yes they are.
teams would try to crush Jordan on the 80's/90's to send a message, especially during the playoffs.
Bron doesn't get that, because 95% of the league would get HURT trying to stand in front of a 6'8" 275lb LeBron that runs as fast as Calvin Johnson...
Jordan scared people with his athletic ability, his jump shot, his quick first step and his uncanny ability to finish at the rim - Bron does all those things, but he can do it playing all 5 positions on the floor.
that's what serparates good from great. if you can play G, PG, PF, SF and Center at any given moment during the regular season and playoffs, win MVP's and collect rings, then you have defined greatness....
can you imagine Jordan posting up Hakeem or Ewing or Robinson !?!? nope, because he didn't possess those elite traits.
Bron does - and Bron will post up Dwight, he'll post up Anthony Davis, he'll post up Kevin Garnett and completely smash his colon in.
Bron can also pass a basketball at 40mph BACKHANDED from the 3 point line and hit Wade straight in his sternum under the basket.
Jordan only wishes he possessed Bron's strength in the post and Bron's passing ability....
seriously, watch Bron make a backhanded pass on a rope from 20 feet away - it gets there in a hurry.
