Remember when Kobe told Lebron "passing your teammates the ball isnt the only way to make your teammates better" and the media crucified him for passing on the knowledge he got from MJ. Its really shedding light on that advice. It doesnt matter how much you pass your teammates the ball if they're not mentally tough and ready for big moments they'll play bad. I also like how Lebron fans bring up MJ punched little Steve Kerr and try to paint him as a bully but never bring up he punched Will Purdue a 7'1 Center as well.

[@shawnsms29]

Steve Kerr punched MJ first too, they never bring that up. What Lebron does is stat pad. When they lose he says it’s because “they” didn’t make their shots.

The show is what brought it up, not Lebron fans. And the show didn't talk about the Purdue incident. Blame it on the show for editing everything to perfection for MJ to look even better than he really was. Still wonder why MJ never tried it with Rodman, when it was obvious Rodman was uncontrollable.

[@lonerunner89]

Let's be real, Kobe Bryant was the same as Jordan behind the scenes with his teammates. He was a drill sargent and that's why he was a winner. LeBron doesn't have the energy and ruthlessness on the journey to success that Jordan and Kobe had. Jordan held everyone to the same standard as himself, perfection. Call it bullying or just call it plain starving to become a champion.

Does Shannon realize that MJ played PG? He avg. a triple double during that time period? I mean this is kind of sad because MJ's passing ability was just as elite as anyone in NBA's history. It's just sad that some reporters don't do their due diligence about a lot of these players and their abilities. If a coach like Phil comes in after you started to run PG and says MJ we need the ball in your hands less and we want to maximize on your scoring ability and defense ability so we can win more (not saying he would've won playing like LBJ!!! He took them to the Eastern conference finals, remember Scottie had a headache), then it changes the stats and perception of the player. MJ was an elite passer just like LBJ. Just sad that people don't break down film our know the game to the level to properly speak on players skill sets or stats, etc... Again I worked in the game so I get it, but still...
