MJ was smart to not pay Kemba

[FKAri]

In this case, I think MJ was unique knowledge of how useless short guards are

That was Phil's philosophy - he hated short guards

I think MJ always appreciated Kemba's attitude, but wished he was like 6'5"

You gotta understand - as usual, MJ must do it the organic way - that always takes longer then being gifted AD or KD like bigger markets get.. so it's easy to call MJ an idiot when you know he'll never acquire a guy like AD and will have to draft such a player.. but he'll persevere and end up on top, because that's what he does

No. It's easy to call him an idiot because this is the same nigguh that drafted Kwame Brown #1 overall because he gave him the work in a 1 on 1 in a pre-draft workout.

MJ could have gotten something back had he traded him instead. Huge fail

[stalkerforlife]

Yep.

Why max out a player that can't even get to the playoffs?

who the fvck did MJ put around Kemba?

[GOBB]

Yeah not smart. Now go back in the lottery and search for another Kemba or better in the draft. And let

If you are happy to accept being mediocre at best and never better then I guess the approach is fine. Because it's true that Walker can't just drag a team to the playoffs. They can probably make money without ever fielding a competitive team so that approach makes business sense.

Now why that would make a fan happy, I have no idea and MJ the player wouldn't have accepted MJ the owner, that's for certain.

Yeah not smart. Now go back in the lottery and search for another Kemba or better in the draft. And let’s hope you don’t make another so called smart decision and not pay them. Dumb move. Like you’re talking about not paying the guy because it’ll mess up payroll like he didn’t take on shitty deals that weighed down payroll. Like huh? Most come off books and Batum is an expiring contract.

Good luck in the lottery tho, no seriously. Hopefully they land a generational talent.

With kemba as the team's #1 guy, the ceiling is 1st round playoff exit

Why shoot for that?

MJ was smart to seek a higher ceiling through the draft.. Emoni Bates or some shit that can put them over the top

MJ "smart"

MJ "smart"

He sure played a smart way wouldn't you say?

His skillset allowed coaches to design great teamwork and ball movement around him, which is better than the dribble-happy lebron can say

89' Phil Jackson would never be sitting as the assistant coach thinking "man, when Krause lets me take over for Doug, I'm going to install the triangle because Lebron's skillset can make it work"... But he thought thay about mj because his skills were superior and allowed it

I legit laugh when i hear skip Bayless say lebron is the smartest player ever.. he's infact one of the dumbest, at least among all-time great perimeter players

Way to move the goalpost!

Is this thread about him as a player or his decisions as an owner?

MJ is a very, very bad owner and that isn't even up for debate.

Next time stay on topic in your own thread and guzzle MJ's jizz in another thread.

Was he smart to pay Rozier 19 million, 3ball?

I simply responded to you calling MJ dumb, and pointed out that he played a much smarter way than Bron ever did

And all you guys do is move goal posts.. you think I can get a straight answer from you guys on time of possession or team-hopping?...
