Good lord, you kids are the most sensitive people ever.

It fukkin pains you to your core that many older people might have a broader perspective on things than you do.

It's actually the EXACT opposite in this context. It's more a narrower perspective because past generations aren't too willing to accept change as being [potentially] better. *cues @gator_king and Generation Gay Marriage*. Unless basketball turns into some futuristic sport which strips it from all its human elements, players of today aren't going to be on their "well, back in my day" shyt - 20, 30 years down the line. I've said before, there's old heads and past players that don't hold the same position as Oscar does, who not only appreciate this Warriors team and the current state of the league itself, but for how far the game has come.

I know the coli has fallen off but :scust: at trying to clown a dude who averaged a triple double...for a season...

Whoever your current favorite nba player is he won't finish his career with as many triple doubles as Big O had in a row for 1 year :scust:

Older eras wasn't even making basketball plays :martin:
Throwing punches and elbows at somebody driving the lane is dumb. People are trying to watch basketball not MMA :camby:
Basketball is still a contact sport...at least it's suppose to be. The NBA is trying to take all contact out of the game.

These guys today wouldn't be as effective if they played back then.

Broader perspective? Nah. He, like thousands of other athletes, want to believe they were the best during the best era.

I played when honkeys told you to your face they would kill you, and I still averaged a triple double.

Yo real talk I couldn't imagine how lazy I would be on defense if there was no 3 point line
