Wilbon saying KD and Bron wouldn't dominate is stupid but why do nikkas think the only qualifer for athleticism is vertical and jumping high? MJ had hops, quickness, an elite first step and agility/body control, besides the obviouse difference in skills Dinwiddie don't have all that.

Do you dunk on ninjas like that Spencer:dahell:

Nique was doing similar things and came in before Jordan
No he wasn’t. Dominique had nowhere close to the body control, quickness, or finishing ability Jordan had. That’s what made Jordan look out of era.


Nique had vertical explosiveness in spades and was strong as hell though.

Yeah I was mainly talking about explosiveness at the rim.

@MischievousMonkey

I'm 2 years (maybe 20 months) older than my brother (RIP). But, you'd think I was 10 years older, the way he acted.

I was around 12, at the time.


Some kid, who lived down the street was messing with him.

My dad told me and we (my brother and me) both went to confront him

Now, I'm thinking, I'm about to whoop on this lil dude...let him popped off, I'm messing him up.

Was literally a block, a turn then three houses.

The kid sees me and my brother and immediately starts talking shyt.

I'm standing in between him and my brother--he never touches me. And I'm mugging his little ass.

:stopitslime:

But, he acts like I don't even exist.

Now, my little brother starts crying. It was a while ago, so I don't remember if I said anything to the kid.

But, I told my brother to go back home.

It was other kids out there, but, I was ready.

As my brother was walking home. He screams

:lolbron:"Oh, (@Easy-E's brother) you wanna bring brothers!?"

And snaps his finger.

Oh my momma, his brother comes out of the door and hops the patio and walks towards me and his brother smiling the whole time

:mjlit:

Dude looked EXACTLY like his brother and was atleast 6 foot tall

All I remember thinking is;

:francis: I'm glad my brother went home so he don't have to see me get my ass whooped

And he didn't run, he crept down that driveway:merchant:

But...


in the end, his brother grabbed him and took him inside :pachaha:nikka I was scared

:mjpls: Never heard about lil dude messing with my brother, again

:deadrose:

MJ had big hands which is why he could do all that acrobatic shyt in the air and he was crafty and unorthodox. Kyrie isn’t a freak athlete but he’s a great ball handler and acrobatic finisher because he has big hands. Other than that there’s guys on his level as an athlete in terms of running, jumping, changing directions. Just look at some historical draft combine archives and look at the vertical, lane shuttle, 3/4th court sprint...

I keep telling y’all Michael is a great athlete. The league today is littered with great athletes. Athleticism is not what made Michael the best. It was his athleticism combined with his hand size combined with his skillset as a ball handler, midrange shooter, post player, ability to finish either side of the glass with either hand, his competitive fire, and just being a smart and instinctual basketball player.

Against Mid 2000s
Game way more physical back in 03

Imagin prime jordan in this era

Will easily average 45 wallahi

Theres no big man in the paint lol


saying he’d average 45 is an exaggeration but the fact of the matter is you put MJ in this era he’s still the best and would rack up rings
