Lip this link went to a video of a mock draft. I didn't watch the whole thing but I don't think MJ was in it. :)

Crap! I did something wrong. I'm technologically challenged. If MJ is in the draft, the Wolves should trade up to get him. :)

Well, I did watch the video...now we know the Wolves are picking Walker Kessler. I guess that frees up my night 6/23.

Got you covered, Lip. I think this is the video you wanted to post.

Lol. That's not the one I meant. But I watched it. If those are the worst 10 things about MJ as a person, then he's a saint compared to most mega-celebrities.

Here's the video I meant to post:

Here's another one. It's fun to think of how unstoppable MJ would be in today's game without hand-checking and rules that have heavily skewed the game in favor of scoring.

The interview I posted a few months ago with Metta World Peace said Jordon was ridiculously strong. Remember MWP/Artest came into the league weighing at least 250 lbs and I think he said in the interview when he was his best he was playing at a higher weight than that. Dude was built he wasn't fat so MWP saying someone was strong...damn.

I think Michael Jordan would have been great in any era, but I don't think he would be any greater in this era than he was in his own. I think that because this era, in my opinion, is much bigger across the board and way more athletic. Not to mention, there's an increased dependence on actual skill versus bully ball and post work. What Jordan would gain from the rule changes he would lose going up against more imposing defenders and more comprehensive defensive schemes.

MJ is actually draft eligible this year. I kid you not. See link: https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Millan-Jimenez/Summary/136358
