I'm not disagreeing with you very much. I hear what you're saying. You can leave the talk about MJ on the bullets at home, though. It's not like he never failed...plus, he missed a bunch of game winners in his career. But it would be like saying Jack Nicklaus isn't a slam dunk as the best golfer of all time because he has the most 2nd place finishes in majors, ever.
With that being said, if there's a big game, I want him leading my squad.
If there's a last shot and a chance to win the game, I want the ball in his hands, more than likely taking that shot.
