Walt keeps saying it every single game, boxing out is a lost art. Also with hese rules and better 3 pt shooting you can't camp in the lane. Even boxing out and fighting for the rebound might get you called for a foul now, whne it used to be lmuch less fouls called. So I guess everyone relies more on timing and positionning, 2 things that smaller players can also do, especially to steal rebounds or "sneak in".

Everybody on here knows @Walt spoke nothing but the truth. Boxing out IS a lost art. When "big men" can't box out, you know the game's in trouble.

nikkas earned it, thats how

Alex English wasnt just shooting treys uncontested

True, so does today's dudes. They are more skilled and better 3 point shooters than them players back then.
Turtle foot English and slow behind Kiki had 47 and 51 respectively. Those dudes were sloths compared to dudes of today, so let's not make excuses why they are great.

I love the 80s - 90s Bulls (Pip :blessed:) but ain't no half of that in the HOF. You can say that over half of the starters of the last 3 championships are HOF, unless you want to count Robert Parrish :mjgrin:
