Not knowing the rules and not using them to your advantage is not the W you think it is.

Criticize the rules that the owners decide, not the players.

Better is preference but it’s undeniable that guys in the 80s, 90s and 2000s were more competitive on the court and that’s why fans were more invested.

If you go around stanning players cause you have daddy issues then you do not count.

Imagine being this disconnected from reality.

Nothing I said was a lie. Anybody who played basketball consistently growing up, had a friend, was that friend, or knew people who had good handles and could shoot unguarded, but put defense on them and they either: get stripped, stop their dribble and have to pass, or force up a bad shot.

That's the NBA today.

The only way to prove that today's players are better, most teams should have real depth, and more importantly, FANS AND MEDIA need to stop saying that certain teams dont have good supporting casts around their Star/Best Players.

It should be impossible to fill out depth with all these so-called talented players that are in the NBA today.

How were they more competitive?

Basketball is better. But basketball isn’t just on the court. It’s in the offices too. Data and analytics are better too. I’d argue that it’s improved more than the on the court game. And that’s where the problem is. Everyone knows how to min/max the game. 3s, layups and free throws. So everything just bleeds into the same shyt.
