Mikey's accolades are comparable to Hondo, that's why it's sad he was the supposed UNQUESTIONED GOAT for so long.



"These days LeBron James' high school exploits are getting more hype than Jordan's final games in Washington."-2002

"Every morning, Greg would wake up, eyes filled with fervor, and rush to his computer... Greg couldn't let go of his obsession. As his daily routine unfolded – constructing arguments, engaging in debates, and defending LeBron's legacy – a darker thought began to manifest."

In a small apartment in the heart of a basketball-crazed town, lived a man named Greg who was utterly consumed by his admiration for LeBron James. Greg was not just a fan; he was an obsessive aficionado, and his day revolved around constructing impassioned arguments online to establish LeBron as the undisputed "G.O.A.T" – the greatest of all time.

Every morning, Greg would wake up, eyes filled with fervor, and rush to his computer. He scoured forums, social media platforms, and basketball websites to engage in heated debates. Armed with statistics, accolades, and memorable moments, he tirelessly defended LeBron's greatness, determined to convince the world that the King had surpassed all predecessors, including the legendary Michael Jordan.

However, Greg harbored a secret. Deep down, he knew the historical significance of Michael Jordan's career and the indelible impact he had on the game of basketball. Despite his public declarations, in the quiet moments of reflection, Greg couldn't deny the fact that Jordan was, in his heart of hearts, the true "G.O.A.T."

Yet, Greg couldn't let go of his obsession. As his daily routine unfolded – constructing arguments, engaging in debates, and defending LeBron's legacy – a darker thought began to manifest. What if there was a way to alter the narrative, even just in his own mind?

Driven by this unsettling notion, Greg delved into the world of unconventional research. He scoured ancient texts, obscure websites, and sought out mysterious shops in the corners of his city. His mission: to construct a voodoo doll that would somehow curse Michael Jordan and shift the balance in LeBron's favor.

As Greg spent nights fumbling with needles, strings, and small effigies, he couldn't shake the feeling that he was treading on dangerous ground. The obsession that once fueled his passion for basketball now manifested in an unsettling desire to rewrite history, even if only in his imagination.

One day, as Greg examined the completed voodoo doll, a wave of realization washed over him. The dark path he had chosen was not a solution but a distortion of his love for the game. In a moment of clarity, he dismantled the doll, letting go of the misguided attempt to alter basketball history.

From that day forward, Greg redirected his passion into a more positive outlet. He continued to celebrate LeBron's accomplishments, but now, with an added layer of humility and respect for the legends who came before. As he engaged in debates online, he no longer sought to curse Jordan but rather acknowledged the greatness that defined basketball across generations.

Every time I post an MJ memory you get irate but never directly respond to it. Just passive aggressive shaming everytime. Truth has a way of making a mutha fucka shut the fuck up or deflect when they can't respond.

Why are you so consumed with keeping lies going? You're not ashamed of being a dishonest person?

Sometimes I feel bad for Wemby..it's like being in a dark alley by yourself ready to get jumped
Spurs could have lost by 50+ today at home if the Celtics did put in players 11-15 from the bench in the 3rd quarter

Final
Celtics 134
Spurs 101

I think Wemby had zero rebounds in the first half. Tallest person in the state couldn't get a single rebound.

you are right! Porzingis and Horford kept pushing him out.
Wemby is so easy to keep out of the paint if you push him out.
Then on offense, he spends his time on the 3-point line so he gets no offensive rebounds.
But the Spurs need a lot of help offensively.

The Pistons play way better than the Spurs but have a worse record

Magic settling for threes.

We were right there the whole game then just went ice cold.
