That’s not what I said. You can’t follow a line of argument here. I stated that having a broken foot is not the same as being out of basketball and doing another sport for 2 years.
Can we let Nomar Garciaparra weigh in? Not a broken foot, but was never the same after he was hurt.
Oh lord what a hodgepodge tosort through here. First, a broken foot usually takes 6-8 weeks to heal. Referencing an arm injury like TJ that requires surgery and around a year of rehab is hardly the same thing. My brother is a professional pitcher and has had TJ twice. Oddly enough, you mention Harvey, whom I know personally. It wasn’t just TJ but TOS surgery as well. And he hasn’t really come back from that.
Maybe you weren't aware but the season ends in September in the minors and doesn't start up again until Feb/March for ST. close to 6 months. You thinking he was on his couch eating bon bons?
Maybe you weren’t aware of the Arizona Fall league where Jordan actually showed out pretty well. He then took a couple of months off where he still focused on baseball. Players report to Spring Training in February. On March 10th, Jordan played his last minor league game. On March 18th, he was back on the court for the Bulls.
Write this down somewhere though.....18 real games to get ready. Double what they get in the preseason to get ready for the season.
Nah, making you look foolish is easy. I just know they’d appreciate these stupid takes.

@dtgold88 amd @hailtoyourvictor are amazing trolls or ate way too many paint chips as a kid. Either way, this is a lot of fun.
Assuming I'm OP you refer to I would say no. Never mind not what we were discussing.
and each has been able to smack you around with logic, facts and reason and didn't have to cry for help.
Do you realize athletes train in an offseason to prepare for their craft. They don't just SHOW UP at preseason and say, let's go. Jordan trained for baseball. After the 95 season he then spent the entire offseason training for basketball and came back to win 72 regular season games and a championship. You clearly aren't very bright.
So you are thinking never touched a basketball for 2 years? 18 regular season games and 4 playoff games just not enough for MJ to be ready for another series? And you think that's our GOAT?
People like you love to run your mouths about how players today are so much better do to training, sports science, medicine etc etc,. Then when it is pointed out that MJ was playing baseball all of 95 and prior and he had trained his body to be a baseball player that when he switched over to basketball his body was not in the proper conditioning, you act as if it is complete nonsense. Do you realize that the muscle training and conditioning for basketball is way different than how an athlete would train for baseball? If you are incapable of seeing this, then it can be clearly written off as you being a total moron and move on.
He doesn’t. That’s what’s incredible. I was hoping it was a clever troll but he’s just not very smart. He mentions the broken foot year and I point out Broken foot is entirely different than not playing basketball for 2 years. He disagrees. I should stop engaging him because at best, he’s willfully ignorant and at worst, really dumb.
Someone argued Lebron has better stats. I said they’re comparable and the PER suggest MJ was better.
People like me? You mean rational and objective people who can see both sides of a discussion and don't need to call on the cavalry to help me? People who base their comments on the post, and not the poster?
Great.....but Lebron's first season was at 19 after playing against HS players. Not 21 after playing against college players. Better call your buddies.
translation - "I cannot refute anything you said"
Oh there is nothing to refute. You are clueless as to what you are talking about and nothing said will make you any more capable of comprehension. That's why I said carry on.
You get we are talking about an opinion, right? Nothing factual.
Ya know someone is in trouble when he has to call for backup. Maybe the backup has backup.
How could they form the opinions based on the poster when they’ve never interacted with you before? They’re literally responding to the content of your posts.
Really? They are forming their opinion based on you. Not me. If we were arguing the color of the sky and I said it was blue and you said black, you'd still phone a friend and they'd help you. comical, really
You mean my opinions you/they cannot refute with facts? Might as well laugh when there isn't much else they can do
Why are you dying on this hill? He did baseball for 2 years. He was inserted into a bad Bulls team with a lot of different players from the first 3-peat. That’s why it was hard for him comeback and win.
Bad Bulls' team? They were a .500 team with no MJ. You are probably the only one who thinks this Cavs team would win many more than 30 with no Lebron. And of course that bad Bulls team won 55 the previous season.
