I'm with you on that. I thoroughly enjoyed Jordan's Wizards days. He was mortal, and maybe that added to my ability to pull for him as an underdog of sorts, but it was awesome watching him for those moments (more than a few) when he put the new generation on notice. Every time he did something spectacular, it was special. Perhaps my favorite:
That said, yeah, those Wizards probably won't get a classic look and perhaps rightfully so. I remember using them back in '02 and I used them when portlandblazer used to make awesome rosters and while it was fulfilling to control old MJ, that cupboard was pretty bare. If he and Hamilton were on the bench at the same time, it became the Chris Whitney and Popeye Jones show.

With news of custom defensive schemes for classic teams this year, I'm hoping Larry Brown's 2004 Pistons half-court trap and Lindsey Hunter & Mike James' full court prowl make it in (52 second mark and 5:00):
