The NBA hasn’t been the same since John Havlicek retired. Nobody played the game like Hondo.

Pippen was a great defender and a solid second option, but everyone knows what made the Bulls tough. MJ was a scorer, he averaged 30+ points on a more physical, slower paced game. His usage was pretty crazy by those standards. Also, MJ was a lockdown defender too.
For all the talk about LeBron’s athleticism, Jordan was equally gifted. He had a higher vertical and was way better in the post. Jordan actually liked playing down in the lower block because he created a mismatch. Guards were too small and big guys were too slow.
Overall, Jordan was a better scorer and winner than LeBron. Jordan has more competitiveness in general. LeBron has been embarrassed by the Mavs (2011), Spurs (2014), and Warriors (2017). He had Wade & Bosh and Kyrie & Love as help, so don’t tell me he had “no help”.
People just want to call LeBron even though he has less scoring titles, NBA titles, and no DOPY.
