John Thompson Sr. had it right. He’d be “Floor Jordan” not Air Jordan

The question of whether Jordan at age 50 could be a competent player seems to take the focus off a more interesting question: Will Jordan become a competent front-office exec before (or after) he turns 60?

I’ll take the over…

Yeah one on one against Bobcats is one thing but what about Kobe or Wade guarding him.
I’m sure he could hit some jumpers and probably go to the hole against the Bobcats but against
some twenty year old, I wouldn’t count him out.

Jordan had to work his ass off to produce for the Wizards and he still was a fine player,if not but a shadow of his former self. No doubt a quality point guard with multiple options could make Jordan’s life wonderful.His turnaround remains virtually unstoppable,however(extremely) limited his move to the basket. Open jumpers and ,turn around post ups and still a very smart team defender….. With so many yim yaps collecting checks (as ever)the idea that a smart and effective scorer like MJ could not give 10 quality minutes a night as an effective alternative to many,many NBA players is silly…..

Or maybe he didn’t forget to mention it because it’s a given. Name one perennial all-star who hasn’t benefited from the same?

Just like the current Celtics team , beating much younger players in OT games. Get WADA to investigate for EPOs !!!

Chuck Norris almost beat Jordan 1-on-1 the other day. Almost.

Jordan would start for the bulls at 60. Their sg situation is the worse. Coach doesn’t wanna play butler to many minutes. This guy gonna get better for another team see asik for the rockets. I like the coach but he’s so stubborn.

the suns should sign him, we’d finally have a reliable scorer

You mean the year he turned 40 and averaged 20 points a game?
Yeah, but I get your point.

…Antawn Jamison forgot to mention that all of those 10 or 11 points would come at the foul line due to Jordan worshipping refs getting blue in the face from blowing their whistles so much when Jordan has the ball.

Same thing happens with stars in the game today

Smart move by Jamison, he’s guaranteed a final contract with the Bobcats if no one else is interested.

He wasn’t exactly surrounded with talent when he was on the Wizards & was double teamed.

If Jordan was doing was Sylvester Stallone was doing and using HGH, Jordan could still hang with these guys… hell, he could probably go on an HGH / Testosterone regiment for 8 months to a year and go back to being 35 again.

If we ever see a Jordan comeback, you know he read this comment and went and got himself an HGH doctor. lol

I seeem to remember tHere used to be an old timers game in the NBA but it was discontinued because old bodies were not meant to play Balll at a high level. Even on a very low level – I quit a few years ago playing with much younger folks as I knew I would hurt myself.

His last year in the NBA he could barely move. Today he is overweight and slower I might add.
