There are certain players that in their prime pretty much guarantee you a playoff birth, usually centers and point guards. Jordan is the one shooting guard who could do this.
DJ/Kemba Jordan Maggette? Bismack Mullens I don't think there's enough scoring on that squad. Maybe Playoffs, but nothing deep.
It would be exactly like how Jordan's first 7 years in the league were. Where he won scoring & dunk championships and his teams were making it as the 7 & 8 seed and taking 1st round exits.
Almost. 84-85 -- 7 seed -- L 1st round (1-3) 85-86 -- 8 seed -- L 1st round (0-3) 86-87 -- 8 seed -- L 1st round (0-3) 87-88 -- 3 seed -- L in Conference Semi's (1-4) 88-89 -- 6 seed -- L in Conference Finals (2-4) 89-90 -- 3 seed -- L in Conference Finals (3-4) 90-91 -- 1 seed -- W in NBA Finals (4-1)
were talking about Jordan here Dude would average ~40 points a game. easy! Y'all see the paper thin defense we got in the league right now?? Make it to the eastern conference finals. Easy. Mj would lock up rose, Lebrun, wade. Ain't nobody seeing money
The game has changed. No longer Jordan will have unathletic perimeter player trying to guard him. Jordan will have to play against zone, bigger faster guards with quicker lateral footwork . Eastern conference easily ? Smh not a chance with that bum team that he own
