On the NBA stage, what is the highest honor for a player? MVP or championship, or FMVP selected by the media? This answer is different, but on the whole, the one who has achieved the most honors in his entire career is undoubtedly the greatest existence! I think this statement is the least controversial, so James and Jordan in terms of honor, if you remove the championship, who do you think has more advantages? Coincidentally, the American media "FW" has given such an opinion, let's take a look at it together.
James: 4 MVP, 19 All-Star, 19 NBA All-Defensive Team, 6 All-Defensive Team, 1 Rookie of the Year, 1 Scoring Champion, 1 Assist Champion and 3 AMVP
Jordan: 5 MVPs, 14 All-Stars, 11 NBA All-NBA All-NBA All-NBA Team, 9 All-Defensive Team, 1 Defensive Player of the Year, 1 Rookie of the Year, 10 Scoring Champions, 3 Steals Champions, 3 AMVP and 2 Dunk Contest Champions
After the comparison of honors, it can be seen very intuitively that James's honors over Jordan are All-Star (19-14), Best Team (19-11) and 1 assist king, and Jordan's honors better than James are MVP (5-4), Best Defensive Team (9-6), Best Defensive Player (1-0), Scoring King (10-1), Steal King (3-0) and 2-time Slam Dunk Contest champion, so the conclusion is 3-6!
In terms of honors, excluding the championship (including FMVP), the gap between James and Jordan is bigger than imagined, after all, the gap between the heavyweight MVP and the scoring champion is really not small, and if you add the number of championships and FMVP, this gap is not something that Durant can fill!
For this reason, there will naturally be fans who think that if you compare career data, such as total scoring data, rebounds and assists and other technical statistics, Jordan is not James's opponent, but don't forget, in terms of total, James does have an obvious advantage, but if you change it to average data per game, you will find that Jordan is still the strongest scorer, and the same is true in terms of efficiency.
