In the current NBA, Kobe Bryant would become a top player thanks to his competitive edge and unmatched ability on the court. His unmatchable skills and his competitiveness would establish him as a league-leading athlete. His ability to transform and adjust to current gameplay would keep him at the top of his competitive level.
 
Ronaldo de Lima is the most versatile striker during his time. He is a terror to defenders and goalkeepers as well. He is phenomenal then when football have more quality and strong players. His early retirement was caused by mutiple injuries which undoubtedly was caused by defenders who he keep mesmerizing with his speed and skills. If it is today, he would have overshadowed Messi and Christian Ronaldo put together!
 
Today Kobe Bryant and Ronaldo de Lima would remain unmatched leaders in their respective sports. Ronaldo's quickness and his exceptional skills and powerful goal-scoring power would position him ahead of players like Messi and Ronaldo of today.

It is true that Ronaldo de Lima would be a nightmare for all the defenders. He has the pace, power and control and he has the skill to dribble any defender.
 
I could see Kobe, Allen iverson and Michael jordan dominating in today's Nba landscape.

Too old, and not big enough. If Kobe was still alive, maybe.

Shaq though, definitely could still dominate the NBA.

Michael jordan only 62 lol. He can probably still ball. You don't lose your ball handles at an old age. He was still dropping 22 points a game with the Wizards at 38 and 39.

If they were in their prime, different story. Nobody could defeat Kobe, nor jordan. Kobe and Jordan would be running circles around current players. Same with Shaq. Allen Inverson would be crossing up a lot of current players as well. Lebron would be trying to flop against kobe and jordan, same with shaq.

Most certainly in the present game, legends like Kobe, Jordan, and Shaq would still stand out. Their crazy skills would allow them to find a way to fit in. Other all-time greats such as Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar would still shine as well.

When you talk of pace, skills, balance and shooting ability for a striker, there is yet to be a striker in this generation that can match Ronaldo. This was a striker that can dribble. Something most strikers don't know how to do now. I believe that Ronaldo would score a ton of goals in football today that goals are very cheap
