In a league where Demar DeRozan has put up close to 30 a game off of jumpers we question if Jordan with hops speed quickness and skill that most STILL don't have today could compete and dominate in today's NBA. Not to mention the fact that he was going up against prime T-mac Pierce Kobe Carter etc. and was still more than holding his own should be the only proof you need that he would be as great now as he was then.

I said in the another thread if he was on the Nets instead they would’ve won a one championship, maybe even 2 and Nets would’ve stayed in NJ :mjcry:
ehh, against those Laker teams? He probably would have had to be on a team in the West. Spurs, Kings, maybe Wolves. Cuban said in a recent interview he tried to get JOrdan to sign the same deal with the Mavs but Jordan had already given his word to Washington.

I’m talking the two years he played with the Wizards with coincided with the Nets Finals years. I think at the very least 02 Finals goes 6 games and 03 Finals I believe Nets would’ve beaten the Spurs in 6 games. But that’s just me, any time before or after Nets probably aren’t contending with Jordan imo.

I wish he could have gone to a better team :mjcry:
After seeing The Last Dance I'm almost 100% sure had Mike come back to a team that he actually expected to compete for the title or even a high playoff seed that he would've put up 28 points that first season. That man always has another mental level he can get to, ALWAYS. And knowing that there was a real title shot, Mike would've been making up all kinds of shyt in his head to get to that next level.

He had Chris Whitney and Tryon Lue as his point guards. Rip Hamilton (who they should have kept and missed 15 games that first season) and Stack (who missed 12 games) as his second best players. Had Christian Laetnner Popeye Jones Jahidi Whitie and Brendan Haywood as his bigs. Straight up for them to even win 37 games both seasons is better than they should have been. They didn't have enough scoring from their big men and had two backups starting at point. What MJ did after 3 years always should be applauded more than it is if we keeping it real.

derozan said himself - mj on the wizards was technically a more talented version of the GOAT as he didnt have the same athletcisim and had to rely on his footwork and fakes etc other parts of his game , and was still elite in that version

deroizan said he watches and studies tapes of the wizards version of MJ all the time :ehh: :sas2:

Thread is hilarious given how MJ is praised for his play at that stage of his career, yet Bron at the same age (who's considerably better) is being told to retire. TheColi is a funny place.


THE ONLY THING BRON IS BETTER AT IS STAT PADDING WHILE COMING WITH A NEW PICK UP TEAM OF HALL OF FAMERS EVERY SEASON ONLY TO GET MOPPED IN THE FIRST ROUND
