The OVERALL level of talent back then was pretty bad bruh

Evolution has taken place in everything except nba basketball. Let these old farts tell u.

I don't know what to tell you but Jordan in his prime was playing with and against the perfect storm of athleticism, physical defense, and refs not completely dominating the game the way they can now when it comes to the best teams playing against each other. Plus there wasn't anywhere as much flopping among the stars.

The players now have to deal with every defensive scheme being legal

Before 2001 you couldnt pack the the strong side, research and you'll see after 2001 players who played in both eras points and fg% dropped after they got rid of hand checking and illegal defense

Im not tryingg to say Era A is harder then Era B or vice versa just saying both eras have their respective challenges

And as such its not fair comparing stats from different eras cause the game has changed so much

You just focused on me mentioning athleticism.

That's really not the way you should go if you're gonna dispute my point. I did not say when Jordan played the players were more athletic than the players now

I'll look up the fg% stats before and after 2001 but from what I've seen in the past 13 years the biggest change is the amount of teams implementing the zone.

2014 Piston would beat Jordan bulls 87

 

[siete tres]

Eric Snow is still the greatest pg of all time

 

[Bert.]

Eric Snow is still the greatest pg of all time

Eric Snow needed some better team mates otherwise he would have gottan a chip in 01

What did the '87 team ever do?

At least make a strong statement and say the '96 team.

 

[hypebeast5]

Since we are making ridiculous statements


Kemba would average 30 in the 90s

Edit: Current hornets would be 69 win team in the 90s

We just gonna act like Aaron Mckie wasn't the 2000's Kevin Love?

[ballinsam23]

Lets just forget how MJ, AS A 40 YEAR OLD, carried a team and scored 20+ on a nightly basis on this soft *** league.

No 40 year old today would EVER average 20ppg in MJs era.

You can't use the greatest player of all time to make that argument

 

[jayfiend]

But the argument started because somebody said Jordan's name.
