Yeah....playing at this level at 39 while Jordan couldn't get off the floor at 36....Jordan definitely doesn't belong in the same breath.
jordan had 6 rings at 40 with a 6-0 record in the finals. FYI
The most casual argument in history.
Jordan didn't play six seasons, he played fifteen and was getting stomped in the East for a majority of them.
Swept in round one multiple times. A punching bag of the Pistons. 0-6 against Bird come playoff time.
To make the guy who couldn't win a playoff series or go .500 in the regular season without Pippen out to be some infallible "6-0!!!" giantslayer is just disingenuous. He didn't become a winner until he had a superteam around him and all of his competition retired out of the league.
At Lebron's current age, Jordan was decomposing into flesh and rot with a Wizards jersey on and piss yellow eyes miles out of the playoffs.
Yup. It's so funny that Jordan fans are criticizing Lebron for getting swept at age 38 and 39 when Jordan was swept back to back at 22 and 23 years old (and only winning 1 of his first 10 playoff games)
