Tom Tolbert: Wiz related

Here is a question he answered on his NBA chat. I think he is right on the money when it comes to evaluating MJ:

(Boston): Hi Tom, How do you think the Wizards look lately, especially that "old man"? Seems MJ can still light up 85% of the league even at (almost) 40. By the way, I think you should challenge Bill Walton to a one-on-one. Then he'll leave alone!

Tom Tolbert: (1:02 PM ET ) Yeah, it's amazing what MJ is able to do. I have said since he came back last year, he is still a very good player. The only unfortunate thing is the only thing you can can compare him to is himself and you can't be better at 40 than you were at 35. You look at his numbers and you might not thing he is doing great, but you are comparing him to the old MJ. He is still a great player but I don't see them making a run in the playoffs.

MJ at 40 years old is still better than 95% of the players in the NBA today. I say that because of his skills, knowledge, and consistency in his offense and defense.
