More Than 6 Rings – Michael Jordan’s Legacy: The case for Jordan being the greatest NBA player of all time

It’s been 20 years since Michael Jordan officially retired from the Bulls (a full six months after his final game in a Chicago uniform due to the lockout). At the time, Jordan was the unquestioned standard of not just basketball excellence, but every field. It was common for people who excelled in whatever they were doing to be referred to as the Michael Jordan of their job. It was considered the ultimate compliment. Since his retirement, we’ve seen players approach his level of dominance on the basketball court, but with so many agendas being driven by obvious half-truths and obnoxious and desperate opinions for ratings and clicks, the question is where does Jordan honestly still stand amongst basketball royalty? Is Kobe truly more skilled than M.J.? Is Kareem more accomplished than him? Was Russell a better winner? Was Wilt a better scorer? Was Shaq more dominant? Did Jordan’s legacy dodge a bullet by not having to face Hakeem in 94 and 95? Was Bird and Magic’s impact more significant than Jordan’s in the NBA? How about Dr. J; did he pave the way for Jordan? And the elephant in the room, has Lebron surpassed Jordan?There is room for an honest discussion with all of these players, and this book will stack their resumes up against Jordan’s to determine if Jordan’s legacy is in fact worthy of unquestioned greatest of all-time status, or if he has been romanticized by fans. My guarantee to you that it will be unbiased, and there will be no agenda. There may be some uncomfortable truths explored, myths addressed, and legacies placed under spotlight.
