Would Jordan have won with this Wade as his Pippen?

[Reverend Hoops]

Give Bron his props.

Would Lebron have won with a hobbled Pippen and mediocre Bulls cast in '98?

Quit the premature comparisons.

Yes. He is now.

Wade is hurt.

[97 bulls]

Wade finally got out of his way. But lets not act like thiis series has been all james and nothing else. Chalmer, Battier, Bosh, have made huge contributiiions. As well as wade

[CavaliersFTW]

two shooting guards?

[Soundwave]

This version of Wade is still honestly probably a better scorer than Pippen ever was.

Pip wasn't great at creating his own shot and if his jumper wasn't falling then Jordan would have no choice but to carry the load (ie: the flu game).

And Bosh is far better offensively than any big Jordan ever played with.

Anyone who thinks this team:

C- Anthony/who cares
PF- Bosh
SF- Battier
SG- Jordan
PG- Wade

Couldn't win a title is delusional. They'd beat the Mavericks last year and probably sweep this Thunder squad with all the mistakes they keep making.

Exactly. And I'm a huge fan of Pippen's (who in all fairness was battling injuries in both '97 and 98).

Seriously.

Top 3 players by PER on the '12 Heat in the postseason after Lebron:

Wade - 21.9
Bosh - 18.5 (in 13 games)
Chalmers - 13.2

Top 3 by PER on the Bulls during the playoffs during several title seasons:

1992:

Pippen - 20.1
Grant - 16.3
Armstrong - 13.5

1993:

Grant - 17.0
Pippen - 16.9

Jordan did just as much with just as little, and did so several times over.

Jordan would have won with a midget as his Pippen

Lebron has been playing GOAT basketball this postseason. Especially in the finals. I never liked lebron until he came to Miami but I just don't see how people can hate this guys game. Dude is doing everything from scoring to rebounds assists steals.

This too.

Just out of curiosity, does per include defense? Factor in running the offense? Or rebounding?

[SilkkTheShocker]

No, because Jordan isn't as good as Lebron.

How many times have we had this kind of conversation and you go straight to scoring? Come on bro. Pippens role on the Bulls goes right past scoring.

Im not asking you about the OP. Im asking about your post. Youre trying to center your argument around per.
