Jordan has a stellar resume everyone knows that, but to say he is far superior than most great ones is far fetched. I dont think you can compare him to Kobe. And, Kobe isnt done yet. Also, to say they didnt have a dominant big man isn't true. They had one of the best defensive and rebounde player in the league, who if im not mistaken is going to be inducted into the hall of fame this year, Dennis Rodman. Jordans nickname was also never the goat that was Earl Manigualt, famous playground baller.

Jordan is amazing! Lol...

I hope the celts comback...

Being Marketable doesn't necessarily mean Player A is better then Player B. What Jordan accomplished far out ways what Kobe and Magic Johnson have accomplished. To Say Kobe is as clutch as Michael is nuts he is 28% in clutch situation which is average he also only has 1 buzzer beater in the playoff's(Which Btw they went on to lose that series). When people think of Michael you instantly have memories such as the SHOT to win the series in Cleveland or you think of the steal and shot that shattered the Utah Jazz (on route to win his sixth title in 8 years and was finals mvp all six times.)

Does Kobe or Magic have 10 scoring titles the answer is no... have they won the allstar MVP,Season MVP,Defensive player of the year and Scoring title all in one season? the Answer is no. Were they 6 for 6 in the NBA finals while dropping a whooping 41ppg on 50% shooting in one of the series? the answer is no. Have either one of them 3 peated twice and doing so without a dominant big man? the answer is no. This is not to say that i don't love Kobe or Magic because believe me there quite frankly truly amazing basketball players. But these are some of the reasons why Michael is truly untouchable and was simply an astonishing thing to watch. He had the offensive game and the defense to match it and most importantly he had the Swagger!


Anyways back to the playoffs.... anyone feel that Boston can come back in this series against the heat?

Good post regarding Jordan


I don't think they can come back 3-1, no. I hate the Heat/Mavs, so hope neither win but it looks like that might be the case, especially the way Mavs are playing right now. I'm still rooting for Chi, Rose is just too beastly. Need to nerf him in the next patch


Budman: Rodman wasn't around when Jordan got his first 3 rings. Rodman was great, but his great years were in Detroit

So I guess Bill Russell's accomplishments far out way Jordan since he won 11 championships no? mhm.

Also being 6 for 6 in the finals is impressive, but where are all the other seasons performances. We should also look at the bad years since you want to add Bryants performances in losing series.

Jordan's Bulls

84 lost 1rd
85 lost 1rd
86 lost 1rd
87 lost 2nd rd
88 lost ECF
89 lost ECF

Lets not even include Jordan's 2001-2003 seasons.

I think Miami eliminates Boston tomorrow. I got Miami vs Dallas in the finals. It's just looking like Miamis year. Can't stand Boston, gonna love seeing them get sent home.

Rings aren't everything when comparing a player..... if that was the case Robert Horry>Kobe. Not taking away from Bill Russell because we all know he was legendary. Jordan also didn't have the privilege of playing next to a top 10 player of all time like Magic and Kobe did in KAJ and Shaq. It took Jordan 7 years to win a chip is there a problem with that?Btw in 98 and 91 Jordan was the only allstar on his team.


Yeah i think its a wrap for the Celtics shame i guess rondo showed heart! Its up to the Bulls now to stop this heat team!
