And **** you Huff. The only other Bull in double digits was kukoc with 15.
He scored over half their points, and he didint turn the ball over.
Then he hit the game winner.
He didn't get others involved, so 15 points to TK is no surprise. MJ scored 45 off 43 possessions. His teammates scored 42 off 42 possessions.
If your argument is that his team sucked, it's not a good argument because he was barely better than them.
Counting turnovers, he was 2 points over par on 43 possessions with 1 assist. A normal night for a great scorer would be 5 points over par on 25 possessions. In game 1, Lebron was 12 points over par on 37 possessions with 8 assists in regulation and that wasn't enough to win.
We can quibble about how good MJ's performance was, but he was lucky ass that the game was within reach.
It was a slugfest played in slow motion. He had not played such a ball dominant game in ages, and he didnt **** it up.
Dont give me effeciency stats for his teammates. They weren't creating anything and everyone but Kukoc played like a scared *****.
Don't babble about who was guarding him, either. He didn't get the single coverage dare you to shoot treatment like certain lebrons who I wont mention the name of.
You sure about that? Looks like he had all kinds of space and single coverage

Those were poetry in motion. That is one thing people take into account when they say Jordan is the GOAT. He just did everything smoother on offense and hit so many acrobatic shots and pretty dunks. He has so many iconic plays. His hangtime and creativity set him apart.
I cant really think of any of Lebron's plays that is considered an all time great highlight. MJ has the hand switch on the Lakers, the back and forth baseline dunk on the Knicks and a ton more.
Maybe I'm missing some. Does Lebron have any iconic plays like those? I know he has some buzzerbeaters but that is not what I mean.

Maybe the worst argument for Jordan, ever
Also, the MJ hand switch is the most overrated play in the history of basketball. He didn't even need to do it. Nobody was contesting the shot. The degree of difficulty is not high, either. How is this an iconic play?
Even if this were true, you're talking about style, not substance.
