MJs quote was definitely taken out of context 
Nobody currently playing is a hall of famer technically

If you watched the video, Jordan was obviously being sarcastic.

It's not like MJ has proven he's a good evaluator of talent outside of his own.

Isn't there a famous story about how he refused to take a picture with Chamillionaire?

I agree surgery is bad.Its bad enough though. Already having knee injury at the beginning of his rookie season gives me fear that Zion might be less of a LeBron, Shaq or MJ but rather a Derrick Rose
I really hope he fully recovers and won't have such injuries anymore.
I'm alluding to the pelicans initial injury report where they said 'Serious injury ruled out. Zion thought to miss a period of weeks.'
If they had said it 'possible torn meniscus, awaiting further evaliation' it would've saved fantasy players and also ppl who have bought tickets to see the Pels within the time frame Zion is in recovery, some trouble.
Their injury reporting seems shady, like they were delaying revealing how serious it was until the last possible second.
Just as a fan, I want completely transparent injury reporting.

So much for Steph's fairytale ending in Charlotte. MJ is an idiot.

I don't get the feeling he's being sarcastic at all. I don't think most people do either.

I get it, that being said, if it's based off of potential, then the contract should have been similar to Buddy Heild with incentives. I honestly think it's because Brown was the #3 pick. If we were the 20th pick, we would not have seen this number.
That's just my thought

I don't think so. I did the exact same thing with my PS4

I would shut Zion Williamson down for the season!
Get him on a new workout plan to shed bulk.

Most people in this thread are anti-Wardell, so they will believe whatever they want to believe.

It's his time. Another ring another FMVP and top 25 all time status.

Every report said they were also approaching this with an “abundance of caution.” Two months is right in line with that. I imagine he’ll return to practice well before that.
They’re going to sit him for just about anything this year.

Top 25? Think he'd have a solid top 10 argument if he leads a 3rd different franchise to a title

The regular season stats and the longevity argument will counter a lot of that. Top 25 isn't how I personally feel but I'm catering to the consensus for this one for the time being.

I'm as anti-Wardell as the next guy but I'm not gonna lie or be disingenuous. Whether you like him or not you have to respect him.
He revolutionized basketball with his high volume 3 pt shooting (he showed that a small, unathletic guard can dominate the NBA), he didn't complain about his contract when he was winning MVPs while making $10m (could have very easily made it a distraction and he didn't), he was willing to recruit and defer to another superstar (Durant) when he could have easily let his ego take over (he was coming off of a unanimous MVP for Christ's sake).
All of that is aside from his accomplishments. He's top 12 for sure. LOL at him not being a top 25 or a HOFer. Jordan is back on the sauce
