I just realized today that Melo never averaged 30 ppg

[RRR3]

Damn, Jordan didn't get a single 30ppg season in the 2000's.

You have to remember, the 2000s only had 5 30 PPG scorers. The 60s, 70s, and 80s all had more.

Sit yo ass down 3ball

Yeah...but all that bitch Jordan was capable of in the 2000s was 22.9ppg...on 22.1 shots per game. I'm pretty sure Nick Young right now could put up 22.9ppg if you let him launch up 22.1 shots a game...hell even Kobrick could find his way to doing this, this season if he wanted.

3ball just admitted MJ faced less competition, which should be apparent to everybody else.
His strongest opponent, Drexler, is equivalent to DeRozan of this era.

[AintNoSunshine]

No other era comes close to this when it comes to explosive offensive talents. 3ball is full of sht as always.

No era comes close to making it as easy to score as this era. If he's full of shit...so are you.

Why don't you list his competition during his championship runs?

[3ball]

Why don't you list his competition during his championship runs?

Then I would have to do the same for Kobe, Lebron, etc.... It's just not necessaary..

For one, we already know Lebron's competition was far worse in the Leastern Conference - Lebron has defeated literally ONE THIRD the 50-win teams as MJ and Kobe and gets a free pass to the Finals every year.

I already listed all the best wings from MJ's career and they match today's era man-for-man and are superior overall..

That's more than sufficient.

[buddha]

Melo's done. I would take Kawhi and PG13 over him now.

The funniest part of this is that people are calling the 2000's the modern era. Umm, guys that decade started ~16 years ago. Players drafted last year were 3 years old back then...

3ball making up shit to suck off jordan again?

[Marchesk]

There was no year zero. Jesus was born on year 1. That means 2001 was the new millennium, which also means the new decade.

Also, God started creation on Day 1, not Day 0.
