Are you fucking kidding me? Why do you think they call him black Jesus? Other players even referred to him as black Jesus. Every time he played my home town I was at that game. He would spin in mid and dunk over other players
The reason why you don't know Jordan isn't the goat is because you said it yourself, you grew up in the 2000's and never watched him play. Plenty of ignorant people like yourself that believe this and continue to mock Jordan and say that flop lebron is the goat. He's the goat of a-lot of things but definitely not basketball. As everyone else in here has said, Jordan is by far the true 🐐 goat. If you don't believe me watch 3 full games with him and 3 of lebron at the same age , then you'll understand easily why.
I know it’s common sense/norms, but I live how the opposing team mates were worried. Especially the 2nd one; he just let the basketball hit his head and didn’t care.
THE facts are as follows. As a KOBE FAN WE kno MICHAEL JORDAN WAS KOBE'S IDOL. KOBE MIRRORED JORDAN closer than anyone else we ever seen yet in kobe bean Bryants own words Jordan is the GOAT. You gotta understand the players you see today WOULDN'T HAVE THOSE MOVES AND UPS if they didn't see mike doing it WHEN NOONE ELSE COULD COME CLOSE. DUDE IS 6-0 AND 10X scoring champion in same years also #1 defensive player night in and out LOL Dude built a shoe THAT BUILT NIKE LOL BASICALLY #1 shoe from that day til current! Your saying thats because he was basically compared today as a REGULAR ALL STAR TYPE PLAYER??? To me KOBE IS #2 Ever and MJ#1 and theres noone close to those two as far as mentality, leadership,clutch,skills,Free THROWS LOL the total package. Theres 4-5 guys afterwards that could follow them in order any way one likes best. BUT MICHAEL JORDAN would average 40+ TODAY AND THATS JUST RIDICULOUS. KOBE WAS UNBELIEVABLE AND I MISS HIM. Him and MJ are my idiols admittedly yet MJ was the 1st of his kind the type that every other great chases including Kobe as he said MANY TIMES HIMSELF. I LOVE EM BOTH BUT i gotta be fair and complete when assessing the two and slightly MJ. Theyll never be another MJ or Kobe thats one debate thats UNDENIABLE. This is my opinion RESPECTFULLY. LEBRON is a top 10 player all time hands down but playing til your 40 doesn't make you THE GOAT. LOSING MORE TIMES THEN U WIN DOESN'T MAKE YOU THE GOAT. AMASSING 20 YEARS OF POINTS AND LONGEVITY AWARDS DOESN'T MAKE YOU THE GOAT OR A TOP 5 PLAYER EVER IN MY HUMBLE OPINION and me and LeBron are close in age im 2 years younger and not bias i like the guy. Mj and Kobe didnt leave chasing city to city hoping ppl would help them win rings. No they built teams through good and the bad and WON THEIR RINGS THE HARD WAY. MJ AND KOBE enough said.
Who said he was? He never was. MJ will say Oscar is the GOAT. The reality is individually the GOAT is Wilt Chamberlain. Bill Russell is the GOAT of basketball.
If this was football EPL precisely, there'd be a backboard rule already cos of shaq; Players shouldn't hold the rim after dunk or it would be deemed a foul😂
dude weighs like 300 something and he is jump and pull on the rim so the force probably makes it like 600 pounds of pressure suddenly on this rim attached by glass defiantly not holding up
Its why I kept his Rookie Cards as the fact Shaq Was a 1once in a lifetime player of extreme ability to attract attention. His early adulthood was that of a Superman, even with the hype surrounding the latest Rookie Center in that 7'6 Wetuyyanbbe ( not sure his actual name ) having one of the best rookie seasons , do not compare to the level Shaq had on the world as a rookie. Shaq is a 10 rating and the French player in Spurs is a 7 compared to the attention they got US in to watch. Ive seen highlights of the French guy and only see 1 thing missing the French lacks , is his PHYSICAL PRESENSE of moving guys around in the POST.
