Today, on Around The Horn, they were saying if Bron won one more, he'd be ahead of Jordan, which is absurd, IMCO, so I tweeted him.

Here's his reply:

Rodman played defense and rebounded, that's it, and I think he only played on two of Jordan's title teams.

Kukoc was only there for three of them and wasn't all that special.

LeBron's teams have been LOADED.

(06-05-2017, 01:32 AM)J24 Wrote: 1.) Pippen guarded the teams best player and ran the bulls offense during the 90s and had an MVP like season in the 93-94 season. Again who has been on that Level for Lebron? Maybe Wade but he was past his prime with Lebron and always had some injury issue. 
2.) Rodman is regarded as the best rebounder in modern NBA history and he was one of the most impactful defenders during his career. He is also in the Hall of fame and played on 3 Jordan title teams.(96-98)
3.) Toni Kucoc won the 6th man of the year in the 96 season and gave the bulls 13 points. 4 rebounds, and 4 assists during through 1996-1998. Which if you put him in this current era is probably 17, 6, 6 per a game To say he wasn't all that special is just a Ludacris observation from you. The year after Jordan left in 99 Toni averaged 18.8 points, 7 boards, and 5.3 assists.
4.) What Championships team haven't been loaded in NBA history?

(06-13-2017, 06:07 PM)BFritz21 Wrote: 1.  Irving.  Pippen played D and offered some offensive ability, but not enough to downplay anything MJ did.

2.  Rodman rebounded and played D, but neither of those were enough to make the teams that much better.  They win those titles without him.

3.  Toni was solid, but not enough to make that much of a difference.

4.  JORDAN'S TEAMS!

You listed guys that were ok, but Jordan brought them to another level and the team to another level.
Call me when Lebron wins six titles.

Jordan never even played in a game 7!  Bron has been swept in the finals!


But were nothing special other than role players for Jordan!

They might have been more without him, but they didn't win Jordan's titles!

Bron has had MUCH better teams, and it's not even close!

(06-13-2017, 10:00 PM)jason Wrote: Jordan played in game 7 in the 1998 Eastern conference finals against the Indiana Pacers. That's off the top of my head. I think there was another in the early 90s against the Knicks.

And if we are counting rings, Jordan can't hold Bill Russell's jock.

The Bulls won over 50 games in the 93/94 without Jordan. That's right. Pippen, BJ Armstrong, Horace Grant, and Toni Kukoc did that. They took the Knicks to 7 games, and lost on a questionable call... Call me when Kyrie and Kevin Love win a game without LeBron.

There were only 8 to 14 teams when Russel played, and not to mention that basketball wasn't as widespread or anywhere near as evolved as it was when Jordan played.
