Proof Jordan > Kareem and Shaq
Let's say Jordan and Shaq swapped sidekicks.
How many rings does Shaq win if he has Pippen instead of Kobe?... and does Shaq win in 2006 with Pippen instead of Wade?
Now let's look at Kareem - How many rings does Kareem win with Pippen instead of Magic?
This alone means Jordan > Kareem and Shaq... Period.
And then of course we can look at it from Jordan's point of view - how much better would Jordan have done if he played with Magic Johnson, 2006 Wade, or prime Kobe, instead of Pippen?
And see that's the problem - even if Jordan had played with Magic Johnson instead of Pippen, it's still hard to imagine Jordan being better off than he already was, because he already could have broken Bill Russell's record for championships in a row (8) if his dad hadn't gotten murdered.

and even for the part you question, i said "COULD" have broken Russell's record of 8 in a row... "COULD" have.... which is true
as it was, he got 3/4 of the way there, and got closer than anyone else ever has.

You never said anything about "in a row." Your wording implies 11 total.
Plus, KAJ was 32yrs old when Magic got there. You wanna give a 32yr old MJ (95-96 season) rookie Magic and say Jordan wouldn't play better?

if his father wasn't unluckily murdered, Jordan would've had a chance to break Russell's record of 8 in a row.
does that makes sense, or do you need me to go slower?

He would win less with Kobe and wade..poor fit, diminishing returns. Pippen anchored the bulls defense.. and was best facilitator.
And mj would probably fight with magic after losing fmvp award and being demoted to beta.
