Answer 7

1st of all, they won't accept it. They will keep overrating MJ. 2nd, there is already a threat to MJ, Kobe Bryant and LeBron.

Answer 8

NO WAY!!

Answer 9

There are already players that are on MJ's level. There also will be others in the furture who accomplish and dominate the game in a similar fashion.

For instance you could argue that Magic, Bird, Wilt, Oscar Robertson, Bill Russell, or Kareem Abdul Jabbar have been just as great and have accomplished just as much as Jordan.

I don't think it's fair to pick just one player as thee singular best of all-time when you have at least 5 other players, from different eras who have accomplished just as much. There are classes, or levels that some players get to and some don't.

Now, I will say that MJ is the best player, I personally have ever seen. I didn't see Bird, Magic, or Dr. J while they were in their prime, but I know of them and their accomplishments. Same with the all-time greats from the 50's, 60's, 70's and so on. I started watching basketball in 1990 and I haven't seen anybody since MJ retired that is on or near his level.

But it's inevitable, if the game continues to grow, that some one will come along and have a career just as, or even more impressive than Jordan's.

Answer 10

Let's wait until one comes out.

Answer 11

they will never accept it......they will always grip about MJ being the best
