(Video) Gary Payton Explains His Hatred for Today's Soft ass NBA

[nineteeneightysix]

I agree...

That's why I struggle to watch basketball...I was a rugby player, a no contact sport like basketball is hard to watch...Even soccer is more physical than basketball...In terms of being able to make physical contact during defence...

I feel like there is NO possible way of defending a good basketball player...If LeBron chose to drive every play, how could he be stopped...?

lol @ james stiff arming dude then crying when dude barely wrapped his arms around him.

The stiff arm guy flopped but James should have taken that foul.

He must have had his mind set on that dunk.

@number 30.

Gary Payton, the greatest defensive PG the league has ever seen, would be a net negative defender in today's league.

 

[Easy-E]

i haven't watched the video but no way did he say this..

I know

I used it as an example of why I agree with him

No showboating after dunks huh?

Who the fukk is scoring 50/60 points? We're not on that isolation shyt now a days.

 

[The War Report]

fukking NBA is reviewing flagrant fouls now. They're delaying and killing the momentum of the game.

 

[mbewane]

he's right.

lebron crying after the game about this love tap:

shows the soft culture the league has developed.

This the type of shyt that makes me just not able to fully respect Lebron. Can't believe that's the MVP right there.

There is only 3 good point guards in the league Paul, Rondo and Parker -Gary Payton

 

[NYC Rebel]

You'd swear they call more fouls now than they did back in Gary's day. Who put up that post of fouls called by decade?

 

[The War Report]

I would rather teams play like The Spurs than some of these grind out of teams from The 90's. I hate ugly basketball.

The Glove is so disrespectful.

I'm sorry but most of what GP is saying here is bullshyt...

First he talks about being from Birds era when they played in the league together for a grand total of 24 months.. Much of which Bird was injured and being out West in Seattle gave them 2 match ups a year ..

Then he said that the refs let them play and be more physical, while pointing out that he fouled out a lot as an example..



He says there is only 3 good point guards in the league..While being from Oakland where Steph Curry is beasting and also shytting on Lillard who points to him as a mentor..

Then he said 1 year college players aren't good except Kobe and Bron...Like Durant, Melo, Bosh, Love, Rose and them ain't shyt...

I'm all for some good 90s dikk ridin like the next man my age, but he sounds crazy....

I agree on the touch fouls
