why did you even bother to ask? you know if you replace Kobe with a 28y/o Jordan right now, they go ahead and win the next 4 games and win the series 4-2.

Jordan:

1. Would have make Smush Parker looks like Ron Harper
2. Make my man Ronnie Turiaf be even more aggressive and have a great impact ala Dennis Rodman
3. Lamar Odom looks like a 7 footer scottie pippen
4. Sasha and cook become great 3 point shooters like kerr and paxon.

Jordan hate to lose and he would've humilliated Steve Nash the way he humilliated Payton back then.

Kobe's Leadership is flat compare to the leadership of a prime Michael Jordan of the 1990's.

[West-Side]

What bs, don't overrate Jordan...no he would not win this series for LA, maybe 1 game.

It would be a lot more competitive
Kobe's leadership has not really shown since post all-star

will they win? I give prime Jordan a 35%
but they wouldn't have been the 7th seed had MJ been on the team

Jordan would take matters to his own and cover nash whenever he was on the court, in the end Nash ended up averaging 15.9ppg, 3.3rpg, 7.7apg, 42%FG and 35% 3pt.

You cant stop Nash without good team defense.. You dont guard a pick and roll by yourself.....Dont sound stupid

Ok. Now you have gone way too far with that statement.


What are you talking about? When did Jordan humiliate Payton?

[Kobe24]

Great thread. We needed this one.

[Rojogaqu11]

Kobe being underrated here, seriously. Either overrated or underrated, but never criticized objectively.

[beau_boy04]

jordan was a great team leader and he would've push smush parker to be 10x better defender and had he not responded, mj would've taken personal and guard nash, mj was taller, quicker, smarter, wiser, better reflections, he was an intimidator, the greatest trash talker. he would've make nash look like a rookie just outta college.

I completely agree, and then he would have quickly rotated back to Amare and blocked his shot every single time. And Nothing on this earth could make smush parker play defense, NOTHING.
