Of course, those are opposing players who don't want to believe it will
happen. I mean, some guys in the league came in right after he left, so
their concept of how he used to kick ass (and how he still will) is limited
to what they saw on TV. Guys like Shaq and Penny Hardaway have never even
played against Jordan...so they have no idea of how much he dominates the
game.
