    So Jordan led a low seed and undecorated cast of role players over a better opponent than Lebron ever beat in the East, while Lebron needed high seeds and teammates with all-star resumes just to make the playoffs

    Jordan beat the #1 SRS Cavs and numerous top 5 SRS teams with poor scoring and efficiency from a sidekick (carry-jobs against a good teams), while Lebron has zero carry-jobs against good teams in 2 decades of playing.. (we already know that he can't handle the additional jumpshooting required of tough carry-jobs and infact avoids contested jumpers)

    Btw, only Lebron lost to 1-star teams (09', 11')... Only Lebron lost as the favorite (09-11' and 14')... Only Lebron lost with super-teams (14', 17')... Only Lebron lost by record amount (14', 18')... Don't compare this bum to Jordan

    TLDR: From 2013-2016, Wade had the same PER, WS/48, scoring, efficiency and assists as prime Pippen:. People were simply disappointed that he fell from "Flash" Wade to Pippen-level (wade's assists were actually depressed under lebron, but otherwise Wade had previously been a bigger assist guy than pippen)

    Beating regular season overachieving ensemble casts is not a particularly impressive achievement. Such teams are routinely exposed in the playoffs. As mentioned earlier, this is similar to LeBron sweeping the four all-star 2015 Hawks with JR what's the score Smith as his best help.
