How could you not handle the pressure of being drafted? I Don't understand.

Re: Len Bias or Michael Jordan?

Re: Len Bias or Michael Jordan?
Len Bias would have been playing for the Celtics so he would have had a chance to get some rings. The answer is unknown though since he was supposed to be more explosive than Jordan and a good shooter. Still, it would have been doubtful that he would have become as good as Jordan if he was doing hard drugs.

Re: Len Bias or Michael Jordan?
Alrite, my last post on the subject. A truly great article from Bill Simmons on the effect Bias had on him. If anyone cannot view it, PM me and I'll send you the article.

Re: Len Bias or Michael Jordan?
College, High school.. NBA.
Just because a player dominated one competion, doesnt automatically mean he will dominate the NBA. Where strategistic coaches plan to stop specific types of players and plays.
heck, even Michael Jordan, the way he played in high school, college... doesnt reflect how he played in the NBA... its like an exponential improvement!.. which is an understatement.

Dude, if you hate it so much...leave. I'm not saying he was better than Mike, just asking for opinions on what they thought of him as a player. Message Boards are here for enterainment. Who says we have to live up to SeaNet's bar of what should and shouldn't be posted? Get the McDonald's arch out of your ***, and treat others with respect and stop being so condescending. The sad thing is, you think you know more about the game then others here, and for the most part...you couldn't be farther from the truth. I literally think everyone on this entire site HATES you. Take that as you may...
