His Airness Michael Jordan

I remember when Jordan was still a young player. Ang daming nagsasabi bakaw si Jordan hindi namamasa. Mas magaling dyan si Barkley. After Jordan won championships as a player, a lot of his detractors just kept quiet. Now he is considered one of the best players ever.

bill russell, david robinson, charles barkley, robert parish, scottie pippen, bill walton, lenny wilkens, jerry west...all for MJ

 

pano kung ang sukatan ng pagiging greatest eh yung dami ng championship ring na suot mo, winning it all with you as the main man?

Honestly, is it fair for Bill Russell?

 

 

dbale ill find international great players who they think is the greatest... :goatee:

 

Zydrunas Ilgauskas once said that his idol, Arvydas Sabonis is the greatest player in the world... :lol: :lol: look at him now....

got this from ESPN.com

 

 

Michael Jordan:

 

Teams: Chicago Bulls (1984-93, 1995-98), Washington Wizards (2001-03)

 

Titles: 6 (1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, 1998)

 

Honors: 14-time All-Star, 5-time MVP (1988, 1991, 1992, 1996, 1998), 6-time Finals MVP, Rookie of the Year (1985), Defensive Player of the Year (1988)

 

The player: The standard by which all other players are measured.

 

Air Jordan was the most skilled, most athletic, toughest, meanest, most inspirational and most competitive of all the shooting guards who have ever played the game. He dominated both ends of the floor. He also was the biggest winner and perhaps the greatest clutch player in history.

 

The credentials -- and pictures -- speak for themselves: six championship rings, five MVP awards, six Finals MVP awards, one defensive POY award. And his career numbers were otherworldly, most notably 32,292 points (third all time) and a 30.1 points per game scoring average (first). Oh, and he averaged 20 points and six rebounds as a 40-year-old! Only his last two seasons in Washington kept him from shooting more than 50 percent for his career.

 

Jordan had no real weaknesses; he mastered every facet of the game. He dominated a big man's game and was the leader of the only dynasty in NBA history that did not feature a dominant center.

 

On top of all that, he helped make the NBA a global game. From his trademark tongue wag to his game-winning shot in the 1998 NBA Finals, MJ was the most electrifying player ever to step on a court.

 

The greatest player of all time.

Just wanna share a Jordan memorabilia that I can't think of posting anywhere else.. Its not a basketball card and definitely this does not belong in the fashion thread..

 

My mom gave me a surprise gift (for no apparent reason) a week ago.. She knew that I was really contemplating on buying the Jordan 23 Commemorative Nike Basketball that was recently released a week ago.. She knows how much I love basketball, Tim Duncan and Michael Jordan.. I really got surprised when she bought me that Jordan ball that she knows I've been salivating for.. Here are the pictures.. :blush:

 

FYI, this ball was made by Nike to coincide with the Jordan XXIII (shoe) release.. A limited leather ball numbered to just 2,323.. The ball is now in my istante together with my Basketball Cards.. :rolleyes: Php6K ang damage.. I was told that only 23 of these came in the Philippines.. :thumbsupsmiley:

@wizard23: Thanks, bro.. Most of my collections are really about Tim Duncan.. Cards, Replica Jerseys, Magazine Covers and the like.. And I do collect NBA Cards.. Ofcourse, a collection of NBA Cards won't be complete if you do not have an autographed card of Michael Jordan.. That is how MJ makes one's collection glow, bro.. And its funny, coz it can be seen here that MJ does not only leave an impact on the hardcourt but also on a certain person's NBA collection.. hehehe..

 

@bluevodka: Thanks.. I think I've posted my shoes in the Basketball shoes thread a few months back.. I do like buying retro Jordans but sinusuot ko kasi kaya hindi sila deadstock.. I actually do not have the limited & numbered Jordan XXIII shoes.. FYI, that shoe is being sold in e-bay for Php100K++, now.. Lumabas yung shoe na yan dito sa atin, sa Nike - The Fort lang.. And they were only 23 pairs available.. Ubos na ngayon yan.. I know of some people who got the P15K shoes (original price) for Php40K coz hindi sila nakakuha dahil ni-raffle daw ang right to acquire the shoe.. This is the reason why I was so happy when my mom bought me the limited edition Basketball.. :thumbsupsmiley: Ganyan ka-grabe ang Jordan memorabilia.. :rolleyes:

 

This actually is a testament to Jordan's greatness.. I don't know of any basketball player that has this kind of impact in the game..

 

Here is my autographed card of Jordan (I already posted the picture of this in the NBA Rookie cards thread and on the Jordan cards thread, a year ago).. and some memorabilia cards.. :blush:
