    Default Bill Russell guarding MJ

    At Russells athletic peak, what would you expect MJ's stats to be if Bill was assigned him? MJ 89-91, or 96. Include FG%

    If you don't think Bill could stay on him at all, then what kind of trouble do you think he could cause if he was the help d as Moncrief guarded him?

    KG guarding MJ <<<The closest we'll ever get to a real life comparison. And Jordan was waaaaaay past his prime. No coach in their right mind would put Bill Russell on Jordan as a primary defender.

    Gary Payton did great and he was 6'2, Russell could probably hold him scoreless
