@@ImTitan16 Jordan was never a hip hop guy though. Who knows what he would look like. My guess is he would still be bald because he didn't want to waste time fixing his hair. He was always working on his game.
I swear I am siting in my cousins living room and go “you think Jordan would be average in todays game” then saw this in my notifications now ima have to find out
Even though I already gave you ideas on another vid you did on what if teams like the Kings don’t move out of KC, this Jordan in Modern NBA inspired me to give you more ideas for future videos. Keep up the great work as always. - What if the 1992 Dream Team was a real NBA team and played against some of the greatest NBA teams ever? -What if Len Bias had lived? What would his career have looked like? -What if Magic and Bird played their entire careers together on the same team as teammates? -What if the NBA adds more teams from the ABA in 1976 after the merger? And what does the modern NBA look like? Do the Grizzlies still move to Memphis despite the Kentucky Colonels being there? Is the Chicago Bulls’ top rival not the Pistons but the Spirits of St. Louis? Do the Jazz still move out of New Orleans despite the Stars playing in Utah? Many different variations to do based on this one alone.
If you’re bringing jordan to the current era, you also have to bring the entire championship bulls roster. Still believe Jordan’s the GOAT but, honestly, team dynamics comes into play with his performance. Like Common said, “For every Jordan, there must be a Pippen”
Jordan as a rookie today, with all the modern advancements in skill training, nutrition, recovery, etc. he'd make first or second team All-NBA. IRL, he won the scoring title nearly every year he was with the Bulls except for the year he came back. The only year he didn't was his rookie year, and he was 3rd.
Very true. But unfortunately that isn't the case, he played in a watered down league with no all time great as they have all retired along with multiple extension teams which lowered the talent pool. Got drafted to a competent organization who actually built a contender around him. Unlike LeBron of course, Cleveland probably wanted to save money & wasted lebron's early prime & turned against him when he left for an actual competent organization
@@LeCold1113 I saw times where Jordan scored with all 5 defenders in the box. And he could still get to the rim! The zone would not slow him down! He also was a better jump shooter than Lebron.
You should put LeBron and Michael Jordan in the same simulation and put them both on bum teams like 20 ovr’s. It would show how good they are even though their seasons would be horrendous 😭
TOP 30 ALL TIME: 1. Michael Jordan - AIR. Black Cat. The greatest player and the greatest career in NBA history. Most dominant offensive force and one of the games best defenders. A literal, overpowered video game character. 6x Champ 6x FMVP 5x MVP 1x DPOY 2. Bill Russell - BILLY. Russell is the greatest winner and greatest defensive force in NBA and sports history. A legend on/off court. The key to NBA first dynasty. 11x Champ 5x FMVP 5x MVP 3. Magic Johnson - the great PG ever (so far…). REVOLUTIONIZED his position and saved the NBA. He has the highest assist avg. all time and went to the Finals 7/12 seasons between his rookie season and first retirement. Remarkable. Magical. 5x Champ 3x FMVP 3x MVP 4. LeBron James - the greatest longevity in sports history. One of the most dominant forces ever and top5 all round player. ALLTIME points leader and the only player to keep up this quality of play this late into a HOF/Mt Rushmore career. Still.. counting. 4x Champ 4x FMVP 4x MVP 5. Tim Duncan - best PF ever. One of the most fundamentally sound players ever. Played both ends at the highest level for 15 seasons. BIG Fundamental 5x Champ 3x FMVP 2x MVP 6. Kareem Abdul Jabar - owner of the most dominant go-to move on offense. The HOOK. The previous scoring leader and lead all points for 4 decades. The greatest BASKETBALL career ever. Prep to Pro. 6x Champ 2x FMVP 6x MVP 7. Kobe Bryant - see number 1 and dilute the athleticism and physical intangibles and that’s what you got. Arguably the greatest warrior in NBA history. Bean lead LA to 7 titles in his 20 year career and took 5. A gladiator, general, philosopher and true sage of the game … forever missed. 24everMamba. 5x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 8. Shaquille O’Neal - the most dominant ever. The immovable object/unstoppable force. Shaq was the definition of dominance. Should’ve been the goat. Nobody was in better position to take the crown of GOAT from MJ since Shaq in 04’. Yes. NOT Kobe, NOT LBJ. DIESEL. 4x Champ 3x FMVP 1x MVP 9. Larry Bird - maybe the most legendary on the list. Precursor to Jokic but better. One of the most skilled & clutch players ever. In any sport. LARRY LEGEND. 