Used to be just a 4-day break when the guys were playing all 75-82 games a year and averaging 38-40+ minutes a night... yet today's "vastly superior athletes" (lol) need an entire week off, on top of the load management, minimal back-backs and 3 in 4 nights, while playing 60-70 games and only 34-35 minutes a night.
Why is that?
Anyone?

There were 14 NBA seasons from the start of Jordan's career till his "retirement" in 1998.
He played 35,887 minutes in that timeframe.
Lebron, in the 14 NBA seasons after the start of his career played 41,272 minutes.
Now tell me how that makes you feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.
Completely irrelevant to the thread, but since you went there:
Jordan: 9 season playing all 82 games / 11 (out of 15) seasons playing 80 or more games
LeFraud: 1 season playing all 82 games / 3 seasons (out of 21) playing 80 or more games
Jordan: 10 (of 15) seasons averaging 38 or more Min per game
LeFraud: 9 (of 21) seasons averaging 38 or more Min per game

A LOT of deflection from Drunko in the above post.
You didn't refute my VERY CLEAR evidence that Lebron played WAY more minutes than Jordan over the same time period.
GG's my guy!
Duh... he played more minutes because in your cherry-picked range MJ missed nearly 2 full seasons (1 to injury and 1 to retirement).
Jordan: 38.3 min for his career / 9 season playing all 82 games / 11 playing 80 or more
LeFraud: 38.0 min for his career / 1 season playing all 82 games / 3 seasons playing 80 or more
LeFraud finishes in Second Place... yet again.

They are superior athletes who *received* it because they had to courage to fight for better conditions, instead of rolling over like a cuck, like Jordan did against Stern and the league office.
Silver is petrified of Lebron. Stern owned Jordan.

Even if you added all of Jordone's collegiate minutes (3,107) to that number, he would still be 2,278 minutes short of LeGOAT lol
When you play Defense for only half your career (like LeFraud), you can extend your years because you're only exerting half the energy, which means half the wear-tear on your body vs. a player (like Jordan) who went all-out on Offense and Defense his entire career.
Not that hard of a concept to comprehend... UNLESS you never played basketball, which seems to be the case with all you LeTots.
In either case MJ averaged more Min per game than LeFraud, he played 80 or more games in 75% of his 15 seasons (vs. 15% for LeFraud) and all 82 games 60% of the time vs. just 5% for LeFraud.

That's the difference

Facts are facts.
Correct, and here are the facts: Silver is a gutless coward for allowing the inmate to run the asylum, while LeFraud is a pussy for pushing to extend the AS break. Stern wasn't a coward, and MJ wasn't a pussy.
Back to the drawing board for you, bush-league.

I'm simply pointing out that Lebron shoved around Silver, while Jordan meekly submitted to Stern.
If Jordan could have fought for longer breaks, he absolutely would have, considering he took a huge break in his 2nd year, and again after the 1993 season. He clearly wasn't opposed to long breaks as a concept. He COULDN'T do it because he was SCARED of Stern.
Lebron did what Jordan was too petrified to even attempt to do.
They should honestly just name All-Stars but have no game or event related to it, but they won't because $.
Unless someone comes up with some better ideas, does anyone actually care about the ASG or any of the events like the dunk or 3 point contest? I certainly don't.
