How does Michael Jordan struggle in today's game....

Fixed. Genetically and anatomically modern Homo sapiens already existed 100,000 years ago much less 1,000 which is not to criticize your comment - but rather reinforce it

Son, pretty much all biological anthropologists and scientists are in agreement that the human race experienced the greatest period of singular evolution in the year between Jordan winning his last championship and Kobe riding Shaq's nuts to his first.

NBA players went from pygmies to indestructible hyper athletes during this brief period. It's science son.

Yeah, I know evolution takes a loooong time, I was off by a few hundred thousand years, lol.

This kids think evolution is by gen eration

Jordan was the lebron of his time. Not in the sense of how they approach the game, but in the sense of their physical abilities. People marvel at brons physical attributes as they should because he is a freak of nature, for this time.

Jordan, was the freak of nature for his time. No other players had his speed or strength or athletic ability. Fast forward to todays times, and many players are built physically just like Jordan.

Its called human evolution. He'd still be great but the one advantage he had over his 80s and 90s peers, wouldn't be as evident today.

wait...you're serious? Evolution in humans has been negligible for a long time. You must be trolling

That shit was funny, I guess around the year 2030, PGs will be 6'10 and centers will be 7'6 and run a 40 yard dash in less than 4 seconds, I'm waiting to see those dunks starting from the 3 pt line

[rfoster24]

because the NBA is full of hyper athletes today, and all though Jordan's physical gifts would make him top tier today, his 40+ inch vertical leap, would be only 20 inches today

Dumbest thing i've ever heard.

[Kobe 4 The Win]

Didn't read but,

In today's game Jordan would only struggle to make enough room for trophies on his shelf.

it's time to re-assess humanities entire understanding of the evolutionary tree

He probably wouldn't be able to jump as high because gravity weighs more than it used to from all the meteorites that hit the planet and make it bigger.

[Floppy]

he's like Wade on PEDS imo

An oxymoron if I ever saw one.

In 15 years, players with lebrons attributes will be the norm like players of today have the physical attributes of Jordan.

First of all, you're a f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]cking retard for thinking humans evolve in like 15 years. People that lived in areas of Africa 5,000 years ago are identical to the people that still live in the same areas today. Humans are not subject to natural selection in the modern world. If anything, humans in the modern world are weakening due to the weak that would die off being able to survive and pass on their weak genes.

Second, why aren't there a bunch of Shaq's running rampant? There are tons of 7 footers. Why don't any of them have his strength and agility?

Dumbest thing i've ever heard.

Dude its called sarcasm, the point was how does a athletic freak like Jordan, somehow become ordinary today. He would be the best athlete now

Because Shaq only retired recently. Duh, fool! Don't you understand common ISH sense?

Another guy called you out on that post as well lol, but the other guy wrote paragraphs, how people didn't realise the joke is beyond me.
