Michael Jordan won ZERO In the year before Michael Jordan and LeBron James joined their team and the year after they left their team, their records were 83-84 bulls 27-55 84-85 bulls. 38-44 92-93 bulls 57-25 93-94 bulls 55-27 98-99 bulls 13-37 without Scottie Pippen 00-01 wizards 19-63 01-02 wizards. 37-45 02-03 wizards 37-45 03-04 wizards 25-57 02-03 cavaliers 17-65 03-04 cavaliers 35-47 09-10 cavaliers 61-21 10-11 cavaliers 19-63 09-10 heat. 47-35 10-11 heat 58-24 14-15 heat 37-45 2013-14 cavaliers 33-49 2014-15 cavaliers 53-29 2017- 18 cavaliers 50-32 2018-19 cavaliers 19-63 2017-18 lakers. 35-47 2018-19 lakers were 20-14 when LeBron James got injured on Christmas day. As you can see When LeBron James joins a team, the team improves more than Michael Jordan and when LeBron James leaves a team, the team always goes into the tank. Michael Jordan, excluding the 94-97 seasons, when the NBA moved the three point line to 22 feet, was a career 28% three point shooter. LeBron James is a career 34% three point shooter Michael Jordan was a great defensive player, in an Era where you could handcheck. Playing defense is much easier when you can handcheck. For nearly 6'9 250 LeBron James' entire career he wasn't afforded the opportunity to handcheck. THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR..LEBRON JAMES IS THE GOAT!!!!! I have added a Postscript So many have replied, that LeBron james didn't make the playoffs his first two years and Jordan did. What they fail to say is, in 1985, 16 of 23 teams made the playoffs. In 2004, 16 of 29 teams made the playoffs. It was MUCH EASIER Making the playoffs in 1985. Also, I don't know, possibly, maybe, Jordan had a HUGE ADVANTAGE considering he played three years of college basketball and LeBron James was 19 years old, and straight out of high school

[@legallinebacker11]

As someone who was alive when the Bulls drafted Pippen, many Bulls fans did not like it. We viewed him as a "project" who was unknown, and from an unknown small school. Sure enough, when he arrived he was SUPER RAW and needed motivating. It was Jordan who lit a fire under his arse. It took years but eventually Pip stepped his game up. It was playing and practicing with Jordan that brought Pips game up. Still, if Jordan missed a game, or better yet, when Jordan retired, Pippen fell flat. He did not have anywhere close to the "killer will" of MJ. To put it bluntly, MJ "made him"..... just like he made many of the other players on those Bulls teams. Last point, and I never thought I would have to say this.... but right now, MJ is UNDERrated... yes, underrated. To see him play, to see the way he elevated those teams, to see his unparalleled fire, intensity, athleticism and skill "in person" was truly something to behold. There is NOBODY in the game today that comes close. The closet one was Kobe... and yet Kobe would admit Jordan was better.

pippen was included in the 92 dream team so that mj would finally decide to join and they can call it the dream team. when pippen was selected to the 50 greatest players, he was the most questioned because obviously there are more talented and accomplished players like dominique and mcadoo that were more deserving. in 94 when the bulls reached the playoff semis without mj, no one talks about the fact he had 2 other allstars on the team that year, one was even an allstar starter along pippen himself! in 94 they also had a clutch player named kukoc. his own coach didnt even trust him to take the last shot. then in 95, no one wants to talk about the fact that the bulls led by pippen were on pace to miss the playoffs and were saved when mj came back. after winning 72 games in 96, the bulls had a chance to win 70 again in 97 but pippen bricked (as in it didnt even make contact with the ring) the game winner in their last regular season game so the bulls had to settle for 69 wins. then in 98, pippen missed 30 plus games and the bulls still won 62 games even with rodman taking a vegas vacation in the middle of the freaking season! in the finals that year, pippen was useless with a back injury and the bulls still beat the jazz. and with all these, lebron fans would argue that pippen carried jordan! pippen became a good player because of mj. he won 6 chips because of mj. and now because of this ridiculous goat debate, lebron fans are making him out to be an even better player to diminish mj even more. he is somewhat relevant now because of mj. he owes mj everything and repays him by bashing him. what a class act!

