The High Heat Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I like the plate discipline. Honestly, though. His baseball career is considered something of a joke, but if you think about how difficult a game it is, the fact that he even did what he did is a testament to what type of athlete he is. He hadn't played competitvely in like 13 years, right? And he just walked onto a fairly high level of play and hit .200. There are guys who can't do that who have played every day their entire lives. Maybe there's something I'm missing, but I think if he had gone with baseball instead of basketball, he could have been a hell of a player. The 30 steals are impressive, too. There is a skill to it, not just speed. If I remember right Jordan was playing very well by season's end. I believe all three of his homers came in the last month. And yeah, AA is a high level. Anybody else would be in low A at best. It would have interesting to see a 21-year-old Jordan playing centerfield. Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Jordan can eat a bowl of f and get genital warts in his stomach for all I care, but the man was the best that's ever been, so none can refute his smack-talk.I won't argue with you, but I'll say this: I always HATED that fucker. Hated the NC Tar Heels, hated the Bullsalways and forever. Link to post Share on other sites

I feel the EXACT same way about Reggie Miller, though we know who generally got the best of that matchup, don't we Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I feel the EXACT same way about Reggie Miller, though we know who generally got the best of that matchup, don't we Dammit. That year the Bulls were "the best team ever" (72-10) we were the only team to beat them twice (2-2 during the season), and went to the last 2 minutes of game 7 in the playoffs. That was the BEST chance the Pacers ever had at winning the whole thing. I could not speak for days, I was so hoarse from screaming at the TV. So yeah, I HATE that guy.

The 1995-96 Bulls (72-10) swept the Magic in the Eastern finals, the year the Pacers took them seven was 1997-98, Jordan's last year. A lot of those years run together a bit for me too, I could have sworn they beat the Jazz all three times in the second three-peat. --Mike Link to post Share on other sites