3x Champ 2x FMVP 3x MVP 10. Hakeem Olajuwon - back to back. The best of the mid90’s and second best player in the era. Hakeem is like Russell but with AllNBA offensive ability. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 2x DPOY 11. Wilt Chamberlain - the games most prolific scorers. Arguably it’s greatest defender as well. The man could do it all. Even lead the league in assist at 7”2. Wilt IS unparalleled. GOAT athlete. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 4x MVP 12. Steph Curry - the games most prolific shooter and one of its greatest scorers. The only unanimous MVP and the first ever. The catalyst for the current style of NBA basketball. REVOLUTIONIZED the game forever. STILL GOING. Splash Bro. 4x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 13. Isaiah Thomas - ZEKE. CP3 before CP3 but nastier and meaner. A warrior and one of the games greatest strategist and generals. Quietly a top5 passer. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 14. Oscar Robertson - the greatest all around basketball player ever. Could do everything at a AllNBA level. Changed the way players were interpreted and influenced generations. 1x Champ 2x MVP 15. Kevin Durant - the Slim Reaper is likely the most ideal offensive weapon ever. Can hit from anywhere, anytime over anyone. Hard to beat and impossible to match that level of offensive dominance. 2x Champ 2x FMVP 1x MVP 16. Julius Erving - The good Dr., the FIRST MJ (before Magic & Jordan), The icon and face of BOTH leagues that saved the game in the 70’s. Kareem was the best but Doc was a close 2nd. Underrated statistical brilliance. Was like a 6’7-6’8 Giannis but with a better jump shot. 3x Champ (1 NBA) 2x FMVP 4x MVP (1 NBA) 17.. Moses Malone - CHAIRMAN OF DA BOARDS. Arguably the best board getter… ever. Only Wilt, Russell, Rodman and Thurmond belong in the same discussion. Moses lead his people to the promise land more than once but was able to claim immortality in the early 80’s. His team lead by the dynamic duo of he and Doc dominated the league. Before Lakers v. Celtics it was 76ers v. Celtics-Lakers. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 3xMVP 18. John Havlicek - the GREAT one. MJ is 6-0. Ole Johnny is 8-0. The offensive force off the bench or starting that lead the dynastic Celtics to all 8. Early in his career he was akin to Jordan Poole role on Warriors 22’ team but better at everything but the 3 ball. Then in the late 60’s-70’s he sat in captains seat. His career is a unique mix. Played like Pippen with elite perimeter shooting/scoring, early career was early Kobe-esque, late career MJ/Kobe-esque. John’s game rose in the playoffs. 8x Champ 1x FMVP (likely 4x) 19. Giannis Antetokounmpo - it’s getting freaky… GreekMan is literally on the ride to potentially threatening Tim’s best PF title. If he can add a couple more rings to his already HOF profile he will likely be the new PF or TOP 5 player. Yea. THAT GOOD. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 1x DPOY 20. Jerry West - The LOGO. Steph Curry before Steph. The man that built the LA franchise along Baylor post Mikan era. Jerry West was the blueprint skill base for players like Kobe, MJ, TMac, etc At 6’2-6’3 he torched his opponents his entire career and dropped plenty of dimes. The ORIGINAL combo guard. So damn great he LOST and still won FMVP… case closed. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 21. Nikola Jokic - the Joker is no damn joke. Genuinely a candidate for potential GOAT if his career pans out in the extreme positive like that of the top 10. Jokic is in a unique place being the greatest passing big statically NBA history (excluding Magic). If Jokic finds a way to fit more jewelry in his fingers, we might have to have a real discussion about that greatest Center of all time discussion. Yes. Potentially a top 5 player alert. 1x MVP 1x FMVP 3x MVP (should’ve been 3 consecutive but you know 22. Rick Barry - The ACTUAL “White Mamba”. Just predated the black one… Barry was the answer up until 85’ when you asked who the best SF ever. His game was similar to West but 6’7 and a better FT%. Controversial, cerebral and iconic. Had so much game he had to share what was left with his sons… 1x Champ 1x FMVP 23. Kevin Garnett - The Big Ticket. The 00’ Giannis. In every way but he had a better jumper midrange and beyond. KG was a monstrosity on OFF/DEF in his prime much like his modern comparison. Led the TWolves to relevance and led the 08’ Celtics to a chip. Truly the BIG TICKET. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 1x MVP 24. Dirk Nowitzki - DIGGLER. The one and only. The German Bird. THE Maverick. Dirk is one of the most beloved, iconic and acclaimed players ever. The 00’s stretch big supreme. Dirk was able to take the Mavs to immortality over 11’ Heat in arguably the most surprising run ever. Only Dirk. Forever the DIGGLER. Arguably, the GOAT Euro player. