It's simple. All you have to do is watch the Jordan documentary and it shows you just how much better he was than everybody. I saw both live since being a season ticket holder for the HEAT and Jordan was just a better overall player. He did everything. He didn't miss game winning shots.
Well as sour grapes as it sounds, I can’t stand what Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, etc. got away with in last decade plus pre-NIL.
Not canesMe: Coming in here expecting to see news about Elijah Griffin
The thread: Basketball, Lebron, Jordan, Brady, Mahomes
UGA hired Smart as well to figure out wtf Bama was doing so KB could adapt their ways to Bamas. That’s why UGA took off…..and once Oregon saw what Mario was doing they hired Lanning so they won’t ever go back to their cheap recruiting ways. All part of that Saban tree, some of that tree wasn’t good at all though. You have to pick the right ones. I believe even without NIL (this is my opinion) Mario does the same thing on the trail with the university backing him. Firing all the non football people and cleaning house and making it a football program.
All-time 80s and 90s shooting guards
I believe the Bulls would have won 8 in a row. I will always be a Jordan guy.
Yeah the entire argument comes down to which metric do you use to measure greatness. Which is why the argument lives, just as the Wilt v Russell argument was such a great one.
Jordan would light up the league in this era. Back when he played if you came down the middle you were getting smashed. Now if you blow on a player it's a foul. There is very little defense played in today's game.
I think Jordan could average close to 40 with the current rules. As it was he averaged 35-36 with all the physical play of the 80’s.
Great list. As a Sixers fan, thanks for including Hersey Hawkins.
People forget how great the game was back then, because of how the game is played today. Shooting guards in this era would not be **** if the game did not evolve....there is absolutely no defense being played in today's game!!
Man hate to have to defend Brady but Because during the portion that he was he won more superbowls than Peyton and Rodgers combined lol.
Kobe didn't come into his own until 2000. Also all these guys are good but most of them are not hofers. All the guys I named are hofers and for the most part top 75 players. Dumars isn't better than most if not any of the guys I named. Same with Reggie and Mitch Richmond. Clyde is great also but I don't think he is better than most of my name drops. Jordan was great but he was before his time. He would thrive now but he would get his *** bust also. He ain't averaging 40 plus also. Teams will not allow him to get one on ones like he did in the triangle. They would double and get the ball out of his hands. You only had him and Clyde and Dominique who were Uber athletic back then now all these dude are Uber athletic ****. Also I don't think the bills would've won 8 in a row when they lose Horace they didn't have any size. When they got rodman they had three all NBA first team defenders on the same team. The bulls were the most talented team in the 90s and like I said they never went against a team more talented than them. Also if karl Malone knocked down a few free throws bulls might have lose one of those finals.
I too believe that Kendall Gill and Hershey Hawkins would have been multiple time champions if not for Michael Jeffrey Jordan.
Football basketball baseball are all team sports. Highlighing team success doesn't mean mean anything in terms of individuals talent. Jeter has more world series than arod but he ain't better than arod. Yes Peyton played with Marvin and Reggie but he made them better I just gave you the fact that Indy lose Peyton for a season and the following season with the same team minus Peyton won one game. While Tom went down and they won 11 games and the next year won 10 with Tom. We can't overlook the cheating either. But there are more talented QBs than Tom and Peyton. I don't think Tom Brady is the goat NFL player or QB. As a matter of fact I ask people this question if you had an all time draft of all players to play in the NFL and you had the number one pick who would you pick if you don't pick tom then he isn't the goat or best at his position in your opinion.
seriously wtf goin on in this thread bro
