Someone on the NBA board made a long post showing how Michael Jordan is the greatest player and it is not even close. Some of them include 5 MVPs, 6 Finals MVPs, 6 championships, highest career scoring average (even higher than Wilt!), highest career PER, highest winshares, most scoring titles, most points in NBA playoff game...

One response I've seen on this board to those accomplishments is "oh, Micheal Jordan was years ahead of his competition but in the current nba he wouldn't stand a chance"

Which I think is hilariously missing the point, if he was so good that he both changed the entire sport and inspired most of the players who went on to make the game what it is today then he's the one who all of that should be attributed (in varying degrees) to.

It's like how there's plenty of singers better than Elvis, but he's remembered as the King because of how much of an influence he made at the time and to the music that followed.
