I don't fully agree wit Chris but I see where he's comin from. AI had a huge influence on basketball, he was like everybody's favorite player and everybody wanted to be like him for a time. Its probably closer than you think. -
Michael JordanClose this damn thread.

Michael Jordan
MJ influenced the world.
AI influenced the hood. -

Bruh... how old ars you? -
Michael JordanChris Paul made a ridiculous ass statement, let's not debate this just for the sake of having a debate. Let's just all agree that this is one of the dumbest comments any athlete has ever made.

Michael JordanYou what? (Jay Z voice)

Allen IversonAI made me want to play basketball. Not once did I see Jordan play and think, "yo I want to do that." If it wasn't for AI, I wouldn't give a ? about basketball on any level.

Michael Jordani think he meant under the influence

Michael JordanI ? with AI (even tho I always knew Kobe was better) I remember begging pops to buy us the first NBA 2K on dreamcast specifically because he was on the cover. That said...

Cosign these dudes just posting to get reactions. Maybe he was so big to me because I only chill with my people (by choice) and AI was THE NBA player for us. When he bopped the ? out of Jordan, it was the passing of the torch lol.numbaz...80's baby wrote: »Say what?
What influence did AI have though?
Crossover? Tim Hardaway
Attitude? Bad Boys
Scoring PG? .......
Braids? That's just about it

-Black people are developing our own culture, which translates to our own point of views. A lot of us would choose AI over Jordan. Just like most of us will choose Nas over Tupac or JayZ. White amerikkka is the one that pushes Jordan, JayZ, and Pac so hard. .. Some may say different, because they're afraid of the backlash, but they have to be willing to stand on their own and not buckle under the groupthink pressure that the masses push on everyone. We're individuals and AI represented that. With that said, I'll take AI over Jordan ANY DAY OF THE WEEK and not think twice.
-TH's crossover is some "better basketball" ? , don't nobody use that ? . AI's made it mainstream and his ? was simple, yet crazy effective. It was so effective that they started saying it was all of sudden carrying the ball. Probably because he embarrassed the ? out of Jordan with it, and was impossible to guard with that ? .
-His attitude wasn't on no bad boy ? , it was on some I'm going to do me and do it my way ? . That's huge for someone of his status. Nowadays all you have is PC subliminal ? . -
Michael JordanDead @ white amerikkka pushin Pac

Allen Iverson, 2pac, and Lil Wayne destroyed generations of black men.

Michael JordanAI popularity lead to record low tv ratings and game attendance. I see to ignant ? in the hood why he appeal to them but thats it.
