Two totally different styles of play. You never saw Miller driving the lane like Durant does today.

Same exact style shoot your eyes out then when you close out too fast he'll go by you. Obviously Durant being 4-5 inches taller does it all at a much higher level(no pun intended)

I don't even want to read the rest of this thread.

The majority of people on here probably don't know anything about Jordan.

The dude is a compulsive gambling, drunk, smug a-hole.

Of course he would say this.

Has anyone mentioned how terrible a judge of talent MJ is yet?

He is a pretty horrible person. I don't get how the love affair people have with him stays so strong. ESPN has been going on about how EVERYBODY just loves Jordan and he amazing he is. For Christs sake wasn't his father killed behind his gambling debts?

If you are a winner, you can be an a-hole. People will excuse you by saying, "Well, he is just a competitor."

That's pretty fair. Those 4 have the most unique talents in the game and are tough players

CP3 is a soft flopping bitch, so excluding him is a good call

Spot on dolla.


You both are stupid. If you believe that.

Or Kevin Durant?

Jordan isn't referring to sheer athleticism and ability but to the way basketball was played back then. Basketball in the 80's & 90's had a resemblance to the Big Ten and its "3 yards in a cloud of dust" apporoach. He is basically saying that the guys of today aren't tough enough.

MJ is an arrogant a-hole who has zero clue of how to judge talent

Look at every roster he has ever put together. Todays nba is superior in every way.....except at the center position. But the overall size of players in general today, almost nullifies the need

No kidding. The dude is a freak of nature. He looks like an alien.

His size, ball handling, and shot ability are amazing if you look at his stature.

Rice backed up Brown's assertion.
