      It seems it's getting worse every year. They don't bring their A game because they are already millionaires with a few years contract. Just not fair for those who buy tickets and have subscription. They paid to watch a circus. FIBA and college basketball have more quality than today's NBA.

      There is no Kobe and Jordan.
      It's Michael Jordan.
      Michael Jordan was far better, greater and superior than the inefficient rabid chucker Kobe Bryant.
      Kobe never shot 50% in his career. The following year after Jordan averaged 37 PPG, he averaged 35 PPG at 53.5 FG%. Kobe wasn’t on that level. Jordan averaged 30+ ppg for 7 straight years while 5 of them were above 50%.
      In 1985, rookie Michael Jordan averaged:
      28.2 PPG
      6.5 RPG
      5.9 APG
      51% FG
      Kobe’s MVP season in 2008 averaged:
      28.3 PPG
      6.3 RPG
      5.4 APG
      45% FG
      Jordan in his rookie year had a better season than Kobe in his MVP season!
      They both played 82 games
      Michael Jordan, not only won 10x regular season scoring titles, but he also led 10x in playoffs PPG
      Kobe has shot 41.5% or less in 5/7 NBA Finals
      Seasons shooting 50% or more
      Jordan - 6
      Kobe - 0
      Kobe has the most missed shots in NBA history
      1. Kobe Bryant 14,481
      Rabid Chucker Extraordinaire
      2. John Havlicek 13,417

It just happens that there wasn't as much marketing BS and political BS in the league back then. The game was still the priority. And also players were more mature and professional. That's why guys like T.Mac, and coach Monty Williams said that the difference between Jordan and Lebron is that Jordan dominated a league of men, while Lebron has dominated a league of children. That has nothing to do with your theory.

    This is when I really, really started to fall in love with the NBA as a 13 year old kid. This game sealed the deal for Kobe to be my favorite player (that is... until an electric, high-flying, half-man, half-amazing player named Vince Carter came to the league the following season).

    It is so comforting to watch this, an NBA All-Star game stacked with talent, and the talent is actually competing. This is a breath of fresh air, and I actually have to go backwards and relive it again in order to achieve this. I'm sitting here watching the NBA's elite players of the time (some of ALL time) and I'm hearing catchphrases like "lots of contact,no call on that one"--while watching these guys make legitimate plays in the interest of winning the game, not just looking good.
