Shannon Sharpe has been a huge proponent of the notion that Lebron James is the NBA GOAT (Greatest of All Time). It has been changing over the years with Shannon as a few years back he can be seen and heard that it was MJ.
Here in this video we can witness Shannon be schooled by players such as Allen Iverson and Ron Artest who played with Jordan, James and Kobe as well. Even Mark Jackson chimes in, Jamal Crawford and an unusual suspect at the end.

Jordan is the bar of any sport they’ll always say he’s the Jordan of…
Facts. You know, we live in the age of alternative facts. The onus is upon the people who grew up on greatness, and saw it live to squash all of this recency bias going down these days.
Well as somebody that watch MJ and LBJ since their debut in the league. MJ is the G.O.A.T
@@madblkmanonbullshit7765 As someone who watch Bill Russell to LeBron James, there is no GOAT because you can’t compare players who played in different eras. When will this stupid comparison of players who never played against each other end? The MT Rushmore argument is ridiculous as well. Jordan said this himself .Different rules, training, equipment and social issues makes it impossible to definitely say that one player is better than another. I am a old head and this constant worshiping of Jordan is past ridiculous. These same people were saying the same thing about the late Kobe Bryant after he won his fifth ring. Jordan fanboys and sycophants came out with their jump man poms poms trying to diminish the accomplishments of another great player who passed a milestone. I am not a fan of any particular player, I have enjoyed watching all of the greats. LeBron James has exceeded all expectations coming straight out of high school and the shade thrown at this man hints in pettiness, envy and jealousy.It can’t be nothing else. He’s not perfect but give me a break.
@@TheAutumnWind_RN4L bill Russell the goat. Robert horry better than MJ. He got 7 😂 clown.

Mark said, "we beat him up and it was ignored." With the new NO defense style of play, MJ could average whatever he wants.

Mike would average 55 a game easy.
@@TSCOTT-oz5vy 🏀👍🏽
You don't have to add the 3 ball for MJ to get to 40. He averaged 37. He'd be going to the line even more. Probably 20 times a game! You know MJ will add the 3 ball. I feel bad for Shannon, early signs of CTE.
@@tatertots5625 🏀👍🏽
THIS!!! That's what today's casual fan doesn't understand about the game. EVERYBODY can score easy in today's NBA because you can't make contact with players like you could years ago. When you have to compete for position against an arm, or a knee at your back or slapping the hand, an elbow in your rib cage...it all wears you down over the course of a game. Players literally run right to the rim with no effort at all. And they call today's players better than those of the past?
Mark Jackson...SAY IT AGAIN FOR THE BACK OF THE ROOM BRO!🤣🤣
Jordan averaged 37 a game in the 86-87 season. Why does Jordan need the 3 ball to average 40 if he was playing now Mr. Sharpe? Jordan's midrange was deadly. His first step, devastated opponents. People forget, that later on in his career Jordan was a proficient 3 point shooter. He could average 50 in today's game if that's what he wanted to do, and no one could stop him.
He doesn't need the 3 ball. They were not playing off of Jordan begging him to shoot the 3. He felt it took it out of attack made.
Ask yourself this Mr. Ignorant.... If Jordan was so great at scoring why did he need an All Star to get out of the 1st round? Jordan never won a Playoff series until he had Pippen, but Pippen has gone to 2 WCF without him. Jordan has never won anything without Pippen except for the Rookie of the Year award. He and Kobe both had a combined 13 coaches and only found success with the great shrink Phil Jackson. You trying to tell me that they are better players than LeBron? FUK OFF!!!!! LeBron is the Greatest Player ever.... Facts!!! Look at his coaches... He has had 7 coaches and has taken 5 to the Finals with 3 being Rookie Head Coaches. LeBron has also taken all of the Franchises he's played for to the Championship. Jordan has playe for 2 Franchises and was a stain in Washington. In LeBrons' 17th season he took LA to the Finals and won. Year 15 Jordan was a muppett in the league and made the All Star game with numbers far less than LeBron in his Rookie year but still made the All Star team. LeBron is the only player in the Most Competitive Era to never miss the Finals in his PRIME!!

