The Bulls' performances without MJ should really be discussed more. Cleveland was so fricking terrible when LeBron went to Miami. Not the case at all with Jordan's Bulls, or should I say Pippen's Bulls.

It’s kinda the same as when people talk about the Patriots going 11-5 when Brady went out for the season. It’s true, but you have to remember they were 16-0 the year before, so they were a really good team even outside of their best player. The Bulls did make it to the second round without Jordan but they had 3 peated right before that. A team that is good enough to 3 peat isn’t going to drop that significantly, even if they lost their best player. I didn’t think it was that surprising when it happened

What? He finishes games now with fury. He’d just pass the ball in the past and play the more submissive offensive role.

Don’t remember him doing that in 09 against Orlando for that last-second shot, what about his 48 Special? What about his game 7 performance against the Spurs? What about his game-winner against Indiana in 2013 when he took that bitch to the rim? What about 2015 sideline winner against the Bulls? What about 45-15-5 against Boston with the 2012 SEASON ON THE LINE? The BLOCK against GSW and his subsequent free throw conversions to clinch the title? The NONSENSE us objective people have to put up with these days.

Yeah it's weird seeing how ridiculously good he is now and then watching that video and realizing he's about 3 steps behind his old self physically.

Also, it's one thing for haters to find ways to hate him now. And compare him to whoever and debate if he stacks up or not.

But dear god, how did people hate on him back then?

All I know is dude saved his legacy when he put up that 45-15-5 in game 6 against Boston, that was the crossroads the defining moment of his career and he did it on 73% shooting I remember where I was when I watched it too he was not gonna be denied that game. And as they say the rest is history but his early Cleveland days were simply phenomenal when we consider who his supporting cast was, he was the only guy I think capable of leading them anywhere other than the bottom of the standings.

Not LeBron’s fault the East consists of incompetent GMs who can’t assemble dominant squads outside of Boston despite their two elite players out due to injury, you play who you play and LeBron takes care of his biz

Anyone who thinks Kobe>MJ or Kobe remotely surpasses MJ in anything relative to greatness needs their heads examined because they lose all credibility in my eyes and I love Kobe he’s the closest to MJ I’ve ever seen but the stats and accomplishments don’t stack up lol I mean Michael has more rings and Finals MVPs than Kobe not to mention the stats to match cmon now

He's had this for 10 years and has been more clutch than Kobe his whole career. You just bought into the stupid sports media narrative

Are you retarded? Why would he? Do you really think he ran around in the 80's pretending to be an 8 year old from Philadelphia?

On 45 shots maybe. Reality is Kobe was just a volume scorer. Not one postseason or regular season where he shot over 50%. MJ did it 5 times in the postseason. LBJ did it 6 times working on a 7th in the postseason. Kobe isn't even in the same stratosphere as MJ or Bron. The only thing he did better than MJ is shoot the 3 but he took such awful shots his percentage doesn't show it. He was a better midrange guy than LBJ but again awful shot selection made him WAY less efficient.
