MJ is the GOAT, but go watch videos of games he played. He was the best out there but it wasn't mythical. There were guys playing during his time that were right there with him. Yet, his hyper train has got to the point to saying the second best player "isn't even close"


Only three players ever have had the ability to literally score at will: Wilt, Shaq and MJ. When they really wanted it, they scored or went to the FT line. Period. There was nothing you could do about it.

With Wilt it was because of when he played and who it was against

With Shaq, he couldn't hit the FTs once you put him on the line

Jordan got to name his point total on any given night. If he wanted 42, he was gonna score 42.

Yes, he was THAT good. The man averaged nearly 40 PPG in an NBA season as a wing player. He averaged 42 a game in a Finals series while the opposition essentially ignored every other player on the court except he and Pippen.

So the what you are really saying here is that is that 49% (1-his efg%) of the time Jordan didn't really want to score. How can some one be the GOAT if they don't even really care enough to try barely more than half the time?

The obvious point here is that your arguments are fricking dumb. Like super dumb.

So you are literally saying, that MJ didn't really care that much. That is your argument, because he only scored 30.1 pts/game on 49.7%

So your fricking argument is MJ didn't really care

Disagree.

There are a plethora of guys who flat out get buckets.
