You must not be familiar with the supporting cast Jordan had to deal with his first five years in the league. More help defense, are you out of your mind? Oh yes, those dominating intimdators the Bulls had of Cartwright, Wennington and Longley, vs Kobe having Shaq. Hell, Kwame Brown would have been a defensive upgrade to anything the Bulls had clogging up the middle.

I'm 30. I meant over 2 guys from
anywhere. I know early on Jordan didn't have much help, that's why I was comparing him to Kobe now, having to do all the work and scoring a lot, but not winning much. I'm talking about the help from the championship level team of the Bulls. Put Kobe on Jordan's championship level team and you would probably get the same result or better. They are pretty even IMO. Kobe is a better scorer, Jordan is a better defender. I think Jordan had more help longer though, which resulted in more championships. It's really hard to compare both. I'm just tired of hearing Jordan is the best cuz a bunch of people say so and Kobe isn't even close, even after what he has accomplished. Jordan didnt win a championship till he was Kobe's age and Kobe's got a lot of time left and 3 championships and a lot of accolades already.
