all this juelzing but you fail to mention the league is more competitive and cutthroat in terms of athletic demand, tempo, possessions per game than ever.

Dont nobody give a fukk about Wilt matched up with some insurance salesmen, and games with scores of 79-69

allen iverson averaged 41.1 mpg for is career

And you're suppose to pay GOOD players not let them go :mjtf:

This the same nikka that said Why would I pay Kemba Walker and go into the tax if we ain't making the playoffs :mjtf:


Ain't he playing the 82 required:mjgrin:
He right though. Kemba not moving the needle, they need to rebuild through the draft

A guy like MJ wouldn’t get it, because back then, it was expected to play 82 games.

they would stay out the night before, and come to play as if they weren’t out all night

guys are built differently now

:beli: karl anthony towns has played in 328 out of the possible 334 games (2 to suspension) in his career

Has MJ shown the ability to build through the draft though? Hell nah...

He needs to horde as much in house talent as he can and then try to lure high upside guys with big contracts. Letting Kemba go was dumb and set them back

No but he sure as hell isnt adept at signing free agents either. They need to be really bad for the next 2 seasons minimum. They'll eventually hit on someone if they draft high enough and if coach is legit

These new nikkas soft :mjlol:

Not even just in sports, in general. That’s why these high paying trade jobs opening up because dudes would rather be women in offices not doing anything where they have to do work with their hands

First off, Kobe is an NBA guru. Secondly he already spoke on load management



THIS IS IDENTICAL TO MY OPINION.

YOU HAVE TO USE LOAD MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBLY FOR THE SAKE OF THE LEAGUE.

TAKE THE NIGHT OFF AGAINST THE GRIZZLIES
NOT ON A NATIONAL TV GAME
LET ALONE VS THE MVP.

THEYRE SHOOTING THEMSELVES
IN THE FOOT WHEN THOSE NEW
TV NEGOTIATIONS COME AROUND.

DUDES KEPT MISSING TNT & ABC
SATURDAY NIGHT GAMES A FEW SEASONS AGO.

USE SOME fukkING COMMON SENSE.

THESE BIG MATCHUPS COST A LOT OF MONEY.
:devil:
:evil:
