Personally, I’d enjoy seeing the modern era and the 90s era clash. Tougher defense and much more physical play by miles COULD have the effect of wearing out a lighter, more agile team by pounding them in the paint.

[@jdapaul1351]

I don't think so. I think the modern era could adjust. Great players will adjust to any era they're put in.

[@BessieRiggs]

@@jdapaul1351 Are you assuming that we'd be giving the modern era time to adjust? Even if you put them in a best of 7, the modern teams would probably be beaten up after the 2nd game the point where they would have to stay strictly out of the paint and hope that they are on point from beyond the arc. Old school could pound inside and make it down the court in transition.

[@jdapaul1351]

@@BessieRiggs well, great players will figure things out and adjust. Don't stick to your "toughness" mentality just because it's more physical back then. The real toughness is about being responding to getting beat up, which is getting back up better.

What makes you think they would have necessarily stolen the talents of the same players as they did the last time they played if they were to return?
