I won't lie. I skimmed the OP, saw 'Australia' and 'Chicago Bulls' and assumed your favorite athlete was going to be Luc Longley.
I live about 30 minutes away from where Micheal Jordan grew up so I'm biased. He was bigger than Jesus around here when I was a kid. I wasn't even a Bulls fan, to be honest--I liked the Pistons--but yeah, I have no doubts that he is the best I've ever seen.
