It's doubly funny because Luka and a lot of the international players publicly talk about how much easier it is to score in the NBA vs. overseas because of the non-existent defense and lack of physicality allowed. Even the players benefitting the most have no trouble admitting how the changes in officiating and rules make "the premier league on Earth" largely a joke nowadays, especially in the regular season. :pachaha: Shame their idiot stans aren't half as self aware as they are and unironically try to spin it like it's a good thing :unimpressed:
U have failed to contextualize their statements just the same way as y’all projecting your thoughts and feelings onto Pop’s statement.

"Basketball in EuroLeague, it's more team basketball, it's more tactics, and you have less time," Doncic said. "NBA is tougher to play because you have many players that are basically impossible to guard. But I would say that scoring is easier in the NBA just because of the different rules. The amount of space, the time, so that's why I said it's easier to score in the NBA."

"Scoring 30 points in a EuroLeague game, it's harder than in an NBA game, 100% percent. I'm just saying this because of the rules."

Contextualize??? :mjlol: READ WHAT THE PLAYER SAID VERBATIM STRAIGHT OUTTA HIS MOUTH CLOWN. There's only one person here projecting their personal feelings onto this statement goofball :unimpressed:

U stupid mothafukka read the statement. Context.

Scoring is easier in the NBA because players have more talent. He is talking about “space and time”. The pace and space of the game which is different in EuroLeague because those cacs aren’t as good as American players. Goofy everything is different from the size of the ball, to the key, to the clock, to players goaltending shots, to the way rotations are made.

Y’all are SLOW.

Teams used to make the playoffs with records that were 5-10 games under .500, yet somehow this era isn’t competitive. Imagine that happening today.


that was only in the East, and guys like @ISO used to defend that to protect Bron and his easy playoff runs because the east was trash

No, it wasn't only in the east. This is why conversations on here go nowhere because 85% have no idea what you are talking about and have no understanding of the facts and history.

Stop with the conspiracies. :mjlol:

Most of the rule changes are rooted in black innovation of the game.

If it was made for Europeans to thrive then why aren’t the rules identical to those in Europe. :mjlol:
That’s my whole point all you did was word it differently :gucci:

The problem is shaq would have to get a jumper if he going to consistently be on the floor

Why when he can overpower most bigs on the block and the ones he can't he had enough skill and touch to still score on. Plus he creates double and triple teams allowing him to kick it out for wide open shots.
