“Last season, …
“Last season, Jordan had to [overcome] the harassment of [zone traps] and [double & triple teaming] to win the scoring title by averaging 37.1 points a game”
– NY Times, Nov 4, 1987
Y’all act like MJ never saw zones in the NBA, which only shows your LACK of a historical perspective on the game. In college, he played against REAL zones for 3 yrs & shot 54% while doing it! Go look at the ’84 olympic team vs NBA players game here on Youtube. See how they zoned MJ all game & what he did to ‘em..
phil said, michael …
phil said, michael wouldnt score 45 per game, i guess you heard/saw wrong. he said 4,5 ppg
Zone defense …
Zone defense affect more the players who need to be near to the basket: Power forwards and centers
Jordan was a SG and shooting guards .. supose to shoot well
Also that means that jordan play with Centers and power forwards that have a little advantage …. because the Zone defense was not allowed
Phil Jackson said: Jordan would average 45ppg with this rules
During MJ’s era, …
During MJ’s era, there were 6 (including MJ) that WON the Defensive Player Of The Year Award 8 TIMES amongst them, which is UNHEARD OF considering big men consistently & typically win this award EVERY YEAR. Not to mention, the Top 10 Shot blockers of All Time also PLAYED in this era..
Now aside from Ron Artest, name 1 perimeter player from this era who’s Def Player Of The Year..just 1!
Surely in this alleged superior era you can find a bunch can’t ya? LOL!!
That’s what I thought..
Hey Idiot,
MJ …
Hey Idiot,
MJ faced 3 Top 5 defenses in the Finals. How many for kobe? The avg defensive ranking for the teams MJ faced in the Finals was 7.16. Go see what that # is for the teams kobe faced in the finals & get a good laugh LOL!!
MJ faced 17 Top 5 defenses in the post-season; 24 Top 10 defenses in the post-season & the avg defensive ranking for those teams was 8.35.
Can you say ANY of that for kobe? Not!!
and John Starks is …
and John Starks is a undersized scrub.
sorry but Dan …
sorry but Dan Marjerly is a defender 2nd all defense means nothing. clyde drexler is a slasher/scorer, was never known for being a defender.
Majerle was 2nd …
Majerle was 2nd team in ’93 All Defense. In In ’92, He faced Clyde Drexler, what next’s? You’re gonna say he’s a scrub too? And starks was a strong defender.
And MJ never faced Miler in the finals because they played in the SAME conference you idiot! But since you mentioned him, wasn’t it miller that held kobe to 36% shooting in the ’00 Finals? LOL!!
MJ’s Bulls beat “7″ …
MJ’s Bulls beat “7″ 60+ win teams for their 6 titles. Magic’s lakers only beat 1. The best team Bird’s celtics ever beat were magic’s lakers, his other 2 titles came via 2 mediocre houston squads, 1 of which had a sub .500 record.
“Celtic 2008 defense can stop jordan easily with the zone defense”
LOL!!
“Last season, Jordan had to [overcome] the harassment of [zone traps] and [double & triple teaming] to win the scoring title by averaging 37.1 points a game”

give me some names …
give me some names lol and did any of those guys guard jordan in the finals?
Dan Marjele with the suns 1993?
Jeff hornececk 1996-1998?
John Stocton?
Russell?
John Starks?
Reggie Miller?
sure; jordan’s era had rough defenses but he never face that kinda defense in the finals.
Celtics zone defense 07/08 or Detriot 02/03 can stop jordan in the finals.
Magic was 31, (same …
Magic was 31, (same age as kobe is now) when MJ beat him in ’91. Magic in ’91 had a PER of 25.1 in ’91 than he did in ’88 (23.1 PER) when he last won a title. So he had a better “overall” season when he’s allegedly “past his prime”?
Do you know DUMB you sound?!! LOL!!
And if you wanna play the semantics game, Bird only won 1 title starting from MJ’s rookie year (’84) until he retired in ’92, whereas MJ won at least 2 Titles during that stretch LOL!!
Is that right?
…
Is that right?
Well that would mean Bird & Magic & the rest of the 19 Selected “Greatest Ever”, played in this SAME washed up era.
This same era produced 6 wing Def Player Of The Year winners, The Top 10 shot blockers of All Time, 137 players that hold the MAJORITY of the Top 10 & 30 All Time Reg Season & Playoff honors in EVERY individual category.
Not to mention, 1996-97, 10 of 29 teams won 52+ games, that’s 34.5%, the highest % EVER in history..
You lose idiot..
“When we [ ...
