    Default What's more impressive - 6 straight Finals wins or 6 straight ECF wins?

    .
    If Jordan played in a weak conference and team-hopped to a squad with sufficient talent to make the Finals, he'd win the ECF every year, since he won the FINALS every year and he never underachieved on the basketball court

    There's a reason why Jordan didn't win titles until the Celtics/Lakers/Pistons faded away.

    The Lakers weren't fading in 1991 - Magic was runner-up for league MVP he averaged exactly 19/7/13 on 62% TS in both regular season and Finals.

    Worthy was All-NBA in 1991 too - he was the Lakers' leading scorer in regular season (21 ppg on 49.2%) and Finals (19.3 ppg on 47%).

    [COLOR="navy"]And the Lakers had far better personnel after Magic and Worthy:[/COLOR]

    Sam Perkins[COLOR="White"]........[/COLOR]14/7 and 17/8[COLOR="White"] ...........[/COLOR]Horace Grant[COLOR="White"].......[/COLOR]13/8 and 15/8

    Vlade Divac[COLOR="White"] ........[/COLOR]11/8 and 18/9[COLOR="White"]............ [/COLOR]John Paxson[COLOR="White"]........[/COLOR] 9/2 and 13/2

    AC Green[COLOR="White"].............[/COLOR] 9/6 and 6/6[COLOR="White"]..............[/COLOR] Cartwright[COLOR="White"]..........[/COLOR] 9/5 and 9/6

    Byron Scott[COLOR="White"].........[/COLOR] 15/4 and 6/3[COLOR="White"].............[/COLOR] Armstrong[COLOR="White"]...........[/COLOR] 9/3 and 2/1


    Lakers had better talent, but when you have MJ dominating the Finals like no one else ever has, (the GOAT destroying Magic on biggest stage), you don't need nearly as much help..

    Jordan never won 6 in a row. Just a heads up.

    He never attempted to win 6 straight. He quit both times after winning the 3rd straight.

    that's what happens when you average 36/7/8 in the 1991-1993 Finals.

    that's the most dominance the NBA has ever seen, which left no more challenges for Jordan - no challenges is death to a competitor like Jordan, so he retired.

    he was too good for the league

    So 95 ECF never happened? Or the entire 94 season? Ok.

    Jordan won 6 straight Finals that he entered - that's a fact - and that's more impressive than winning 6 straight ECF's

    So keep dreaming when you think Jordan might not win successive ECF's in a weak conference after team-hopping to a squad with good talent.

    Jordan didn't reach the Finals in 1995. He lost in the 1995 EC Semifinals.

    He didn't reach 6 straight Finals.

    He reached 3 straight twice.

    Jordan won 6 straight Finals that he entered, which is more impressive than Lebron winning 6 straight ECF's that he entered.

    Beating Finals teams is more impressive than beating ECF teams.
