NFT: If the Bulls won the championship in 94...

BestFeature : 10/22/2016 5:58 pm
...would Jordan's legacy have taken a bit of a hit? I'm watching an NHL alumni game of the Oilers and Jets. Made me think of the fact that Mark Messier won a cup with the Oilers after Gretzky was traded. So it made me wonder if the Bulls winning a championship without Jordan would have hurt his legacy at all.
I don't think it would tarnish Jordan's legacy

just like I don't think Gretzky's was tarnished. If anything, it would give Pippen's legacy a tremendous boost.
What if the nicks won in 94

Would John starks be a superstar?
I guess I see Jordan's legacy as being greater than Gretzky's

I feel like Jordan in some ways is seen as the biggest winner of the modern NBA if not modern sports. So if you want to say that Gretzky's legacy wouldn't have been better if the Oilers hadn't won in 1990, I wonder if Jordan was in a different situation.

Gretzky dominated his sport to an extent that no one else has since Babe Ruth.
