The NBA was watered down with weak drafts and two expansion teams... the 3 point line was shortened... he never played against any of the other "Great Teams" that Bird, Magic, Dr. J or Thomas had to face. He never faced any other teams that had the absolute top players on them either...
Chicago won the NBA championship 6 out of 8 years with Jordan. They also lost to Detroit in the playoffs two years, who were NBA champions, prior to their run. Those Detroit teams was pretty good like them or not.
Additionally, these stats make a very convincing argument for Jordan.
