at least 7 championships? (no...robert horry doesnt count) multiple individual accolades (8 time league mvp, 5 time defensive player of the year, etc.) ? more clutch performances than u can shake a stick at? or being a prototypical, physical specimen w/ an extremely high basketball IQ and a undying will to win who played and won against the toughest competition?

being compared to mj is a lofty achiement in itself. but what in your opinion would make people feel this guy has raised the bar?