Its getting in the "if" area, as LeBron fans so much love...well, regarding that, my "if" is that if Jordan played in todays era, he would improve his 3s shot, in such a way he would be one of the best 3 pointers out there...but yeah, he wouldnt need it, he would destroy every defence, they would only get the chance of throwing him to the free throws, where is not even an "if", since he was already so great at it in his days...even better when the games were on the line...
1991-93, 38% playoffs, 42% nba finals. Every time MJ shot 1.9 threes per game, he shot 35% or up.
could Jordan average 40 or more points today? well, it depends. A lot of elite scorers could do that. The real question ain't that. The real question is if jordan could average that amount of ppg in a winning culture, playing for a contending franchise, and the answer is no. Could jordan average 40 ppg, maybe more, yes? but he wont be winning any championship. He would be fighting for the 7th or 8th seed. This same reasoning applies to a lot of scorers including Kobe, Harden, Lebron, Durant, and many others.
The year Jordan averaged 37ppg, he only hade 12 3pointers for that whole season! If he could do that back then, where there was tough defense and actual rim protectors, he could easily average 40ppg in todays cupcake league.
Lol Who could check him in a league that doesn't play Defense.
That’s because he was a terrible three point shooter, still holds the record for the least 3 pointers made in a contest
Does that logic also apply to SHaq? I like everyone will shoot a better percentage than they did when they played.
@@Wgz945 did somebody tell you that, MJ was actually a pretty decent 3 point shooter. Its just smarter to shoot a higher percentage shot and that's what he did most of the time. That's why he won so much
@@blinblinthing He shot very well in comparison to his 3pt shooting peers of those times and some people don't hold up to that scrutiny today in a time when the 3ball is a focus. MJ clearly did not emphasize that shot.. The shot he did emphasize like the midrange, however, are yet to be matched for his volume.
MJ: drops 63 without a single 3.
Modern era fans: how can MJ get 40 without shooting the 3?
Dude 63>40
@@joeagcaoili4633 that his whole point. No 3s needed
@@malnorfleet4925 RIGHT??? Kareem didn't use 3s to score 38387!! Nor did Karl Malone, Wilt Chamberlain, etc, etc....
LeSelfishOne not even close to Jordan, Kareem, Wilt or Kobe. Overall play, does come close to Jordan, Russell, Kobe or Wilt.
"Jordan would average whatever Jordan wanted to average" - 100% , and... hey #ShayShay , what do you mean "...what about the 3?!" , Jordan BENN HAD THE 3! and 33% 2 to 3 pg avg. Not to mention he didn't and still wouldn't need the 3 to average 45; but if he keaned in to the modern game and taking 5 to 10 3's per game, he potentially averages 55-65 ppg ; P.S. if anyone needs to be refreshed, Kobe , matched up against James plenty of times and did just fine on both sides of the ball, so, Jordan... is going to be a juggernaut and beast , whether 2000 rookie year or 2010 rookie years. MJ as a Rookie through his Prime, would also have more longevity due to the game and the switch towards projecting the offense & contact. So from 12 seasons to 18 or 20 maybe a couple more?
Why the heck would MJ need a 3pt shot in today's nba when the lane is always open and no defensive centers waiting inside?!?
Agreed. Imagine the number of fouls MJ will get. It's going to be And1 all day long. With a career free throw percentage of 84%, a 45ppg. average isn't a far-fetched thought.
That exactly. If he played in today's game, like Mark Jackson said, he would average what he wanted to; it would be utter destruction. No 3s needed.
I know that's right
Mike didn’t ‘need’ a 3pt because he already had it. Lead the ACC in 3 point shooting year before he joined the NBA and for damn sure that competitive animal would adapt his scoring methods to whatever or whoever he perceived to be competition to him… personally I think a prime Jordan in this era figures out how to lock down and subdue 3pt slingers and he’s right up there with them if not leading. They don’t want to hear it, but they must not have been paying attention to what kind of animal he was. I don’t think he would need a 3pt shot either, but if anyone even whispered that his 3ball was weak… oh man, we all know how that would end… yep, on RUclips along with all the other stories of when Jordan destroyed whoever for saying whatever.
The league would have to adjust to mj not curry
Iverson 6 times to Shannon:
in today’s nba that’s 40 easy
Shannon lost his dam mind. Lebron still doesn't even come close to MJ even with with a longer career. Even when he breaks Kareem record. It just means he played longer to reach it. Now imagine Jordan playing 20 years and never retiring.
Mike is an entire HOF career above LeBron.
💯
Jordan’s competition is dog poop
Dey r both great players. Who would u say had easier competitors?
@@chemicalflame24 that sounds like a question a LeBron fan would ask.
Todays NBA is honestly hard to watch. It’s not that defense is worse. It’s rule changes, too many 1 & done’s who haven’t truly learned the game and everyone wanting to be point guards now to where even the bigs want to stand out on 3 line. Which opens up the court so much is almost impossible to defend anything. Especially when you can’t even touch someone because of rules. So everyone’s putting 50 up. Scores are in the 120’s-140’s consistently. It’s absurd
Damn good point brother. Please sub. I appreciate knowledgable viewers.
@@TheNBAGoat vice versa 😉 even if you never listen lol (music) I need it more than you. Just did
well said!!!
I tried to tell this LeBron fanatic this the other day. He was trying to tell me back when Jordan played they couldn't play zone defense so it was easier for him to get to the lane. Wrong! Teams only play zone defense 2-4% of the time now and everyone stands around on the perimeter waiting to shoot the 3 ball. This makes it easier to get to the lane. There's no 7 footer waiting at the rim to contest. When Mike played he had to beat 2-3 defenders to get to the rim and then dunk on a 7 footer or make an acrobatic. Layup.
@Central Texan ONB it doesn't help that most of the stars seldom stay put more than 3 yrs or so. IMO
The game was way more physical when Jordan played. The dudes can’t even get touched nowadays.
Agree 100% man. This game today is not as entertaining to me as it was back even in 2000s and especially 90s tough ball. Please sub the channel, it would help me and its nice to have knowledgable people commenting.
Million dollar investments, star players get hurt, that hurts ratings and ticket sales, of course they not letting players body slam and hit ppl
Asking people who's goat and expecting them to say Lebron ha ha ha
Scoring 40ppg doesn’t make anyone the GOAT because there’s more to basketball than scoring.
Btw….Jordan, LeBron, Shaq, Hakeem, Wilt, Duncan and countless others could average 40ppg but the most efficient and effective 40ppg would be from Wilt or Shaw who’d muscle their way to the paint for high percentage du, layups, and short jump shots…or Kareem with the skyhook in the paint.
@Tom Smith you do have to question their eye sight and brain for delusional thou
Mrs Shannon Sharp James you’re the only one that thinks James is at the top in my opinion he’s not even in the top 10-15 you’re asking these ex players who’s the best is hoping that they say James when are you going to wake and realize he doesn’t even care for you you’re one of the biggest 🤡 on tv along with SAS 🤡👎🏾
u have the best comment dude,..👍
@@positivelangbai...4482 cmon man my comment kills this one. 🤣😂🤣🍾🥂🥂💨
The game is TOTALLY different today. When MJ played, traveling was NOT allowed!!! You give MJ the ability to take 4 steps after picking up his dribble, and EVERYONE who puts themselves in front of him dies. EVERYONE.
Thats a good point. So many step layups these days especially for James. We have seen the videos.
Excellent point. They let Harden travel to 36ppg🤣🤣🤣
Bruuuuuuh 🤝🏾🤣
Plus he would get fouled on a lot of those and get a ton of and ones.
For a guy who is a LeBron fanatic Jordan sure lives rent free in his head.
It makes sense. Jordan lives rent free in the heads of all Lebron fanatics because they hate the fact that an overwhelming majority of people have MJ over their hero LBJ
Same with Jordan Fanatics the first person they mention is LBJ so it's moot point lol.

