NBA: Damn that Michael Jordan Alpha Male gene is something different

[DMC]

I'll put it this way. Choose any random big city in the world, you go ask 10 ppl in the street if they know the names Michael Jordan and Lebron James.

without a shred of doubt in my mind I can tell you at least 7 out of 10 ppl will know who Jordan is. Lebron, on the other hand, 2 at most 3 out of 10.(and that's being nice)

You're wrong and you just pulled that from your ass. Lebron James is a household name just like Tiger Woods.

[Clipper Nation]

at the idea that being a good teammate instead of a damn near sociopathic asshole makes you a pussy tbh....

[DMC]

A lot of stupid being said around here tbh. Jordan would be dead IRL if he wasn't a basketball player. He does not have the Personality to be an alpha male IRL when gets tough and he can no longer us status. If a group of people are stuck in Island Micheal Jordan would be the last person I would listen to, he would be the last person any person with diginity should listen to..IRL he's that guy that thinks he's the but get's curbstopmed by some dude.

Alpha has nothing to do with being a ing a-hole. Alpha has a lot to do with respect. Respect is what gets you "Genuine" leadership..MJ is a leader only because he's the best player in the team and the Media hyped him to be some sort of God..Yeah he's the GOAT. But he's not an Alpha male.

He's a product of face. An ego made by fame..

He's no better than a got like Justin Bieber...

More poor English takes from the resident alien weirdo.

i've heard people say Elgin Baylor was the Jordan before Jordan
i've heard people say Dr. J was the Jordan before Jordan
i've heard people say Oscar Robertson was the Jordan before Jordan

there's reason nobody is saying Jordan is the Oscar Robertson after Oscar Robertson, tbh

[DMC]

Lol 20 years from now everybody will forget about Phelps

You can't say the same for Ruth, Ali or MJ

No true. No one forgot about the guy Phelps eclipsed... what's his name.

Tiger who? I'm talking about being a WORLDWIDE ICON known to billions and billions. I'm talking about picking a random bum off the streets in Kabul, Berne, Cairo, Tokyo and asking them if they know the person. tiger

MOST of the world would think Tiger is Barak Obama on a golf outing and Lebron some random African Rebel Leader.

MOST of the world knows exactly who Jordan is.

Phelps is the most decorated Olympian in world history you're going to hear his name every time the summer Olympics comes around and he'll be the gold standard until someone out-does him.

did you pull all that out of your own ass? or somebody else's?

sure Phelps and Ruth are nobodies when it comes to world stage.

Ali is still loved tbh and given there are still no great heavyweights, he will still be known as the greatest boxer ever. Same thing for MJ imo

[hater]

did you pull all that out of your own ass? or somebody else's?

it's pretty logical. Almost NOBODY watches golf, we are talking world stage now don't forget. Almost NOBODY watches NBA.

now that that's settled the question is how did ppl get to know Michael Jordan then? well IMO his popularity within the US just exploded outwards and infected pretty much any other country that watched US pop culture. That's it, Jordan went beyond the pop culture barrier. That mixed in with the dominance of Nike and the Dream Team back then made for a perfect storm.

Lebron has yet to even smell any of that.

wake me up when wild tribes in the sahara are sporting Lebrons

so your ass. k.

so your ass. k.

you fail to see the logic? where?

[Juggity]

Jordan sold his soul to be the greatest basketball player of all time. The guy has no moral compass, would probably kill a man if it meant he could win another NBA le. That's what it took to be the greatest, and he was willing to do it.

[spurraider21]

the part where you act like you know the mindset of tribal africans

Ruth hasn't swung a bat since the 30s and his name is STILL recognized. As far as Phelps the Olympics is the biggest athletic stage in the world and Phelps is the most decorated athlete in history on that very stage so I don't know what you're talking about.

in the world stage? not sure I agree. I'm not even sure Babe is more popular than the candy bar

As far as Phelps the Olympics is the biggest athletic stage in the world and Phelps is the most decorated athlete in history on that very stage so I don't know what you're talking about.

I guess we are having different understanding of the "world stage". I'm talking any joe off the street anywhere in the world. carry on then

[RsxPiimp]

yah you'd think Jordan's compe iveness and intimidation would improve that Bobcats team

that's proof that these quoting and dramatization is mostly hyperinflated BS in order to sell books

The Bobcats franchise demise is actually proof that Jordan's compe iveness and intimidation still exists. No one in his front office dares questions his ty transactions for years.

The only person Alpha enough to tell mike to off was Old man Abe Pollin telling Mj he's fired after using his name to somewhat make the Wizards franchise relevant even for just a few seasons

curious what you mean by sold his soul....

i'm curious of how you've gotten to the point where you are inside the mind of average joes off the street everywhere in the world

I do my share of travel all over the world homes. By being there and talking to the locals it's pretty easy to find out what hot and what's not.

so you've spoken to african tribal people and asked them about tiger woods and lebron james?

[lefty]

Phelps is the most decorated Olympian in world history you're going to hear his name every time the summer Olympics comes around and he'll be the gold standard until someone out-does him.

lol Carl Lewis or Serguei Bubka, even with less medals, are more notorious today than Phelps


And Forsbury is a trademark name
