Will MJ let his Championship Bulls get swept by the 2011 Mavs?

[ezau]

This isn't a knock to the current defending champions because it's obvious that they deserved and earned their le this year.

The question is, if MJ isn't really as good as some Lakers fan here say, would any of those Chicago Bulls championship teams be swept by the 2011 Mavs?

[TE]

No.

[LkrFan]

MJ has been swept. He has no room.

...as has the Spurs via The Skunker.

He last rang in 1998. By my count, MJ is at least 50+ years old (so are his teammates). So yeah he would have let the 2011 Mavs sweep his Chicago Bulls champion teams.

ohh let's see...coming off of 3 straight finals...maybe not since he 3 peated twice...but coming off 3 straight finals after leading his team to an Olympic Gold Medal ( not bronze) but GOLD all in "successive" years...meaning 4 straight years of excessive play while your #2 option Gasol has plays in the Summertime with his National team - something Pippen never did...YES he would have gotten swept as well... no doubt about it...see every time you post something Kool has a legitimate counter for it...

[Sportcamper]

MJ’s greatness is soo overrated…MJ had a cast of dominating players like Rusty LaRue, Keith Booth, Luc Longley, ey Simpkins…Who has Kobe ever played with that can match that stacked roster...

[baseline bum]

Are you talking prime Jordan or current 48 year-old Jordan? Either way, the answer is no.

Kobe hates losing. which is great. in order to be a great player, you have to hate losing.

but Jordan would damn near kill to avoid losing.


I don't think any player in NBA history has had the type of disdain for losing that MJ had, which is the main thing that separates him from Kobe IMO. I think the thought of losing bothered him more than it bothers Kobe. MJ never seemed to feel content unless he was winning, but Kobe this year seemed to get a little content. MJ I think is a much more prideful person than Kobe is, which is great in the sports world if utilized correctly.

However, I think the way they lost has motivated Kobe, and he will have a much better year than people think. Not sure if they will win a championship, but I expect him to have a much better showing all season and in the playoffs than he did last year.

Though he didn't avoid losing for 7 years and refrained from killing.