Pippen was also a historic bricklayer and lane-clogger by virtue of the worst shooting splits in playoff history for a someone with 15 games and 35 MPG (3-pt era) - he did this twice in 96' and 98' Playoffs.. Many people don't realize that anytime a series was close or lost, it was Pippen's poor play that caused it like the 89' ECF, 90' ECF, 92' ECSF (X-Man debacle), 94' ECSF, 95' ECSF, 96' Finals, 98' ECF, 98' Finals, 97 Finals (3 APG and 4 TO or 42% shooting... 4 clutch-time points)..

Pippen gets the "good cop" label, but after Jordan got on his teammates (which is a thing called "leadership"), Pippen would routinely comfort them, sort of throwing Jordan under the bus in the process. Anyone who knows Jordan's style, is that he's the type to get on you for blowing an assignment - likely chew you out (which LeBron won't do because he's Tweeting about the team needing to make changes) - but then pat you on the ass, clap his hands (which Kobe wouldn't do), say something encouraging, then do his press conference, and not dwell on any of it because he's thinking about that golf game of his, and why dwell on anything that he confronted. And the BULLS-machine never broke down along the way. They were always on point. Pippen's an opportunist. He'd likely get around to talking to the guy (who Jordan had confronted), and let it be known that he didn't care for how Michael was talking to him, etc. Pippen always struck me as being a locker room politician; with his main equity being that he wanted to be seen as "The Good Guy" compared to Jordan. Pippen throwing Phil Jackson - of all people - under the bus, shows you everything you need to know about Pippen. Phil Jackson ALWAYS spoke highly of Pippen - probably overrating him at times (IMO) - and undercut Jordan at times to help prop up Scottie (read Charlie Rosen articles because a lot of what was written were thoughts expressed by Phil Jackson). This whole "Pippen was actually the more important defender", and "Pippen was really the leader on those teams" type of nonsense, was sent by Phil Jackson via proxy (through again, Rosen articles). Reading MANY articles throughout the '90s, I can't recall ever reading that Pippen was the main defender on those BULLS' teams. The first time I read anything suggesting that, was by Charlie Rosen. Then it took on a life of its own in the late '00s until now. Pippen was a great defensive player, no question, but for my money, I still think it's Jordan 1A on defense, to Pippen being 1B. Just like on offense, whenever you needed a clutch defensive play, I'd pick Jordan over Pippen any day of the week. Pippen's son signed with Klutch Sports. LeBron and Phil Jackson have beef, and LeBron's people work tirelessly to undercut Jordan through the media. I don't doubt that MJ's son dating Pippen's ex-wife is a big part of what's going on, but the tipping point (IMO), is that Pippen is desparate for his son to make the NBA. His son was essentially on the Lakers practice roster last year.

He was a fantastic teammate, but it's obvious that Jordan still carried the biggest load of the Bulls team and was the one that had to light a fire under Scottie and mold him into something great. Jordan debuted with 20+ PPG, Scottie debuted under 10. Jordan got the Bulls to the playoffs every season after their previous 3 seasons before he signed ended up short, Scottie was on pace to miss the playoffs in 95 before Jordan came back and got them to the playoffs despite needing to get back into prime basketball shape. Despite everything, Jordan always complimented Scottie. Above all else, I've lost respect for Scottie because he has no respect for others.

