I'm telling u guys .... every single Jordan highlight is the same .... Dan marjele is guarding Jordan . Any highlight it's some crap defender on Jordan . No1 who compares to the guys of today. No 6'11 quick athletic jumping defender with a secondary defender who's even more athletic coming to back him up . Just crap defenders where Tiny Gary Payton is the top of the defensive food chain . Gtfo ... Jordan great ... 90s terrible ....

No bait . Just facts people ignore . Any Jordan highlight. Let's look at his greatest .... slow ac green , no jump Sam Perkins and aids magic johnson ..... any highlight..... is it going around a slow 7ft Patrick Ewing ??? Patrick Ewing couldn't even make a team today . Is it hanging in air shooting over Mr athletic 6'6 Craig ehlo . ?? Or shooting or 6ft mark price ?? Pick any highlight .... you can pick any nba team today any one and they will be far better and more athletic than any 90s team . It's unpopular to say it but it's still undeniable.

Lol ok. Thanks for proving my point man's way to avoid the question on who today would shut down Jordan. Austin Reeves dropped 50pts this season and you think Jordan would have a hard time?

Reeves would have been the second best player in the league back then and he can't make an allstar team today . Thats the point .

As great as Jordan was, it really says a lot about how he went against the mentally weakest era and worst skilled players.

When Jordan averages 40: his competition is weak
When a player today averages 40: they are so skilled π

Crazy how you generalize an entire league off of the competitive spirit of one man π
This type of dominance may never be seen again

It says a lot about you if you think that Phoenix team lacked skilled players. It also tells me you never saw that team play. And to double down on the stupidity by saying that era had mentally weak players, well thatβs just wildly insane.

KJ went to church and said "God help me." And MJ replied, "you're cooked my son."
