I respect Jordan fans because a story will come out like “he held BJ Armstong’s whole family at gunpoint for months” and to a man they all go “it worked didn’t it?” - ThreadSky

I feel the same way about Max fans.

bainard.bsky.social•25 days ago

they ran off every draft pick not named Kukoc (which they also almost did) for a decade, but hey rings are rings

joeinkm.bsky.social•25 days ago

Jordan doesn't tip service workers.

awaykit.bsky.social•25 days ago

bold move by a Kobe stan to bring up fair treatment of service workers

joeinkm.bsky.social•25 days ago

The fuck are you talking about? Do you see kobe anything in my bio? Do you see any posts about kobe? You are PSYCHOTIC just for making that assumption. Seek help.

awaykit.bsky.social•25 days ago

lmao

the sweaty desperation and insecurity give it away

joeinkm.bsky.social•25 days ago

Am literally a Sonics fan. You are delusional and you need psychiatric help. Now you are muted for life. Good day.

awaykit.bsky.social•25 days ago

have fun sitting in an empty Tacoma dome rooting for a fictional team.

HE WANTED TO WIN THAT BADLY

seanob.bsky.social•25 days ago

If MJ literally killed someone they had it coming

tcmcg.bsky.social•25 days ago

“He was performing his own MKULTRA experiments on Jud Buechler.”

“And got 10 minutes and 4 points out of him!”

edsbs.bsky.social•25 days ago

DID IT WORK, THAT IS ALL I’M ASKING

triggerloop.bsky.social•25 days ago

You got what almost would be a guffaw out of me - even as the rest of my body is filled with existential dread. And I’d even say that is an understatement for the Jordan ultras

brianobliviondds.bsky.social•25 days ago

I had a copy of Rare Air.
I am 44.
I believed in MJ and Juanita.
I don't anymore.

billreid.bsky.social•25 days ago

The only story about Jordan being a belligerent asshole that’s fun is when he made the mistake of thinking it would work on Robert Parish.

haredurer.bsky.social•24 days ago

I was once talking to a guy who was thrilled to share his story about golfing with Jordan and all I could think was “oh, that guy’s a psychopath.”

lonestarball.bsky.social•25 days ago

When he complained about Bill Cartwright's bad hands, Phil Jackson told him to throw the ball at Cartwright's head whenever he passed it to him.

And Jordan did it.

And, well, it worked out, didn't it?

Man knew how to motivate people.

mrbrendan23.bsky.social•25 days ago

Chuck Klosterman said it best.

pimpcauldron.bsky.social•25 days ago

I wish we could have had MJ and draymond playing at the same time.

kyr504.bsky.social•25 days ago

6 rings

petertheaverage.bsky.social•25 days ago

This is in my office. I’d just make Jordan go left.

edsbs.bsky.social•25 days ago

Kobe fans want you to acknowledge his greatness and for Jordan fans it’s not even a question, they just want to tell you the 48th story about MJ calling Damon Stoudemire “a tiny-ass bitch” in front of Damon’s mom

harrisoncklee.bsky.social•25 days ago

Brady fans are the worst of both worlds because they'll tell you about how he went to some famous steakhouse and then complained about the menu

jimboch.bsky.social•25 days ago

Ultimately Kevin Durant is Michael’s true heir, Michael jordan’s burner account would have been incredible

kyr504.bsky.social•25 days ago

The Last Dance was 200 minutes of MJ telling us how much of an asshole he was and him thinking something wrong with US for not being that way...anyone ELSE does that documentary we saying he a terrible person. MJ did it and we like YEAH I LOVE THIS GUY...he's not a good person SIX RINGS MY 🐐

chgotolv.bsky.social•25 days ago

Fuck them kids and fuck this comment!😁

mdwdfw.bsky.social•25 days ago

Jordan was a complete sociopath and we REVERED HIM for it.

