The NBA is nothing like it was when Jordan won his rings in fact it's better. Jordan won his rings in a weak era. note how Jordan didn't win a single ring in the 80's when the celtics, lakers, 76ers and pistons were running shit. It took for Larry Bird to get old and injured and the Bad Boys to break up for the Bulls to win those titles. As far as talent centralized on a single team the 90's were weak. The Bulls and the Jazz were the only teams where you had 2 or more truly dominant allstars.

Btw Ray does't bury that clutch 3 if LeBron doesn't carry them back into with 14 in the fourth and LeBron making a 3 on the possession before that one. Also the heat got raped on foul calls in the 3rd quarter of game 6. A heat player drives and gets smacked no call. A spurs player drives foul right away. In fact the spurs had the freethrow advantage all series. Also don't play the spurs like they're old. Only old people are Duncan Ginobli and Parker. Leonard, Neal, Splitter, Green, Joseph, De Colo and Blair are all young players under the age of 30

Lastly Rodman isn't exactly the person to go to for sane thoughts on basketball. If you stop in think about it LeBron is bigger, stronger and faster than the athletes back then. hell even got about 25 pounds on Bill during his playing days. couple that with there being no zoning allowed and players were allowed to carry more. it would be nightmarish to seem him play then.

btw you don't seem to remember Jordan got more foul calls then anyone. Checkout his playoff numbers and notice how he averaged more than 10 attempts per game every post season and it wasn't uncommon for him to shoot 20 in any given game. Plus how hasn't he caught Kobe? or are we using rings as the pure measure of the greatness of an athlete
