No, it equates to the biggest stat stuffer of all time. Jordan's efficiency stats are actually better with a higher PER and WS/48 than lebron. And bron's efficiency #'s will only continue to decline going forward.

Rings AND numbers + hardware are MJ's legacy. Or are you forgetting that he won a record 10 scoring titles, 5 MVPs, DPOY, and has the highest career scoring average in NBA history?

No. His legacy is the totality of all his accomplishments (some briefly mentioned above.) the rings are his trump card.

Yeah, that's not what you said.
>BYE!
Bye, liar.
