As for "greatest in the generation" that'll be a team thing, and he needs the rings, but on an individual player basis, I think he has the potential to put up some of the greatest #s we've ever seen


Just for kicks, I actually went and looked up Jordan's seasons after you mentioned the one. It's just amazing. I'm 40, so I grew up watching Jordan and even I forgot the insane #'s he put up.

87-88- 35.0/5.5/5.9/3.2spg and 1.6bpg (combined 4.8).. 54%fg playing all 82 games

That's just craziness. I don't think anyone will put up #'s like that again..

I don't want AD to become a perimeter player either. One of his most impressive natural skills is the ability to finish at the basket and draw the foul, give me a 3 point play with the opposing big picking up a foul before giving me a 3 pointer. That being said, AD is a unique talent like LeBron and looks like he'll be able to score from anywhere on the floor. I think you want him to be capable of shooting 3s not so it becomes part of his game like Kevin Love, but so he can make his teammates better when he doesn't have the ball, in the example I gave earlier, playing off the Tyreke/Asik P&R.
