What If Series #2 - Blazers Drafted Jordan Instead of Bowie

[key2win]

This is something new I am trying to get some discussions and opinions going. I will post a new What If Series at least once a week. Hope everyone enjoys these discussion threads and feel free to post your opinons on the topic. So the next What If Topic is

What if the Portland Trailblazers drafted Michael Jordan in the 1984 NBA Draft instead of Sam Bowie?

Portland had the 2nd Pick in the 1984 NBA Draft. Hakeem Olajuwon went 1st to the Houston Rockets. What do you think would happen if Portland actual chose Michael Jordan. Do you think MJ would have been the same player that he became today? Do you think MJ would have won 6 titles in Portland and become the icon he is today?

I would assume Portland would have 6 rings and not Chicago lol

Also the Pistons would've been in the finals more probably

No way.... The Blazers didn't have Pippen or Phil Jackson.

Let just assume that with even MJ, the Blazers would have still drafted the same players. With a team consisting of Kevin Duckworth, Jerome Kersey, Terry Porter, Clyde Drexler, Danny Ainge, and Michael Jordan, they would have won a few NBA Finals in the late 80s/early 90s.
