AI ACTUALLY played & was a superstar in BOTH eras (pre/post rule changes: illegal defense/zone/hand checking...etc).

Pre (no zone but hand-checking was legal): Averaged 31 (TS: 51%) in 2000-01 during his MVP season

Post (zone was allowed but no hand-checking): Averaged a CAREER-HIGH 33 (TS: 54%) as a 30 years old in 2005-06 RIGHT AFTER hand-checking was COMPLETELY outlawed
