Please Put Jordan Talk to Bed
It's been awhile since I saw Michael Jordan play, especially at an elite level, so my memory could be a bit fuzzy. But I can not recall ANY game, any PLAYOFF game where his team fell behind 21-3 to a team that was missing it's two best players. No Yao, no McGrady, no chance. For the Lakers? Couple this with the performance of the Lakers in the Finals vs. Detroit a few years back and Kobe's performance in that game 7 vs. Phoenix in round 1 a couple years after that, and friends, Kobe Bryant is not even close to Michael Jordan. The only player who plays today that could be in the discussion would be LeBron James. That's it. Kobe's an awesome player. An all-time Top 10 player. Just not a Top 3 player.
