Here’s Michael Jordan playing basketball vs. Martin and Charlie Sheen in 1987

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Everyone is up in a tizzy talking about whether Michael Jordan could beat LeBron James if both players were in their prime. It’s the kind of fantasy matchup we can debate over the water cooler until the end of time. Instead of that pointless discussion you should really take the time instead to watch Michael Jordan in his prime play Martin and Charlie Sheen.

We learned a few things:

1. Martin Sheen’s “I made a free throw” face is a lot like a baby pooping.

2. Michael Jordan is a complete jerk when he plays horse against mortals.

3. How can MJ beat LeBron? He can’t even beat the Sheens!

That’s a joke! Please don’t send me emails. The big thing here is that the show ends saying a rematch needs to happen soon. It has been 28 years -- it’s time for Michael Jordan vs. Sheens 2.0.