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 1x MVP 25. Bob Pettit - Big Blue was the first stretch 4 in the games history. That’s for starters. Pettit was a tenacious rebounder and highly skilled scorer. He was much akin to K. Love of his era but in better shape and played defense. Think a smaller Dirk who grabbed boards like Love but in the 50’s-60’s era. Not only that, much like Dirk, Pettit lead a historic upset over Russell’s Celtics. A true champ. 1x Champ 1x FMVP 2x MVP 26. Dwayne Wade - The Flash. Wade County. The greatest Heat in NBA history. Wade is arguably the best defensive player at his position and easily too3 (MJ, Kobe). Led the Heat to a title in 06’ in historic fashion against Dirks Mavs. Then winning a couple more as LBJ’s Pippen. His career was like Kobe’s… in reverse. Wade’s early injuries reduced his maximum career output but yet here he is… says a ton. 3x Champ 1x FMVP 27. Elgin Baylor - The PROTOTYPE. Before West, Julius, Thompson, Wilkins, MJ, Hardaway, Kobe, Carter, TMac, Wade, Ant etc There was Elgin Baylor. The first Air, the first Mamba, the first Half Man/Amazing, Flash etc Baylor spearheaded an era that hardly wanted his talents there but had no other choice but to be in awe of it. Think Harden, in shape but not as good of a playmaker, twice the rebounder and a better defender. That’s Elgin. *left a season before historic LAL title win 28. David Robinson - The Admiral. The USA’s biggest weapon in the 90’s was also one of the greatest ever. Made the spurs relevant pre-Duncan and post. Has some of the greatest seasons statistically. Think Giannis but 7’2 with a lefty and 15 footer plus an even better defender. 2x Champ 1x MVP 29. Karl Malone - the Mailman was LBJ minus the handles and vision. King of the pick n roll. 1x MVP 30. Charles Barkley - The Round Mound of Rebound was the Tasmanian devil in a basketball jersey. Prime 25 5 13 guy. Impact everywhere he went. OG DREAMTEAM member by the way… 1x MVP 30 (?) Clyde Drexler - The Glide. One of the most useful all around talents in nba history. One of the greatest two way players ever. Helped every squad he went to become a contender. 1x Champ * HONORABLE MENTION: McHale, Nash, Harden, Parker, CP3, Stockton, Walton, Payton, Westbrook, Drexler, Ewing, Sam Jones, Cousy, Pierce, Iverson, McAdoo, Frazier, Unsled, Reed, Webber, English, A. Davis ^GIVE HONEST FEEDBACK CRITIQUE ATTEMPTING A PERFECT TOP30
This is so utterly wrong & diabolical that I'm not even gonna entertain or argue with you about this, the consensus top 2 has always & will be mj & lebron & imma tell you why lebron is above mj. Both had amazing careers But both had their own flaws so that's what I'm only arguing about because as much stat you put on here it doesn't really matter Mj played in a watered down League with no all time great & all the all time greats retiring, he played in a time of extension teams, lowering the talent pool. he got lucky & played in a competent organization who built an actual contender around him. A complete 180° of what lebron had to go through in his 1st stint in Cleveland, Cleveland probably just wanted to save money, & turned against him when he actually went to a competent organization Lebron's biggest flaw on the other hand is his finals record & his 2011 performance & I'm only here to give context to his finals Record 2007 & 2018 = this shouldnt even be entertained. laughing stock of a supporting cast, dragged them all the way there, Prime Lebron. 2011 = his fault, although he was still adjusting 2014 = not his fault, played a good series, Wade's knees fell out 2017 = Prime Dynasty Warriors, Not His Fault As Well, Played Arguably His Best Series In Terms Of Pure Traditional Stats, Cleveland Wasn't Up To Par With The Warriors 2015 = 1st Year Back, Dragged Them All The Way There Already, Not His Fault Again, Amazing Series He Had
So 2k and i can almost prove you as well fix these to make your point man kimda not as cool to watch knowing that but heres why you have mike 10 time all defensive team whne hes defendimg alot of the shots its one hand up after shot is off so your telling me an all defensive team player doesnt defend anymore come on now i onow hamd checking changed but to keep havimg him do it is foul ok second point you have mike who went up against alot of big guys and true defenders karl Malone rodman back in the bad boy era whoch dont get me started on but anyway you have him gettimg clamped down in a league where defense isnt a thing and acting as if he is scared to drive to the hole and also shows you must change difficulty based on the store you want to tell all defensive player cant defend yet guys that dont know defense can stop scoring title winner how many times in a league easier to score 2k and my guess you as well are playimg jordan so hard kinda sad bro
