MJ had to face a 60 plus win team first round of the playoffs early in his career, had a dynasty to get by (the Larry Bird Lakers) then get by another dynasty right after them (the Bad Boys Pistons) on the way to a three peat.
Lebron never had to face that.
Plus Jordan, in totality, throughout all of his career, played with less total All Star players than Lebron has, in totality, throughout his career, and had two three-peats, 6 championships in 8 years.
Um…. Larry Bird Celtics. But yes, IMHO, Michael Jordan is the undisputed greatest of all time. What truly set him apart was his will to win…. Along with unmatched talent and drive. Such people are truly remarkable.
And the Bad Boy Pistons literally mugged MJ every game - and he still beat them (although I have always had a soft spot for Laimbeer… a force inside but he also had a sweet long shot….).
