most people over 50 don't think that kids today are as intelligent as they were when the reality is that kids today are more intelligent.
why would i trust all 40+ yr olds?

because we made our own money when kids today have it easy
i am 48 years old and am retired all thanks to my hard work
i put myself through school and worked in an engineering practice
kids today are no smarter or dumber than those in the past, but are more technologically savvy
without experience you cannot begin to understand context
you have a lot to learn

lol theres so many things wrong with this post i don't know where to begin
a) yeah jordan might be the best basketball player ever. but he didnt have the best career. kareem and russell did. and then if we're not counting careers one could say kobe/bird were more skilled since they dominated without overpowering athletic/physical advantages like jordan had over his opponents
b) kobe/duncan are top 10 on nearly every list known to man kind... lebron with 1 more ring could pass hakeem. thats 3 people
c) using senile/alzheimers as a prerequisite for ranking players lacks credibility

nobody cares about career, NOBODY
all that matters is how good you are and playing for a long time and not being as good as the best doesnt change that
kobe duncan and lebron are not top 10 i posted my top 10 to that sissy mark masden in the other thread
its not senility its EXPERIENCE and GETTING IT

i know who to take lessons from. i regularly ask advice from older people but none of them is like you and believes that it is way harder to make it in America than anytime in the past.
the first thing that experience teaches someone is that the next generation will have it tougher, at least in the first world countries.

i didnt say it was harder at all if someone today works hard they are worthy of respect too
all i said is experience and lessons learned over time cannot be replaced

your top 10 means sweet f*ck all though
and you basically just described kareem abdul jabbar. he played at an allstar level longer than anyone while being the leagues best player for 10+ years
jordan was the leagues best player for about 9 years
88
89
90
91
92
93
96
97
98
and was basically finished after 13
your senile alzheimers havin ass loses again

have you looked at how fast the syllabus is changing. 6th grade kids are being taught what was taught in the 7th grade a few yrs ago. the grading maethod might be made more lenient but those you get good grades because of it don't make it in the job market.

you do realize your criteria pushes jordan out of the top 5 right?
youre basically saying peaks > careers
and in terms of peaks it goes
#1 wilt - 50/26/100pt game
#2 Oscar - 31/13/11 ( triple double average )
#3 Baylor - 38/19/5 ( at 6-5, a shooting guards body )
#4 kareem - 35/17/5
#5 Shaq - 30/14/4
any gm would draft these seasons ahead of any of jordans.. period

who the heck cares about points or assists or rebounds
jordan played when the game was fully integrated with african american players

my top 10 is
mj
shaq
earvin johnson
the sky captain
larry bird
moses malone
bill walton
david robinson
akeem

anyone going to college doesn't mean much. you can go to college and still not get a job.
you have to be more intelligent now to get a good job. unless the development of the world stops, the next generation will have to be smarter to get a good job.
