  • NBA All-Star game took place February 20th in Cleveland, Ohio. The contest honored the NBA’s 75 greatest players of all-time which included the likes of LeBron James, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan and more. Jordan received the largest ovation from the Cleveland crowd, ironically whom he defeated in the playoffs for many years as a member of the Chicago Bulls. Colin Cowherd reflects on the legacy of Michael Jordan and the NBA's 75th ceremony. Plus, Colin reacts to Michigan coach Juwan Howard taking a swipe at a Wisconsin coach in Michigans' loss to Badgers.

      So... Howard is in the handshake line and Gard "has no reason to grab his hand" ?? Gard was shocked Howard was so livid.. so was I. Horsecrap take. Gard was not an aggressor.. just looking to perform post game duties. Howard's 2nd incident .. had to be physically restrained during the Maryland game last year.. wanted to fight another coach. Howard is emotionally unsuited for the job.. and he'll be gone in the off season.

In his case, he's simply the best ever, even the numbers show it, and other guys are playing to get to #2. Don't cheapen your product when you're the clear leader.

      Micheal Jordan, excluding the 94-97 seasons, when the NBA moved the three point line to 22 feet, was a career 28% three point shooter. LeBron James is a career 34% three point shooter
      Micheal Jordan was a great defensive player, in an Era where you could handcheck. Playing defense is much easier when you can handcheck. For nearly 6'9 250 LeBron James' entire career he wasn't afforded the opportunity to handcheck.
      THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR..LEBRON JAMES IS THE GOAT!!!!!

Next he went back to cavaliers they already had Kyrie and traded for Love and signed vets to complete team. Then went to LA and they got AD that summer via trade and won the bubble championship. So to say that is not being genuine. Also The bulls drafted Paxson, Armstrong, and Grant they grew together and achieved greatness. Once pip became an all star the game was over. He wasn’t jumping around chasing rings that’s why LBJ isn’t the goat and also 6-0 in the finals. MJ embraced competition and adversity in his career it made him better.

      @@akilan it's always hypothetical arguments with you LeBron fans. You bring up nonsense comments and that can NEVER be answered. No one knows if Jordan would've left those Cavs teams if he was in LeBron's place after failing all the years, but MJ was also failing at the Bulls for SEVEN YEARS STRAIGHT and he stayed true to his team and turned them into a dynasty. So I don't think Jordan would've left the Cavs in your fantasy world because he's a competitor. LeBron just isn't built like Mike and Kobe.

    MJ is the GOAT to ever play the game of basketball.
    The work ethic, the hard work, the way he pushed his team-mates, the way he took against his match-up and his will power to win the game. I'm blessed as a child to see his greatness, even if you are not a Bulls fan, you admired and appreciated what he did.
    10 scoring titles, 5 MVP and 6 FMVP, never get to played a game 7 in Finals. Hands down the GOAT in basketball, for me he is even the GOAT of the athlete in the history of sports.

    The reason why MJ was so popular, he is a perfect player and when step on the court he means business. His passion for the game is amazing. He will carry his team to win specially in the crunch time. He stayed in one team to win his 6 titles and don't need to pick his teammates. Not like Lebron he will pick his teammates and kick his teammates that he does not like. He made Nike a billion product and made basketball an international game.

    what lebron fans won't acknowledge or can't understand is that Jordan's greatness transcends stats (which he also dominates). He was a force of nature on and off the floor. 22 years after retirement and he's still relevant. And when he walks into the any venue, he commands immediate and fixating attention. You can't quantify something like that. When the majority of living legends are in one roof, he still stood out far, far above the rest, and they all knew it.

When times got tough in crunch time with titles on the line, both have risen to the occasion, but Michael did so 100% of the time. That’s greatness. It’s mindset and leadership, not stats. It’s why Brady has 7 rings and Rodgers only 1.

    I think his icon status started with when he left NC. The shackles imposed by Dean Smith came off and the world stage of the ‘84 Olympics where nba all stars did not win a single game against his team. Then of course, he exploded onto the nba scene with the most spectacular aerobatics ever seen. In those early days he went to the hoop in unbelievable fashion time after time. His marketing showcased his charm and uniqueness. Yes, his work ethic and competitiveness showed through and fans loved it. He paid a high price physically to get to the first championship and people admired that. His loyalty to his coaches and teams were also admirable. Although it must be said that without his endorsement money maybe he would have considered another team (the Bulls would have paid up tho).

(Can’t help but think about the “both sides” argument). Colin Herd clearly had his thoughts in college coaches even before this incident and is taken this as an opportunity to espouse his thoughts on the college coach dichotomy. Keep it, man. Not now. If I instigated an incident with everyone who touch my arm and stood in front of me to get my attention, (person wants to talk to me), when in a HAND SHAKE LINE, I hope someone would sit me down afterwards and explain proper decorum and sports etiquette. You just got beat, don’t look to fight the other team. Get them next time. This happens in high school and junior high. It shouldn’t happen in college.
