Anyone who's seen ESPN knows that the Corporate Sports Programming Network has been the jordon Sports Programming Network for most of it's history.
So, no shock when they put together a fluff piece on the NBA Draft that they decided to try to pimp the tin rigged god as the Best Ever.
The piece was a piece on the best draft picks at each position, and jordon was featured in a large picture on the top of the piece.
Except for ONE PROBLEM...
They decided to use a sabremetric method called career win shares. Not 100% sure how it works, but the point will be made clear...
jordon was made the best #3 at 214.
The best #1 was Kareem... at 273.4!!!!
OOPS!!!!
NOT THE BEST EVER!!!
(And one more on the bottom of the page. Since Wilt was a "territorial pick" when he was drafted, he was not included. His win shares? 247.3!)
