Mark Eaton went from fixing alternators to playing against the “best competition ever”. This man even made the all star game!

I’m sorry but this era of basketball is way better and it isn’t even debatable at this point.

R.I.P Eaton but c’mon man :facepalm

I mean without the NBA how many current guys who are stars would be working at a fast food place? I'd rather know I could be a plumber over a crack attick or fast food worker as many didn't go to college for long.

2 time mvp and fmvp in this era sold sourveniers from a cart. That's just how life is. Circumstance changes alot of things for these guys. You don't get scouted early enough and you end up a shrimp cart vendor in any era intil the find you, if they do.

Current reigning MVP was a sausage vendor in Belgrade. Also lebron lost to a German saxophone player. this era is currently set to rookie mode in terms of rules. MJ had to play in expert mode.

Your era produced a trinket street seller from Greece as one of the elites of his era, even winning the MVP twice :lol

Larry Bird was a Trash Man. Does that mean he can't play?

He didn't need to make it any more difficult on himself and face any centers with the likes of Lionel Hutz guarding him on the perimeter though...

You keep suggesting that Hornacek was a bad player. Which is totally false. Today's game there is no freedom for contact or handchecking and there is hardly any contested shots or rebounds like way back. Lebron is awesome but he is not better than MJ get real MJ was an alien compared to all players. Strongest guard body wise, most agil guard, quickest guard, fastest guard, most potent guard, quickest feet ever, enormous hands, best leaper ever for his size, most skilled and GOAT Mid Range shooting guard alongisde Kobe, agressive, ego maniac for wins, clutch, great rebounder for some one his size, very good passer (ocourse not on Lebron's level there) and the dude could float in the air for more seconds than any athlete i've ever seen.
