When Michael Jordan dies, will he get the same treatment as MJ?

[icyyyesr two3]

not even close...especially if he lives to a ripe old age

 

[queencitysneakerqueen]

i doubt it

 

[you big dummy]

I was actually thinking about this earlier.

There's actually a couple of people I can see having a similar treatment


Prince
Madonna

I was thinking about this yesterday. and would the price on Jordans go up?

Yep, if Mike dies at 85 it won't be that big of a deal. Jackson only really got all this attention because he was young, rehearsing for toursand died suddenly.

It also isn't uncommon.

I'd say 'not even close' to Prince, but Madonna may be like this.

However, like Dirty said earlier about Jordan, only if Madonna were to die all of a sudden, like Jackson did.

Barack Obama's funeral won't be as big as Michael Jacksons

that's because presidents usually fade into obscurity by the time they've died. when you're 70, 80 years old your death is expected.


but if Obama died right NOW? the entire world would be frozen in time.

No way I a mean aside from people who watch basketball who would care. Michael was worldwide his music was still playing. I mean other then niketalk I dontthink they would even have a memorial for him.

Co-sign.. But it will still be big. No doubt.

 

[ballinamillion1]

NO WAY, BUT OPRAH on the other hand would come close!

 

[kickinheadz1010]

MJack>>>>> Any current human walking this earth.

No one could even dream up of a life story and impact comparable to his.

 

[dathbgboy]

Only in the JB forum, gon have a massive Suicide Watch for those cats in there.

But I don't see it. Jacko gave so much to the world financially and musically. MJ just gave athletically and somewhat financially. Also heard he was an@!++%!$. the latter MJ (R.I.P.) was a genuine, kind-hearted person.

Soooooooooooooooooo............nope, not happenin

 

[jesusr23]

nope not at all

 

[ninjahood]

it'll be BIG.........but jackson's is as big its gonna get..

Besides, Jordan has no real connection with his fans on a personal level.

word.. my MJ encounter sucked

 

[skip2mylou23]

I don't think so but it will still be pretty big.

[dagreatj]

What about the Jay-Z....

 

[aubstuh86]

i love basketball and im a huge fan, but i probably wont give 2 $!*** if jordan dies, no offense to any fans on here.

doesnt strike me as a humanitarian or a philanthropist and his brand is like propaganda with all that bs "for the love of the game" slogan.

yes he is the greatest basketball player of all time but i prefer kobe.

 

[ev209]

i dont even think it will be as close at to jacksons death

 

[dagreatj]

First off Jordan didn't do anything beyond play basketball very and bang White Girls....

 

[airuphere23]

Jordan would have a big impact if he were to pass away at an untimely age. I hope that never comes to pass, at least anytime soon. But definitely not as big asMichael Jackson passing away unexpectedly.

Both are one of a kind, but Michael Jackson was unrivaled to anyone before or after him since. With Jordan, some idiots say Kobe.

 

[gaseousfashion]

Nothing will compare to the sudden death of Micheal Jackson.

 

[the north west]

not even close
