On July 7, Beijing time, James, the superstar of contemporary basketball, although he has amazing basketball skills and the fanatical support of countless fans, he has never been able to gain the upper hand in comparison with Jordan, the god of basketball. The reasons for this, from the number of championships to the luxury of his teammates, constitute an insurmountable chasm.
First of all, the number of championships is an important measure of a player's historical status. Jordan has won the NBA championship six times in his career, an achievement that is not only a reflection of his personal ability, but also a testament to his leadership to the top. And James, although he has also won the championship many times, is obviously still inferior to Jordan's six times. This numerical gap is like an invisible barrier, making James struggling on the road to surpassing Jordan.
Secondly, the luxury of teammates is also an important factor that affects the historical status of the player. When Jordan was with the Bulls, he was surrounded by a number of star players such as Pippen and Rodman, but they were all under Jordan's leadership and fought for the championship together. In James's career, although he has also had many star teammates, such as Wade, Irving, etc., their luxury always seems to be higher than Jordan's teammates. Although the blessing of this luxurious lineup has brought more victories to James, it also makes him lack the courage and determination to "lead the team with a single core" when facing Jordan.
