We always talk about the best athletes on Niketalk, we always talk about career achievements and other things, but what about the best competitors of all time.Guys who were warriors, had that killer instinct.... Took @#$+ to the next level... What you guys think???
heres mine:
Allen Iverson- barely 6 feet ( more than 5 11) and still attacking the hoop at will. No such thing as not getting up, no such thing as taking a night off. Atrue soldier. Favorite AI moment def. when he stepped over Lue: Swagger at its finest.
God in shoes aka MJ- They say that defenders would be scared to look money in the eyes cuz he would take it as a challenge. Stackhouse said he beat mj 1 on 1jordan torches him... van gundy says jordan gets favorable calls. jordan torches him. Some nobody on the knicks drops 35 on jordan in a game. Money predicts 35by half. Drops 30. Homie backed up all his claims. Best competitor EVER. i would Never doubt mike i could care less if the bulls were down 20 when two minutesleft. I remember jayson williams book Loose Balls, he said Jordan was the scariest dude in the league, he would tear a guys heart out if it meant winning. Dudewas even competitive at monopoly.
John Elway- there may be more talented qb's out there but none had the heart of mr. Elway. Always stepped up when he needed 2. Played with a montana likeconfidence.
Brady- See John Elway + talent. Plus getting in defences face= mad swag.
Donovan Bailey- random one for you guys but the canadian track runner who was once the 100 m champion. Sonned Michael johnson in their race. and even predictedbefore hand that Michael johnson would fake injury if he lost
Zidane- most of you know him for his headbutt, but guy wasnt even supposed to be a elite soccer player.. doubted at every level as a youngster before hestarted tearing @#$+ up.
Ray Lewis- no such thing as losing without going down without a fight.
Zeke Thomas- bad coach and exec. but dont even act like that ankle injury performance in the playoffs was other-worldy in
