Well that is different time lines, right. Rookie Pip first and then rookie nba HC PJ.
2) Makes a lot more sense than blaming LeBron for ADs development. Also it seems few understand probabilities and percentages.
LOL, more like spoken like a true nba2K participant. It's always easy to sniff out the couch coaches who have no real life experience.
3) Your statement has nothing to do with LeBron vs Jordan's leadership styles. Stop losing the plot.
Sorry Dad. Now are you allowed to give me a time out or is it your parents fault for not supporting you enough when you were younger?
4)Aka the market having more participants now means the level of due diligence required to having a market-moving book has increased, and there are less blind spots now that funds can take advantage of. Another Blackrock will never rise in our lifetimes because Larry Fink came into power with the first and most dominant AI based super algo in Aladdin. Now everyone has proprietary algos and AI. It requires an intelligent brain to be able to properly contextualize the circumstances of different eras.
Well at least you're partly right here. It also means couch coaches can now watch a tiktok video and think that they can become an expert in trading leaving retail broke or holding the bag. The concept hasn't changed but just the ability to target more humans. And the fundementals in trading and of the companies you invest in haven't really changed at all over the decades. This is also why many of the 'intelligent brains' are left in the back offices only.
5) No s*** Sherlock. It's only nincompoop Jordan fans that think the NBA went backwards in development
Lol, this is cute. You haven't disappointed me yet. Well done!
6) The fact that the entirety of this rebuttal is crying about RAPM and making some strange nonsensical point about practicing. As if LeBron is known for skipping practice when it's a bit more well known Jordan was afforded opportunities to skip whenever he shot commercials.
No, no, let's not get this confused. You're far too intelligent to simply try to easily sweep this aside with your clever word play. And for the record, your writing style is far more MJ leadership style to me then LBJ's. It's actually having me check my spelling because of the standard and word tone you're keeping right now. So, we do know that it's important for LBJ to be liked and seen as a great teammate just like we've also seen him rattled, whinny, and defeated. Now, using your leadership style or LBJ's, which one do you think Larry Fink used to get to where he is right now? You simply want to undervalue 'MJ's' intangibles and leadership pricky contributions at a time where there were hardly any distractions. And that caused MJ to become the Blackrock of the nba.
Again, LBJ has a great case study right now with AD, so if you're answer is that it's not his job, okay, I can accept that. But we know what MJ did and what was the result of him doing so. There was nothing else to deflect to or try and bring in.
And what do all those names have in common? The best coach of their era and at least 1 superstar level player contracted for scraps allowing those teams to fill out their roster with championship quality roleplayers. But again, I wouldn't expect you to make this kind of a connection, because most basketball discourse nowadays is basically akin to low IQ gossip and not about the nuances of the game itself.
Crazy how a player with more money than any of the past players, with the most influence over where he went, and able to hand pick the best in game players, still is chasing that ghost. It sucks knowing that he's max out every star player that he ever played with. It's why the relationships have always lasted so long.
