    At least he shot better than Randy Brown.

    And Pippen played better in 91 Finals than Jordan "when it mattered" as well. His defense on Magic was the real MVP of that series.

    mj was the primary defender on Payton for games 3 and 5 (let me know if you need YouTube links).. he was also the primary defender on Magic, Drexler, and Miller, aka the opponent's top perimeter player

    and rodman let kemp dominate the series -kemp got FMVP votes

    finally, only mj held his man down in Game 6, so he accounts for the win, as described previously - only mj held his man to 12 points below his average, hence the 12 point win

    who cares - jordan was the best Bulls player in Game 6 (led in scoring, assists and defense) and he'd already won the series in the first 3 games

    finally, lebron shot worse in 3 Finals than MJ ever did 97', 15' and 13'... in 13', his TS was woat)

    Jordan = exposed
    0 playoff series wins until Pippen entered the league
    0 championships until Pippen entered his prime
    1993-94 Bulls Pippen came way closer to a championship than pre-Pippen Bulls Jordan
    1999-00 Blazers Pippen came way closer to a championship than post-Pippen Wizards Jordan
    Jordan = exposed
