Batted over .300 3 seasons. Just playing devil's advocate. You can probably find worse numbers in the Hall than his definitely.
Yeah I mean of the big names of baseball his numbers are overall maybe a little less eye popping. I was surprised a little honestly at how high he actually did rank in some of the all time categories. He also has the dubious honor of hitting into the most double plays in MLB history (Pujols is one away from tying him)...
I dunno man....was a pretty cool play in my book. Maybe a touch overrated in the big picture...I think the "free throw line" dunk is actually more overrated than this particular move. There is one photo of it that makes it look amazing but watching it one film isnt as impressive...of course, when you actually stand at the free throw line on a basketball court it becomes pretty damn impressive again, LOL
I thought it was pretty good. I've always thought he made the play because Sam Perkins make a little fake like he was going up to defend the shot. Either way, I think we should consider CONTEXT on many of these plays before deeming them "over-rated."I dunno man....was a pretty cool play in my book.

I stand corrected. Was thinking of when he raised his shoulders to Cliff Robinson after hitting a 3 pointer and scoring like 40 against the Trailblazers in the first half.
Kinda like Favre's interception record. A qb would have to throw two picks a game for twenty seasons and then some more lol. But you throw that many passes for that many years, you're gonna throw picks-in his defense.
Yes, that was maybe the defining image of the Bulls v Blazers series. Was he shrugging at Cliff Robinson, though? I always thought it was directed to either A. the announcers/press, B. his bench/coaches, or C. just himself. Either way, 20 year-old me remembers Jordan hitting about 6 3's in the first half (3's weren't a huge part of Jordan's game back then) and just enjoying the moment.
Yeah, he was just making everything he put up in that game. It was in Cliff's vicinity-probably a more general shrug and not directed at him.
Jordan's shot came in the closing minutes of a game where they were up by 20 points. He was hot dogging just like when he shot the free throw with his eyes closed. He would have never done either if his team wasn't comfortably leading. They border on unsportsmanlike.
