which is blasphemy. Jordan was better in every way. But Jordan didn't need to throw pussy assists when he could run down the lane 1-5 and just start dunking on niccaz!!

lol hold up
magic was a far better team player who was much more versatile on offense.. a 6'9" guy that could rebound like a big man and bring it up the court/run the break better than any traditional point guard ever..and those "pussy assists" aka a bitchmade way of referring to magic's GOAT passing game was what made the Lakers the premier team in the 80's and what helped extend Kareem's legendary career for an extra 5 years, at least.
michael jordan was able to go 1-on-5, yes...but he was not able to make those around him better and run the show the way magic did, and thats another dimension of being great. so naah, it aint blasphemy, and if u followed magic's career, then u'd know that already.

Come on homie... you were what, 2, 3 years old when Magic was doin his thing? So you can't tell me about following his career. At least I was old enough to catch the last couple years of his career as an active fan of the NBA. But bottom liine is niether of us were really old enough to know Magic's career that well...
And I still stand by my statement. I don't know another way to say it, but I will try. It's impossible to get an assist and score at the same time. You have to choose one or another. And a real-ass G is gonna go ahead and score and take the glory like a true G should.. while a pussy ass - chearleading nicca is gonna be like, "Yeaaah, go team, I will pass you the ball so everyone can touch it and we can all have fun and share in this joyful experience"... naw nicca, fuck that.. Jordan is taking that shit and scoring when Paxson and Longley and the rest of dem niccaz didn't have the balls to sieze da moment
Hack Wilson - real:
NIK was like 4 or 5 when Magic retired...clearly enough to be 100% sure about everything Magic/Jordan related :laugh:

Shit.. when I was 5 years old I remember the older heads on the block used to call me Danny Manning and my brother Michael Jordan. I used to argue with people that Danny Manning was better than Jordan and didn't even know the difference between NBA and College. I also thought the WWF was real and that Rocky Balboa was the real heavyweight boxing Champion.

lol that's great and all but I've followed magic through watchin old tapes, reading books, documentaries, etc... I'm sure u know more about Eldridge cleaver than I do, but that's from reading his shit. U didn't have to be alive at the time to understand his greatness.. And you, homie, do not understand the greatness of Magic Johnson
Thing is, magic could score AND pass... Its not like he was a pass only player. He just did what it took for his team to win, and that was fill every role based on what was needed. The Showtime Lakers would shit on the 90s Bulls wit the quickness.
