oscar right. look at this lockdown defense he had to play against. coaches now are smarter and defenses/offenses are more complex than they have ever been
youre really not helping your case with this video.
in every clip, theyre either on him like white on rice or theyre double-teaming. they just couldnt stop him and his innovative moveset.
look at him hit that J on bill russell.
He's incredibly bitter, he always talked slick about
when he got the chance. It's sad to go through life carrying that much misery.
That being said, every player today owes him a debt of gratitude for his work as NBAPA president. Know your history.
oscar doesnt say anything that older bball fans in general dont say all the time about michael jordan and the current nba.
yall need to converse with older folks man. theres more gems being dropped, as opposed to just conversing with your peers, who are in the same boat as you.
and as far as jordan goes, they changed rules in order to enhance his strengths and threw a hype machine behind him. im not saying he isnt an option in goat convos, but the way people carry on like hes the undisputed goat is ignorant.
Yeah because you saw his whole career from an adult perspective and able to put it in proper context
This post feels like you are trolling me
did you see michael jordan's career from an adult perspective?
did you even see it at all in real-time?
only difference is the media TELLS YOU to honor michael jordan. that and his name is on the best sneaker brand.
The current NBA does suck. He cant be the one to say it though because its a no win situation for him. Jim Brown says the same shyt about football but nobody calls him "old & a hater"
yep. people dont disregard & disrespect football legends either, aside from the all-white years.
i think its beccause football isnt as casualy-friendly when it comes to serious debates.
basketball suffers from the same syndrome as hip-hop. everybody wants to pose as an expert out the blue.
nikka, I don't have fukkin watch a players entire fukkin career to know their greatness. Half this fukkin board that comments on NBA weren't even alive during MJ's first 3-peat yet they be on his dikk as the GOAT. He averaged a triple double over his first five seasons in the league. No one's even come close to that. The bolded names won't even come up in GOAT discussions so I don't see your reason for even mentioning them
hell, alot of these dudes didnt even catch the 2nd 3-peat.
alot of cats on here dont really even watch games now. just highlights, and at the most, they watch the bigger games,
I said this in a previous thread,Cavs showed the blueprint on how you can beat them unfortunately theey were missing two key players.
But they played a style i havent seen any team try to use against them this year....Slow the game down,force them on the perimeter and make it a slow methodical half court type game and contest everything....
i dont know about cleveland.
i think low-key, kyrie & love going down helped them in the sense that those two are defensive liabilities.
they just needed another go-to scorer to compensate, and they couldve won last year.
