It shouldn’t undermine the fact that he is still a humble person. That is my main point. He has given to countless charities, his composure on the court was better than most hot headed players play or have played in the league. (i.e. KG, Shaq) The only thing you guys keep bringing up is his celeb life, his life outside the court. One of the things I already addressed is his Hall of Fame speech, where he had every right to vent about his frustrations he kept throughout his career. It is much more harder than it looks to always be in the spotlight, with millions of people judging you, and not have something to say about it. Probably, one of the reasons he denied a photo. If you start to criticize every little thing a person says, and frame them as a “douche” or “*******” just because of that than even Bono and Oprah would be considered an azz. LOL. You didn’t know the guy, so your assumptions are based off of articles, and other people’s opinions.
so...you personally know michael jordan?

actually, i always considered Bono to be the king of all douchebags, but that's just me.

can we drop this pointless argument already and get back to the basketball?

like..how BAD THE MAVERICKS ARE THIS YEAR

poor poor lamar
