    Default [Retro] Jordan gets blocked by high schooler; calls phantom fouls

    "You can tell he got pretty upset after that and he called some fouls right after that that weren't [fouls]"

    This **** is pretty funny. And before the trolling starts, no this does not diminish Jordan as GOAT in any way. It's funny though.

    What year is this from? It appears to be mid-90's-ish. If so, he was looking pretty spry on that lob. I liked it.

    Yeah, compared to Jordan, LeBron is a huge ****ing crybaby when it comes to calls. Jordan is a huge, immature a$$hole, but he is mentally tough and not a crybaby. These are both well known what was your point?

    You forgot to mention Jordan proceeded to score 38 against the kid the rest of the night.

    This shouldn't really be a knock on Jordan though; it's just how it is.

    When you're much more experienced at something, there's a lot of pressure on you to dominate - it can be stressful when you're actually challenged by someone who is truly your inferior.

    I was teaching submissions to a friend of mine a few years back, and I got a little over-confident - he caught me being lazy and threw an arm bar on me... I went to stack and messed up my grip; since he was new to it he didn't realize how little effort it takes to **** somebodies arm up and he threw it WAY too hard. I was too proud to tap right away and ended up tearing a few tendons in my elbow. Walked around with a sling for the next few weeks.

    this may be beside the point seeing how the thread is going, but I do think its a foul(the block on the dunk attempt).

    Ofcourse. MJ was going up against the new generation of ballers with which he would not have been able to compete.