@@andrewgrant7846 and wit jordan post game do u think he will get dat off on better n more evolved players lik the Greek or embid?
Jordan would not be flagrant fouled several times a game. Also he would have no hand checking to slow him down. He would also have that circle under the basket which would be called blocking if defensive player was under there. Finally he already has the most lethal midrange to extend slightly and turn into 3 point shot. Jordan has such large hands that controlled the ball so well I have no doubt he could shoot the 3 to improve the scoring. Think that even guys like Larry bird never practiced the 3. Players didn’t practice that and didn’t have so much luxury traveling in private planes then
Flagrant fouled every possession? You clearly didn’t watch him play, that was one series against the Pistons, where he whined and had rules changed. They didn’t practice back then? You just saying anything now
They seem to forget Larry Bird he was a Marksman when it came to shooting wherever he would shoot
on the floor.Don't forget he could
shoot left handed with know problem.
Shannon needs to give it up it's no comparison
Agreed
The thing most ppl don’t talk about is mj and Kobe both sacrificed scoring totals to play within the triangle and make the team better as a whole because no matter how great a player is he needs help and a more balanced offense. Kobe did that for most of his early career and then again when pau came to la. Mj did it starting in 90 which is when the bulls became unstoppable. Bron bron never sacrificed anything, he had the ball handed to him and told to do what he wants.
That's a good point. MJ played in the triangle offense which limits your creativity. Playing in todays NBA, where he can iso and play one on one whenever he wants, he'd be tearing up every team.
@@buddhamaster322 I agree. He was insane before Phil and the triangle but he couldn’t do it alone. A team is always more dangerous than a single player unless it’s wilt or Kobe on a hot streak lol
Great take @Mark a!
They literally shot half the teams shots, and Kobe has the most misses in NBA history, if that’s sacrifice I would hate to play with them when they decided to be aggressive
@@Wgz945 I see you listen to social media and RUclips but do little to no research and have no ideas of your own.
Mad respect for Mark Jackson, he had the most experienced with MJ!!!
I like what Mark told Shannon. I'm not here to argue I'm here to testify that Michael Jeffrey Jordan would average whatever he wanted to average and Shannon still wants to argue. The truth hurts don't it.

