Why Michael Jordan fans respectfully disagree with @KingJames , although Michael Jordan himself refuses to make the same claim. There are many more factoids & reasons, but we had to stop somewhere. A thread... (Thread summarized in photos also.)

If I was a younger NBA fan, new to the league, I'd probably look back at those low scoring 90's and early 00's box scores & not be interested in watching low scoring games. Here's the thing, they had the opposite effect that high scoring games do...

All this bigger faster stronger crap, but aren't Luka Doncic & Nikola Jokic ripping up the NBA, and aren't they 2 of the least athletic stars in the game's history? But Jordan wouldn't fry today's NBA? Give me a break. (Pictured below is MJ's avg as a Bulls player).

For years Corporate America's catchphrase for LeBron was "makes any team an instant title contender" but by playoff time that turns to "he needs more help." LeBron himself, no problem with LeBron, he is a LEGEND. The media however, are you kidding me? LeBron coverage is a JOKE.

When LeBron passes Kareem I wonder if his athletic authenticity will face the same scrutiny Barry Bonds did. 98% of the NBA media is a propaganda machine for him, so you doubt it, but wouldn't be surprised to see that come in to question.

Younger LeBron fans should justifiably feel like us Kobe & Jordan fans "hate" on LeBron when we kind of yawn at the longevity stuff. He capped his ceiling with a lot of us w/ all the roster resets, All-Star teammate resets, multiple choke jobs, not wanting the shot, etc.

He's only the head coach of the most underrated defensive team in NBA history, 96 Sonics, but what would he know, right? That 96 Sonics team was 2nd in the NBA that year, with defensive rating, to who? Bulls/Jordan, who was still an elite defender as well. Elite D & a 40pt TD

Haven't watched a WWE show since SummerSlam 2019. However, WWF gave us fans tons of great memories. From a NYC territory to 6+ billion dollars. Incredible. Hulkamania Rock n Wrestling era & the Attitude Era were the only eras to consistently go up in popularity. Amazing run!

In my opinion all the roster resets make LeBron look worse. He's had 8 billion All Star teammates and still hasn't caught Kobe or Jordan in rings.

When LeBron James makes a pit stop with your favorite franchise, he'll ensure there are no draft picks left when he leaves. It's unreal how the Cavs (2x's), Heat, and Lakers don't get their just due for throwing every available asset in to LeBron's hand picked fantasy rosters.

Hard to overlook that Jordan & Kobe inspired their teammates to BECOME champions. You've heard all the stories, and yes in some cases they produced better results from a teammate by intimidation. Kobe even held Shaq accountable for not working out. They drove inspiration.
