Great post.
Anyone who says the 90's have stronger competition than today's NBA is just straight delusional. Look at what happened when Jordan faced real tough competition like the Bad Boy Pistons and the Celtics, he got destroyed. When MJ finally got over the hump was when the Pistons were old.
Lebron would have absolutely feasted on those teams.

also all the teams LeBron lost to in the Finals were better than any MJ's opponents (with Mavs being an exception but still midtier for Jordan's opponents)

Re: Teams LeBron Beat in the Finals >>> Teams Jordan Beat in the Finals
To be fair...I think any of the top players of all time could have had success in Jordans place and still won championships under Phil Jackson. Maybe not as many, but a few for sure.

co sign even the teams that Lebron lost too was better than anything Jordan faced. The Finals comp since 2010 up to this point just better period.
2011 Mavs team would beat any Jordan team they beat. Dirk as a number scoring option is a better scorer than Magic,Drexler,Barkley,Kemp,Malone.
Than the 2012 Thunder beat the last 3 NBA Champions that came out the West so they were young but was a legit team.

By Any Means
Re: Teams LeBron Beat in the Finals >>> Teams Jordan Beat in the Finals
You are underrating the Sonics, some coaching adjustments and that series would have went 7. They were a Nasty team, just like the 92 Blazers were body. That team was crazy good. 91 Lakers....eh.... I would need to rewatch them but they seemed like a shell of themselves.
I need to rewatch some the Jazz games because from what I remember when I went back and watch some seasons a couple years ago... they aren't two impressive, they just capitalized on a Western Conference in transition imo. With the Rockets core expiring, Sonics fumbling with bad GM decisions and a lot of young talent learning how to win(Kobe and Shaq, Tim Duncan, KG).
Overall, Stockton and Malone were great, but....ehh..... I'd rather face them instead of Golden State and SAS.
Overall I feel like the West was going through a transition period because if you think about it, that conference was straight up absymal, I'm talking worse than early 2000's East bad during the 80's and a lot of teams long in the tooth(Jazz,Rockets,Lakers,Blazers) got to take advantage of it .
