Thought bron was gaining on the goat but it’s not close

[ItWasWritten]

1. The team that Bron won multiple playoff series wouldn't make the playoffs, they weren't healthy when it mattered. Bron was out there hooping with Delly and Mozgov.

2. Lebron has too Not even sure what you're arguing. Jordan quit, the Bulls won 55 games and nearly advanced to the ECF. Pippen in one season won more without Jordan than Jordan ever won without Pippen. Give Pippen an actual sidekick to replace the GOAT and that team is the championship favorite. How does that not make you reconsider how much of a talent advantage the Bulls had over the rest of the league? I don't even have to lean on this hypothetical, we all saw how close the Bulls were with some scrub named Pete Myers replacing him in the starting lineup.

3. Kukoc was a rookie, he's a non-factor in the grand scheme of things when compared to the GOAT. His addition is meaningless when you lose Michael Jordan.

4. They went 7 against the Knicks and they would have won that series if they had an adequate replacement for Jordan.

5. Expansion had a profound effect on the state of the league, more than half the damn league had a record below .500 during Jordan's prime. Jordan was facing teams with Rik Smits and John Starks as sidekicks. Ya'll love to talk about Lebron facing Paul George and Demar Derozan/Kyle Lowry but look at who Jordan was facing. The East was the stronger conference in that era but the talent disparity was just as stark as it was during the Leastern conference era. The Knicks went 7 against the Bulls WITHOUT Jordan.

7. The Cavs won 61 games with Bron in 2010 and 19 games without him in 2011. Mo Williams, Anderson Varajeo, Antwan Jamison, Boobie Gibson, Anthony Parker, and JJ Hickson were on both squads. Only Bron and washed up Big Z who averaged 7 PPG were replaced.

Maybe I’m thinking of another year…

Lebron has to what ? What ring he won without an All star ? Mike never had anybody as good as Wade or AD either for that matter.

Pippen was playing on a team that just came off a ring, when all those players left the next year … the bulls struggled …, until you know who came back late 95

98, Jordan at the tail end of his prime Pippen missed half the season, Bulls dominated. If we gonna do that “if so and so did this then” argument then Jordan woulda won just as much based off of that alone. Pip went down to Houston to from a super team and got eliminated in the first round. Blazers he was touted as the missing piece … did nothing.

I just told you Mike drug Pip to rings at least 3 times in the finals yet you gonna sit up here and tell me Pip had more success with the team Mike built (whom by the way never got to play with those same players at one time like 94)

Put it like this of Pippen stayed with his original Supersonic team, how many rings you think he get without Mike ? I guarantee you Mike getting at least 3. How potent you believe the league is has nothing to do with the playoffs, you’re always going to play the best TEAMS. You keep going back to that sidekick shyt, Hakeem did just fine 2 years straight without one. Elite nikkaz just win. In fact he beat Penny and Shaq …Pippen is not an elite nikka. Pippen wasn’t leading anybody anywhere jordan replacement or not, they would have beat the Knicks if he played better.

I don’t care what the Cavs did in 2010 or after, once again it’s not the same scenario. 2010 cavs were not a championship team. Teamed tanked anyway to get a 1 pick
