In before everyone comes on here talmbout another old head complaining.. he's right though, shyt is hard to watch these days, dudes out here basically shooting warmup jumpers in games like Thomas said, and we been knowing that most big men in the NBA are trash
I want you to watch Bernard King 60 point game and tell me if it isn't the same thing if not worse

they have already tied the record number of 50 point games (8) this season with 50 games left and that record was set last season. That Bernard King game was special and is still talked about. I had already forgot about Jimmy's and Isaiah's 50 point games:mjshrug1:

Isiah has a point though, I remember Westbrook and rondo blasting on the glass like :dwillhuh:

They like 6'7 on the court.

It's all offense as the league toned down on defense they sped up the game to make it faster and provide more highlights but the real heads don't like the softness.

It makes sense though. These days there's stretch 4's and 5's. Why not let the playmaker get the rebound so he can push the floor while the big guys can get set. It's more entertaining. Ya'll wanna watch half court offenses all day but nowadays the game is way more fast paced. It's all about transition offense. Plus in the playoffs it'll slow down anyway when defenders are much more disciplined. bytchin just to bytch

:camby: Paul George in the second half took that shyt personally and was guarding Klay hard as fukk, it didn't matter. Players are much much better shooters than we had 20-25 years ago. The game is never going back to the days of 83-85 scores. Sick of these dudes repeating the same outdated tired ass viewpoints

The 80s Zeke starred in had barely any defensive only specialists as players. If you were a Kelly Tripuka type who averaged 27 ppg with Zeke and could shoot, you got burn.