"When we [disallowed] the use of the [hand] & [forearm] to the [body], that in [conjunction] with the defensive 3 second rule & [hand check] interpretation, [gave] offensive players on the [perimeter], [more offensive freedom].”
– Stu Jackson; NBA Exec. VP of Operations; “Season Review with Stu Jackson”, May 5, 2007
Oh it exists, just “below” the dotted line, where guards spend the minority of their time LOL!!
mj played in a …
mj played in a washed up league; couldn’t do anything vs the celtics or lakers when bird and magic were in their prime. Jordan didn’t win until magic and bird were near the end of their careers.
jordan won vs 2 metiocre west teams in the utah jazz. who guarded jordan? stocton? hornecek? russell? malone? ostertag?
Celtic 2008 defense can stop jordan easily with the zone defense.
i’m guessing you’re …
i’m guessing you’re the supposed real fan that things hand checking doesnt exist in the nba today right?
Also with the lebron james travel rule in effect. There is a video on youtube regarding kobe vs celtics finals and you’ll see all the fouls/hand checking/ moving screens the celtics used.
everyonew ill shoot 40% and under if you get fouled on nearly every play.
“kobe was robbed of …
“kobe was robbed of the mvp”
Kobe did not deserve MVP for ’06 or ’07 & came in 4th in voting those 2 yrs for a reason.
Guys like Dirk were shooting 40+% from 3′s while Kobe was ONLY shooting in the mid 40′s with his ENTIRE shot selection. Nash were putting up double doubles EVERY night while shooting 40+% in 3′s & 50% in reg shot attempts.
Kobe deserved MVP possibly in 2002-03, but NO WAY he deserved it in ’06 & in ’07.
“wasn’t this the …
“wasn’t this the same maverick team that made it to the nba finals?”
Yeah, but they weren’t ranked in the Top 10 in defense that year either. In fact, he’s NEVER scored 50+ vs the #1-2 ranked defense in his career.
I spit these factual daggers about kobe at y’all, because TOO MANY of you kobe fanboys here on YouTube, ALWAYS try to discredit other players accomplishments in order for y’all to make a more “favorable” comparison for him in these kinda’ discussions..
kobe 62; mav’s 61 …
kobe 62; mav’s 61 in 3 quarters… wasn’t this the same maverick team that made it to the nba finals?
kobe lite up every team that season and was robbed the mvp. Even Larry Bird wanted to throw his mvp away because of how they didn’t give it to kobe.
lol such a hater…
lol such a hater…
his LEGACY not his …
his LEGACY not his hall of fame induction.. legacy as in “oh it was because he had shaq” or “he was scoring only because shaq was getting doubled” stuff like that..
“Yea he got a …
“Yea he got a scholarship..it doesn’t have to be for basketball”
His scholarship “WAS” a basketball scholarship dumbass!! So guess what the “requirements” are for having landed a “basketball” scholarship? Take a guess at “why” they offered it to him to begin with!
For once, use your critical, no scratch that because that may be a little to hard with you being a kobe fanboy & all, make that your BASIC thinking skills, in determining “why” they offered him a scholarship..
Idiot..
funny how i NEVER …
funny how i NEVER SAID HE WASNT GOOD! i said thats where his COACHING CAME FROM! THERES A VERY BIG DIFFERENCE! YEA HE GOT A SCHOLARSHIP BUT ALOT OF PPL COULD GET A SCOLARSHIP! IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE FOR BASKETBALL! IT COULD BE FOR ANYTHING. SOME PPL GO 2 COLLEGE FOR SCHOOL BUT JUST TRY OUT FOR THE BASKETBALL TEAM AND JUST HAPPENS TO BE GOOD ENOUGH TO MAKE THE TEAM. IT DOESNT MEAN THEY ACTUALLY WANTED TO GO FOR BASKETBALL! PAT ATTENTION TO WHAT IM SAYING AND NOT WHAT YOUR THINKING DUMBASS
All you’re doing is …
All you’re doing is what most dumb ass, desperate kobe fanboys do when they’re “trying” to find away to elevate kobe in stature over MJ: discredit the “means” with a bunch of dumb ass, baseless & merit-less excuses..
You kobe fanboys are the kings of LAME excuses and backpedaling & are ADDICTED to apologies: “MJ has ‘MORE’ because..MJ only won ‘MORE’ because..MJ could jump ‘FURTHER’ because..MJ was ‘MORE CLUTCH’ because..MJ only shot a ‘BETTER’ FG% because..” LOL!!
It’s ridiculous!
