First of all, we congratulate James on his re-election as Sports Illustrated's Sports Person of the Year. However, judging from his current honor, James has not reached the level of 1 in NBA history. But if James can lead the Lakers to two or three consecutive championships, then James's historical position is likely to reach the height of 1 in NBA history. Although Jordan has an outstanding career achievement, we should not over-myth Jordan, because there is a big gap between the confrontation level in Jordan's era and the current confrontation level.

First, the pace of NBA games is faster than that of Jordan. It is really not easy for James to maintain a strong state in today's NBA. And James' current level can still reach the level of MVP. More importantly, the pace of NBA is getting faster and faster, which also leads to many slower players simply unable to keep up with the pace of NBA development today. Therefore, if Jordan comes to play in today's NBA, he may not achieve much.

Second, Jordan can't win the NBA championship without strong teammates. Jordan's six NBA championships were all helped by Pippen. Although Pippen's historical position in NBA is far from that of Jordan, Pippen did play an important role in the tactical system of Bulls. However, James can win NBA championships in different teams in a row, which really shows James' own ability to lead the team.

Third, James' competition for the NBA championship is completely in line with the current rules of NBA wage space. Although Jordan has won six NBA championships, Jordan's contract salary for a period of time is not included. So this also gives the bulls a lot of extra advantages. However, James's salary is completely in line with the salary space of NBA, so James's achievements in NBA rules are far better than Jordan's.

I don't want to over-myth Jordan as a player. As can be seen from Jordan's documentary, Jordan is not an invincible player. Because Jordan was defeated by larry bird and Pistons Bad Boy in his early career. But some fans who don't watch the ball always like to flatter Jordan.
