I've never ranked him above Jordan, but if he has anything over Michael it's durability and consistency. The guy has had a 23 year career, and he pretty much puts up the same numbers year after year after year. No matter what team, no matter who his teammates are, no matter if he's "feeling" healthy or not.
He's probably near the very end right now....but he's already done it longer and played more games then anybody ever, if you count the playoffs.

If I were to rank him over Jordan, it would be because he does so many things well besides score. Who else in the history of the sport is as versatile, could pretty much play any position (maybe Magic)? His personality has done him no favors in terms of being unpopular, but what a magnificent basketball player.
