    Haha, I dunno how quick Arenas is now, but it is hard to imagine a 50 year old guarding a 30 year old who still plays semi-professional basketball. Jordan could kill him on offense, he wouldn't even have to drive, he could just shoot jump shot after jump shot.


    This would actually be really entertaining to watch, if Jordan wasn't such a egomaniac, it would be awesome to see at like an All-Star game or something. Legends vs. retirees.

    Why the hell is he talking **** to a 50 year old Michael Jordan? His ass can't even get back into the NBA.

    Dumbass.

    Knee injuries and the guns in the locker room incident.

    It's a shame since he was a great scorer in his prime and was one of my favorite players growing up. The unlimited range on his jumpshot was straight sexy.

    Arenas might be on something, he's pretty loaded, and he's a deadly shooter.

    Arenas, if he gets his head straight and at least 75% of his game can be a good fit. Imagine him instead of Lin receiving those 3 pts freebies... That said, I'm just dreaming.

    Random thought:

    I would pay good money to see a prime Ryan Bowen play a game of 21 against a 50 year old Jordan. Morbid curiosity I suppose.
