POLL If prime Jordan played in today's NBA - would he be the best?

[Black Adam]

now Bart, why the facepalm. it happened, didn't it...?

 

[Bart]

Nah, he would just have Lebron as a rival and the other guys would be the John Stockons, Gary Paytons, Clyde Drexlers, Reggie Millers and Patrick Ewings of the world.

ROFL..Curry, Kawhi, and Durant wouldn't be rivals? LOL...That's rich.

 

[Black Adam]

Jordan's mom didn't like him. The dude was a prick.

lol, well yes, admittedly he was...

LOL..altering posts, SD? Just like a woman to cheat in order to keep up with a man.

And what do you hope to be when you grow up, little boy? Other than your uncles hand puppet during Thanksgiving dinner?

 

[Bart]

Again, his 3 point accuracy was more than fine for a player in his position at the time when he was in his prime. See post #383

Unless you're looking at and including his numbers when he was 38-40 years old to fit your narrative?

And Jordan was always satisfied with "fine"?

And Jordan was always satisfied with "fine"?

He was also "fine" with his blocks totals, his assists and free throw percentage.

None of which were league leading but good enough to win him 6 rings.

Is 3pm usually the time your mommy makes you your dinner?

LOL...I told you to stop living in the past, my Mom hasn't cook for me in ages. See, that's your problem SD, you live in the past too much, that's why you still think Jordan is the GOAT. Now where is that banana bread you promised?

 

[Bart]

How about DeRozan?

He's at #29, just ahead of Jordan.

LOL @ "Killer Instinct". Because Jordan stuck out his tongue out, pumped his fist, yelled at his teammates, and chucked shots at the end of games...he has a "Killer Instinct' ...don't make me laugh.

Youtube has probably a 20 minute compilation of all the hard fouls in the 90's, most not even on Jordan. There were more hard fouls in the 90's but pretending like they happened constantly throughout the game is trying to create a narrative that just isn't there.

Back in the 90's they had a little thing called illegal defense so Jordan couldn't be double teamed without the ball which resulted in slower rotations if the wanted to trap Jordan. Today's game they can double team you outside the paint any time they want. That is something else you might want to consider when analyzing how Jordan would do against today's defenses.

If you think ‘illegal defense’ meant you couldn’t double team a player — you know nothing about basketball.

You couldn’t double team a player?!?!

You need to stop, because you are only making it apparent how little you know about the game of basketball.

Look at that garbage defense, that close out was so soft. Where was that tough 90's defense everyone is talking about?

 

[Bart]

now Bart, why the facepalm. it happened, didn't it...?

So a player has great family support and it's suppose to be a knock against him? LOL...strong people form strong relationships, something Jordan probably doesn't understand.

Perhaps you missed the part where Cliff Robinson is literally 6 inches away from him and MJ still got the shot off

It's all he got. When he runs out of bullshit he'll give you the ol' facepalm rating.

You just know for a fact he's banging his keyboard and screaming at his screen while doing it too.

um, not gona go there when it comes to BronBron's family support...

I am grown up. Try to read, comprehend and keep up, little girl, that way you don't have to assume things that aren't true. I feel like I'm developing into your mentor, you seemed lost in this world, you're lucky Bart is here to guide you.

I think a few more days of this and you’ll crack. I’m in

It's funny to see them happen in real time. It's only a matter of time for him.

No he wasn't, he would have like to be tops in all that but especially a scoring stat like 3 point shooting would have been a stat he would love to add to his accolades. Wow, you really don't understand Jordan even though your his biggest fan.

Did you miss where I said "without the ball"? Reread my post and get back to me.
