  look we aren’t elevating jordan. we are simply taking him for who he was. it is unrealistic to say oh well if he played today he would be stronger and faster. i am saying take jordan from then and put him in todays league and take kobe from now and put him in that era and it might be different. jordan would still be one of the top athletes even today. so i’m not gunna say he would be even more athletic if he had been born later.

  ok look your not really getting the point of my question. it is not about stats. you gave stats that prove your point i could give stats that prove kobe’s case. i’m not even saying kobe is better. i am posing a question about the generational gap. jordan was before his time. the nba had never seen someone with that type of athletic ability. the only comparison athletically in that time period was maybe dominique. jordan’s stats were better but is that because his competition was worse? in his last two finals he was primarily guard by russell and hornacek. would hornacek or russell be a shutdown defender for any team in the nba today? yes jordan torched them but wouldn’t kobe, lebron, and wade do the same thing. i used kobe as a specific example because he seems to be the closest thing we have to jordan in todays game. i think if jordan played today he would be right there at the top of the league with kobe, lebron , and wade. i just think these 4 guys are on a whole other level. jordan just happened to come first when he did not have nearly the same caliber athletes to compete against nightly. their are exception but the league as a whole was not nearly as athletic as today. if you had put kobe back in that time he would have been equally as dominant. then jordan would come in this era and have people like ron artest guarding him. jordan would have to guard people like wade and lebron each night. it would be a different story i think. i dont know that jordan was better he was just first.

  well i’m actually trying to get some tangible reasons why people have this point of view. like for instance if i was defending kobe’s position i would say, “kobe has a better 3 pt shot” or “kobe plays today against better players than what jordan played against or at the very least kobe is playing against far superior athletes”. see i’m giving REASONS not little comments with no support. well i wouldn’t call anyone a idiot if they said something useful not “kobe couldn’t wash Jordan’s Hanes” what is that. exactly it is idiotic. therefore he is an idiot.

  ok preferably idiots won’t make stupid comments like that. if you disagree thats fine but atleast give a half way intelligent response. not something stupid like this last guy who obviously one of the people i am talking about. people build jordan up in their mind to being even better than he was. he was great no doubt, but i just dont think he was as good as people grew up watching him believe he was.
