The 1991 (http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=qpikcz&s=8#.V_L49-ArLIW) and 1992 (http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=iwox8i&s=8#.VI_7OSvF_Ck) Philadelphia 76'er media guides show that Majerle got 70 dunks in 1991, and 72 dunks in 1992 (top 10% of the league) - this is far more than Klay's career high of 21 dunks in 2015.

Majerle's higher dunk total occurred when league-wide dunk frequency was lower, as shown here (http://insidehoops.com/forum/showpost.php?p=12555171&postcount=86) (1 dunk every 23.8 shots in 1992, compared to 1 every 22.6 shots in 2014).

Why is this important?... Because people were wondering whether MJ could average 50 on Klay - he obviously could, since he averaged 41 on Majerle, who was a superior athlete and all-nba defender (47/10/6 in Games 2-4.. and also got 36 on Drexler in 92').

Good point.. Based on Jordan getting 41 on Majerle and 36 on Drexler, we can assume he would get 50 on Klay.

People forget that MJ averaged 34/7/6 (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=373989) in 16 games against Reggie Lewis (starting SG vs. starting SG), and 35/8/8 (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=376404) in head-to-head matchups with DPOY Michael Cooper (who was far more athletic than Klay).. MJ also used to destroy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEnOf9okUdg&t=1m19s) superathlete SG Stacey Augmon..

Even at 33 years old, MJ averaged 30 ppg on 50% against Nick Anderson and Penny Hardaway in ECF.. Klay's athleticism compares more to a guy like Dale Ellis, who Jordan also used to destroy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCSGPvnbW3k&t=2m16s).

Dan Majerle was a multiple-time All-NBA defender and superior athlete to Klay Thompson.

Both of those things are facts...

Based on Jordan's 36 against Drexler, and 41 against the superior athlete and defender Majerle, it's safe to assume he would get 50 on Klay.. :confusedshrug:

This would compel Kerr to try Iggy on Jordan, which would force Klay to the bench or to guard the bigger Pippen.. These are the kinds of problems caused by Jordan's destruction of his SG matchup - every opposing coach was forced to tinker with the lineup and use different positions to guard Jordan..

Otoh, coaches can just guard lebron with the opposing SF the entire game, and lebron will get 25 or 30, but rarely a 40 point game (1 every 15 playoff games for Lebron, compared to 1 every 3.89 games for Jordan)

Shaq is nowhere near the scorer that MJ was

And even if MJ doesn't average exactly 50, he'd average 45 or so, which he's done several times before (Jordan is the only player in modern history that averaged 40+ in a playoff series, and he's done it 5 times)

Also, the most important point is that MJ would force Coach Kerr try Iggy on him - this would force Klay to the bench or to guard the bigger Pippen.. Otoh, Lebron doesn't dominate his SF that severely, so you can guard Lebron with your SF all game long... Again - this NEVER happened for MJ - coaches always had to experiment guarding Jordan with other positions.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

This is honestly ban worthy. It's just such a giant leap in logic (no pun) that it can't be mistaken for anything other than a troll at this point. Not only does dunking =/= defense, but also dunking/vertical or w/e =/= all athleticism. And then an arbitrary number like 50 just to make this even more bizarre.

Came here to say this.

I knew people would assume he was a stiff defender, but was actually a great defender even late in his career in the 2k era.

[fourkicks44]

Jordan averaged 45 against the Heat in 92. It was a three game series, which obviously doesn't happen anymore. 50 ppg is not really absurd.

Yeah it is a 'woulda, coulda', hypothetical debate but definitely realistic in those terms.

Could Jordan drop 50+ in 3 games being guarded by Klay Thompson? I say yes.

[3ball]

It's just such a giant leap in logic

1) Klay has never made any all-defensive teams (Majerle made 2)

2) Klay gets about 15 dunks per season, whereas prime Majerle got 70+ (top 10% of NBA).


Based on the two facts above, Dan Majerle was a better defender and athlete than Klay Thompson.. That's pretty good backup and support for the claim, so I don't know what you're complaining about.

So considering Jordan averaged 36 on Drexler and 41 against the superior athlete and defender Majerle, it's very conceivable that he'd get 45+ on Klay, just like he did to Ron Harper in 1988 or Dennis Johnson in 1986.

[FKAri]

3ball do you have any scoring extrapolations for MJ with Spud Webb guarding him? I can't imagine it looking good for MJ. Running the numbers myself using your dunking ability to scoring output formula, I'm getting MJ averaging 17.324 ppg in a series. Can I get a confirmation on that? If only the Hawks had analytics back then.

it's basically a chance for him to make this point again with a new thread because he made this same claim like a week ago(http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=418841&page=2 I remember since I argued with him). At least there, he backpedaled and said he would "at a minimum, he'd average the same 34 ppg that he averaged against all SG's for his entire playoff career" but 34ppg is a long way from 45ppg or 50ppg.

[3ball]

Jordan averaged 45 ppg against better players than Klay Thompson, which means he'd do it to Klay too..

But at a minimum, Jordan would average the same 34 ppg that he averaged against all SG's for his entire playoff career - this average forced every coach to experiment guarding him with other positions like the PG or SF..

Otoh, Lebron doesn't destroy his matchup nearly as much, so you can guard him with Iggy, Pierce or Hayward all game.. It's pretty simple, but you don't what this implies, so you play dumb

Ofc I get what it implies. It's implies Jordan is a better scorer than lebron, something everyone besides a few trolls agree on and something you could argue in a much simpler and more logical way if you feel like you need to.

[3ball]

Jordan averaged 45 against the Heat in 92. It was a three game series, which obviously doesn't happen anymore. 50 ppg is not really absurd.. He also got about 45 against the Celtics in 86' and Cavs in 88'

Could Jordan drop 50+ in 3 games being guarded by Klay Thompson? I say yes.


Jordan averaged 47/10/6 in Games 2-4 of the 1993 NBA Finals

Since he accomplished this against an All-NBA defender and athlete who ranked in the top 10% in dunks (Majerle), he'd do even better to an ordinary defender and athlete who barely ever dunks (Klay).

[MiseryCityTexas]

They called him Thunder Dan for a reason. Most underrated white dunker in NBA history. He wasn't a bad player when he played for the Cavs during the Terrell Brandon era either. He was a really solid underrated player for the Cavs that one year.

[Sarcastic]

I always thought Majerle and Klay was a good comparison. Two white guys with no real moves to the basket, but great shooters and defenders. I think Dan was the better player though.

I watched the 1992-93 season, and I found out that Dan Majerle's legs were shot because by then he had played too many minutes. He became "Bomber Dan" cuz in order to keep up his production he took more three pointers.

By the 1993 Finals, he barely had any lateral quickness, so Jordan was beating him off the dribble easily. :oldlol:

Dunk totals are as much a product of a player's offensive style and skill set as their athleticism. There's plenty of great athletes who aren't high volume dunkers. Majerele (in his younger days) was a rim attacker, whereas Klay's game is more perimeter oriented. Regardless, I don't see how dunking relates in any way to defense. How often does Tony Allen dunk? What about Gary Payton? Sidney Moncrief?

[iamgine]

Defense is a team effort. Dan Majerle's team was the worst defensive team in the playoff in terms of allowing opponents' points. Luckily they're the best in scoring, kind of like mid 00's Suns.
