The Jazz would have owned both teams...... (10 years ago).

Say what you want, but noone worked Michael Jordan better than the Jazz.

They played hard but in the end where just another victim for Jordan and the Bulls.

You mean for Jordon alone.

This was a typical Jazz vs. Bulls playoff game.

No Michael, Jazz ahead by 12. Michael comes in and the Bulls pull ahead by 2. Michael is out, jazz pull ahead by 12, michael comes back and Bulls lead by 2.

Well, that's why he's the best player to ever play the game.

Amen to that.

Lakers vs Suns this sunday. Sorry for you Laker fans but I think the Suns are going to unleash a serious ass whooping after their dissapointing performance last night.

I hope not, cause I would like to see the Spurs get the 2 seed.

no no no no no bad bannister bad!!!!! now go to your corner

 

[Bannister]

no no no no no bad bannister bad!!!!! now go to your corner

Honestly I don't think homecourt will matter much if the spurs play the suns. It will all come down to The Suns hitting their outside shots. they had a poor shooting night last night and that did them in.

Based on the youthfulness of your photo I trust that you never were lucky enough to see either Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell or Oscar Robertson play the game at their peak?

I am not even sure that I would call Jordan the best player in the last thirty years. He certainly was in a class by himself. But I would place the talents of both Ervin Johnson and Larry Bird right up there with him. Jordan may have been a more excellent individual player with unequaled personal skills while Johnson and Bird were consumate team players who could make almost anyone on their team play to their upmost best.

And when you say "the game" are you limiting this to the professional game? Jordan in college was a good player but nothing that would even place him in the top 25 of all time. On the other hand, I have never seen the likes of Lew Alcindor (the name he played under in college), Bill Walton or David Thompson as college players since those wonderful days.

These type of discussion are never solved - typical bar banter - but they are fun if everyone has an open mind.

I would agree that Jordan is the best one on one player seen in the last thirty years. But it is virtually impossible to compare his skill set with other players whose position demanded a completely different skill set.

Robertson had some crazy stats. Dude averaged a triple double. Freaking Chamberlain averaged 50 a game an entire season and of course had the 100 point game.(quick trivia, where was that game played?) and didn't Russell pull down 55 rebounds in a game once. That is just crazy.
