Bill Walton Calls Michael Jordan 'Basically Average'
Richard Mackson-USA TODAY Sports
While calling Wednesday night’s matchup between Oregon and USC, ESPN's Bill Walton made this comment about the greatest NBA player of all time...
quote:

“Michael, the guy was basically average in terms of size, strength, speed, jumping ability.”

I think Bill has been to one too many Grateful Dead shows.

I think MJ would be a star in today's game. I don't think Walton would do well.

I agree lsualum.

Maybe Walton was just "horsing" around with his comments.

This is terrible Larry. You play half the statement and call it a story.

I am sure if you heard the whole clip he would go on to say his mental toughness was what made him so great.

Compared to him and Kareem, Michael was short, ha ha.

Well....is it just me or does Walton appear to be quite long in the tooth?

I don't know why this would shock anyone. Walton was widely known to routinely drop acid.
