John Paxson was so underrated. He was the reason double-teaming Michael Jordan was a bad idea. He can hit the outside shot, knows his role, and doesn't turn the ball over.

That why I think it’s so disrespectful when these young nba fans talk about the older teams like the bulls and act as if today’s guys are worlds ahead of them. Draymond saying they would beat the 98 team by 40. I Think today’s league is a little less talented, since the league diminished the defenses ability to defend.

Difference between Jordan and Lebron. Jordan knew his job and did it well, and when it was time for his teammates to step up to make big plays/shots they did because they knew they had to be ready because that moment was going to come eventually. Lebron forces his teammates to stand around and wait for him to drive and kick so he can inflate his assists, then when it’s crunch nobody knows what to do, including Lebron. Down one in the greatest finals game Lebron will ever have with Curry switched on him and what does he do?Let George Hill decide the game at the line. It’s not the “right basketball play” it was Lebron being scared on the biggest stage which is what happens more often then not.

Quite sensible. Paxson scoring 10 of the last 12 points in the 4th quarter of a finals clincher had nothing to do with a role player coming through, it was just Jordan being a great teammate. The Paxson winner in 93? That was all Jordan too (even though Pippen made the right read to kick it out before the ball reversal). The Kerr shot in 97? That was all Michael. Pippen's series-clinching steal? You guessed it, Michael did that. But when the occasion arises that a teammate of LeBron makes a shot (like, A shot) at any big moment in any big game, that's just his teammates doing everything for him. Got it, perfect logic.
