The only man who could ever hold Jordan to under 20 points was Dean Smith.

Touche, Dean Smith did less with more talent than any coach, in any sport, in the history of coaching. Only two NC's with all of that talent is fricking criminal.

Because it is criminal to compare stats? The stats show Jordan was the best of all 4 of the above, look at his FG% compared to the rest.

Apparently it is not that obvious to the people on here getting frustrated. How they are incapable of seeing the obvious or pointing out the obvious... I don't know. It's not like those stats are some sort of complex puzzle.
