Just imagine how LeBron would`ve reacted :eek:
He`d hang `em up that day. :lol

;)

[Haymaker]

I don't understand how Knight never got punched by a player. He pushed their buttons and then some. Hell of a coach though. One of the best.

[Ca$H]

What Jordan did to Kwame was much worse than what Knight did to him.

[Smoke117]

what a bitch :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Fire Colangelo]

Lebron probably would've gotten him fired instead of crying like a bitch

[MintBerryCrunch]

LeBron at the same age was a better player, so Knight would have not responded this way in the first place.

Mike was probably having flashbacks of being cut from his highschool team. :oldlol: Not the least bit surprised he took it to heart.

Makes you wonder what else was swept under the rug during Jordan's playing career, tho.

His father.

His father.

That's a well known conspiracy though. The question is whether its fact or fiction. :confusedshrug:

[OldSchoolBBall]

Bobby Knight also said during the 1984 Olympics that if Jordan doesn't get injured, that he would go down as the greatest player to ever play the game. That's a 21 year old Jordan he's saying that about. Think about that.

I don't think his style would be effective with todays' generation. Unless he had huge control over the organization like Pop.

I meant literally.

[SexSymbol]

i don't think I've seen a single well-covered player by the media who hasn't cried

Not the most covered player, but Oakley didn't even cry as a baby. I'm sure of it.

Michael Jordan also cried like a bitch after he got his father killed.

:rolleyes:

[Da_Realist]

A non-story only kids can love. Who cares? He cried when he won his first championship. He cried after winning on Father's Day in 96. He cried at his Hall of Fame induction. So what?

if someone doesnt cry when their dad gets killed, id think somethings wrong with him.

Why even respond to that? He's just looking for attention by being an ass. Ignore it.
