By the time of his second retirement guys that had been in the league for more than a couple of years who had played against MJ knew what the deal was. You typically kept your mouth shut and didn't try and provoke him. Fear or respect. Call it what you want but when your nickname is Black Jesus you are getting a whole lot of both.

Magic and Bird were already washed up and on their way out as Jordan was entering his prime. That's before he won any rings except for his first so of course they didnt fear him. They both basically gave him that #1 title after that ash though. That's just resspect.
Shaq in a whole other position so he was never pressed to face Jordan like that. He definitely has said himself he feared being posterizied by Jordan.
Zeke couldn't get sleep thinking about Jordan. That's past fear.

Lebron's leadership revolves on sneak dissing to the media & social media
Jordan's leadership revolves on letting a MF know right to his face
just one of the many reason that MJ>>>>>Bron
don't @ me

steph curry would've quit basketball back in the day
he is very talented but can only play in this no contact version of the nba
imagine the calls iverson would get in this era of basketball

mj would never

Yall still with this nonsense
. Live look at All NBA/ALL Star guard Mark price getting busy in that era....and you don’t think Steph should? Lmao.Steph’s Dad was the same size as Steph....with LITTLE handle, and less range... and was a 6MOTY and a good player for a long time.
Steph would be Steph in any era. Bron would be Bron in any era. They aren’t soft, they are all time greats.
MJ is better than Bron, simply because he’s a better player. Not because of any era bs y’all spill. The “old school” vs “new school” era bs has to stop. Y’all lack any nuance.

jape
here is Wilt and Bill Russell talking about averaging 60-70ppg in the 80s & 90s because the nba is “too soft” because of “rule changes to help the offense (4:50 mark). Also said the 60s has better athletes .Here is Wilt again calling 90s nba soft.
This happens decade after decade. Even the early 00s guys, who were getting sht-Ed on by the previous generation for being flashy etc, are the ones now sht-ing on players of the present.
The reality is...The players in every era were elite. The players today are advanced and elite. The pace/game and some rules have fluctuated over the years...but the game is the game. The best dominate in their eras. That’s how it goes. Calling MJ era guys “plumbers” is equally as stupid as suggesting that nba players of today couldn’t make it in the past. Both are mind numbingly terrible, thoughtless takes.
