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

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.

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.
