Isiah Thomas Sparks Controversy: Did Jordan’s Shoe Deals Really Secure His GOAT Status?
The shoe thing is a great dig because it has enough truth to sting. Also, shout out to Thomas for mentioning Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who is constantly cut out of a debate he deserves to be in the middle of.
It should be noted that Thomas has a history with Jordan. Thomas and the Bad Boy Pistons invented the “Jordan Rules” and had many physical and emotional battles with Jordan’s Bulls in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Those Pistons were the better team in the late 1980s, keeping Jordan and the Bulls out of the Finals and forcing them to improve to reach their peak (one GOAT argument for Jordan, that he never lost in the Finals, falls apart because of the Pistons — Jordan wasn’t good enough to get his team to the Finals until the Pistons faded a little, saving him some of the Finals losses LeBron had lifting lesser teams to the biggest stage).
