Was Jordan's Finals Competition Overrated?

[SilkkTheShocker]

Lakers- Old and past prime
Blazers- Low IQ team that had history of choking
Suns-Nothing in the middle
Sonics - Shawn no better than Blake Griffin. Rodman real Finals MVP
Jazz - No bench and there 3rd and 4th options were Hornacek and Russell. Stockton past prime.

2012 OKC and 2013 Spurs would beat all of those teams.

Lebron James has shot under 50% in 17/22 finals games.

[StocktonFan]

No but the heats was
Spurs - old and slow
OKC - low IQ (westbrook)

[Bandito]

Well is not like I can dispute Op's informative facts. Oh wait I can...

OKC young, not yet in prime and unproven. Nothing in the middle that has high IQ
Spurs old and past prime

I win with my irrefutable "facts"...

I think you meant to put this part in your next agenda driven thread. You know, the one about how Jordan is overrated and shouldn't have the MVPs he has.

OKC was proven. They were in the WCF the year before.

Is OP a fakkit?

Because the Spurs were old, injured and past their prime.

Every team Jordan played was watered down. The Bulls were the only team that had 2 MVP caliber players.

The only actual competition was Shaqs Magic. In 1995 the Magic absolutely ****ed them. Bulls beat them in 96 since they added another elite hall of fame player in Dennis Rodman while the Magic didn't have Horace Grant. Bulls only win when they have more hall of famers.

Jordan didnt't win 6 rings because of his individual greatness. He won them because his team had the most overwhelming talent in the league and noone was close.

LeBrons championships are much more impressive than any of Jordans. LeBron has to do everything at an elite level for Miami to win playoff games. Jordan just has to worry about scoring.

The same Spurs people were calling a historically good team during the postseason and had won 12 games in a row? Btw, im not sure have posted in a thread that you didn't post in right afterwards

It is a coincidence is not like there are a lot of threads to choose from

But to answer the question they are a good team in the postseason but let's not act like they are young, uninjured the last 2 years and in their prime. This year was the first time in years they were somewhat healthy (I am mostly talking about Gino btw).

Reading the opinions on this board is so sad sometimes. This board proves that abortions should remain legal.
