@@PJBoyPeople can still hoop, but there’s zero chance they can hoop against LEBRON JAMES! MJ is 20 years removed from the NBA, where in his last season he was only an average player. In 2015, Lebron was still the best player in the entire league. Lebron smokes MJ in a 1v1, and that’s not because Lebron is a better player, it’s because Lebron is one of the greatest ever in his prime, where MJ is retired. The fact 34% think MJ beats Lebron in a 1v1 in the year 2015 shows that you can’t take peoples opinions seriously. You have to be criminally insane or idiotic to believe he can hoop against Lebron as a 50 year old man.

I lived through the Jordan era. If you let nostalgics and media tell it: Michael Jordan’s career started in 1991, he never had a bad performance in the playoffs, made ever shot, grabbed every board, dimed every assist, snatched every steal, blocked every shot, sold beer in the 300 section of the United Center, tore tickets outside pregame, sang the national anthem, performed at halftime and played 1 on 5 against The Mon-stars every Finals with a special needs person at head coach while playing on a court of broken glass. Stop it. The BULLS, the Chicago Bulls were arguably the greatest team ever assembled. Lebron was never given anything close to what Phil and Jerry Krause gave MJ until he went and got help himself. SAS used to sing Lebron’s praises when First Take was Skip’s show. Skip left and now he has to take the Lebron hate throne for entertainment balance for the show. I’ve seen this act before lol

[@Reemopodcast]

“As you know (insert name here) I’m the biggest Jordan fan there is.” Skips favorite line for years

[@balldontlie4524]

52 year old Jordan would have lost to the best highschool player at that time.

[@tdot8645]

ehhh

[@MrC77]

If Jordan gets the ball first he wins. No highschool player would be able to stop Jordan in the post.

Saw Jordan on the Wizards and Rip Hamilton would have beat him at that point. Clearly. But Skip is just outright embarrassing regardless.

Ahhh, so THIS is what rich people talk about.

[@KenSherman]

Kerri [or however you spell her name] said, "bye Stephen A.” Not to mention that annoying laugh that she made seemingly in defense of Skip.🙄 As much as I'm not much of a fan for Molly - the current First Take hostess - I think Molly would never do that to SAS because she has a little more class or grace than that. Oh, the disrespect of Molly's predecessor. 😑
