Nolebull813 Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 Jordan will always be the best ever. Only guy that could make a case would Kareem. He played 19 years though. Jordan played a little over 13. Two seasons out of the official 15 were less than half a season. Lebron is just now approaching his level after 18 years in the league. Lebron has had 5 more years to stockpile awards and accomplishments and still hasn’t touched him yet. The craziest thing about Jordan was he was known for his offensive explosion, but was a 9 time FIRST TEAM All Defense NBA. Insane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insane What made Jordan special was his killer instinct, the guy genuinely hated to lose. That coupled with his physical talents makes him the GOAT in my book. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDog Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 Also what made him special was this guy on his right. No one in the modern era had a better sidekick. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGW No other Superstar had this as a teammate in the modern era for most of his career. And when Pippen was out they were not that dominate. Yet when Jordan left he led them to 55 wins and MVP . Look at his numbers and take in account he defaulted to Jordan.

He was on the downside with them and never played 82 games in either season there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking nothing away from Michael. THE GOAT. But if given my choice and in his prime. I would take Kareem. Dude won Championships in Milwaukee and LA. The most dominate Player I have ever seen. Damn near shot 60% from the Field and was a 70+% free throw shooter. Kareem on the block. Jordan and Pippen changed the dynamics from the dominate big man. But I Remember Ewing and Lambeer giving them hell. Imagine Jabaar. And I believe Shaq and Kobe's Lakers would have beat them. Kobe would have went toe to toe with MJ and Shaq would have dominated them inside. Remember Kareem retired 2 years earlier when Michael and the Bulls beat an old Lakers team in 1991. There are MJ Copycats. This is an original never duplicated or replicated. Because this was unstoppable. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
