Ironically suits did try to load manage MJ out of games when he got injured in his 2nd season but he said fukk that came back earlier than they wanted and managed to sneack the Bulls in the playoffs.
Facts: Load management was NOT an organizational practice in MJs era, period.

Facts: Folks in here KNOW it’s organizations and analytics geeks in their offices pushing load management in THIS era yet they will still ā€œblame the players.ā€


Looking at who these fools are giving attention to IN HERE is proof positive that nba fans are dumb asses, more interested in living out and carrying their same brand of messageboard or social media routines of attacking players than speaking with any sliver of nuance.

Facts: who knew early MJ was a nutcase. I actually sided with the Bulls management wanting him to slow down coming off that gruesome broken foot but they were, like all of us AT THAT TIME, learning something about young MJ. Dude is the supreme outlier. You used a broken foot MJ suffered to talk about load management. :dahell:

Most "load management" is driven by teams for health precautions or tanking reasons. This idea that player's aren't playing because they're "soft" is almost completely made up.
These fukk boys don’t want to hear it. Players are the low hanging fruit and they will mimic cacs in shyting on young Black men.

if that is the case then dress and at least give me 10 min. In football a breh like mbappe can be fit and not playing but there coudl be 10 min left and he comes in to get a goal or something.

nah but these dudes be fully healthy in street clothes , nah nikka you dress and give me 10 min at least

buh buh my stats

Mbappe can't be the best example you have.
Commentary about his lack of defensive effort has been pretty loud for some time now

He could just as well be folded into this
"lazy " mythology if one wanted to carry it like that

it was an example breh, if you're fit you still dress and can be brought on a sub later on.

All I was saying was someone whose "load managed" can still dress and if needed can give 10-15 minutes

It's like a baseball player who gets the day off but still comes into to pinch hit in the 8th or something

a nikka in the nba just sits down in an expensive outfit and laughs and giggles

Next question, Kobe or Bron? Set the streets on fire :lolbron:

A Bron and Kobe question is definitely on the menu. Probably Kobe's death and how it impacted him. What does he think of Bron being another. Who does he see as the face of the league going forward. Dream team question. Buy a franchise again. What's your relationship with Chamillionaire. Etc.

There are so many things I’d love to hear MJ talk about… load management isn’t on that list. I don’t like load management. I also understand why it’s a thing with certain players. The game is totally different now. MJ’s counterexample to load management was the flu game. A Finals game. What are we doing here? Stop wasting these sitdowns.

And it wasn’t that long ago Haliburton went out for a G7 with a gimpy leg and tore his Achilles. So I don’t get why this is being discussed.

When my goat speaks, I listen.


No one is built like Mike anymore. He actually cared about the fans who paid hard earned money to come watch him play. Today’s players do not give a damn about the father who had to bust his ass for a ticket to take his son to the game.
You’ll still have fools that will have an issue with this because they NEED this to be the bestest era ever. Imagine defending pampered multi millionaires for not doing their jobs.

Mike is the most revered athlete of all time and yet he worked the hardest out of anyone until he retired. Played all 82 9 times and a minimum of 80 like 3 others times. Love him or hate him anyone that doesn’t respect the commitment is a clown. Straight up.

55 players played all 82 in 1990. 11 last year.

Jordan won't even say a word. :mjlol:

He will just respond like this:

They need to get his story on how he fell in love with Lou Pickles Jeans. :mjcry: @Heretic

Who is this cabal of players that you are quoting? Youre exaggerating just like sport cacs. :camby:
