Yeah, I don't much agree with comparing a guy who had to quit on multiple cities and jump to multiple teams with other All-Stars just win titles. It's not even close to me.

Also I'm still waiting for the arguments of Bron vs Kareem because he hasn't surpassed that guy either.

Let me first ask if you understand how the CBA worked for both players and if you know the differences and we will discuss your first comments.

Oh, and KAJ should be in the discussion with Lebron and MJ.

Yep.

Had Jordan been drafted by the Kings for example with more modern CBA rules, does anyone think he is staying there his entire career?

And does anyone think he is winning titles for a poorly run franchise that isn’t putting other high quality pieces around him?

I don’t.

With current CBA rules with max salaries and the way he felt about the far better GM Krause would not have been surprised at all if he signed elsewhere (NY, maybe?) if they could offer closer to what other teams could.

This. Comparing the 2 eras is silly.

Right....guess possible he has no clue how different the 2 CBAs were. Never mind he ignores MJ also quit twice.
