Dejounte Murray Was Talking TRASH To Paolo

There was also serious evidence that he was struggling to replay gambling debts at the time as well – he was in debt for over $1 million, with a friend of his. He welched on the debt, because he couldn’t afford to repay it. In the end they settled on a $200k repayment.
You have to remember that MJ in 1992 was not the MJ of 2020 or even the MJ of 1998. He was only earning about $2 million a year in 1992. His salary only became huge in 1996 when he started earning $20–30 million a year.
So, we have solid evidence he had gambling debts with gangsters. And solid evidence he had gambling debts he couldn’t afford to pay back – albeit with friends.
Finally, the story concerning the death is also suspicious in my opinion. His father didn’t just die, overnight. He was missing for over 3 weeks before his body was found. MJ and his family claimed it wasn’t that unusual for their father to go and visit friends, for weeks on end.
But still, the timeline is that that James Jordan disappeared off the face of the earth for 3 weeks, before re-appearing dead in his car, in a lay by.
Sure, he could have just died in his car, as the official story suggests and nobody found him for weeks. But another possible scenario is he was possibly kidnapped/ransomed for a number of weeks, before a robbery was staged, and he was just dumped in the lay-by

If not for Ray Allen and Kyrie on last second/minute game savers, Lebron would be 2 of 9 in finals. Even so, 4 out of 9 ain’t good.

Mad dog saying Jordan never came up short is partially why the goat arguments are so hilarious. When people talk about Jordan they talk about the legend or stories of him. When lebron is the subject everything is pinpointed and exact. Jordan came up short in the clutch multiple times like every other great player

Jordan was also the better rebounder when you consider the Position Shooting Guard vs Forward. *Jordan is the 3rd best shooting Guard in rebounds per game in NBA history.* But Lebron is NOT the 3rd best Forward in rebounds, not even top 10.

also Jordan ‘s era had a better defense and it was harder to score in Jordan’s era, you could not do all the traveling that player’s do today. Jordan better than Lebron,yes

LeBron is top 5 but not number 2, that’s always gonna be Kareem. I’ll put him at no.5 behind magic and kobe.

And why is Stephen A Smith keep saying LeBron didn’t have help? D Wade? Chris Bosh? Kyrie? Ray Allen? K Love? JR Smith? C’mon now! LeBron is great but he did have help!

What if Jordan not retire for 6 years. He should have 8 Rings,8MVP and all time leading scores. Jordan all time 🐐.

Look I think it’s unfair to Kobe who deserves to be in the conversation. I actually put him above Lebron. As far as MJ, he will always be the the GOAT because he was a trend setter and a global icon! Just look at the Jordan brand. It’s still around and outselling everybody! Lebron will leave the league one day and he will be just another superstar just like Kobe, Tim Duncan and Shaq. That is what puts him above everyone.

between a guy who plays 3 -3 1/2 quarters who never cared about winning, while playing on 1 end of the the court, versus the guy who plays plays both ends of the court and always finds a way to win. ill take the later all day long. this goat debate is non sense.

Having the mindset that mj will always be the goat is clear bias. I think mj and lebron are tied
