People didn't watch old footage until ESPN classic sometime in the 90s. You just took peoples word.


However with more access to footage due to Internet....why crap on the 90s player? No one can doubt dreaming shake Hakeem being skilled.


Hakeems highlight reels >>>>>>> 99 % of most NBA players

I said it before but this season really is make or break perception wise for Ant. He literally had face of the league on lock until that Dallas series. Since then from multiple alleged kids to Olympic comments & now this. His team is failing him

He had the older fan & younger fans all rooting for him. Breh just gotta be quiet lol

I disagree if ant can get league mvp by getting the top winning record and strong ppg and good defense that can help him just as well as getting to the finals. its not like tatum that has a championship already on a very good team that were the strong favourites. If he leads the league with scoring and first team all defense thats face of the league

The NBA has done a shyt job of letting the youth know of its older players.

Got NFL players to this day still bringing up Walter Payton and Jerry Rice as GOATs.

Ant is a buffoon for this but it also highlights a bigger problem.

NBA is the only league that shyts on its past

It’s also the only league that consistently shyts on the current to hype up the past

This is a natural reaction. Older fans & older players can’t keep shytting on the new gen and not expect them to take shots back :manny:

The tribalism over different NBA eras is among the most bizarre shyt in sports
