How the hell do i stop Michael Jordan?

[OGKing]

Playing with the Bad Boy Pistons..for the fourth time in a week. Lost all games to the bulls, close games.

Last one was tied at 94 until Jordan hit the game winner on me, a fadeaway from the post, i was devastated.

It seems as if, i can't stop him no matter what i do, he always score 40+ on me, no joke.

Any tips on how to stop Jordan?

inb4someone says "he can't be stopped"

Damnation! I was certainly going to say that

But, in all seriousness. Deny him the ball (Play Off Ball if you have to). Deny. Deny. Deny. If he manages to get the ball anyway immedately double-team him. Once he has the ball in his hands bring a manual defender over and hit the double team button. Thus he is either forced to pass it, or he might break through anyway. If that's the case give him a free-lane, then either beat him there or switch over to the big man and stop his progress before he can attack the basket. You should force a contested shot.

Double him in the post always, force him to shoot jumpers. If he's making those...I'm sorry...there's really nothing you can do aside from editing all of Jordan's attributes down to 25....

As Craig Ehlo.

Or maybe Bryan Russell.

There's a reason he's considered the greatest basketball player of all time. If there were a technique, or way of "stopping" him, I'd consider the game broke.

He's supposed to be difficult to stop. Embrace it.

Ask MJ to compete in baseball instead....

...or even better - use the bat to break his legs.

This. Same applies to any "How do I stop..." thread.

attack him on defense and hope to draw some fouls. If he is on the bench he can't hurt you

Well guys, back from my game results. I tried, i honestly did but...i couldn't do it...

The bulls won 114 - 109.

Michael Jordan had 44 points..despite Thomas scoring 47..

At least it was a good game. I'll try again when i redeem my morale