[@retrocny5625]

I've been saying this forever now, as someone who watched the bulls dynasty win their 6 championships. Jordan's "supporting cast" always gets talked about like they were all-time great. Just...no. In the entire 95-96 season when the bulls went 72-10, only 3 players on the entire roster averaged at least 10ppg. The bulls won championships off of their defense and Jordan's ability to dominate a game offensively(he had to, otherwise they wouldn't score enough points) So many of the bulls players performed worse in the postseason in terms of fg% and ppg. Players like Kukoc and Kerr were incredibly streaky shooters, both of them famously would go on these streaks of bad shooting from 3 in the playoffs when it was needed most. Ron Harper was a solid perimeter defender and hustle player, but not an offensive producer at all. Would average 5-6 shot attempts per game and score less than 10 points a game. Pippen was the only other reliable source of offense on the entire bulls roster if you're talking about creating your own shot opportunities, whether it was on the fast break, off the dribble, spot up shooting, etc. Rodman was all-time great for tip ins and scrapping for loose balls and rebounds. Longley sort of did the same, but was mainly a paint protector. Who else are we talking about? Jud Buechler? Bill Wennington? Old, unathletic role players that played bare bones minutes and wouldn't even fit on a G league roster by today's standards. This all in an era where teams RARELY scored 100 points in games, compared to today's league where teams scoring 120+ ppg is fairly commonplace... Jordan's ability to reliably produce at least 30ppg, and many times 40+, is even more impressive and puts it in a different perspective. And the Bulls needed him to take over games like that to win titles. In 1994 without him there, they didn't make it to the conference finals, they were near last in the league in terms of scoring and their offensive rating plummeted without him. The bulls won championships due to the combination of scrappy defense and Michael's scoring. And while Scottie may be mad about the whole Last Dance documentary and how it portrayed him, he doesn't get to rewrite history.

Look at what Lebron fans did to DWade, Bosh, Ky, and especially Love and now AD. I would love to see how much they would absolutely destroy and devalue Pip, Grant, and Rodman and probably Kukoc and Harp, hell every one. The narrative would still be that LeBron has to carry bums and he needs more help. If you're not superhuman levels in your backseat role for LeBron to pursue this goat title, you're a useless bum. hahaha Mike and Anthony Davis would be so unfair. AD is #4 all time behidn Bron in reg season PER. #5 just behind Bron in career playoff PER. hahaha more help! Have your rest AD, Mike will ACTUALLY, not 2k fantasy false narrative, but really actually carry the load until you get back. LeBron needed to face trash teams to be associated with carrying nobodies, and in order for that narrative to stick, they devalue so many of the greatest players of this era his teamed up with. All to stay on that narrative, and what choice do they have but to readily blame them when they ultimately lose. LeBron got all his stats, he can't be the reason. Forcing superstars to become spot up shooters so Bron can keep his stat piling play style could never be the reason why Bron has a losing record. Facing weak Leastern conference and an asterisk bubble can't be the only reasons he's won.

Pip deserves more respect period. The dude made 8 all defensive first teams in a row and two second teams either side of those eight years. He was first team all NBA three times and made seven all NBA teams total. The dude was first team all NBA and first team all defense in the the same year three times. Only eleven players in NBA history have done that more times than Pip and they are Jordan, Kobe, Duncan, Lebron, Giannis, Dwight, KG, Hakeem, David Robinson, Walt Frazier and Jerry West. So Pip was a bona fide superstar player. But he never gets the credit for it because Jordan has to receive 1000% of the credit for all of The Bulls success. He's the second best player in the history of The Bulls franchise and he has to listen to his own fans play down his ability in order to make Jordan look better. He was easily a top 5 players in the league in his absolute prime but it works better for Jordan's legacy if he was just a top 25 player.

[@SonnyK248]

@@abner0584 This is a common reply. Jordan was better 😂 I never implied that Jordan was better than Pip. Jordan was the best player in the whole damn league 🤦‍♂️😂 But Pip was also a superstar. He was better than the majority of the first option players in the league and he was a second option on The Bulls. And the 90’s didn’t have a lot of teams that had two stars on the team. The Bulls had two superstars. Jordan was better but Pip more that carried his end of the couch for those six rings. But like I said it makes Jordan look better if he was the only star on his team so people love to play down how good Pip was. If Pippen ain’t on The Bulls there is no Bulls dynasty.
