So you're saying that whatever MJ did in college in not valid because it was North Carolina and they are always good? Ummm....you are aware that UCLA is perhaps the greatest college basketball dynasty ever, right? 7 titles in a row? In the three years prior to Lew Alindor's arrival in Westwood they won 2 NCAA titles!! After Lew left they still won 5 more fricking titles!
MJ's title doesn't count? OK.
How many titles did Kareem win in LA without Magic? Zero
How many titles did Kareem win in Milwaukee with Oscar? Zero
If Kareem is the one you start your team with, how come he can't win a title by himself? You mentioned MJ beating inferior teams for titles? What about Jabbar loosing to Seattle in 78 and 79 and not even making the finals? Talk about shitty.
Look, if you think Jabbar is the best player that's an opinion...it's not shared by too many people but it's still an opinion. Just know that you invalidate any point you are trying to make when you say stupid shit about Jordan, whom most people agree is the greatest basketball player of all time.
I agree no one just hands them the title, the players have to PLAY! NCAA tournment is one of the hardest tournments to predict. It doesn't give teams any breathing room. And the best team doesn't always win! The team that players better that night WINS!