@@2lilwoohoo so, i literally have no control over any of what you just talked about lmao. That’s just the 2K gameplay simulating the game. I have ZERO intervention whatsoever
@AlanSimulations in 2k you can change the way it plays in simulation difficulty and stuff like that we don't see your hands or what you see on your screen and with editing you can make any story you want I edit my videos over my phone and I could do it and I suck at editing
In my opinion Lebron is the goat in my opinion, Bron is an all around do it all unselfish player who beats jordan in every category except scoring because jordan won 6 chips off literally basically scoring 40 points per game and plus the 90s wasn’t full of elite superstars all stars and actual stars like the modern nba, if you wanna argue with me Then Read the In my opinion again because Im not trying to argue

This NBA ESPN all content people got to realize that these sports are not getting better cause know one comes from a struggle they have no heart all wannabes
Dude do you realize that Jordan averaged 28. points per game as a Rookie in a much more Physical stacked and harder NBA??? You are so biased and hate Jordan so much don't you ? Jordan in today's modern era as a Rookie would easily average 31 points or more. Every time out you do a Jordan video you set his player rating so low that it's absurd and hilariously pathetic and so easy to see that you Hate the Guy... but won't admit it.
@@AlanSimulations 2k is woke and sucks like Disney does. bunch of snowflakes running the show that have no clue as to real stats or abilities. They ruined all my comic books too with limp wristed Super Heroe's. You still have no excuse Every pro in his era that played with him or against him say he'd score 40 plus points per season. I say if he wanted he could average 50. You have no clue like all these Gen Z casuals think.. I've seen Jordan Play in Person twice.. he is Supernatural.
I just realized that Jordan would probably have a different hairstyle in the modern era.
Probably haha

Even though I already gave you ideas on another vid you did on what if teams like the Kings don’t move out of KC, this Jordan in Modern NBA inspired me to give you more ideas for future videos. Keep up the great work as always.
- What if the 1992 Dream Team was a real NBA team and played against some of the greatest NBA teams ever?
-What if Len Bias had lived? What would his career have looked like?
-What if Magic and Bird played their entire careers together on the same team as teammates?

*left a season before historic LAL title win
28. David Robinson - The Admiral.
The USA’s biggest weapon in the 90’s was also one of the greatest ever.
Made the spurs relevant pre-Duncan and post. Has some of the greatest seasons statistically. Think Giannis but 7’2 with a lefty and 15 footer plus an even better defender.
2x Champ 1x MVP
29. Karl Malone - the Mailman was LBJ minus the handles and vision.
King of the pick n roll.
1x MVP
30. Charles Barkley - The Round Mound of Rebound was the Tasmanian devil in a basketball jersey.
Prime 25 5 13 guy.
Impact everywhere he went.
OG DREAMTEAM member by the way…
1x MVP
30 (?) Clyde Drexler - The Glide. One of the most useful all around talents in nba history. One of the greatest two way players ever. Helped every squad he went to become a contender.
1x Champ
* HONORABLE MENTION:
McHale, Nash, Harden, Parker, CP3, Stockton, Walton, Payton, Westbrook, Drexler, Ewing, Sam Jones, Cousy, Pierce, Iverson, McAdoo, Frazier, Unsled, Reed, Webber, English, A. Davis
^GIVE HONEST FEEDBACK CRITIQUE ATTEMPTING A PERFECT TOP30
This is so utterly wrong & diabolical that I'm not even gonna entertain or argue with you about this, the consensus top 2 has always & will be mj & lebron & imma tell you why lebron is above mj.
Both had amazing careers
But both had their own flaws so that's what I'm only arguing about because as much stat you put on here it doesn't really matter
Mj played in a watered down League with no all time great & all the all time greats retiring, he played in a time of extension teams, lowering the talent pool. he got lucky & played in a competent organization who built an actual contender around him. A complete 180° of what lebron had to go through in his 1st stint in Cleveland, Cleveland probably just wanted to save money, & turned against him when he actually went to a competent organization
Lebron's biggest flaw on the other hand is his finals record & his 2011 performance & I'm only here to give context to his finals Record
2007 & 2018 = this shouldnt even be entertained. laughing stock of a supporting cast, dragged them all the way there, Prime Lebron.
