i think nba team defense today is a hell of a lot more sophisticated than it was in the 90's. all the switching and positional versatility that the warriors have now might wreak havoc on people like tony kukoc and luc longley.

Jordan would have torn apart defenses (even moreso) if they didn't play him as physically. Look at the series against the Suns. He average like 45 - pmb Jun 13, 17:01 1
