I don't think MJ had the GOAT career either.
He had the single biggest impact on the NBA, its future players, and branding/marketing though

MJ's legacy is amplified by his timing. Winning/stats aside, he did it at a time when the NBA was breaking out from being a niche sport to globally popular.
He would not be the best player right now. And that's not a knock on him--the game has evolved and athletes have improved/gotten more versatile. But some folks via nostalgia or just a disdain for the present have elevated him to near-deity status and it destroys all conversation.
James fanboys do that as well, of course, but that's the other side of this inane coin
