Olajuwan was the 1st pick while MJ went number 3, both are now hall of famers, but knowing what we know now who do you take first?

    Generally speaking you usually build a team with a big man but there are a few exceptions to that rule. Micheal Jordan happens to be one of those exceptions.

    Jordan wasnt that deal in college yes he has a couple of highlight plays. Chicago didnt know they were gonna get this MJ when they drafted him. Not know what jordan turned into you gotta take a big man. You see who won it his two years in retirement. Whe jordan was drafted big men ruled the game. Houston couldnt have known that guy was gonna revolutionize the game. So taking the big man was logical at that time. Im a jordan fan. I would have hated if all jordan came in red whit and yellow. red and black are my favorite colors.

    The reason why I made the thread is because there are people that would still take Hakeem. So it's not as obvious as some would think. BTW Jordan was playing on the Bulls during Hakeem's second championship and he beat the team the Magic team that knocked off Jordan's Bulls in the playoffs.

    Dean Smith held Jordan back alot, if Smith let Jordan play to his potential Jordan would of won player of the year all three years in college; best believe that. Smith wanted none of that flashy ? and didn't want freshmen to start.