edsbs.bsky.social•25 days ago

Ps we really let Phil Jackson slide way too easy for going “wow, that’s crazy, you know the Navajo have a word for that” while MJ was busy pistol-whipping Luc Longley for flubbing one (1) rebound in practice

tcmcg.bsky.social•25 days ago

In fairness, Luc had Mister Fantastic powers until Jordan stopped the serum. (“Surfing accident,” yeah, right.)

bainard.bsky.social•25 days ago

MJ slaps the vegemite out of his hands and he turns into a statue

tcmcg.bsky.social•25 days ago

Turns *back* into a statue, let’s be accurate, at least.

bainard.bsky.social•25 days ago

yes fair.

worfwworfington.bsky.social•25 days ago

Jordan also was blessed to play with big men who had great senses of humor in Perdue, Longley and Wennington. Had he done more than 18 games with Bison Dele, it might have been a problem

bonescrosby.bsky.social•25 days ago

God bless Robert Parish for not putting up with that crap

thecleric.bsky.social•25 days ago

How many of Phil Jacksons rings can we write up to "Right place; right time" vs actual coaching?

olliemcclellan.bsky.social•25 days ago

He might be the GOAT when it comes to ego managment.

bonescrosby.bsky.social•25 days ago

Really the only time it didn’t work was when he ran into Larry Brown and the Pistons. “The best coach” and “two best players in the league” got absolutely torched.

thecleric.bsky.social•25 days ago

I will concede this 100%.

plbsu.bsky.social•25 days ago

He's a HOF coach for the simple reason of He Convinced Jordan and Kobe to Pass the Ball Occasionally.

stcronin.bsky.social•23 days ago

All of them

hotsaucephd.bsky.social•25 days ago

mrseangordon.bsky.social•25 days ago

Look, if you’re not dangling your teammates children over a pool of piranhas are you really that committed to winning?

phollanda.bsky.social•25 days ago

Is the Navajo word "Just punch him like Steve Kerr did, then he'll respect you"?

rhenkamatoor.bsky.social•24 days ago

Just realized Jordan and Ty Cobb...kinda similar guys.

lamsoyd.bsky.social•25 days ago

Phil Jackson: [emerging from a giant cloud of marijuana smoke while tripping on seven different hallucinogenics] hey come on Luc

mv41.bsky.social•25 days ago

He was literally upset he missed a Grateful Dead show in 1993 because the NBA finals went too late into June

lamsoyd.bsky.social•25 days ago

I would believe a story about Phil Jackson that included the phrase “highest anyone has ever been in recorded history”

mv41.bsky.social•25 days ago

He spent some serious time with Walton in the 70s and 80s in the summer. Draw your own conclusions.

jakealbrecht.bsky.social•25 days ago

The world is lucky Michael Jordan was good at basketball. If he hadn’t been he’d be ruling us with an iron fist.

rfcapsmoustache.bsky.social•25 days ago

forever

lamsoyd.bsky.social•25 days ago

somebody: *breathes*

one million MJ stans: LaBradford Smith

laportereporte.bsky.social•25 days ago

He's probably every bit as terrible a golfer and definitely every bit as degenerate a gambler as Barkley but nobody says that because why would you want to do that to yourself and your family

thegreggles.bsky.social•25 days ago

smart Kobe fans(me) know he isn’t top 5, but that doesn’t make him any less fuckin awesome

saintfdw.bsky.social•25 days ago

I’m 95% certain if COVID happened while Jordan was on the Bulls, they would have all been vaccinated….. because Jordan would have kidnapped every single person and done it himself. Regardless of whether he believed in it or not.

cinquinho.bsky.social•25 days ago

He made Steve Kerr wanna fight him. Steve Kerr!

mindofayinzer.bsky.social•25 days ago

Is it a coincidence that I was a huge Jordan fan and clamoring to read Machiavelli at age 10? Who's to say really.

laportereporte.bsky.social•25 days ago

he's also the one person on Earth who could do this to Bird and walk away unroasted
