Baron Davis: There's a huge disconnect between NBA Generations

He makes a great point. Alot of the newer generation doesn't respect the older legends as much as they should
They paved the way for what the NBA has become

Some of the young players think they can talk out the side of their neck at these legends
shyt, I was born in 1990, and I made sure I knew all about my legends from 1960 till now

Shaq on his period AGAIN

The old generation always on some back in my day shyt, they don't respect young players either.

It's the same thing in hip-hop for example Lil Yachty vs. Joe Budden really you see it in all aspects of life in general how much flack do "milennials" get from the older generation.

 

[Frump]

Millenials are the most self absorbed generation ever

Not all their fault. If u grew up in the social media era it's hard not to have an inflated sense of self worth

 

[Costanza]

When the conversation is centered around Shaq sonnin mcgee over and over you can miss me with that... I love chuck and Ernie but shaq is a jabroni

Yeah, unlike the totally selfless gen x-ers, the yuppies of the 80s, and the oh so grounded baby boomers

Lil Yachty is garbage though

 

[scrt]

why show them respect when all they do is talk down. coming from ass eras playing vs part time chefs and have the nerve to talk shyt about the incredible athletes of today.

 

[Scottie Drippin]

It goes both ways. These old dudes don't open up their mouths to say anything positive about younger players, and it was the same for the players before them.

 

[Frump]

Didn't realize you were a millennial. Thought u were old

 

[King Poetic]

This will be no different in 15 to 20 years from any of u nikkas

Same nikkas complaining will be the same ones talking about joe so and so couldn't hold james harden shoes back in my day or who is this bum they comparing to lebron or steph..

It's just a cycle nobody brings up

 

[Walt]

It doesn't have anything at all to do with a generational disconnect. The question was stupid. Barkley has been denigrating the Warriors for 3 years now, and is associated with another former player who has targeted one of Dray's teammates. Of course he gave an emphatic no. Not to mention their games bear zero resemblance. One dude is a once in a lifetime athletic freak who dominated around the paint. The other dude is an all world defender who can step outside and hit the 3. The only similarity is they are both shyt-talkers. So?

Agreed. The entitlement nowadays is beyond insane.

 

[Sauce Dab]

Legends of 1960?




Everybody doesn't need or deserve recognition like that.

Jackie Robinson, Bill Russell etc. get the

But not some random player who just played back in the day :6FraudCamby:

These old dudes sound entitled trying to talk about entitlement :6FraudCamby:

I'm 33. I dont have a fukkin clue what I am

 

[IllmaticDelta]

It's always been like that. Dudes like Oscar and Wilt openly stated and thought their era was better than the era of Bird/Magic and the 80's guys thought their era was better than the 90's, Jordan era.