@@TheNBAGoat you got it brother, glad to help :)
@@TheNBAGoat countless players could average 40ppg but it’ll likely result in disrupting the team’s chemistry because that’s a heck of a lotta ball hogging and shot attempts.
The results would like be in the lottery or 1st round playoff exit like Jordan when he averaged 37ppg in the 1986-1987 season.
So it’s reply a pointless discussion
As open as the lane is now, Jordan would average 20 points a game just on dunks.
Yeah right he would. Damn he would dunk all over everybody.
It would be an open lane cause all the players would be in amazement like 😮😮😮😮😮…and his team would be like 🫵🏾😂🫵🏾😂🫵🏾😂🫵🏾😂 and he flies over everyone

@@brandone.5106 don't disagree but you were forced into man 2 man. Help defense was illegal and zone was illegal.
Rick Ross’s explanation of his top 5 is a perfect example of “The GOAT” is a generational title. I got MJ too tho😁
Coaches are usually more level-headed when it comes to evaluating players. If Mark Jackson, who played against MJ and coached against the high scorers of this generation, says MJ could average 40 in this era, then he definitely could average 40 in this era.
If he's being that level-headed, he would have explained his stance instead of backing out on it. Also, hero ball is dead. He wouldn't be able to jack up a ton of shots. He would have to share the rock.
Bose, MJ career avg fga 22.9
LBJ career avg fga 19.7

Help me understand something, why would you ask a football player when all the NBA talent is telling you who the greatest of all time was and still is.
I honestly believe Shannon is a puppet to promote false media.
They can leave the Rick Ross interview off.

Something many don't know is that mj led the league in 3's when he was in college.
Rick Ross should've left Barkley on the sideline.
No way is LBJ #2....Kareem is far better than Bron and Kobe should be ahead of James too but Jordan is by far the G.O.A.T. and it's not even debatable.
Lebron isnt even in the top 10. Top ten in random order, Jordan, Bird, Magic, Russell, Chamberland. Kareem, Kobe, Duncan, Shaq, Hakeem.
@Dave Langer How can you have Bird ahead of Kareem and Kobe??
They both won more and have more individual accolades than Bird?
If it's just your personal list that's fine but there's no way based on the stats you can put him ahead of either of them.
@@soldierviejo8224 Did you notice where I said in random order? Also Bird is better than Kobe and its not even close. Kareem is better than Bird. If I had to list my top 5, it would be something like Jordan. Russel, Kareem, Magic then Bird. I am going to guess you never saw Bird play in his day.

