Jordan threw fits just like LeBron did, the difference is

Jordan got mad but he didn't flop around like a toddler and whine like crazy.

Oh so Jordan was better at complaining about officiating than LeBron. Got it.

Basically, if LeBron does it, Jordan did it better.

Find me a video of him rolling on the floor pouting.

He got ejected in a game for making contact with a ref

RockyBalboa

I never saw MJ throw a temper tantrum or pout

slatecoug

1/30/23 2:23pm

He did.

RockyBalboa

In your opinion

slatecoug

1/30/23 2:52pm

It's a historically factually correct statement. Not an opinion.

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 3:00pm

The fact you are trying to compare the two shows how historically inaccurate that statement is.

slatecoug

1/30/23 3:08pm

Its okay for you to believe something that is wrong. A lot of people on here do.

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 3:12pm

Wrong like what you are promoting right now?

slatecoug

1/30/23 3:20pm

No he just freaked out, bumped a ref and got tossed from a game is all

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 3:38pm

So you are basing your opinion on a one time event compared to Lebron's consistent tantrums over his entire career?

slatecoug

1/30/23 3:44pm

LeBron is def a drama queen. No doubt about it.

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 3:58pm

So what you re saying is MJ played before social media...got it

Wasn't in public and wasn't crying while pounding the floor. Love is blind isn't it?

Jordan was a far bigger toddler against the Jazz

I have never seen a player react this. It was embarrassing.

Missed call in a regular season game still going to OT w/ a 13th place WC team.

Corn Pop

1/30/23 11:42am

Lakers have had four games decided on missed calls in the last 2 weeks

Huge Manatee

1/30/23 11:51am

Or just be good enough that it doesn't matter what the refs do? Be good enough

Waluigi

1/30/23 12:04pm

Maybe, but saying it doesn't matter because they are 13th is pretty disengenuous

Huge Manatee

1/30/23 12:25pm

He took like 5 steps on his way to the rim…

Absolutely gut wrenching that the 13th place WC team still had a chance in OT.

Corn Pop

1/30/23 11:44am

I suspect LeBron has benefited from calls more often than not.

Eddie

1/30/23 11:46am

LeBron is 3rd in the league in shots around the rim and 20th in FTA. I suspect you do not know what you're talking about

scootsy

1/30/23 11:50am

Oops, I was waaay off. He is 2nd in the league in shots around the rim and 29th(!!!) in FTA.

It was a joke, your first post was wrong. My reply was a joke

BYUheaven

1/30/23 12:25pm

I do find it interesting though in the screenshots you gave that Zion is number

BYUheaven

1/30/23 12:27pm

Zion also has 248 fta…he does average significantly more per game

PHXSUNS31

1/30/23 12:48pm

Seriously? NBA is a star driven league. Everyone knows it. It isn't a secret.

Eddie

1/30/23 11:58am

I don’t think your statement is wrong…time and reputation matter

PHXSUNS31

1/30/23 12:21pm

I'm absolutely sure it's driven by subconscious bias.

Eddie

1/30/23 12:29pm

He definitely does at times, but he’s also kind of unique

PHXSUNS31

1/30/23 12:44pm

I don't know if you watched the whole game. If you did, you'd not call it a fit.

byucougarsbig12

1/30/23 1:31pm

If an athlete behaves acts like a 9 yr old girl I call that a fit.

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 1:47pm

Agree .. in this case he was justified. This was way beyond bad calls. This was

byucougarsbig12

1/30/23 2:08pm

come on now. he got angry, but rolling around on the floor throwing a tantrum?

vabeachcoug

Jordan whined all the time. Most of the greats did.

RockyBalboa

1/30/23 3:00pm

LeBron carries the ball and travels...doesn't get called
