These nikkaz be going the length to discredit mj at any possible avenue, gangway, boulevard, throughfare etc.

Plus you know the people doing it never really saw mj play. The people doing this don't know wtf they missed and have no frame of reference for how offbrand they are with it too.


Anyway, to add on to and clear this up.
Kwame brown got caught in the headlights and lacked that thing that is either cultivated and flourishes. Or will come out to absolute failure when put under duress. If he never ramped and kwame brown never ramped because his background in playing ball was coddled and suppressed. That when he got to the pro level he was doomed to fail. He easily fits into the ideal convo in basketball of parochial versus public. Where any bball player who will succeed from a public school route will know and try to squelch and defeat the parochial/beaugouse style of basketball as an actual living thing.

Brown, never had that and most players that fail in bball. You can see they never grasped that. As far as mj, mj was the guy who is the goat of besting the parochial vs public argument and the misappropriated goat argument.
that is dually attached to how the second goat argument was created in the Boston media.

In that is how kwame brown failed as a player and most NBA busts fail as a player. As they fail to recognize that this exist and to be mentally prepared for executing without fail to defeat this.

As a spectator, as a kid. I picked up on this in organized play watching king go for the state title and failing before Cox figured out how to beat the parochial side. Which is also how I am familiar with how a big can easily be a bust or never make it out of college as well. Yet I would think anyone covering bball, to playing organized ball knows this exist and should by the pro level be acclimated to succeeding against these variables in organized play. Succeeding in those variables of organized play, are also Integrated in the goat argument. So mj drafting brown and knowing this tried to prepare brown for this. Yet brown wilted because of the generational gap and disconnect created purposefully by the low bball Iq NBA era. To disconnect players in organized play from recognizing these variables exist. When they are there and the key to actually succeeding against these ever present variables. The low bball IQ era mind and eye are not aware of.

The reason any and every bust exists in NBA history is an inability to ramp to defeat the parochial vs public school argument and style of play. Plus, every player should know this exists because the goat argument is misappropriated and then recreated using that framework of narcissism.

Kwame brown failed because he was not prepared for the GAME OF BASKETBALL.

there is a game being played that extends beyond hoops that is racial, class, stratum based. That if you never recognize how to beat that. You will never be wholly successful in bball let alone organized play. Kwame brown failed because he never recognized the full GAME OF BASKETBALL.
which Jordan is wrongly made a villain for. When Jordan is trying to prepare and ramp you to beat the GAME OF BASKETBALL.

That is what is missed in this whole deflection based narcissistic piece to defame Jordan.

Plus revise, and false re-vise what brown'a career ultimately was.

Brown failed because he did not know and was not adept at beating the game of basketball.

Luckily the league paid players so for his experience and his pedigree as a number one pick he was compensated. Yet and still brown never understood or tried to really beat or best the game of basketball.

Literally 2-7 could've been a better #1 pick than Kwame. Tyson, Pau, Jrich, Shane, Even Eddie had game

Kwame washed Tyson Chandler and Eddy Curry in workouts.

He was not properly developed and probably wasn’t ready and should have went to Florida. MJ destroyed his confidence. He also had injuries. He was a bust but he managed to have a decade plus career and was a rotational big and good low post defender.

that is not an awful draft class.

i agree though. kwame had a 13 year career, there have definitely been much bigger busts than him.

This been known brehs

(CBS) MINNEAPOLIS On March 30, Minnesota Timberwolves center Eddie Griffin was drunk and masturbating when he crashed his luxury SUV into a parked Suburban outside a store in Minneapolis, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday by the man whose Suburban was hit in the crash.

WCCO-TV obtained copies of 911 calls and store surveillance video of the incident, along with an accident report the police submitted to the state, reports WCCO-TV's Caroline Lowe.

Several of the 911 callers that night said Griffin was drunk. One witness said Griffin told him he was watching pornography in a DVD player mounted on the dashboard of his Cadillac Escalade SUV when he struck a Chevy Suburban parked on University Avenue Southeast.

The location where Griffin crashed is located a couple miles from the Target Center where Griffin had played with his team several hours earlier.

Abed Hassuneh, who is the brother of the victim, said Griffin told him, "That he was masturbating himself going down that street. That's how the accident happened because he was not paying attention. He's paying attention to that video and all of a sudden he's shoveled somebody's car on the top of the sidewalk."

Interim Minneapolis Police Chief Tim Dolan ordered an internal affairs investigation of the conduct of the two officers who responded to the scene, after WCCO-TV made Dolan aware of allegations about the incident.

Key questions are why Griffin wasn't tested for alcohol and why the officers drove him out of the city to his home in St. Paul. Griffin also received tickets for not having a license and inattentive driving.

Griffin's damaged SUV was towed to the Minneapolis impound lot.

Dolan told WCCO-TV he expects impartial policing. Dolan also said officers must get permission to leave the city.

"Obviously, if somebody is drunk and they are driving we want that dealt with by the police officers of Minneapolis," Dolan said.

In the video, Griffin can be heard pleading with witnesses to not call police saying, "I can't go to jail."

The video also shows Griffin admitting he is drunk and doesn't have a driver's license.

The video shows him struggling for minutes to put on his sweatshirt and offering to buy a car for the man who's SUV he crashed into in front of Santana Foods.

Griffin was not available for comment. When he was interviewed by reporters after the crash happened, he said he had dropped his cell phone as he drove.

The two officers involved in the incident, Daniel Anderson and Matthew Lindquist, have been with the Minneapolis Police Department since October 2001. The officers remain on duty pending the outcome of the internal investigation.
