His Airness Michael Jordan

[Guest megalodon]

Iba pa din si MJ compared sa mga players ngayon, noon alam mo basta itira ni MJ alam mo papasok eh kahit clutch time pa. Maybe Kobe is near his supremacy pero iba pa din ung 1st na nakagawa ng ganun impact eh. The best talaga si Michael Jordan. Pero idol ko pa din si Kobe Bryant.. Lakers 2010 champs!!!

 

-------------------------

 

Angas talaga ni Michael Jordan (one of my forever idol besides the Black Mamba). Snob nya si LeBron James nung Cavs-Heat game... ./GG

I wonder if this is the reason why LBJ would like to change his number. I mean after all, MJ is his idol.

you should always look beyond statistics to judge who the great players are.

 

i think MJ is the best player of all time because of:

 

1. He was competetive and will do everything to win. The best performance I've seen so far by any athlete was that game in, i think, game 5 of '97 finals against the Utah Jazz. MJ had a stomach flu and was physically weak. His teammates had to physically carry him to the bench during timeouts. Against all physical odds, he carried his team to victory and actually made that crucial 3 pointer that won them the game. It was just sheer determination to win.

 

2. He demands excellence. I've seen MJ in Rodman's face or whoever his teammates were that were not trying hard. As he said, he could not accept not trying.

 

3. He respected the game. He did not do anything that will harm the image of the nba.

 

4. He made his teammates look better. Remember the pass to Steve Kerr in game 6 of '97 finals. Steve Kerr's basket sealed them the title.

 

5. He made game winning shots not only in regular season but most importantly in playoffs and finals. He made shots that changed the tempo of the game. That beautiful lay-up in game 2 of '91 finals against the Lakers. That running jumper against Phoenix in '93 finals. That winning jumper on top of the key in game 1 of '97 finals against the Jazz.

 

6. He is a complete player. Most people forget that MJ is also a good defensive player. At one time he led the nba in scoring and steals (although AI did that also). MJ was named to nba all defensive team I think 7 or 8 times.

 

Agree...

 

I made a short term once for sports rehabilitation using MJ's Bio Kinetics as a subject(VHS Tapes...wala pang pirated dvd nun... )..a mere perfect almost non human performance everytime he performs unbelievable "stunts" the twists/turns jumps and landing seems break a basic human being's capacity...its quite hard to explain due to the complexity of his muscolo skeletal abilities....para bang lahat ng galaw nia pag ordinary tao ang nag execute...its either ligament injury or fracture ang katapat....2 cents ko....

Yeah, MJ is his idol talaga since LBJ's childhood. Minor idols naman nya sina Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson, as shown in the movie "More Than A Game". Prob is yung move na to ni LBJ ay hindi daw dahil as respect nya to MJ, but all about business! Somehow he's chasing Kobe Bryant (current #1 jersey seller all over the world). If you guys knew, LBJ wants to follow to be the next billion-dollar athlete.

 

And shempre sino ba ung first athlete to achieve the 1 Billion Dollar Status? its His Airness Michael Jordan!

Like him or hate him. He's proven himself to be quite business savvy.

At least, he's proved that for him, there's life after the game.

He started as a player, then player-manager, part owner and now full owner of an NBA Franchise.

That's some achievement.
