Jordan Speaks On Load Managing

[HoopsNY]

MJ stans use Bronny as an example of nepotism, yet ignore the nepotism towards MJ when he decided to play baseball.

Yet, MJ's baseball play was so bad not even nepotism could get him to AAA baseball, much less playing in the MLB.

Ouch.

Right, because the Birmingham Barons AA team is analogous to the Los Angeles Lakers.

[Hey Yo]

Bronny was a basketball player before being drafted while MJ probably hadn't swung a bat in 20yrs. If James Jr is taking a spot of a more deserving player then that easily could be said MJ did the same thing. It was nothing more than a sideshow.

Yea, that's fair. Still not analogous in terms of the magnitude. It wasn't even a Triple A team. You're not wrong, but nobody cares about a AA team or takes it that seriously. I'm sure lots of players got 10 day contracts. Heck, I remember Master P had one. Big difference to what we see with Bronny.

Intellect is not 1987_Ragdolled's strong suit. He didn't even know that AA was minor league baseball or that it's pro ball.

And he didn't know that John Stockton was a great passer. So you should expect those kinds of low IQ takes from him.

Bron fam wins again.

[3ba11]

Because he sucked.

He hadn't picked up a glove since junior high and hit .202 in double A ball

that's quite good

[1987_Lakers]

He hadn't picked up a glove since junior high and hit .202 in double A ball, and was coming on as the season wore on - that's goat athlete stuff

You're telling me MJ had not picked up a glove in over 15 years and was still signed by a baseball team?

And you same people bitch about Bronny?

LMAO

.202 is atrocious btw, probably would have batted 10 percent in the majors.

And Jordan was STILL a better baseball player than Bronny is a basketball player.

Jordan's .202 batting average is better than Bronny's field goal % this year.

Only difference is Jordan was playing against much worse competition, WNBA like.

[Full Court]

The other difference was that Jordan wasn't the worst player in the AA league.

Bronny is the worst player in the entire NBA. Truth hurts, huh?

Must be some achievement not being the worst player in the WNBA.

[Full Court]

Bronny might very well be the worst player in the WNBA too.

Jordan has trouble walking. He can no longer play ball recreationally because his body is in such bad shape. He said so recently.

Load management comes from science, from doctors understanding sports physiology.

As hardcore as Jordan was and wants to come across now, he himself would be in far better shape had he had load management.

Maybe he could even pick the ball up at 60 or whatever age he is.

There is maybe no better example of "toughness posturing" in sports as load management. Fans even want to seem "tough" by talking down load management, calling the players "weak" for using it etc. Fans often reference the past; but take a look at most of those players, their bodies are a wreck.

Nonsense. MJ has trouble walking? Where at? And MJ also gained quite a bit of weight. He’s not active in sports. Probably doesn’t weight train much. He drinks alcohol and eats more food than he used too as an athlete. You trying to pin his physical condition and health based on not load managing is hilarious.

Riddle me this. When embiid and George get to be MJ age. They will be in better shape/condition? I want to see ll these load managed athletes at MJ age walking away just fine. If anything I’d say basketball athletes when they retire are in bad shape compared to say football players. And football players don’t load manage while playing a violent sport.

Load managing is bogus. Keep making excuses tho
