>Sam Walker makes the case that Jordan wouldn't have won without Cartwright. His team needed a selfless watercarrier to inspire the others to hustle rather than let the self-centered star do it all.
MJ was already implied to be "God-like" since the 80s when Bird said so, in 87'. Before Cartwright was even on the Bulls.
MJ was doing stupid shit right off the bat, out of the draft.
There is 0 chance he only won because of Cartwright. Or even MOSTLY because of Cartwright.
Put him on the Lakers, Celtics, or Pistons in the 80s, and he is winning a ring every year that decade.
