I've always wondered how guys like Magic, Bird, and MJ would be perceived had they been playing in the social media era.
not the first NBA superstar, nor the last, to do so. Paul Westhead coached Magic Johnson to his first NBA ring. in the next year, Magic talked Lakers owner into firing Westhead, replaced by Pat Riley and a couple yrs later replaced by phil jackson
No, Ennis is. As a rookie, he tried to get Spoelstra fired, but he underestimated Riley's loyalty, so got traded. First stint at MEM, Joerger got fired. Then he left for a year, only to come back and Fizdale gets fired And after midseason trade to Detroit, Stan Van Gundy gets fired, which meant 2 coaches in one season, and 3 total. Do you think that was all a coincidence?
MY MAN IS A SCAPEGOAT! HE IS INNOCENT OF ALL CHARGES! I really think all of those general managers were just like, "Look, if we bring in a player as good as James Ennis and you can't win a championship you've just got to go."
Lebron wants Marc Jackson as coach. Bron don’t wanna run plays, he wants his teammates to stand in the corner and let him statpad. Anthony Davis would be commiting career suicide going to play with Bron
You’re right. I shouldn’t be making general statements like that. Jordan and Magic were before my time tbh. I will amend my take. I don’t think Lebron should be considered goat because I hate how much he whines. He also has everything tailor made for his success, which is a luxury others aren’tafforded.
Funny about the perspectives from different ages. Jordan and Magic were the new guys for me...only caught the end of Wilt's era.
Yeah. So, you saw some of wilt? I have absolutely no perspective on how good he actually was, or how he played.
