The Win Average of the bottom 5 teams in the league during Jordan's Era was 22 wins. The Win Average of the bottom 5 teams in the league during Lebron's Era was 22 wins. Redick provided ZERO statistics or data to back up his ridiculous claim, no evidence whatsoever. Six teams were added over a period of TWO DECADES (4 in the 80's and 2 in the 90's). One of those 6 teams was the Orlando Magic, added in 1989. The Magic became an incredibly strong and competitive team within only a few years of their addition to the league, drafting Shaq in 1992 and acquiring Penny Hardaway one year later! This 'expansion team' knocked the Bulls out of the Playoffs in 1995! The Miami Heat was another one of these 6 expansion teams, added in 1988. They acquired Glen Rice in 1989 and though they initially endured a few seasons of mediocrity, Pat Riley's arrival as the new head coach in 1995 ushered in the Tim Hardaway and Alonzo Mourning era. Riley drastically transformed the new-look Miami Heat into a defensive-minded juggernaut and they quickly became championship contenders. They progressed all the way to the Eastern Conference finals in 1996-97 where they were defeated by the Bulls. The Heat would go on to become the #2 seed in the East in the 1997-98 season but eventually lost to the Knicks in the Playoffs. The players that joined these 6 expansion teams weren't picked off the streets, these were professional NBA players already drafted to other existing NBA teams. In an NBA expansion draft, the new NBA teams were allowed to acquire players from previously established teams in the league. Not all players on a given team were available during an expansion draft though, each existing team was allowed to protect a certain number of their players from being selected, thus giving them the power to retain their 'Star' players. In the 80's expansion, the existing teams were each permitted to protect eight players from their roster. Additionally, the new 'expansion' teams would have access to high draft picks during the next draft pick depending on their win %! Where is the evidence of the league being 'watered down'?! Since his latest attack on MJ and the 80's/90's era, a lot of people are posing this question to JJ, including Udonis Haslem live on ESPN... What about the G League and it's significant impact on the current NBA roster? Over 50% of current NBA players have G League experience and a significant number of current players are signed to two-way contracts. Does that mean that the current NBA is 'watered down'? I would be very interested to hear Redick's response to that question. Any objective and rational person can identify a pattern here... Lebron suffers defeat and like clockwork, along comes a Klutch Sports 'Plant' pushing the next ridiculous MJ narrative, void of any substance..."But...but...but...Jordan played in a watered down league." Klutch are running out of Jordan narratives, each one crumbling quicker than the last. They are becoming so desperate, they are having to recycle old narratives! Remember when JJ stated on live TV a few years back that MJ was being guarded by 'plumbers and firemen'? The only card they have left is to continue trying to diminish Jordan's competition. That's it! That's all they have, now that the Longevity card has failed. It's truly disturbing, that Klutch Sports will stop at nothing in their absurd attempts to elevate James to Jordan's level, even if that means having to diminish an entire era of basketball. Say what you want about MJ but he NEVER used Nike or the Air Jordan brand to tear down another player or to discredit another Era. He respected the legends that came before him and allowed his Resume and his game on the court to cement his legacy.

In '94 the Magic made the post season and a year later they'd get to the Finals. It didn't really take long for some expansion teams to compete... because during "Jordan's tenure" we also saw some of the strongest draft classes ever. 6 of the 10 greatest draft classes ever (according to BR) were during Jordan's career.

The problem when it comes to MJ (he is the goat, at the moment, folks can always be surpassed) is that he is always referred to as this mythical god type of being. MJ was far and ahead of everyone else in the league, while now, we have more talent than ever and you have to be substantially better to rise to the top. Mike, LeBron, Kobe, Shaq, Steph, Larry, Magic, Kareem, Hakeem, TD, Russell, Wilt, Dr. J - ALL of these guys are greats in any area and any circumstance. Where you rank them is up to you, but we cannot forget that it is all subjective, no matter how much you yell and scream….it’s subjective, until you pull out the “goat rubrics”.

No physicality and I am not talking about hard fouls just a hand check and no defensive three seconds that way we don't give up free lanes to the hoop and players have to earn getting to the hoop.

I don't know where this narrative of great basketball mind comes from. I'm sure he knows his X and O's like other players. I don't think he is on Rajon Rondo level basketball mind.

I think finding out me and JJ have the same birthday is the happiest I've been in a while

Love it, having two totally Different Respected Basketball minds, and players go at it. I'm going to watch it twice just for Shaq's reactions to JJ's answers, priceless.

Shaq: “your jumpshot was sweet” Jj: “it was” 😂🤣

This podcast is hilarious. Shaq is the most uninformed former Legend....and JJ is the most informed basketball nerd. I'm sure JJ knew this going in, but if Shaq doesn't understand the basic difference between playing physical vs. flagrant fouls/ hard fouls...and he had to explain this, tells you all you need to know.

I thought the same thing. JJ is talking about how physical is the game ALLOWED to be played. Shaq seems to think getting into a fight once every 20 games is what makes it physical and then acts like no one in the current NBA could make it back then.

Great show

Y’know. Some of the greatest basketball players ever have very shitty takes. Like, it’s concerning. It can’t be their age? They’re not losing their sanity just yet. Shaq legitimately didn’t understand the difference between a flagrant foul and gameplay.

@@Bearghostermore skilled is just a thought but most the skills you see today been the same for almost 50 years now, players today just have a green light to shoot more and still go 0/12 also your allowed to travel,carry, and palm the ball.

@@drechillin2154 you’re not talking sense. The game has evolved. People weren’t taking 3s at volume 20 years ago. Now most players must be able to hit 3s to even play. That is a skill. Bigs didn’t have to do anything but score inside and play D, barely had to dribble. Shaq was remarkable cause he had moves and was massive. He could never shoot though. Very very few bigs could. Now we have many bigs who can dribble and shoot like guards. Defense has evolved too, beating people up on the court is not skill. Trapping, double teaming, navigating screens- these are skills.

Here’s what is the truth. For lebron to be goat, MJ’s achievements have to watered down, make excuses on why he won so much during his career despite all finals games are close, elimination games are close that he won. For lebron to be goat, you have to make excuses for why he lost so much despite handpicking players and building superteams!!! That there says it all. PERIOD.

He's a hypocrite and a propagandist and a pseudointellectual. "I was up all night desperately searching for some obscure statistic that I can use to build my biased opinion around." He does what everyone else in media does now, try to put a positive spin on this league while ignoring its many shortcomings and ballwashing Lebron and whatever other superstar of the moment the league decided to prop up for revenue's sake.

Reddick just doesn't get it. He didn't experience that era. Jordan's never lost an NBA Finals. Jordan played at a time when the game was rough and physical, so era comparisons do matter. Jordan won a defensive player of the year award, in addition to his MVP awards. How many defensive player awards did Lebron win? Jordan always played with vigor and a dont f with me attitude. Lebron would show flashes here and there, But mostly played with a softer passive attitude. The only debate here is who is the second best player of all time. You can go ahead and give that to Lebron if you want to. You really won't get much argument.

Why so much hate? The in-season tournament was ENTERTAINING because we got high effort games with a playoff aura in the middle of the season, which is a success!
