I won't deny that some of that reputation is fair, but I always thought it was WAY overblown. And it doesn't change the fact that he was just flat-out incredible. Hate him all you want, but he deserved every career accolade he got and every bit of his status as an icon.

I remember trying to figure out how to do his crossover with my brother. Felt bad for him that one year he made it to the Finals but lost to LA.
