Jordan is piling up such outrageous stats? All I've seen is box
scores and the occaisional slam-dunk highlight on ESPN, but I don't
even know, for instance, if he's playing point guard, shooting guard,
mostly around the basket, scoring on outside jumpers, or what. From
the few highlights I've seen, it seems he has carte blanche to go
wherever on the court he feels. But what's he got that makes him
special? I don't remember him having a particularly good outside
shot at UNC, and there are plenty of 6'6" players who can jump in
the NBA.

This was Jordan's rookie season IIRC.
Nobody replied.
It’s crazy to think that in 1985 this guy had the internet but didn’t have a way of watching Michael Jordan.
LOL. True. Probably a nerd computer tech at a research center or university or something.
Also. Not many Bulls games were shown nationally on TV (unless you had the WGN Chicago station on cable) at the time, the Bulls were terrible back then. Lottery team.
He probably did catch the UNC games on TV tho. MJ's college team. Or probably didnt even watch much college hoops. So who knows.
