lets think of one thing old school NBA does and new school NBA doesnt... Old School plays DEFENSE...

Peja is a shooter... alot of todays players are shooters... they rather cherrypick at the other end and wait for the ball.

Jordan was one of the best defensive players ever... Malone would limit Shaq... Malone would give him a few elbows right in the head and that will slow him down. Nobody want to mess with Malone's elbows.

Old School is so much tougher than New School... todays players sit out with a hang nail. Then you got Jordan who is throwing up all over himself go out and score 63pts vs the celtics.

I think this is a pretty easy decision.

All the old school players have rings to back it up... todays amazing players rarely have the rings to back it up since they are not team players. McGrady, Iverson, Garnett, etc...

One player I wish I could exclude from new school is Duncan... he was born in the wrong era. Duncan all he does is make his bankshots, plays amazing defense, and wins championships...

the old school team... Jordan, Bird, Isiah, Magic, Kareem, Hakeem... they all have MULTIPLY rings to back it up. Malone/Stockon should of had a ring but cant mess with the bulls. Why do you think the original dream team played so amazing. All the players knew how to play as a team.

The new school "dream team" barely wins a medal because they rather steal the ball from each other than share it.
