They were less professional and more like cowboys, and they were hard as nails. This newer generation woukd absolutely destroy the older generation in terms skill and athleticism, but the older generation would destroy in terms of grit and resilience. They both have their pros and they both have their cons. That's why a great mix if the two is how you become loved by most fans, ie MJ and Kobe.

    I want people to stop saying Kobe was a mirror of MJ. Physically there’s no comparison. People don’t realize how strong MJ was. Not only that no one could grab a ball out of the air with 1 hand like a softball. We will start there. MJ had a 48 inch vertical. Still the highest vertical ever in the league. We’ve had some great leapers 5’9” and under. From Spud Webb to Nate Robinson that won multiple dunk contests between them. Jordan was 6’6” and jumped higher than those guys. He jump so high people literally talked about his hang time and how he floated in air til the defender hit the ground. My point is no one ever had that hang time. The guy in 87 that scored 38 ppg, defensive player of year, All everything else you can think of. Kobe is reminiscent of MJ after baseball. Thats where the comparison starts. When MJ lost some of that raw athleticism. MJ had handles but he didn’t have any wasted dribbles. He dribbles with purpose. People will say Kobe had a better handle which is fine but when Shaq left and Phil left the Lakers Kobe started that iso dribble where everyone watched him. Dribble without purpose is a team killer. Plus Kobe became that 2nd version of MJ when Phil came back to deliver him (2) more chips. The 1st version of Kobe was sooooo damn efficient. He averaged 25 with Shaq and was shooting maybe 15-18 times a game not 25-30. He was Batman and so was Shaq. They were equals. Kobe had to facilitate the offense at the end of the game cause of Shaq foul shooting. He was more Lebron than MJ with the defense of Scottie. I say Lebron cause he could take over a game when needed but facilitated like Scottie. I could go on but you’ll get it

      ​@@Idcaboutyourfeelings24He's not wrong tho. Kobe is by far the most skilled player in the league. Don't forget that Kobe played half of his career with injuries. He's the only NBA player who played with a broken hand, broken finger, torn shoulder, fractured knee and still better than the rest of the NBA players.

    That’s the thing LeBron is great, Jordan was different. Not even in the same league. Jordan in a sense was human. The gambling, cigars, the late nights, drinking and partying, playing with crackheads and junkies, showing up for 82 games. The two are not of the same cloth. Jordan is a top competitor, LeBron is a talent. A competitor is driven by something that’s not tangible. The entire nba is talented…

    Washington not having these amenities for their players to better compete and succeed until 2005 like Gil said is absolutely ridiculous.
