Why are the 30-33 guys in the NBA washed already?

[ajnapoleon]

Josh smith
Jokim
Oj mayo
Paul and melo are close
Darko gave up
Wade I can somewhat understand
Deron Williams



Could it be the extra stuff they doing?

Olympics, summer games, working out too hard in the off season?

No troll but damn these guys buring out quick

 

[CHICAGO]

PRETTY SURE THE STARS OF THE 90S DID ALL THAT STUFF TOO
AND DIDNT FALL OFF THAT SOON.

[CouldBeWorse]

Wade is 35 and a 3 time champ, he's earned his washed status.

That knee injury ruined Melo a couple years ago.

J Smoove was never that good.

Thibs and Chicago's medical staff killed Noah.

CP3 isn't washed unless you're talking about Pierce, who's 40.

OJ Mayo has always been a scrub.

Deron........idk.

 

[MJ Truth]

You named 8 guys breh. Some people burn out quicker than others, a couple cats on your list had real injuries, a couple of guys were headcases or never that good.

Lowry and a couple others aren't?

 

[MikelArteta]

Mileage and the way they don't adapt.

Vince Carter used to only be athletic, but he developed a jump shot and could shoot the 3 why he's still around at 40.

Josh Smith been in the league since he was 18, all he could do was dunk and block and be athletic now he's 32 and the one thing that made him elite as a NBA player vanished

Guys in the 90s didn't play as much, particularly while younger, as later players. Take AAU into account.

Lowry and a couple others aren't?

Lowry is a rare exception to the rule.Most guys fall off as they age in his case hes gotten better because hes finally tried to get in shape 10 years into his career...

ONLY NON ATHLETES SAY SILLY shyt LIKE THIS.

YOU THINK DUDES WERENT HOOPING EVERYDAY THROUGHOUT THEIR YOUTH
BECAUSE THERE WAS NO AAU?

THE WEAR AND TEAR OF STREET BALL DONT COUNT RIGHT?

Have you been to a live NBA game? It's fast paced usually (besides Memphis and Spurs) and they been doing it a decade. I would say wear n tear breh..

 

[Rocket Scientist]

Like some women they peak in their 20's and once they hit 30+ it's a wrap

 

[Shadow King]

Smith and Mayo still in the league?

Paul is not washed and Melo is definitely past his prime but still scores 23 a game so I don't know if washed is right for him either.

D-Will had a couple injuries himself and it could argued that he just excelled in Sloan's system. So that pretty much explains away the entire list

My nikka Iggy hit up Richard Jefferson for his HGH plug.

nikka been looking like Finals MVP form.

Probably has to do with diet and not stretching properly. That's about the age my body started to regress and I had to make big changes to diet and the way I took care of my body. Now I'm in the best shape of my life.
