Back when they used to shoot a lot of commercials, Jordan's security team would wait for him in his trailer while he was on set. A woman named Linda cooked Michael's meals, and he loved cinnamon rolls. She'd bake a tray and bring it to him. When it came time to film, he'd see the guards eyeing the cinnamon rolls and he'd walk over and spit on each one, to make sure nobody took his food.

I really can't take anything Michael Jordan says about basketball seriously.

He obviously doesn't know shyt about today's players or he wouldn't be constantly associated with the worst teams in the league.

Indivudual knowledge of the game and being able to put together a team doesnt mean a player can be guaranteed to succeed at either. You have plenty of great players who cant coach a team and plenty of great coaches who couldn't cut it as a player. I wouldnt question jordans knowledge of the game from a player standpoint but he's obviously not a g.m.

I'm not talking about coaching. I'm talking about thinking Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison could ball. That's about evaluating talent and he's proved to be the worst in the sport when it comes to that.

In case anyone in the inner circle forgets who's in charge, they only have to recall the code names given to them by the private security team assigned to overseas trips. Estee is Venom. George is Butler. Yvette is Harmony. Jordan is called Yahweh -- a Hebrew word for God.

Great read.
I can't believe it's been 20 years since I first saw him play live (Bulls vs Bullets in Landover, MD). He dropped 36 pts in the 1st half (the LaBradford Smith game).
shyt makes me feel old too :beli:

There's a big difference in trying to decide who is gonna be good in the NBA coming out of college or high school and comparing players who he's been watchin play in the league for years.

The announcers gush about LeBron, mentioning him in the same sentence with Jordan, who hears every word. Those words have an effect on him. He stares at the TV and points out a flaw in LeBron's game.

"I study him," he says.

"When LeBron goes right, he usually drives; when he goes left, he usually shoots a jumper. It has to do with his mechanics and how he loads the ball for release. "So if I have to guard him," Jordan says, "I'm gonna push him left so nine times out of 10, he's gonna shoot a jump shot. If he goes right, he's going to the hole and I can't stop him. So I ain't letting him go right."

:ohhh: Amazing
