Only problem with that is, during a few of Pops championship runs, he compensated with Bruce Bowens offensive liability by converting him into a corner 3 shooter.

Can't have it both ways :francis:
Bowen shot 3 3's a game not 33 and it was if he was open, not just shoot 3' because they worth more than 2

too many blowouts too. this shyt ass now
What if I told you that statistically this is the closest games have ever been in NBA history?

And no this is not some advanced nerd stat but simple margin of victory often used by bettors. Simply the average of how much teams win/lose by every night.

Teams are winning by a smaller margin of victory than ever yet the prevailing narrative is that somehow there are too many blowouts.

Of course he hates modern day basketball. He doesn’t have Tim Duncan to carry him in the modern day.
Feels different when you ain't winning, don't it :ufdup:
I like pop but he just in his feelings cuz his team is ass now.
I guess you can say the game has passed him by :ehh:
Pop wasn't saying shyt when the NBA was letting him get away with all of those illegal scenes on those pick-n-rolls. :heh:


David Stern isn't here to save y'all anymore. :umad:
You could say he's been left behind......

No doubt. But the copycatting of everything is pathetic. If the 3 has gotten out of hand, eliminate the shortest distance one at least.

Interesting that the tweet didn’t mention him saying it was more difficult to play defense because of players being better shooters. That was conveniently left out:skip:
I was getting ready to ask if anyone actually watched the video because I was going to mention this.

Greg Anthony & Channing Frye mentioned before how it's harder to play defense now because you pretty much have to start guarding folks 38ft out because it's in some players' ranges now.

*EDIT* He also has to remember how majority of fans were calling his Spurs boring because of their low scoring, grind it out defensive style.

U slow or something?

Read the post and comprehend it the outcomes of today’s game, one singular night in the NBA, does not define the season in totality.

The fact is that teams are winning and losing games by a smaller margin than at any point in history.
