The author mentions that they are basketball fans, then goes on to compare the athleticism of Michael Jordan to a cat or a dog. And yet, any basketball fan can tell you that raw physical prowess is not the most important part of playing the sport. It's being able to help your team put the ball into the hoop more than the other team. That requires shooting, dribbling, passing and defensive skills while minimizing fouls and technicals. None of which any other animal could master. Also, while Jordan was a great athlete, there have been even more freakish ones like Giannis, Spud Webb, Shaq, Wilt and arguably, Lebron.But why should being a freakish athlete be the measuring stick and not shooting like Stephen Curry?
