Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, AD the only 4 great bigs of this era..... All benefit greatly from abusin small ball. They dont look as good in other eras

[DraymondT]

Giannis get his shyt pushed in by Bam and Miami size damn near every playoff but he can abuse small teams like Atlanta, Brooklyn, Boston

Embiid we already know what happen to him in playoff against bigger teams. nikka will drop 60 on Wizards and get Hakeem comps in January but it different after.

Jokic shootin like 60% on floaters or somethin stupid. nikka barely miss 10ft in and it cause teams have no size anymore and wit spacin too and no rim protection today

AD I actually think is one w/ skillset to translate best in other eras of the 4 but his problem is injury prone. He was shyttin on Jokic most series before that stinger. And he is probably the best most consistent twoway playoff performer of the 4.

90% of NBA teams now have FLOWER forwards not power forwards. They got a SF playin the 4 like Mike DAntoni did wit Shawn Marion in Phoenix that shyt changed the game.

Philly 4 is Tobias
Denver 4 is Aaron Gordon
Phoenix 4 is KD
Boston 4 is Tatum
OKC 4 is JDubb
Lakers 4 is Bron or Rui
Clips 4 is Kawhi

etc etc... Wolves one of only teams wit size. Naz and Jaden was out against Denver last year too. Jokic look unstoppable again teams w/o size let a team like this on him and he look like Vlade Divac out there. Wolves series last year was most trouble he had and half they team was injured

The plat game is cut throat

Jokic offense isn’t his issue… it’s his defense.

He looks like the worst defensive player on the floor routinely. AD cooked that dude on the defensive end every game, he just ran out of gas because AD is the entire Lakers defense

Pippen would probably be put at the 5 in spots in today's era. shyt's disgusting.

When they say a certain player can guard all 5 positions, that is all the evidence you need. In position-less basketball, many times the biggest player on the court is an undersized 4.

I remember lebron used to get his lunch took by west when he was "guarding" him in those playoff runs all those years ago.

Big men from older eras would foul out in the first quarter. And would get zero passes in this era cause they can’t shoot

shyt goes both ways. These guys are stronger, faster, smarter and more skilled on average. As in any era you adapt to your fukking surrounding conditions

Zion getting killed every day for playing like a 90s dude and these guys getting killed for playing like 20s dudes — the coli

 

[Harry B]

These dinosaur brehs think that basketball is the only sport in the world where development is reversed. That’s why “done with the 90s” is only a concept in basketball. MJ with his Gretzky vibe is the only one still getting respect, this is all the dinosaurs doing.

And soon enough, if these relics continue, people will say MJ played vs coke heads, plumbers and construction workers who had access to a gym

 

[VegasCAC]

Nostalgia makes people think weird shyt.

Big men are adapted to their era. There's a reason this era exists, and big men are the way they are: the three point shot.

Trust me, if it was still the best way to win, we still would be seeing 30 teams dumping the ball in the low post and taking contested midrange jumpers all game.

The game evolved, and the players with it.

 

[AAKing23]

These dudes are all seeing a double or triple team before they even touch the ball, the same shyt that wouldn't be allowed in other eras because of illegal defense, this is not a reasonable point.
