    Successful troll is successful

    Nice clips. I suggest not speeding some of them up though

    It's slightly above average for a player his height (he claims he's "just over 6-4 w/o shoes") but it's not super out of the ordinary. His hand quickness probably has just as much if not more to do with his steals / blocks rather than just his length

    hahaha! I remember reading that on the thread I posted...

    I guess a guy who sucked at defense, couldn't dribble with his left hand and struggled in big moments would hold his own against MJ if Mullin essentially could...JORDAN'S A SCRUB TOO!?

    In an interview (in the late 90's I think?) MJ picked Jerry West as his SG (behind himself tho obviously ) for his all-time team. Not sure if Kobe would displace him in Jordan's eyes or not but obviously up to that point Jordan thought West was the (2nd) best ever SG

    Jordans flip flopped like mitt romney with Kobe if Im not mistaken...Don't quote me but hes said that hes the only one that "deserves" to be compared to him (Deserves...situational narcissism much?)..but then also said unless I'm just derping at the moment that hes not top 2 or 3 SG's of all time...

    BTW, I dont know if you saw this already but I thought id post here...not to mke this a wilt thread buuuuuuut
