Frostshokula Bird was a better shooter and better rebounder, so I think you may be right on that. Haven't done a detailed look, to be honest. Barkley, in an interview with Patrick said his top five were Jordan, Robertson, Chamberlain, Russell, and Jabbar, in some order. Not a bad list. In either case, I think we are agreed that Lebron is not GOAT. Not all that close. Good, to be sure, but no.

MJ also has the highest player efficiency rating in NBA history. Highest ppg average of 30.12ppg in NBA history. MJ has 6 finals MVPS. MJ is the only player in NBA history to average over 100 blocks and over 200 steals two seasons. Scottie Pippen & Hakeem are the only other 2 players to do this 1 time. Jordan is the only player in NBA history to retire in his prime go play baseball and return 1 year and 6 months later to 3 peat. MJ being 6-0 in the finals with his accomplisments puts him for me at #1. Kareen to me is #2. Russell #3 and then the rest.

I was born in 80 and grew up watching MJ. The KZbin channel Joseph Vincent just released a 2hr long video spanning Jordans career. I figured I'd give it a watch to refresh my memory on how good Jordan was or if it was just nostalgia being a kid/teenager making him larger than life. The astounding thing after watching it was that he was actually better than I could remember. It's as if God molded the perfect basketball player. Not only was his physical gifts a cut above everyone else, insane 40+ vertical, hands larger than most 7 footers where he could snatch the ball out of thin air with one hand, break ankles by just palming the ball around faking people out. Running a 4.3 40 in college. All those physical gifts combined with a mental drive to win like no other. Absolute clutch shooter. A picture perfect midrange jumper. His other worldly hype was completely justified. Anyone trying to compare guys like Lebron to MJ are insane. Jordan was poetry in motion that could slice and dice his way to the rim like an agile cat. It's the media manufacturing another basketball savior to generate revenue who try to put guys like Lebron in the same echelon as Michael Jordan. There is only one MJ. There will never be another like him.
@calkelpdiver4 жыл бұрын
Being an Indiana boy (born there) I would have to agree with the General on his assessment. Jordan is the best to have played the game; so many abilities and drive, lifted his team. Russell is the most valuable; he won more titles and was a force in the league for a long time, and he tamed Wilt Chamberlin. And Red Auerbach was a wizard as a coach and GM; built some of the best teams ever. Good to see Bobby Knight in a calm and sane moment, he does know his stuff.

Knight's experience with Jordan on the Olympic team was what I suspect he expected before hand after having seen him perform on the college stage and in fact defeating him in '84 in the NCAA tournament on his way to his third NCAA title. He was somewhat close to Dean Smith in the coaching fraternity always expressing great respect for Smith, so knowing what a meticulous teacher of basketball Smith was Knight had to know Jordan would be well prepared for international competition. Jordan himself has credited Smith's coaching as the catalyst to making him the great player he became. Smith by the way beat the legendary Adolf Rupp like a drum in head to head games eventually surpassing Rupp's 876 wins ending with 879. Smith was a liberal icon in this very conservative southern state. But you can be damn sure that Dean Smith was a god down here and always will be. In my part of the state we're all Tar Heels. Its near Wilmington where MJ is from.
