What if Jordan never got bored and retired/was shadow suspended (if you believe the conspiracy theories). Would the Bulls have won 8 straight? 6? How would Hakeem's career been perceived if they couldn't beat the Bulls instead of getting Ewing and a not yet ready to win Shaq?
On the opposite side of that, what if Jordan didn't come back?
At the time of Jordan’s first retirement, he was the undisputed GOAT of basketball. His gap between him and #2 on the all time list was substantial.
It’s possible Jordan could be thought of as even higher had he stayed retired.
