I'm not talking one season where Jordan was a rookie genius
Name one player I listed that only overlapped with Jordan by one year?

I think he was half drunk when he gave the speech, not a good look for MJ

What I have never really understood is how people say nobody could match MJ's

Not everyone is sure he chose to just walk away.
cougarstolz

You've got to take into context his personal life at that point.
SouthernBlueBlood

He walked away into another professional sport

Jordan has 30 more stolen bases than LeBron. 3 more homers too.

Exactly.

so because i can't actually do this i can't have an opinion about what would

Nope. I didn't say that. Just funny how sure everyone in this discussion is when

really? stupid?
nashty
5/26/17 10:36am
you can have an opinion and i can call it dumb. to speculate about what
smokymountainrain
5/26/17 10:42am
not really. it's not hard to figure out what MJ would do in today's NBA
nashty
5/26/17 10:47am
Yeah, he's 54.
benny1982
5/26/17 10:49am
Okay calling someones thought stupid is immature and shows a lack of personal judgement
SouthernBlueBlood
5/26/17 10:48am
Methinks it just shows that he is significantly smarter than his critics

slow down there.

Meh. You can also play zones and double guys before they get the ball in the NBA

off the top of my head
BigYfan
5/26/17 10:48am
you just listed Kareem, Kobe, KG, and Tim Duncan as contemporaries of Jordan
The Shazad
5/26/17 11:08am
They belong in the same era
BigYfan
5/26/17 11:17am
That's like saying LeBron and Pippen belong in the same era

no one considers James Worthy top 30 all time
The Shazad
5/26/17 1:58pm
James Worthy??
messi
5/26/17 2:20pm
Lebron has faced much, much better teams in the Finals than Jordan did.
messi
5/26/17 12:08pm
how many teams do you think there used to be back then?
The Shazad
5/26/17 1:22pm
lol. and who would those 20 be? remember Jordan made is run in the 90s
smokymountainrain
5/26/17 10:29am
he was the UNQUESTIONED alpha dog of the greatest team ever assembled:
nashty
5/26/17 10:33am
and this is relevant to the question asked, how?
smokymountainrain
5/26/17 10:35am
he said name 20 of the greatest players of all time that played during MJ's
nashty
5/26/17 10:37am
I count 13 by this list:
Baron
5/26/17 10:43am
15 including Jordan using this list:
Baron
5/26/17 10:50am
he said 20 of the top 30
The Shazad
5/26/17 10:44am
i'd say 8 of those guys, at most were top 30 players and that is being kind

nashty
5/26/17 10:47am
ha. he said when Jordan made his run. i'm unimpressed if he lost to
smokymountainrain
5/26/17 10:52am
It is the 1996 ranking. The list did not include Lebron.
Baron
5/26/17 10:53am
You're list isn't fair either
Remigius
5/26/17 12:16pm
Keep in mind this list was made in 1996 so that kind of doesn't even include
Baron
5/26/17 10:53am
Not sure why you are so sensitive about this - people can have different

5/26/17 10:54am
well i've been called "stupid" several times already. just throwing the fire
nashty
5/26/17 10:56am
We are just a bunch of stupid internet nerds anyway - don't let it bother you.
crack
5/26/17 11:13am
Bill Walton???
The Shazad
5/26/17 11:12am
Ok, then let's consider LJ, but only the years when his team won a championship.
CougarThug
5/26/17 11:22am
On this list there are 4 that are still playing:
Baron
5/26/17 10:34am
if we take that list as gospel - and there are plenty i don't agree with -
smokymountainrain

fbguru

True. Rules may impact that but at the skill level
Baron

The next era will finally have big ballers in the NBA.
BYUheaven
5/26/17 10:29am
Ha, yes. True. Let the Ball era commence.
messi
5/26/17 10:40am
Yes, very simple concept. The game will evolve and grow. Especially
messi

The Shazad
5/26/17 10:40am
this is like bringing up a high school scrimmage that LBJ lost as proof he's not
nashty
5/26/17 10:48am
i know - it was a joke
The Shazad
5/26/17 11:01am
Are we taking the Dream Team players at their prime or as they were in 1992?
GregOstertag
5/26/17 11:01am
The athleticism and shooting ability of today's players would make the 80s guys
