John Salley: "Michael Jordan was not the greatest player ever!"

Not only did he say Michael wasn't the greatest, but he ran down a list of the greatest he's ever played against and, well...

"... the greatest player I've ever played against was Magic Johnson, next was Larry Bird, then Kareem Abdul Jabbar, and the hardest guy I ever had to guard was Akeem Olujuwan, and then Kevin McCale. The greatest player I've ever played with was Isiah Thomas. Michael Jordan was a good player, but he wasn't the best."

  8. As long as he didn't refer to himself as one of the greatest, I'm fine with him stating his opinion. I don't agree with him but he does have the right to feel that way about Jordan.

  9. Michael Jordan was the best player. I won't attack John because as an NBA player he's in a better position to state whom he believes is the best based on his experiences. Jordan pretty much carried the Bulls. He did have a good team but they choked often. What's different between Jordan and other players like a Lebron is that Jordan was able to fill in their blanks more often than any other players. Now although Jordan was a great player he wasn't a good person. He's probably one of the worst people in dealing with fans. His biggest fans being men but he's notorious for being really nasty to teens and men who are not famous.
