Hoop fans, especially the younger ones, are claiming that they are\u00a0<em>\u2018Done with the 90s\u2019.<\/em>\u00a0Recently, NBA veteran Kenny Smith was asked about this trend and another trending question regarding\u00a0Michael Jordan\u2018s ability to go left on the court. Smith had a good laugh about the question before he went on to dismantle this narrative.<\/p>\n<p data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-wp.thesportsrush.com\/2024\/04\/2906737e-nba-2024-04-13t185334.529.jpg?format=auto&amp;w=3840&amp;q=75\" alt=\"&quot;Could Michael Jordan Go Left?&quot;: Kenny Smith Laughs Hysterically at Mark Jackson's Son's 'Preposterous' Question\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-2\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">During a recent episode of the\u00a0<em>Mark Jackson Show,<\/em>\u00a0Jackson\u2019s son Bluu asked Smith,\u00a0<em>\u201cThis is what the people want to know\u2026Could Michael Jordan go left?\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Smith instantly started laughing and said that he is aware of the stupidity of this generation and how they are trying to belittle the impact that MJ made in his career.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-3\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">The NBA veteran put things in perspective with a near-perfect example. He said,\u00a0<em>\u201cYou know what that would be like? That\u2019s like saying, \u2018Can Prince play the guitar?&#8217;\u201d<\/em>\u00a0He said that just like Prince could play the guitar as good as anyone in his band, Jordan could go left on the court quite easily if he wanted. The former Houston Rockets player further added that Michael Jordan was the most complete player he has ever seen, and that there was nothing he couldn\u2019t do on the court.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PART 2: TNT\u2019S KENNY SMITH JOINS THE MARK JACKSON SHOW |S1 EP20\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RwJglHOH3Is?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-4\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">In the last few weeks, this narrative has taken over the internet discourse on basketball. For someone like Smith who witnessed MJ\u2019s game from the very beginning, it is absurd that some people have actually started believing in it. It also highlights an interesting point, that after a huge smear campaign against the 90s and especially Jordan, all the naysayers could come up with was that he couldn\u2019t go left on the court.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-5\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">The Jet even compared MJ\u2019s game with the likes of LeBron James and the late, great Kobe Bryant. Smith said that MJ was the most fundamentally rich basketball player in the world, and often his larger-than-life personality and otherworldly list of accomplishments take the focus away from that.<\/p>\n<h2>The recent agenda against Michael Jordan is forced<\/h2>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-6\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">It is very easy to accept that various players can be great, and one doesn\u2019t need to tear down a certain player to hype up another one. However, that seems to be a problem with a large number of hoop fans as they believe that only one can be great, and the rest will have to fall in line. The recent\u00a0<em>\u2018We done with the 90s\u2019<\/em>\u00a0trend is a product of that same mentality.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-7\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">However, when comedian Andrew Schulz had JJ Redick on his podcast, he asked the NBA veteran, if his podcast co-host LeBron James is\u00a0running this smear campaign. It\u2019s important to note that it was all said in jest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"chapters-container\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the past couple of months, a bizarre trend has taken over the NBA community online, which stems from the belief that 90s basketball was a much&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1400,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1399","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1399"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1399\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1401,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1399\/revisions\/1401"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1400"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1399"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1399"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sbiz.thongtinluat.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1399"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
