Ban the Zone and bring back original NBA Rules of No Zone, strictly Man on Man with double or triple team D.

Ban the zone and bring back handchecking, making the player's bodies tougher than this injury-prone load-management quality of players who are supposed to be stronger, faster, and more athletic as these milllenials claim to be. The pace is faster today because of 3-pt shooting, but when the shooting is bad, it makes for bad basketball. The players today shoot so many 3 pointers that when you watch them play and move in half court sets, they are slower than what we are seeing in this video. Today's NBA is not exciting at all.

Yeah MJ caught the hot hand after those first few misses but this is why I say there's never gonna be another dynamic duo like Jordan and Pippin combined points 86 out of the 117 thats F**KN crazy and your talking about the playoffs and Jordans averaging 40ppg that's like a ⅓ of the points of a high scoring game back then and to think Mike and Scottie hit 86 come on now no wonder why they retired Jordans Jersey in Miami too imo nobody should be able to wear the number 23 ever on any team

I have no doubt that Jordan would have averaged 49 in today's game, seeing that the three-pointer is so much emphasized. Jordan would have worked on that part of his game, and would have been far more dangerous!!

I always find 20th century NBA games more fun to watch as there were more One on One scoring sessions then today s NBA mostly Jump Shots and few one on one plays to the Hoop. The 1 on 1 plays are there today and always fun to watch but over all today s game too much Zone with many jump shots. Rule changes..

It seemed so crowded comparing to the games in recent years.
