A quick glance at these boards over the past handful of years (at least since I've joined), may make you believe that we have a relatively firm grip on the record, and aren't going to be relinquishing it anytime soon...
One of the things that bugs me about his deification is that nobody likes to talk about how Jordan never even got out of the second round until after all his rivals either aged out and/or were diluted by back-to-back expansion seasons. He never beat the Pistons until after expansion broke them up; he technically never did beat the Celtics, they just got old and faded away. We'll never know if he could have beaten the gd lakers before Cap retired, because he never got that far, but there's no reason to believe he could have.

There’s also the whole “Steve Kerr is so willing to let Draymond get away with stuff because MJ was physically abusive and a ***** to everyone in Chicago” thing that always gets pushed under the rug. I don’t think there’s any questioning how good of a player he was in his prime but there’s a reason Sir Charles is probably the most beloved guy of that era and not MJ, who is by almost every account a terrible person.

Also given how much the internet trolls Ohtani for the whole (probably) throwing his translator/best friend in front of the bullet gambling scandal thing, can you imagine how it would’ve gone if Twitter was around when MJ was at his absolute degenerate gambler peak?
Which begs the question, who do we think they would have gotten to take the fall for Jordan?
Hearing that music on ESPN is going to take some getting used to.

On the flip side, hearing that music on NBC last night was music to my ears!
No love for James Worthy?

Simmons said it was nice to watch the nba on NBC. He described it as a “love letter to the NBA/Basketball” a “celebration of the league” a nice reprieve from the TnT critical perspective
