Did Jordan play in a watered down era ?

[0cks]

I like how Kobe fans like to downplay Jordan for being the avant garde prototype 2 guard that we now expect...

All these great guards from the new skool wouldnt put up numbers against the Bad Boys or Riley's Knicks...

The 2010 Finals Game 7 was like a regular season game for Isiah's Pistons...

Worst thread in the history of Sports & Training, you kids have too much time on your hands with no games on.

The SG talents was not great. The 90s were mainly known for big men but the guards and shooting guard were weak. Jordan was head and shoulder above everyone at his position and was way more athletic and taller than the guards that were trying to guard him. Also they call everything when Jordan drive in so no excuse for the hand check

With as little defense thats played and how fouls are called in todays game, Jordan would average 40+ points a game.

IMO the players evolve from each generation, so you can't really compare different eras. They may have been great during their time but each generation seems to get more overall athletic. You stick Derrick Rose in 1984 and people's minds would be @@!%#%* blown.

yeah op is asking a dumb question, because in the early 90s the players were a lot more skilled and tenacious than they are now. you think the players of today are as talented as the 90s? yeah some, wade, kobe, lebron, kg, tim duncan, but that is it. i dont think durant would be a great player back then, he'd get bodied, howard would not survive having to deal with ewing, olajuwon, robinson, barkley, malone, mourning, young shaq. also the guards were better too, stockton, richmond, miller, price, mullin, anderson, drexler hardaway. just too many players that were far more talented than the players today.

and no, derrick rose would not amount to much in the 90s, simply because the lane was clogged by a talented, skilled center, unlike these days.. can you see derrick rose dunk or lay it up against a alonzo mourning in his prime, a young shaq? or a hakeem olajuwon? i cant
