He may be Baby-Faced Assassin, but Golden boy Stephen Curry simply pales in comparison with vintage cum vindictive Michael Jordan. Well, that’s how the two standup comedians are drawing parallels between the two basketball legends. Having no love lost for Stephen Curry, the comics rue the game gone soft in an era where Warriors’ sharpshooter is redefining the records.
The funny comparison has taken the Bulls legend out of his spotlight-less seclusion. Finding solace in his family and golf, MJ mostly spends his post-retirement time away from the public gaze. His focus is on building his investments and increasing his portfolio. But even then, he continues to drive the content.
Dan Soder on his Soder Podcast on Youtube welcomed his guest Neal Brennan who is famous for co-creating and co-writing the Chappelle’s Show. Both of them agreed that they didn’t like Curry and the reason was rather bizarre.
Brennan said, “Steph Curry and a joke I didn’t do which is like I’d rather watch old Bulls games than new Golden State games. I’d rather watch old Michael Jordan games that I know the outcome of than fresh Golden State Warrior Games, cuz cuz just he’s a little stable ”
Both agreed to the fact that they would rather watch somebody who had an aggressive look. He felt that Jordan showed the personality that screamed, “I will kill him next time.” Brennan recalled an incident involving MJ and Kendall Gil where Jordan chased Gil under stanchion and had that killer look in his eyes.
Brennan shares a funny Michael Jordan story
Michael Jordan had a falling out with his teammate on stage. And that teammate was Steve Kerr, the current head coach of the Warriors. Soder and Brennan recall how people couldn’t believe that MJ would hit a teammate and he was called petty. Both the comedians love that MJ was being petty.
Brennan had another story about MJ up his sleeve and wanted to reiterate his belief through the story. Recalling a story about Jordan visiting a bar and a stranger with a Duke T-shirt teasing him. Jordan was quick on his feet and gave a befitting reply saying, “I love your lacrosse team,” and never looked back at the stranger. The reason for the stranger taunting MJ was because he rejected Duke in favor of the University of North Carolina.
