Yeah. And a +300 points win by the Rookies.

Who knows? The legends could mentally destroy them. Magic could run a slowed-down half court offense, and he still plays basketball, it's not like he's 70. We know Malone, Robinson, Rodman, Reggie, Stockton, and Jordan can still play, they barely retired a couple years back and were playing at a high level when they did...Barkely wanted to make a comeback 2 years ago, Hakeem can still play, Pippen only retired from injuries, I dunno if Isaiah Thomas, James Worthy, and Dominque Wilkins can still play, but they're not THAT old. The only real problem I see is Kareem Abdul-Jabar. He's old and would probably only be able to play 10 mins max. I know he can still sky-hook over muthafuckaz (he's been teaching Bynum), but he'd probably be slow as hell running back down on defense. I'd start him just for the honor and to see him sky-hook over some rookies, then sit him down and bring D. Robinson in. Larry Bird, as well, he currently looks like he'd have a heart attack running the court, but I'd play him 10-15 minutes max, let him get some touches from downtown, and sit him out...I think the legends wouldn't let themselves go out easy, remember, basketball is just as much mental as it is physical...PeACe

yeah, the rookies could run and gun. But that would be their ONLY chance. Plus, like u said the mental side. Some of these guys would be in awe.
hisairness:
The rookie game should be brought back.
For a while they were tossing around the idea of doing an NBA allstar vs. World allstar, don't know if that is still on the table or not, but it could be interesting.
