Last night, Twitter was full of people saying: "Michael Jordan would never ask out of a game because of cramps!" Well, it happened in 1997.

Michael Jordan asked to be subbed out of Game 4 of '97 Finals due to stomach cramps, writes @lazenby in his book "Michael Jordan: The Life."

Jordan asking out of Game 4 of the 97 NBA Finals due to cramping was overlooked at the time. But it happened, as I later revealed.

Well MJ isnt a person or a bball player anymore, hes a super hero. Like Tom Brady and Derek Jeter. The American public loves their superheroes, just like Klinsmann said. American betas love believing their favorite athletes are superhero prince charmings with otherworldly special abilities and infallible qualities here to save the day. American beta men are swooning idol worshippers like a bunch of bobby soxer teenage girls at a Sinatra concert. Theyre in love with their sports heroes. They think theyre perfect and love to narrate their stories with a science fiction tint rather than base them in reality.

It is what it is.

Came back after he went out, finished the game, played 42 minutes.

Anything else?

Did Jordan finish the game? We need inside info!

Since when were body cramps not a legitimate reason to ask out of a game?

I agree. Jordan has evolved into something larger than life. Why cant we just give James the benefit of the doubt and accept that he was seriously hurt. Why would he pull himself out if he wasn't?

LeBron would never get some groupie pregnant and then refuse to support his child. They're different in many ways.

Whats your point?

Lebron also came back in after he went out.

Lebron also came back in after he went out.

He did not finish the game.

What's your point? The game is over. Suck it up and move on.

Jordan had to give his ex-wife like $200 million....... NOT alpha at all.

I'm 100% rooting for the Spurs, but all of this LeBron hate makes this forum unbearable.

LeBron haters are literally the worst thing in sports. So delusional and bitter. I'm not even a LeBron fan but I an understand this situation.
