How dominant would Mj be in todays league

[juju151111]

33-35 ppg,6asts,5rebounds,52%. It's easier on perimeter players today with the no handchecking and touch fouls. His combination of speed,jumping and IQ should be top notch.

Peak?

23/5/3

Nick Young level...without the swag

MJ would be the best in any era, with the possible exception of the 60s. So yeah, OP is in the right ballpark. Would be even better in the playoffs.

Jamal Crawford with a shittier crossover and a smaller dick.

[bluechox2]

30+/6/8

[J Shuttlesworth]

He's the GOAT for a reason.

TBH. If you took Bird MJ & Magic and put their games at they peak into today's game as is. I really believe the way the game is today Bird would be the better player of the 3. I see a even better Dirk. And we all kno how great Dirk is.

[Sarcastic]

He'd be most dominant player in the league. Probably like 40/6/7 or around that.



Which isn't too bad, when you consider that he is over 50 years old.

So MJ is averaging 40ppg in todays league when no one is averaging over 28ppg?

This year, he probably averages 29-30ppg on 48-52% shooting, with 6 rebounds and assists.

How many people averaged 30 the year he averaged 37?
How many people averaged 30 the year Durant averaged 32?

I mean we are talking about the GOAT here. He's better than all the top scorers in today's NBA, by a pretty wide margin.

No he isn't. If the defense starts sagging in the middle and playing a zone, he isn't going to light you up and make you pay from the 3 point line the way Durant is. Zone makes it harder for superstars to drive and have an impact on the game. Durant scores so well due to the fact he has Westbrook driving in, and allowing him to become a catch and shoot player a lot of the time. He can mix and match depending on what the defense gives him.

Yeah, Jordan averaged 37ppg on a team that had a losing record. Are you saying he wouldn't be good enough to lead a team to a decent record in today's era? Jordan isn't sniffing 37ppg in today's basketball. Maybe back in 04-07, but now with more teams using zone as a staple, even if he did do it, it'd be on low % numbers.
