Garza Places Above MJ in Points Per Minute

[HawkeyeHypnosis]

Garza scored seven points in five minutes during the Minnesota Timberwolves' Game 3 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals on Saturday night, which actually placed him above Jordan in one category: points per minute.

I realize this really has nothing to do with the topic, but I read this and thought it was awesome on Jordan's part and I've agreed with this for years:

Put Garza in the HOF you cowards! Seriously though the guy languishes on the bench and only plays during garbage times of games. Really wish he'd go play somewhere he can get some real time. That MN front court is too deep

Nope. This may be the first flaw that MJ ever exhibited. Not believing that basketball stopped being interesting and began to regress as a human skill the day MJ retired is sheer madness.

Seriously, the game is not as compelling to watch as it was 30 years ago. The ratings support that. Metrics driven 3-point shooting offenses and the inability to hand check have led to glorified pick up games during the regular season, and not a ton better in the playoffs. Honestly, the only reason I tune into the NBA these days is to watch Jokich play. That guy is a freak of nature.

I didn't watch it 30 years ago and I don't watch it now. Unwatchable. I just thought it was cool that MJ was going to weigh in on the fact that there are elite players now too and that the GOAT debate is toxic.
