Re: Michael Jordan is trying to get back to his playing weight
Lol Jordan would get owned if he tried to comeback. Come on let's be real he would be a liability on defense at the least. I know it's mj but 50 years old is 50 years old just look at kobe one of the hardest workers in the nba if not the hardest worker and guys he's guarding routinely have great nights could jordan really keep up I think not

If you believe that for ONE second you're insane (though I know evidence on this board has already confirmed this). You think all these young guys wouldn't go extra hard at Jordan to try and make a name for themselves by dominating him? You think LeBron, Kobe and Brandon Jennings for some reason wouldn't wanna drop 80 on him?
After all the shit Jordan's said about this era being easier to blah blah blah and these players couldn't have cut it when he was around, you think they'd go EASY on him so he could keep downing this generation once he packs up and leaves again? If MJ even came back and was remotely successful, it'd be an embarrassment to the current league that a 50 year old from the 90s could come back and play well against them. They'd go at him harder than you've ever seen.

I don't. I already saw the majority of his career when he was actually in his prime, including every game of the Bulls' titles years. With this being the case, why would I care to see him at 50? I'm not some kid who never saw Jordan, nor am I someone whose only live recollection of him is from his Wizards years and had to watch YouTube clips to see what he was like. I saw it all as it was actually happening. I don't believe I watched a single game while he was on the Wizards, so why would I want to watch him now? If it actually happens, I still maintain it's pathetic. It would mean that even after all his riches and his fame, he still can't let go and move on with his life. Which goes to show that more money that most people could ever dream of isn't what people think it is, and can't buy contentment.

Can't see him coming back. He might be able to play some cleanup minutes or whatever, but he is 50 years old. I'm sure that on a practice court he could probably still look like a great player, but getting old is noticed most at full speed. At the full speed of a game his reflexes, speed, decision making would all appear greatly diminished. He would appear unable to pull the trigger on offense as if he isn't even trying.
Would look very much like an old boxer who was once great trying to fight a younger fighter that he would have demolished in his day. He is 50 years old, this cannot be stressed enough.

Did u just compare boxing to basketball????? Hell nah. U di know boxers prolly take more punishment than nfl players right??? Ive played bball against guys in their late 40's and yes their lateral quickness wasnt the best but they could shoot like crazy and they post game was exceptional. Not sayin every guy in their late 40's can pull it off but basketball and baseball are two sports that are father time friendly compared to boxin and football. I think jordan could come back and be like a jerry stackhouse....hit that corner three and with him gettin down to 218 hell he might even be able to rebound a lil.

His post career is about as good as any former player not named Magic.
He makes $40 million per year from the Jordan Brand, he owns a team, and has one of the biggest houses in the world.
His career as an exec was not great, but many former player's weren't (Isaish's was worse).
He is attacked becasue his post career is under a microscope. Lots of players end up addicted to drugs and have criminal histories. He has maintained a clean record and is an upstanding citizen in Charlotte. HORRIBLY WRONG