2011 = his fault, although he was still adjusting
2014 = not his fault, played a good series, Wade's knees fell out
2017 = Prime Dynasty Warriors, Not His Fault As Well, Played Arguably His Best Series In Terms Of Pure Traditional Stats, Cleveland Wasn't Up To Par With The Warriors
2015 = 1st Year Back, Dragged Them All The Way There Already, Not His Fault Again, Amazing Series He Had
MJ is the goat ain't no allegedly
W
In my opinion bron is
realisticly prime jordan is averaging 15.5 ppg 6.7 rpg 4.8 ASP 1.2 SPG 1.0 BPG 42 FG% 26% from three
Kobe shot .02% better then Mike at 3, if Kobe dominated by stealing all his moves in this generation, MJ would still dominate
@ mj was a horrible shooter from 3 the defense and offense is more talented at most mj would be a taller and less efficient Derrick white
Realistcily prime Jordan that you like it or not is avg 36ppg 7apg 6rpg 1.5steal 1 bpg 52%fg and 35%from 3 ( he would adapt to the three point era )
Jordan is the best player ever that you like it or not and he also has the best prime peak in basketball history
@@rtx9430 but he wouldn’t the best scorers don’t even average 36 Jordan wouldn’t adapt to this era
More Michael Jordan video
Gotcha!
This bias ass staged video lmao the hate on mj be real 🤣🤣
So 2k and i can almost prove you as well fix these to make your point man kimda not as cool to watch knowing that but heres why you have mike 10 time all defensive team whne hes defendimg alot of the shots its one hand up after shot is off so your telling me an all defensive team player doesnt defend anymore come on now i onow hamd checking changed but to keep havimg him do it is foul ok second point you have mike who went up against alot of big guys and true defenders karl Malone rodman back in the bad boy era whoch dont get me started on but anyway you have him gettimg clamped down in a league where defense isnt a thing and acting as if he is scared to drive to the hole and also shows you must change difficulty based on the store you want to tell all defensive player cant defend yet guys that dont know defense can stop scoring title winner how many times in a league easier to score 2k and my guess you as well are playimg jordan so hard kinda sad bro
@@2lilwoohoo so, i literally have no control over any of what you just talked about lmao. That’s just the 2K gameplay simulating the game. I have ZERO intervention whatsoever
@AlanSimulations in 2k you can change the way it plays in simulation difficulty and stuff like that we don't see your hands or what you see on your screen and with editing you can make any story you want I edit my videos over my phone and I could do it and I suck at editing
In my opinion Lebron is the goat in my opinion, Bron is an all around do it all unselfish player who beats jordan in every category except scoring because jordan won 6 chips off literally basically scoring 40 points per game and plus the 90s wasn’t full of elite superstars all stars and actual stars like the modern nba, if you wanna argue with me Then Read the In my opinion again because Im not trying to argue
There was plenty of talent in the 80s and 90s.
@ not compared to the modern era, shai embiid jokic giannis tatum brown bron steph durant dbook ant man d mitch ja morant trae young lamelo ball de’aaron fox domantis sabonis jalen brunson luka doncic Tyrese Haliburton Cade Cunningham Victor Wembanyama etc
Luv vids but yu put ant ja n wemby who are in the west while bulls n jordan are east they wouldn't see each other until finals
The modern player is garbage all overrated Ant no D no heart these players are spoon feed like know other sport. People are not watching cause there not as athletic or strong this is a generation that has men becoming women and women thinking they men so ya the NBA is like that hands down now. This NBA ESPN all content people got to realize that these sports are not getting better cause know one comes from a struggle they have no heart all wannabes
Dude do you realize that Jordan averaged 28. points per game as a Rookie in a much more Physical stacked and harder NBA??? You are so biased and hate Jordan so much don't you ? Jordan in today's modern era as a Rookie would easily average 31 points or more. Every time out you do a Jordan video you set his player rating so low that it's absurd and hilariously pathetic and so easy to see that you Hate the Guy... but won't admit it.
@@MISHKAJAI i literally just use his rookie player straight off 2K. I don’t choose his points per game he averages. Take it up with 2k lol
@@AlanSimulations 2k is woke and sucks like Disney does. bunch of snowflakes running the show that have no clue as to real stats or abilities. They ruined all my comic books too with limp wristed Super Heroe's. You still have no excuse Every pro in his era that played with him or against him say he'd score 40 plus points per season. I say if he wanted he could average 50. You have no clue like all these Gen Z casuals think.. I've seen Jordan Play in Person twice.. he is Supernatural.
Jordan played in an era with no talent… yall confused it with being harder it wasn’t
@@jefeseason4990 casual just look up who he played played against
Can y'all just appreciate greatness and grow tf up🙄
