10 seconds left, tied up, ball in Jordans hands. Who do you chose to defend him?

The idiot strikes again...

Jordan was out of his prime against a youngster, is it so hard to understand? Kobe is getting further away from his prime the longer he plays, the moment some young upstart drops 40 on Kobe, I'll be here claiming young upstart>Kobe, I'll be taking a page from your retarded playbook:roll:

[QUOTE=AlphaWolf24]jordan didn't think they were ill advised shots when he ws sittin on the bench crying atfer Kobe dropped 55 on him..

U mean like how Kobe disrespected Lin "who?" in the locker room, so Lin raped him for 38 points? :oldlol:

You reach, I teach:bowdown:

Honestly? Cover him with my two best wing defenders and let a role player shoot it and hope they miss. Still a better chance that we win that way, Steve Kerr notwithstanding.

Pippen and Gary Payton.

Triple team of: Rodman/Oakley/Cooper

Payton's playing him right. Cut off the right, play him horizontally, keep a strong base, extend frame on left and right to create one man traps, stay low to the ground until necessary, close in on him, deny him the room to operate and keep him out of the post.

[QUOTE=AlphaWolf24]Judging by watching tapes of teenage Kobe vs Prime MJ...and Young Kobe vs old MJ...


no doubt Prime Kobe would be able to guard MJ.

Kobe had the foot speed/desire to make MJ take a ill advised shot.

and on the other side...no way MJ could guard Prime Kobe....Kobe by basically anything he wants.[/QUOTE]
When did Kobe face prime Mj? Kobe wasn't around 88-93 when Mj was in his prime

[QUOTE=AlphaWolf24]you mean ballhogging / shot jacking your way to a lost...

Mj was shooting like 28 - 30 times a game....Detrit would merk though..[/QUOTE]
Mj shitted on Dumars so bad they created the Jordan rules. After Mj had back to back 50+ points the made it. Let's get something straight Detroit can't guard Mj one on one especially 88-90 Mj who could run all day. Watch this video n look at the doubles n triple teams from the Pacers [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOS1qNTWb70&context=C4444d98ADvjVQa1PpcFM6hw86OyCEXwyVkWT8kCi102E8KxNc8zE=[/url] lol at guarding prime Mj with one person

Depends what team Jordan is playing on - real teams or some fantasy stuff? If it's the 2nd 3peat Bulls I'd double off Rodman. Leave the Center on Longley and hope he's quick enough to challenge Rodman if he gets an easy opportunity at the basket.

I'd try to get Jordan to pass the ball to an open teammate that hasn't got a good FT% and foul immediately if there's no more foul to give.

I'd put Kobe or Wade on Jordan and Grant(whatever PF is on the Lakerssquad, doesn't matter) or Bosh as a doubleteam. Although they're slower than Jordan they'd be there to consumate space and bait Jordan into passing to the open man.

I'd really try to get a last shot and rather go down by one, than gamble on Jordan himself and lose without a chance to tie/win.

...and I know that this has been tried and Kerr/Paxson hit the gws, but it#s stupid to double off spot up shooter.

GP had mind control over MJ.

[B]The Sonics tried that in 96. He set a record for offensive rebounds in a game. Twice.[/B]

[B]So now youre team is in the penaly for long stretches of the game and you have players in fould trouble. [/B]

[B]The lakers tried that in 91. The result is Jorddan found Paxson wide open time after time.[/B]

[B]If Jordan has the ball in a tie game with 17 seconds on the clock, you aint getting it back.[/B]

[B]Magic thought it made sense lol[/B]

The only two players capable of contesting Jordan were Pippen and Rodman. You gotta throw Dumars in there cuz Jordan said he was his toughest defender. But he did have a lot of help.

James doesnt have the lateral quickness

Cooper would get posted up. Too skinny.

Bryant aint good enough
