Retired and current players. Retired players go back to their playing ages. Who do you pick first. Me...Larry Bird. Jordan second. Magic Third. I mean look at Larry's stats and awards... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Bird
You have a point Bane, and don't forget players like Charles Oakley, Anthony Mason, and Rick Mahorn.
We're also playing in a league without dominant centers anymore and not long when driving to the lane a player had to deal with the likes of Hakeem Olajuwon, Alonzo Mourning, David Robinson, Shaq, Dikembe Mutombo, Patrick Ewing, and even others such as John Salley, etc...

How so?
The league was much tougher in years past.
Can you honestly deny that Pats?
Name some 'tough' players these days we could even begin to compare to some names mentioned further above...
If you think someone has a point saying they would take Karl Malone over Lebron James that is your prerogative I guess. Some things I wouldn't really feel like debating...
I didn't even read the rest of his point because once he said that I knew there wasn't reason to (no offense to OP but cmon now)
You can also argue that since the league is soft then thats how you have to play. If Rodman, Barkley even Jordan played how they did back then TODAY they wouldnt be able to cut it because they would foul out by the 1st half. Just look at Lebrons size, he has the tools to play in a more physical league if he needed too. If he was born in their era's I think he would still be in the NBA and be doing well
Just curious what you would call blacks who get a hard on for Bird? He's a pure shooter, much to the liking like you are the definition of pure ignorance.
