Remember when 34-35 year old MJ was more dominant than 2000 Shaq?

The stats show that old MJ scored a far higher proportion of his teams points than prime Shaq, especially in the 4th... (Shaq had twice the rebounds and blocks, but MJ had twice the assists and steals, so we're left with the scoring shown above).

These stats shouldn't be a surprise - think about it - in 1997 and 1998, Shaq was in his prime too, but you never heard about Shaq - MJ was the best player in the game.. He won MVP in 1998 over Shaq.. He also destroyed the Jazz in 1997 and 1998 Finals, while Shaq's Lakers lost 4-1 and 4-0 to the same Jazz..

And Shaq's 1997 and 1998 Lakers were stacked to the brim - in 1997, they had all-star Eddie Jones, Van Exel, Cedric Ceballos, Robert Horry, Elden Campbell (15/8 and 1.5 blk), and rookie Kobe (8 ppg in 16 minutes).. But they were destroyed 4-1 by the Utah Jazz in ECSF... Jordan went on to dominate the Jazz in the Finals, with the game-winner in Game 1, the game-winner in Game 5 (flu game), and the series-winning assist to Kerr in Game 6 (which spear-headed Kerr's career).

In 1998, Shaq's 4 all-star Lakers (Van Exel, Eddie Jones, Kobe) were FAR more talented than the Jordan's old Bulls, but were swept AGAIN by the Utah Jazz.. Once again, MJ ripped the Jazz's heart out in the Finals, despite Pippen's 15 ppg on 41% and Rodman's horrific 4/8 averages (his old, washed-up ass wasn't even a starter).

Alright now you're just literally repeating yourself. I feel bad for you, man. It can be tough to get out of comfort zones and to learn to conquer fixations, but it is possible. Sure, I'm an anonymous dude on the internet, but I hope you at least consider the possibility of doing these things.

You should see this guy's Michael Jordan archive on his computer:

[LIST][*]a folder for photoshopped dick pics[*]a folder for essays[*]a folder for .gifs[*]...it goes on.[/LIST]

He's linked countless YouTube videos with time marks just to show MJ plays. Like multi-hour long videos and he has them all marked down exactly. He always has them on demand. I can't imagine how many notes and stats this guy keeps for this.

by the look at your join date, you've been "fixated" on being an anonymous dude on the internet a lot longer than me... 4 years longer.

i hope you can get some help soon bud... 7 years... yikes

In comparison to a nut case that can't help himself? He's fine. Why not show everyone the notes for how many thousand posts and accounts you've devoted to your drug of choice trainwreck? Didn't think so.

And to the topic 3 words:

Your literally defending an anonymous poster who you don't know... He could be a child molester - we know he's had an online fixation for at least 7 years.

What context?... The data speaks for itself.

In 2000, Kobe averaged 15 ppg on 35% in 2000 Finals - amazingly, that's worse than Pippen's 15 ppg on 41% in 1998 Finals - so Kobe was providing LESS help than Pippen, but Shaq was still scoring a far lower proportion of his team's points than MJ.

34-35 year old MJ was simply much more dominant than Shaq... Deal with it without coming to the defense of potential child molesters.

[LAZERUSS]

No I don't recall that, because it simply was not true.

A 2000 Shaq was FAR more dominant than a 34-35 year old MJ, and nothing you have shown proves anything different.

Nor, am I going to waste my time constantly destroying these ridiculous assertions of your's.

A 2000 Shaq >>>> a 34-35 year old Jordan.

Just deal with it and move on to some other MJ vs whoever topic you want to start.

[SexSymbol]

I'd choose MJ for the deciding game at age 34-35.
But Shaq 00 overall was definitely better and had better seasons.

You have to admit he is the GOAT MJ archivist. If I want to know what MJ had for dinner on March 17 1996 3ball will have it.

[KobesFinger]

I look at the stats. In all of them, Jordan has a higher usage rate and higher percentage of his team's FGA. So theres that
