I was just looking at the career stats on both. Surprised to see that Jordan doubled Russell in points per game, and had a much higher field goal percentage:

Jordan - 30.1 PPG, .497 FG%
Russell - 15.1 PPG, .440 FG%

It looks like FG% was much lower across the board in Russell's era. Anybody know why?
