Message: [QUOTE="Matrim55, post: 2401574, member: 3376"] That's just completely untrue. Last year was the first during LeBron's career during which the league pace was over 96 possessions per 48 minutes; Jordan never saw a league pace below 96 per 48 until after his first retirement. For five of Jordan's first six years, the league pace was over 100. This year, wild as it is, it's just 99 per 48. LeBron never played in a league with a pace over 92 until 2013/14, so 12 of his 15 years are 92 or under. Only six of Jordan's 15 seasons – including his 94/95 comeback year, and the Wizards years – were 92 or less. His entire prime, before the first retirement, came in a league that played at a faster pace than any LeBron's ever played in until this year.
