Why do people love to deny Michael Jordan's greatness?

It all comes down to jealousy and biased intentions. There are 3 types of fans that try to take away from Jordan's greatness.

1. LeBron fans: They try to make desperate claims that Jordan isn't as "all-around" as LeBron and ride that false claim until the end of time just to prove a point that makes no sense. Why? Because LeBron grabbed more rebounds being bigger and stronger and got more assists? What happened to the fact that Jordan is a much more diverse scorer who has a much more refined post game, much better footwork, the same amount of athletic ability WITH fundamentals (unlike LeBron), better jump shooting and handling ability? What about the fact that Jordan is a better 1 on 1 defender? What about the fact that Jordan is more reliable as a performer, more clutch, and is the BEST NBA Finals performer in the history of basketball? LeBron isn't one of the greatest NBA finals performers, and Jordan is the BEST on the BIGGEST stage of them all. LeBron trumps all of that because of a couple more rebounds and assists? I think not.

2. Kobe fans: Jordan trumps Kobe in every single category, even Kobe's best attribute, scoring. Jordan as a SG actually shot over 50% before, and Kobe has never shot over 46%, yet Jordan played in a much more physical era WITH hand-checking. Jordan's playoff numbers, elimination game numbers, and NBA Finals numbers are all considerably better than Kobe's despite playing against better players in a more physical era. Where exactly is the debate in this?

3. Old school fans: The most laughable of all the Jordan haters, BY FAR. I have seen a few old school clowns make claims like the 90s were watered down, and Jordan is all hype, just because these fans simply can't admit the players they like from that era dominated a primitive, less developed, non-athletic era. The most laughable part is some of these fans will try to make claims that Wilt is the GOAT for dominating 6'6-6'8, 195-220lb centers (small forwards), and that Russell is the GOAT for getting 11 rings with the most stacked team (who completely took care of the offensive end so he could focus only on his strengths, rebounding and defense) in NBA history, with like 8 teams and a few playoff rounds. Knowing this, those type of fans BLATANTLY ignore it, and try to shove this idea down people's throats that having less teams supposedly means the competition was better. Then the most laughable part of all is they will know this, and still try to put Jordan as the 7th or 8th best player on their all-time list. It's a JOKE!

I DISLIKE Jordan. I don't think Jordan is the undisputed GOAT. Hakeem, Magic, Kareem, and Bird all have cases for GOAT. But IMO, Jordan is the GOAT (not by far like ESPN tries to make it seem), and can't go any lower than 5 on an all-time list.

EDIT: Notice the arguments against him have been totally biased and irrational? It's so ridiculous it's almost as if some of these people are trolling because no one can be this stupid. "A ball headed Wilkins."? Lol, ignorance is a hell of a thing man.

Michael Jordan's career without Pippen:

1-10 in playoffs

3 first round playoff LOSSES

Swept in playoffs not once, but TWICE!

Completely missed playoffs not once, but TWICE!

NOT voted to start in All Star Game (2003)

CHOKED in GAME 3 of 1986 playoffs by scoring only 5 points in the final 3 quarters

5 LOSING records (sub .500)

Led a very talented Tarheel squad to early tournament exits not once, but TWICE!

Without Pippen, MJ is a bald headed Dominique Wilkins

Larry Bird used to LOVE to play mind games with opponents. Look at what Jordan did in the very next game - on his HOME COURT ....19 points (with 5 points coming in the final 3 quarters) . That's not very God-like lol

Jordan was the most over-hyped athlete ever, in order to sell shoes to sheep like you!

Hope this helps

Jealousy is often a reason.

Others want to deny him his place because he was not on their team.

Regardless - it is settled case law - Jordan was the greatest and probably will never be surpassed.

Because Steve Blake is a better player

The 90s was slow and unathletic. You had guys like Stockton going to the finals. Come on Horaneck had the job to guard Jordan. Jordan was way ahead of everyone in his position. That is why I think Jordan is overrated. Jordan never really played against a formidable counter/part. LeBron would have beat Jordan no doubt in my mind. LeBron just does it all. He can score 37 points on just 18 shots. Imagaine if he took 36 shots thats 74 points that he could score. He passes and rebounds fluidly on the court. LeBron will be better than Jordan all he has to do is rack up rings.

People always want to see someone surpass greatness hence comparisons
