“This year is Lamar Jackson’s Michael Jordan 87-88 year”: Gilbert Arenas defends Ravens star’s poor playoff record with NBA legend comparison

On the debut episode of his new football analysis show “The Arena,” Arenas spoke in defense of Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, saying that his less-than-impressive playoff record was reminiscent of Michael Jordan’s trajectory in the NBA.

“MJ in the 80s didn’t win in the playoffs. [He had] individual stats and greatness, showed that he is that dude, and it took him time to mature to get to that level,” Arenas said in the video. “This year is gonna be Lamar’s Jordan 87-88 year.”[Timestamp – 1:40:47]
