The match up would be awesome. Would KD get his? Yep. Steph and Klay might have night where they get 50 combined. But by the 4th quarter, the Warriors would be spent. people tend to forget that Jordan would switch over to a strong scorer if it wasn't Jordan's natural defense opponent but that guy needed locking down. Using the triangle they'd abuse Steph so much when he was on D he'd have nothing left for the end of the game. There wasn't a need for load management. And then we should remember that Michael would psychologically brow beat the entire Warriors team while dropping 60, daring KD to keep up, and having them fall into his trap. What Jordan would do to Harden makes Stephen King afraid.

@Darial Fasenntao The only rule changes the league made was the flagrant foul and that had nothing to do with protecting certain players. It was about business. Fans pay to see stars, you can´t ask fans to pay full tickets to see Jordan vs Thomas and 2 minutes into the game Mahorn takes out Jordan and 2:30 into the game Cartwright takes out Thomas. You can´t ask viewers to give up their weekend morning or afternoon to see Charles Oakley vs Horace Grant. By the same token you can´t ask networks to pay top dollar for the rights to broadcast your product when the guys who actually drive ratings get taken out a few minutes into the game. The NBA changes based on viewership and revenue. I guarantee you that in the next 3 to 4 years if we keep seeing the game move away from the basket, pretty much making anyone over 6´7 obsolete they´ll change the illegal offense rule to stop teams from going 4 out 1 in. That rule was also changed after the league say the way Chicago used Jordan early on. Couldn´t have 4 guys on the weakside of the floor.

if Jordan score37 points or40 Its because he took 45 to50 shots

[@edscottable]

They stopped mugging MJ in 1990.

[@mazengwe28]

But that's just it though. People are assuming even though the 3 shot is attempted more, that Jordan would just continue shooting mid range and layups. Its pretty much impossible to know exactly what kind of shot selection Jordan would have in this era NBA. He would either have to attempt more 3 point shots which will change his shooting percentage because he will sacrifice some of his 2 point attempts for 3's, or he would have to shoot more volume 2's to make up for the lack of 3 pointers. The in game flow would also change depending on how the leads change or what kind of runs are performed. Basically what I'm saying is something in his game would have to change in order for him to adapt to this era's gamestyle. An example is From March 3rd of 2019. Thats when Lebron James passed MJ in points. The only reason that happened is because of the 3 point attemtps by Lebron James. Lebron accumulated 27,120 pts from 2's and Freethrows Jordan accumulated 46,830 points off of 2's and Freethrows. So obviously Jordan whould along the way have to change his game to keep up with the scoring in this era, so that will change his efficiency in either a posotive or negative way. But nobody knows how his game would change. Therefore its pointless to compare era's. Too many viariables to take into consideration and one variable changes the other.

[@thejokersonyou]

@@mazengwe28 - The biggest dif between today and the 90s is PACE. I've seen no articles showing "points per possession" (per trip down the floor) have dramatically changed. The myth is any belief tht teams r just better scorers today... The truth is teams move faster. The 90s was a slower pace... Spurs/Pistons dominated early 2000s was the slowest... And even tho Steve Nash era Suns seemed fast ("8 sec or less") in tht era... They would b bottom 10% of teams today... Which is mind boggling. Its a faster game... Big guys r smaller and fewer in number... Paint is more open... Perhaps Jordan shoots more 3s... Perhaps he using all those extra possessions to punch on more fools... More often... More often... With more free throws. Perhaps his 50% (guards in the 90s werent all shooting tht high)... Perhaps he shoots 56% in this era...

When he came back into the league in 95, he wasn't quite as freakish physically and therefore couldn't drive quite as much into the lane as he once could do, so then that off the ball, off screen play of his became more part of his overall game.

Nigga stfu those players you talking about only made him look bad once. The pistons would make Jordan look bad all the time if that’s your argument. You wanna know you it’s stupid. Cause just like no one on the pistons could truly beat him fairly he’d still over dominate just as Kevin Durant does. Don’t play fr

@@charlesbryant5708 I don't see the pistons making mj look bad though. He actually took the challenge to get inside e en with the jordan rule.

@@algladyou okay because he stay played hard doesnt mesn he looked good. It just means he gave an effort but st the end of the day he was getting shut down so your argument is irrelevant

@@charlesbryant5708 getting shutdown because of the jordan rule and he was still making them. If you are playing someone against and doing all the dirty tricks and still making them and giving them awe per Isiah and dumar. Then he is still good. My argument stays and valid.

@@jasonwest7444 They had the best defensive rating with KD on the team Lol. Except their 3 points are not getting blocked. And the Bulls have to start playing defense without handcheck, don't think they can play defense as great without handcheck when they played handcheck throughout their career.

Of course he would in the no touch league of today. MJ would average 40+, no debate....

[@dynamic6645]

No he would not average 40+, you cant expect mj to have the same offense and defense like he had in the 90s, todays nbas defense is more complex, offense got better too, the 3, there are also more talented/skilled players than before, sure big men were dominant during mjs time, but the 2000s 2010s had more talented players than the 90s had and you cannot just deny this.
