    Jordan couldn't handle modern defense

    Ordan scored against traffic cone defense when the NBA scoring average was much higher than today

    Curry would easily average 40 back then

    TIL:
    2000 - 2010 = a decade

    29.7 ppg is the same as a 30 ppg scorer, round it up, it's the same thing.

    The 60's had 8 players.. So today's era compares with the 60's regarding ease of dropping 30.

    You can be a great scorer and don't average 30. Look at the list of guys who did it in the 00s. All MVPs but Wade and TMac (both of them superior players to Melo)
