Those things aren’t the same.
How are they different? In particular the MJ situation. He chose to miss a season. These guys would be choosing to cancel the playoffs.
Are you really asking?
MJ didn’t choose to miss a season as a statement in support of social justice.
(And if you think it was MJ’s choice to “retire,” then LOL, MJ also has some oceanfront property in Idaho he’d like to sell you, but that’s a different story)
I think you are missing my point.
I cant count the number of times i have heard "MJ would have won 7 straight if it werent for him playing baseball". It never seems to bother the MJ guys when that is thrown out there....so not sure why it would bother the MJ guys/anti lebron guys if the lebron fans throw out "he could have won 1 more title the year they boycotted the playoffs".
...and i love the MJ conspiracy theories. If we dont know by now we will never know. Maybe he got banned. Maybe he didnt. He sure seems to portray it as he was sick of basketball. So i am going to take his word for it until real evidence comes out to the contrary other than messageboard rumors (often from guys who were like 8yrs old when it happened).
