ESPN couldn’t help themselves, it was all you heard about for weeks.
This is how ESPN tries to create narratives and frankly, it’s pathetic.
Do they not feel shame??
Just like it was when it was suggested that Ant was on an MJ pace last year.
At age 26-27 (SGA’s age), MJ was averaging 33+ points a night.
In the playoffs, it was 36.7 points a game.
SGA has 1 playoff series win in his entire career.
This is the problem with doing shit like this.
One of the best seasons by a guard we’ve ever seen, no question about it.
Why can’t it just be left at that?
What is this obsession with trying to make everyone Michael Jordan 2.0?
We don’t even do that with LeBron and he’s probably the closest we actually have!
What happened to ya know….actually having to accomplish things for be even considered in that comparison?
So much is made about the NBA product and what’s wrong with it.
It’s the media landscape and how the league is covered.
It’s how the game is talked about on national TV networks.
It’s all narrative-driven bullshit that as a viewer, is insulting to watch.
They are not MJ, they will never be MJ.
Nobody is and will be, that’s why he’s MJ.
With Ant and SGA already getting the comparison, who do we think is next?
