In an interview with USA Today's Game Hunters Blog, NBA legend Michael Jordan discussed the new NBA 2K11 video game released earlier this week and talked about the changes in the NBA.
When asked about how the game has changed since he played, Jordan brought up rule changes and the lack of physicality in the game.
"It's less physical and the rules have changed, obviously," Jordan said. "Based on these rules, if I had to play with my style of play, I'm pretty sure I would have fouled out or I would have been at the free throw line pretty often and I could have scored 100 points."
The most Jordan had ever scored in a game was 69 in 1990 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Kobe Bryant scored 81 points against the Toronto Raptors in 2006.
(Via Ball Don't Lie)
Quick PollCould Michael Jordan score 100 points in the NBA today?

Maybe if he was playing a team that wasn't that good and they began to watch him score and stop playing, then he could easily do. PoliticalMMA: I love Money, but lets be real.
