Michael Jordan - The True Goat | Page 17

Noticed we didn't have a thread dedicated to the best player alive. A place to post videos and discuss the greatest ever. Last Dance, Space Jam, sneaker empire, mentoring Kobe, it's all fair game. What a trailblazer

MJ's 1998 Championship when Pippen had the bad back Scottie was shot Including: shooting 39% in the Conference Finals Shooting 41% in the NBA Finals In playoffs as a whole: 16.8ppg on 41.5%fg, 22.8% 3pt, 67.9% ft But GOAT got the job done & carried the team.

Let these nephews know!

Hopefully now the massive legion of "lebron fans" can stop using that idiotic "1st round" argument against Jordan.

First of all, lebron had missed the playoffs his first 2 seasons. Second of all, the complete trash ass teams he faced in the East in the 1st round are absolutely nothing to write home about. Imagine beating the likes of the 7-9 Bengals, 6-10 Jaguars, and 8-8 chargers every year in the wild card and bragging about it.

Jordan went into those first round games with drug dealers and crackheads for teammates against some of the best teams assembled, he still managed to hold his own

The videos of Lebron with his head down not playing defense and also complaining to the refs while his team plays 5 on 4 are embarrassing.

Jordan used to be terrifying in big moments. You knew he was getting the ball, and you knew he was hitting the shot. LeBron is not scary. Hes 50/50 on making the shot, and he may not even take it. Its hard to fear/respect a guy who is always flopping, crying, and being passive aggressive.
