What is this trying to say?

Bird played against the toughest/best comp (most hof eliminated)?
Magic has the most playoff experience?
Bron take/will take the most amount of games (on average) to win a series?
Jordan takes the shortest?
Jordan has the highest series winning %?


Jordan is goat

Hall of Famers eliminated Does ESPN have to make a new stupid ass stat every week

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

Amazing how the convo shifts, the path taken to a final and the number of HOF eliminated dominates the conversation because the media force fed us this BS

And those of us who are easy to be conditioned are regurgitating the same BS in our regular convos and when we call into radio shows

It is stupid to penalize a guy for being born in a different era and it is stupid to want to minimize his accomplishments with newly created empty stats that no player has control over

 

[OC's finest]

The only stat that matters to me is jordan is 6 of 6 in finals while Lebrun is 2 of 5.


These nerd statisticians that ain't never seen jordan play a day in their life can find whatever obscure numbers they want...

You can't do that. That's bogus. Each time Jordan went to the finals they had the superior roster top to bottom. They were supposed to win. Miami shouldve won 4 though.

and nobody is a hall of famer while active. Projected HOFers LeBron knocked out at least 6.
