"Today's NBA is soft, the Defense is weak, and the rules 'really' favor the Offense."
"Lebron doesn’t guard for a full game and our game plan was to get him to play defense and he left me open all game."
jordan didn’t have a left hand which was ever so apparent and idk why teams didn’t exploit that even more just shows how dumb bball iq and analytics were in the 90s (or non existent) even with that said he’s still the GOAT but IMHO tied with Kobe.

Lebron is pretty good too.
Jordan was just as strong going left as he was going right. There is more that enough evidence to confirm that fact, so not sure why you keep making that false claim.

Always cracks me up when they try to hype LeBron with this help or lack of etc. Jordan had pippen. LeBron, had a mile long list, lol. The rejects in this board won’t even acknowledge it. Lebron has had some absolutely blowout losses with all star teammates.

Cut it out already will ya... it's a silly assertion. Mike would average 40-45 a night on 60% in today's Modern Era, and if he played alongside a WHOPPING 31(!!!) all-star/HOF level teammates throughout his career (like LeBron), fuhgeddaboudit... Championship every single year without question:

If the 90's was such a weak era, why did the Lakers not dominate any given year?
Why do you rate the 90's weaker than the 70's.
Great question... throughout the 90's the Lakers had a total of seven (7) All-Stars and six (6) HOFERS on their rosters, including Kobe and prime Shaq (during the latter half of the decade); hell, in 1998 they had Not 1, Not 2, Not 3 but four (4) All-Stars YET they kept getting demolished in the WC playoffs every year.
Put Kobe and Shaq in today's Modern Era and they'd win 70 games and the Championship every season.
Fact.

It was just weak. Period. It is extremely obvious in hindsight. The only era that compares is the 70s because of the ABA diluting talent. The talent level now, compared to the 90s is absurdly disproportionate. It is true at virtually every position but especially with wing players. It is true in top end talent and it is true in depth of talent. If you aren't married to an era for emotional reasons, it is obvious as sin.

NBA, NHL, MLB talent due to foreign players are all better than anything of the 90's.

That's definitely part of it. Arguably, the four best players in the NBA aren't American. Jokic, SGA, Doncic and Giannis. It's added greatly to the talent pool. It's more than just that, but that's a big factor.
Guys might be more athletic today but that doesn’t equal better basketball players. Hell the league today had its two best players being white and not athletic at all in Joker and Doncic lol.
Imagine someone calling the 90's weak, and then turning around and calling a player from the 1950's-60's the GOAT... ... you simply canNot take that person seriously since they lack all credibility.

...AND neither one plays Defense either.
On that note, imagine believing Bill Russell is the GOAT solely because of his Defense, then turning around and claiming today's game/players are sooo superior when there's very little Defense played.