Why would Jordan have to add a three ball Shannon go.h
You don't see it you need your eyes checked. No defense in this era everything would be worse. You can't touch MJ and with his ability, agility, quick first step stop it Shannon
Jordan averaged 37 PPG one year when they actually played D and that was without taking a ton of threes. Jordan could easily get that now and the way they fall fails to go the line at least 10 more times per game. Short shout about 85% from the line so that could be 45 points per game easily
NBA players know the game _best_ . its thier job!!
in 2019 there was an anonymous player poll of "Who is the GOAT" . all nba players were guaranteed anonymity because:
1. all players sign non disclosure agreements on what they are allowed and not allowed to say in public. this incudes who they really think is the actual GOAT...etc
2. If they were close friends with a GOAT candidate and didnt pick them they couldnt be accused of betrayal because nobody would ever know
WHO IS GOAT (according to all the NBA players themselves)
JORDAN (73% of all players votes)
LeBRON (11% of all players voted for him)
KOBE (10.6 % of all NBA players chose him)
KAREEM-ABDUL JABBAR (1.7% of all NBA players chose him)
MAGIC JOHNSON, ALLEN IVERSON, KEVIN DURANT (they all got 1 % of the vote each)
Very good comment brother. Thabk You and Im aware on the vote. Please sub, I appreciate informed and knowlegable viewers.
Who needs the three when you can go to the line 20-25 times a game? Would MJ learn the three as a consistent weapon? Yes. Would he never miss at 15 feet or less (or be fouled)?…pretty much. Would he average AT LEAST 40? Of course. LeBron came into the league at what age? MJ came in at what age? Jordan left for most of two seasons and after his second retirement stayed out for a few seasons. Would Jordan have the most points in history? Probably.
You can't just say he would learn the 3-pointer. LOL. Jordan was a below average 3-point shooter in his day.

