    The best leaders don't need to consistently yell and bark orders. That's primitive stone age shit. Jordan was a moron on and off the court and that's why he's the literal worst GM in sports history.


    Regarding the yelling....

    If Jordan was gifted a 22/5/5 all-defender, an all-star center, and a future COY before ever playing a playoff game in a conference that 1-star teams were winning most years, then he would've had high seeds every year like Lebron and wouldn't need to yell..

    Jordan would've been coming out of a weak East with his high seeds most years.. But instead, Jordan had to carry 8 seeds of undecorated, bummy rosters and elevate them in a conference that required a super-team to win.

    That requires yelling - bums require yelling so they become tough and aren't bums.. Otoh, Lebron always had high seeds of decorated players in a weak conference, or super-teams in a weak conference.

    Meltdown

    Lebron had far weaker team offenses despite far greater offensive help, which confirms that Jordan played a smarter and more sophisticated way.. Jordan had goat offenses including four #1 offenses with goat margins above league average - this is despite playing 4 on 5 with Rodman and Pippen's bad efficiency or low peak production capability.

    Lebron's skillset of frontcourt ball-dominance results in a beginner format of 1 ball-dominator and 4 shooters that gets destroyed by ball movement and sophisticated, high assist teams in the Finals.

    Otoh, Jordan's skillset of elite jumpshooting skill with on-ball and off-ball diversity allowed good ball movement and the juggernaut #1 offenses/brands - the same kinds of superior, sophisticated brands that destroy Lebron in the Finals - Jordan's teams were the same superior brand like the Spurs, Warriors or Mavs that destroy Lebron

    There’s a reason he’s been starting for 14 years of being shit on by fans
