With all other personnel the same as in West's career, how does history turn out differently? How many championships, if any, is Jordan able to win?

Sorry, let's give a little more detail. Let's call it time machine, but he has sufficient time to learn different rules of play.

I think he'd win 1-2 more, but this is always hard to argue.

Jerry West was an incredible player and is arguably the most underrated player of all-time.

I think Jordan would win between 0-3 NBA Championships in place of West.

Should hands down be the best offensive player in the league. Open question if that gets him to Russell/Wilt level. I imagine unibro could make the case it does

IIRC you didn't think it was a given KD would outdo the centers. As it is, this is a 90's player as opposed to a 2010's player and he's significantly shorter. Not too clear how you view 90's/60's but you and 70's seemed to agree the gap in scheme sophistication is bigger from 90's to 2020's than 60's to 90's.

Also, pay-mind "getting to" a level does not mean you can't also "get to and exceed" a level. I checked my semantics :D

Well you didn’t recall correctly lmao

Bro we talk outside of here u know what I’d think about these things lmao

I don’t know much about the scheme in the 60s or the 90s lol, don’t think I’ve ever mentioned it
