Michael Jordan memo to Kobe Bryant:

[TheMan]

Of course the dream team can lose. Has no one ever seen a inferior team beat a better team before. Not like Kobe said they would in a playoff series.

Players today are just more skillful. There's a whole lot of players in the NBA that plays like MJ. Back then he was like the only of his kind.

Wrong, players nowadays are more athletic as a whole (and not by much), fundamentally (skills) they are weaker.

I don't even know what you mean by playing like Jordan, I hope you don't mean slam dunks. Name me the players you think play "like Jordan"

haha

good joke.

Players today are just more bulked up & toned. Thats all. I wouldn't even call them a better athletes overall than '80s & '90s athletes.

I still see more explosiveness in Kemp & dominique & Shaq like bodies of '80s & '90s than Today's, Howard & Blake griffins.

Those '80s & '90s players were more explosive & attacked the rim viciously.

Today's well toned muscular physique men cannot.

think about this.

Harold Miner exploded on the rim much better than Kobe Bryant ever did when dunking.

Miner is only 6'2". Kobe is like 6'6". both had small hand size. so fair comparison.

Kids think the whole Derrick Rose and Russell Westbrook small guy playing above the rim is new. That also happened back then.
