I just want a MJ stan to come in here so I can neg him


Nikkas swear Jordan was a mythical creature and shyt. We had a 20 page thread about how bron would lose to MJ 1 on 1 like bron would not walk his ass down and get a lay up every play.

See game 1 of the 91 finals
I've seen it....did you see the whole series ?

Phil had to switch Pippen onto Magic after he killed Jordan

Yeah but what happened after that ...

Pippen guarded him for 2 halfs...the entire series....

There was a myth buster article on this somewhere

Out here in my damn drawls
Defenders bounce off Bron when they try to pressure him.



Lebron lowered his shoulder, got an angle to get Lance on his side like he was supposed to do

That wasn't a great defensive play, even with pressure

Ok? What makes you think he would have any trouble doing that or anything else?

Nobody is completely shutting down an elite offensive player

An elite defender wouldn't allow him to dictate the action all game tho

i feel LBJ might have cheapen us out of a crazy season.. it might have just been an insane pairing.

That's what I really wanted to happen too. But I think in LBJ's mind, in the end he was betting on Embiid/Simmons/Fultz to stay healthy and play great and on the Sixers to work well as a organization. If injuries or mismanagement screwed over the situation, then he goes into his late years with nothing.

On the other hand, in LA he can tap into all his other projects from the best locale while joining a team that has the space and allure to draw in proven players in addition to its own promising young players. Even if the young players don't work out, even if the proven stars get injured, he still puts himself and his family in a good position.

For purely basketball reasons I would have preferred Philly, but I get why he did what he did.


(Ultimate bet would have been Boston landing Kawhi with a Kyrie package and then LeBron forcing Cleveland into a trade for a Gordon Hayward package. :wow:)

bron being bron....:yeshrug:

dude is a true freak of nature

my take away from this is that i didnt see ONE ben simmons jumper....not one :francis:
father time is undefeated
bron is an all time great for sure
but people need to manage their expectations
turning 34 with over 16 years of deep playoff runs
i expect to see some slippage this year for sure

To even think MJ at 6'6 205 could check bron is laughable.

Bron would bulldoze this nikka out the fukking way. MJ can't even guard magic.
There's very few players that I think could consistently go off on MJ pause, probably just Kobe and Bron

Bron just added himself to that list in my opinion, his shooting and post game have greatly improved from when he was younger

But don't ever sell MJ short, he was a different type of nikka. There's only one Mike, he was more ruthless then anyone and had no heart when it came to how he treated others
