (it's their job description), Jordan's scoring and per possession efficiency advantage is far more important than Lebron's replaceable defensive rebounds against small ball lineups, or 1 assist edge achieved via Westbrook-like time of possession.

lebron turned a 17-65 team into a 35-47 team his rookie year, thats a 16 win difference DOUBLE of ordan's 8 win improvment

In year 2 Lebron enforced his brand of basketball and improved the team even MORE winning this time 42-40 but failed to make the playoffs due to a strong east at the time..

In lebron's third year he FINALLY broke through winning 50 games and getting his team to the playsoff and guess what? he WON his first playoff series something ordan just couldn't do..

otoh, Jordan his first couple of seasons made the playoffs with 30 win teams in a weak expansion era, he also didn't improve the team much until he got GOAT help..

And when he made the playoffs he made quick work, going 1-9

ordan attempting to enforce ordan ball REGRESSED even more the second year going 30-52 but because of such a weak east was able to STILL make the playoffs..

In his 3rd year they went 40-42 and lost AGIAN in the first round.. with superior supporting cast in paxson and oakley..
Then the rest was history, the bulls acquired pippen and the GOAT coach in phil..
But dont forget, lebron won more with less agianst the BEST, while ordan tried but couldn't agianst weaker competition with a better supporting cast