Shannon's mind every time these guys answered his question.... "Can we cut to commercial?"
One will declared best all-around/most skilled ever (though I think that should be bird). The other will remain goat (most impact/team accomplishments, 6-0)
The two are simply the biggest marketing tools the nba ever had, and the league would surely milk it for what it's worth. Not unlike bird-magic, who actually saved the league in the first place
3's made in the NBA
Lebron 2281
MJ 581
Kareem 1
Goat debate ended! Kareem held the scoring title for almost 40 years scoring nothing, but 2's. Think about that. Brook Lopez made 791. Imagine if Kareem hit as many 3's as Brook Lopez
The Game was way more physical in Jordans era so in today's game he could most definitely average 40 plus.
Yes I think so too. Many young players dont understand it. They are so use to todays lighter rules where you almost cant touch them.
I think LeShannon was hurt that Rick Ross said Jordan was the goat he thought going by officer Roberts raps he was going to say LeBron. 😂
SHANNON was real soft in his response to the panel, where was all that lebron-groupie energy he gives SKIP... dont talk scared now!💯
In Shannon's mind the GOAT has a losing record in the playoffs, has a 22-33 record in the finals, has only played in all 82 games once, shoots 73.5% free throws, quits on his team in key moments and got lit up by a role player in the finals. That is the GOAT? We clearly have very different definitions of what the greatest is.
All those look true and it seems Sharpe sold his ass to Bron...
Shannon tasted LJ's sweat
Shannon's "What!?" when Rick Ross said Barkley. Lololol
Shannon Blunt.
“And 1” is MJ’s three point shot.
What Shannon doesn’t understand is that “score by going to the free throw line” can create far more damage than shooting 3 because you score while you putting your defender into foul trouble at the same time.
It was so often to see MJ end up 20+ Free throw attempt during his 37 average points/per game season. That means there were 10+ foul to the opposite defenders who try to guard Jordan which will result 2 foul out.
This would give the other team pressure not to guard Jordan too closely to avoid the foul out.
3 points shooters would never give defenders pressure like this because defenders would just put their hand up when the shooters shoot.
Unlike MJ, he mostly would attack the paint and the defenders either end up an ugly “And 1” or step away and let him score to avoid foul out.
Interesting and true.
Rock Ross started out sounding smart and when he got to three , he went goofy. Lol
Knick fan here! Jordan would absolutely avergare 45 to 50 a game, no questions, next!
I think so too. He would develop his game to destroy todays players. He would adjust.
Kareem Abdul Jabar was the greatest basketball player in the history of basketball without exception beginning in highschool, college and the NBA!
Yeah I don't agree. I'm planning a Jabbar video soon and educate myself on him more but no way he better than MJ
Wilt
The GOAT conversation is a hard one to nail down because what is the criteria- Chips, Most points scored, Most MVP’s what? All the categories are scattered over 2 or 3 players so how do we say 1 player?..
Shannon Sharpe's new shirt:
🙂
I'm with ⬆️ stupid
Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT. He would send all those dudes to the hospital if he wanted to. There were games where Wilt had 25 blocks, in a single game. Without even modern nutrition, shoes, training/practice. He carried the league on his shoulders in a similar way to how Andre the Giant carried wrestling. They had to change the rules of basketball to nerf his greatness. They were like "this is unfair let's make some rule changes, this dude is just dominating everybody". He use to dunk from the free throw line for his free throws.
Say It louder.
Shannon just won't let it go
The fact that they're still even comparing MJ to a lot of these players of today solidifies his goat status. If Jordan wasn't as great as he was then why bring him up all of the time.
True 100%
Sharpe is an expert on football.
I don't give a damn about his basketball takes!
True
Bill Russell, Jordan, Scottie Pip, Kareem, Wit Chamberlain, Duncan, Magic, Kobe, Steph, LeBron my GOAT list
Jordan, Lebron, Kareem, Dr. J and Shaq. Honorable mention goes to Dirk, AI, Wilt and Duncan.
1. Michael Jordan
2. Kobe Bryant
3. Magic Johnson
4. Larry Bird
5. Kareem Abdul Jabbar
To see a grown man hold back tears is just sad.
Doubting your majesty while wearing his shoes .
EXACTLY !!! Jordan logo on the jersey too
Mark Jackson said it best! Whatever he wanted to avg.😂😂😂
Yeah Mark has a good take on thing usually
"My City" I live in Miami
Ain't never not once heard anyone ref to Miami as Rick Ross city.
Mr. 305
Kimbo Slice
D-Wade
Dan Marino
Gloria Estefan
Even fictitious characters like Tony Montana
But Rick Ross. Heck no.
People. Jordan highlights from the 80’s are futuristic. Let that sink in
Mike GOAT debate over. Bron entered league at 18, Jordan's era forced them to college 3 years so age 21 is when they got to play. Jordan took nearly 2 full years off to play baseball and retired 3 years before returning as a Wizard's player. That's SEVEN full years Bron has playing that Jordan didn't. Scoring title would be Jordan's no doubt had Mike played those missing years!
Also it would never happen if it was MJ or even Kobe to beat that record and LOSE the game...
he averaged 37 a game without a 3 ball and with how lax the defense is today, MJ would easily kill the midrange to 40.
100% agreed
They renamed the MVP award The Michael Jordan Award!! End of discussion!!!
Watching Luka Doncic is like watching Jordan in slow motion, he plays the same way and he just scored 60-21-10 in this era. Jordan now would be like Luka now plus 20-30%, so 50 points a game would be easy.
Thats an interesting point. I have to look at Lukas game a little more.
@@TheNBAGoat Wilt would also absolutely destroy in this era.
Bron went to Miami to win rings. MJ comes to Miami and he sees his number retired in the heats area. Think about that. They retired MJs number in Miami
MJ the GOAT, but Wilt and DR J won't no Joke either in their Prime, I'm starting to think that Shannon in love with LeBron on the DL 😍 showing up at games to fight other players for his man lol
Hahaha. Good one.
Mark said MJ arsenal was nasty in human terms* Name a player as gifted as Jordan on both ends of the court my friends*
I can't believe this is still a real argument. They had to beat him up to slow him down. He'd have more freedom to drive with no hand checks he'd dance on everyone. Adding in a 3 ball wouldn't be reinventing.
Jordan averaged 37 when the average score was 98 points. 98 POINTS. TODAY??? BRUH.
Killed it wit Rick Ross credibility dead lmao
Rick ross even got him right lol
Lebron is PHYSICALLY built for the 70s-90s era. Skill level is also there. But MENTALLY... he'd get eaten alive.
Ross ain't no wtf he was talm bout 😂 😂😂
Listen to NBA Allstars and Hall of famers and NBA coaches 80% say Mike is GOAT. Just by the eye test. M.J. best offensive player , best defensive player for years after year. The eye test. Yep it's Mike
This dude Shannon is a Lebron Cheerleader. When they said Jordan try to flip it
With the defensive 3 seconds in the lane rule, Jordan would have 20 layups / dunks per game to get 40.
You wouldn't want Jordan shooting 3's because with his work ethic and fire he would hit 10 a night. Jordan would score at will in this game. Bird, Magic, Isiah Thomas same thing. You can argue all you want the new gen is bigger,faster, better trained blah blah blah. Maybe true but its the size of the heart, team pride and love of the sport that made the older dudes so great. Nowadays bench warmers are making 15 mil a year its crazy.
Micheal Jordan would truly be bored in today's game, seriously. He would score the easiest 40 pts per game you've ever seen...
My man said "#3 is....Barkley"!! 😶...🤣
