What does that have to do with anything? Even if we had pro sports teams, his comments would still make him look like a jerk. The UNI players don't have the luxury of packing their bags and taking their talents to South Beach in order to win a championship.
Um Jordan punched Steve Kerr, had plenty of gambling debts and plenty more of his share of issues. The best ever but he had PLENTY of off field issues. And Jordan had Pippen and Rodman, both all time great players. Those Bulls teams were loaded. The year Jordan left the Bulls they won 55 games and were one bad call away from the finals without him. If LeBron leave a Cleveland, they are one of the four worst teams in the league.
Almost getting to the finals is nice, but doesn't get you the ring... nor does losing in the finals-ask Jordan. Wait, he wouldn't know...better ask Lebron.
Being a winner on a court or field doesn't make you a winner in life. A rich loser is still a loser.....
Right, Pippen wouldn't have been as good without playing with Jordan. All-Star still but not an all time great. LeBron rarely makes others around him better. Jordan made others better because they knew he'd get in their face or take it to them if they didn't work hard. Jordan may not have been the best person to be around but he was a leader which Lebron is not.
Jordan's off court is well, well documented. He had plenty of issues. Michael Jordan until he got Scottie Pippen and Phil Jackson Did not win anything. He ran coaches off, and did not go far. The year Jordan retired they won 55 games and should've gone to the finals. That said, I think Jordan's Better than LeBron, but man we think Jordan never did everything wrong and did everything by himself. Scottie Pippen is an all time great and so is Rodman. It was a loaded team.
If LeBron didn't make guys better than why had he gone to give straight finals. That Cavs roster when irving was hurt was probably the worst NBA roster to ever make the finals. Jordan no rings without Pippen and Phil Jackson. When Jordan retired they won 55 games.
Have you watched the Eastern Conference play since LeBron entered the league? He had to leave Cleveland and team up with Wade and Bosh who were both already established players in the NBA to win a title.
Those Celtics teams were really good. Pierce, Allen and Garnett. All hall of famers. Those Pistons teams with billiups, Hamilton and Ben Wallace. Never has there been a 6 foot 8 wing that could shut down a 6 foot 3 electric guard( mvp rose). That's like Jordan guarding Allen iverson for a full series and shutting him down. Lebrons first finals the second best player on his team is mo willaims. The NBA always has had 5 great teams, 5 awful teams and everyone else is ok.
Jordan played with the best defender in Pippen, best rebounder ever in Rodman, best euro at the time in kukoc, and the best coach and hoot guy in Kerr. LeBron player with wade and bosh Wade was past his prime at that point and started to have knee issues and bosh wasn't the best pf when he played with LeBron.
Rodman didn't play with Bulls until the second 3-peat, in fact he was on the rival Pistons before and during the Bulls first 3-peat. Kukoc didn't come play until after Jordan retired the first time and after the first 3-peat. In fact, Steve Kerr wasn't a Bull for the first 3-peat either. He came along the year after Jordan retired the first time.
If you play by today's rules, the teams now would win. If you play by the rules of the eighties and nineties, the teams the. Would win. Those Bulls teams were just unbelievable though.
First of rodman was with the Spurs for 1 of the championships.. but for the first 3 peat the had horce grant who was no pushover a better pg (then Kerr) in bj.. And yes at the end of the day they had Scottie and Michael.. But to act like the Bulls weren't loaded, you know they where.. michael is a great player prolly the greatest of all time, but some of you act like he was untouchable, NIKE did a great job of promoting him as the goat to sell shoes..
