I think this is the only way teams can hope to slow LeBron down at this point. You have to physically check him every trip down the court, and hope he loses his concentration. If that means giving a flagrant foul, so be it.
I agree and I hope this settles some of the nonsense that older players spout about how current players couldn't handle playing in the 80's.. I have a feeling that all of the stars of today would do just fine. They wouldnt like it but they could play through it just like every player managed to in the 80's
Lebron
Bryant
Durant
Patty Mills
Melo
Wade
Nowitzki
Paul
All would be all starts playing in any era.
I would add Rose and Irving but they cant seem to make a sandwich without getting injured.

My bad, I meant all stars.
I believe it's clear to everyone that Patrick Mills is the greatest human to ever play the sport (If in fact he isn't an angelic manifestation of the divine sent to earth to play hoops)
You either need to get on board with the fact that at any point Mills will be dropping 100 point quintuple doubles every night or you should stop analyzing basketball cause you clearly have some learning to do.

Kobe would get destroyed by prime Andrew Toney. Kobe still a better player by far, but people are underestimating how great a scorer Andrew Toney was back in the day. Hell, Kobe probably would have fits against Danny freaking Ainge guarding him. Kobe would still get his 30/40 points, but Ainge and the 80's Celtics would simply outsmart Kobe and his 2010 Lakers to a tough win.

If your point is that the 86 Celtics are better than the 2010 Lakers then I agree with you. However if your saying that that is only true because Kobe couldn't play in 80's because it would've been too physical then you're being silly. Kobe would have been one of the top players.

Game. Set. Match.
Re: Bulls effectively use the "Jordan Rules" against LeBron James.
'86 Celtics would embarrass the '10 Lakers.
And Jordan still got his against the Pistons as well. I remember the first few playoff games against the Pistons in '89 (I think) MJ had a trip dub one game and like 45 in another. Bulls went up 2-1, then lost 3 in a row.
Anyways, the point of the 'Jordan Rules' isn't really to stop LeBron, it's to wear on his mental and physical energy. While it's definitely harder to implement today with these soft ass rules, it can also be more dangerous. You saw LeBron pick up a flagrant tonight in frustration. One more and he's out of the game, and the refs are quick with the whistle these days.

The fouls LeBron got tonight were nothing compared to 80's fouls.

You're probably from Tasmania or something since you're a right knob of an Aussie.
