    There is no "if." Of course these guys can still throw it down on a regulation goal.

    I believe Clyde was able to dunk on an 11 foot goal in the day. I'd say Glyde.

    I lol'd :D .

    On topic, I'd take Clyde because he seems to be in much better shape than Jordan.

    I don't think either Clyde or MJ could dunk right now. Did you watch Pros vs. Joes a few years ago with Clyde? He definitely couldn't dunk back then.

    Does anyone know who the oldest person to ever dunk was? Mario said Rudy could still do it when he was coaching, but it's unlikely he's the record holder. Kareem looks like he's still in pretty good shape... wonder if Dr. J can still do it.

    Jordan would win. Even if he misses all his dunks. Ask Dominique Wilkins.

    Clyde can still EASILY dunk, I watched him play one on one with his son a couple days ago... I see him work out at least twice a week and he's probably there when I'm not as well.

    I don't know anything about jordan's workouts but he looks a bit chunky in pictures.

    Jordan didn't have any more hops than Clyde back in the day, and I'd be willing to bet he's got significantly less than him now.. I'll take drexler

    I'd take Mike. He probably still plays every now and then, and I believe he'll practice some with the Bobcats from time to time.
