    I really don't know how we got Harden hopefully winning the MVP to him being better than the guy who won 6 championships
    Never mind that the newbs have jumped him over Kobe and LeBron

    Why are you trying?

    There's a lack of respect for the past . This is not something you can fix, their parents should have done this.

    Doesn't matter if it's basketball or rap music or civil rights or geography.

    I'm sure your boy Harrison Barnes would have won the game.

    READ TITLE OF THREAD.

    Neither of these guys have a ring nor have they won an MVP yet. Jordan has SIX RINGS & FIVE MVP's.

    Regular season doesn't mean JACK ****!!!!!!

    You can not compare players from different eras. The game was different back then compared to today. Just not comparable. Plus Jordan has 6 rings to Harden's 0

    Harden isn't even considered the best player in his own era. So it's ridiculous.

    Obviously Harden can do things MJ cannot do or it's not his usual habit.

    But 1 on 1 I think MJ should dominate. This takes away teammates to pass the ball to.

    It's raw 1 on 1 scoring and defending.

    Jordan in that series against the Magic:
    Gm one (19 pts)
    Gm two (38 pts)
    Gm three (40 pts)
    Gm four (26 pts)
    Gm five (39 pts)

    After coming back from playing baseball and only playing 17 games that yr.

    Did MJ ever lose a playoff game 114-75 (at home) with the other teams best player not even playing (Kawhi) and only score 10 points, with SIX TO and foul out of the game?

    I will say one thing hakeem94, at least you're trying harder in this thread than Harden did in game 6 against the Spurs last yr.

    "Obviously Harden can do things that Jordan cannot do"?

    You mean like disappearing in the playoffs when it matters the most?

    Hopefully that will change this yr.

    CMON man i thought micheal had KILLER INSTINCT

    it was an elimination game ECsF
    3 minutes to go and bulls had 8 pts lead
    and he doesnt even score till the end and they lose by 2 points
    it was a full turnover choking mode
    first he become passive passing up shots then
    an airball then blocked in the paint and so on
    he couldnt score 3 straight minutes

    killer instinct? gimme a break
