you figs can't have it both ways.
If Lebron is THAT much more athletic than Jordan, then Jordan must have been THAT much better of a straight basketball player than him while Lebron simply relies on his athleticism to succeed.
If Lebron does have this high "skill level" many here claim, then Jordan must have been either extremely athletic himself or have impossible to match skill.
Having seen Jordan play, his skill level, as far as offensive MOVES go, was pretty basic (step back, pivot, spin, fake, jump into defender). So how was he getting to the rim? Magic?

All of this.
For Jordan to be as good as he was, he had to have had a little athleticism in him.

Production matters, not skill.
