Jordan's vertical was 10 inches higher than Dinwiddie's

For more added context, the basement OP never leaves is 2 Jordan jumps below the ground

Pat Connaughton is 6'5 and has a higher vertical than both Michael Jordan and Dinwiddie. So if they are god what do you call this guy?

He's right about Kareem though. Kareem is the undisputed GOAT among basketball players. He has an argument for the GOAT NBA player too.

Can somebody post highlights of Dinwiddie doing something similar to MJ on the court with his 6"6 frame and 40inch vert. From what I have seen there is ZERO evolution in anything Dinwiddie does on the basketball court

Vertical jump is measured by standing in one place and leaping straight up. This is not how you jump in a real game of basketball, that is why Dinwiddie and Cunningham can't do 1% of things MJ could do in a real game situation.

There is a lot more to being Jordan than just an alleged vert. I realize that this thread is just more nonsense trolling but it should be pointed out that however high his vert was Jordan had an overall athletic ability that would have translated to numerous other sports a 6'11 wingspan and a nearly-perfect skill set for a shooting guard of his era (some of you may not reallize that there is a lot more to skills than a highly-developed three). Spencer Dinwiddie, like most modern guards, does one thing better than MJ: Three pointers. In no other area is he comparable to Jordan. 40 inch vertical? Ok, that's nice. You know why Kobe Bryant was dunking on guys well into his 30s, why Paul Pierce caught so many guys over the course of his career, or conversely why you can remember Gerald Green and Harold Miner in Dunk Contests but never saw them become great players?

Even if a guy can jump he has to have the skills in ballhandling, footwork, balance, strength...to finish strong in traffic. I will go ahead and assume that Dinwiddie has a 40 inch vert. He is nowhere near any discussion of great in-game dunkers (or great dunkers period) because he doesn't have the necessary combination to pull that kind of play off regularly in games. Dinwiddie actually has a good skillset for a player but he doesn't have anywhere near Jordan's combination of basketball talents and to act otherwise is just foolishness.

Lastly...

Someone show me a picture of Dinwiddie doing anything like that, please. Be it in a game, at practice, a high school dunk contest, somebody's backyard...wherever. I just want to see this.

MJ was scoring champ and top 7 DPOY from 88-98'

That's goat individual domination

And 6/6 is goat team ceiling

So he was goat on every level (individual and team success, with the least help (see previous post)

There’s no argument, he is the GOAT. It’s not debatable.


Jordan is the NBA GOAT but Kareem and Lebron make it debatable. There is no debate for the GOAT basketball player.

High school
3 state championships
79-2 record. 72 wins straight and put to an end because the opposing coach with the 2nd best team in the nation triple teamed Kareem the whole game

College
3 NCAA championships
88-2 record

NBA
Won't bore you with the accolades
Made the 1st Team ALL NBA at 39 years old.

No one touches Kareem's basketball career

People always talk about Jordan's leaping ability but his speed was elite. John Wall was supposed to be the fastest player in the NBA (he wasn't) but Jordan was faster than him. I think of the big name players only Derrick Rose and Monta Ellis were faster than Jordan and they were shorter players. You combine that speed AND vertical, you get one of the best hang times in history, if not the best. Jordan the athlete was like a Russell Westbrook with the same motor and speed who could jump higher, had a much better standing reach and had much bigger hands. His body was god tier.

These players should understand where/how their bread is buttered and have some more respect for those who paved the way for them - so ungrateful.
