Jordan going 6-0 in the Finals just throws the whole thing off. TBQH I think LeBron over the past 5-6 years has been better than Jordan ever was, but they're different players in different eras.

Sorry, but in no world was Lebron ever better than MJ. Especially not in the mental toughness and intangibles department. MJ wasn't a great teammate but he had a mental fortitude I've only seen Kobe, Dirk, and Duncan come close to matching since. MJ also played before the hand check rule and got absolutely pummeled.
Finals six years in a row is without a doubt a feat, but we all know that Lebron wouldn't have been able to do that in the West. Lebron chose the best situation for him by going to Miami then back to Cleveland. The fact that MJ accomplished what he did with the team he was drafted with speaks volumes.
