Roy Williams told my brother that Michael Jordan was the most competitive person he has ever been around, and it wasn't even close. George Karl told me something similar and praised Jordan for his work ethic. Jordan hated to lose and that helped fuel him to outwork people. Even if it was ping pong, golf or cards. When he left North Carolina for the NBA he was not a polished public speaker. He actually hired people help him to clean up his English and come across more professional. His combination of drive, toughness, competitiveness & athletic ability is unmatched IMHO. Shaq, Kareem & even Lebron had god given physical abilities for their size that I feel led to much of their success. The NBA is littered with 6-5 Guards who can jump. Heck Jordan had a crappy 3 Pt shot when he came out of college.

Heard a story recently from Chuck that MJ told Chuck to restructure his deal with Nike. Chuck was getting $3mm/yr in cash, MJ told him to go for $1mm/yr cash, $2mm/yr in Nike stock. Nike traded for about $2 in '92, it's trading at $126 ish today. Even if the story Chuck told was an approximation, that tip was worth hundreds of millions.

his latest account I'm almost certain on on.3 is called "Btighest Red", not my typo.
We'll know for certain if you disagree with him. He can't resist threatening to kill you if you have a differing opinion.

Good lord I miss the point system, though I never understood it nor did the mods even make an attempt at quantifying it for scrollers.
La Jolla would tell people in mlpfc thread but given that a mod could give you a zillion points whenever it was kinda silly

Same. I would ask in MLPFC to find out how close I was to a ban and what the duration of said ban was. For some reason they could tell you on the Main Board but couldn't tell you on RRS. 🤷‍♂️

Old Wyld has made death threats and caught a mild ban so I'm pretty sure he has some extremely compromising pictures of Dean
Dude's unhinged. He's threatened me to a fight, I gave him my address. Threatened to kill me and told me to kill myself. Yet survives and JW is told to not troll him. It's Wyld that he survives.
