@ItsUNEXQE@HRacksAllDubs@Thechat101 Lmao in Miami he played the 4, in LA with AD when they won the chip he played the 1 and lead the league in assists, this year he played 3rd option and was cooking off ball. He has found success in playing 1-5 on a basketball court yet your just regurgitating bad points from here
@ItsUNEXQE@HRacksAllDubs@Thechat101 The change their role lolol some don’t know how to adjust their game, an underrated aspect of lebron is he has changed his game and adjusted for every team, look at how simple it was for him to go from 2nd option, to 3rd option, to first option this year, playing off ball
@DogeRomeo@LegenJerryAD@ApexJonesHACKED You got cooked gang, you said alphas don’t quit, he pointed out Kobe quit, you started making excuses your literally doing the same shit you said your mad about Bron fans doing LMFAO
@NoirChvp Exactly thats why it’s important to have ways to switch it up, if all you can do is double all the time then the reads are easy, but if you don’t know if they about to double or if they are stunting, loading up the weakside, digging, then your processing way more vs just a double
@NoirChvp Lmao playing safety forces the offense to question what decision to make, that’s like saying in football guys guarding an area is stupid because their in “no man’s land” they are guarding areas on the court/field to mask coverage and discourage or funnel the offense, that’s chess
@NoirChvp Thanks for bringing up Shaq, they basically started implementing zone and more freedom on defense partially because of shaqs dominance, it allowed teams more versatility to guard Shaq vs the simple one on one or double limitations look it up
@NoirChvp People are scoring more because teams have more scorers on the floor lmao your literally answering the question, back then didn’t need to have multiple shooters/scoring threats in todays league you NEED that, You can’t get away with bad spacing anymore
@HeWasOnTop@kp_overeast@NotThe12GAF They don’t watch ball daw lmao they learn basketball from Stephen a smith and talk show narratives vs watching the game and seeing that if Steph curry or Klay is involved in screen l actions with a ball handler they switch to keep a body infront of them at all times
@NoirChvp Yes and that’s harder to do when you don’t know when a team is doubling, if guys are flooding the box, playing the gaps and stunting, it’s why offense has evolved to have a lot more off ball screen movement and versatility vs just dumping the ball to the post and forcing a double
@NoirChvp Lmao that isn’t intention of doing nothing your literally occupying space that player would have to drive or move to while still having space to get back to your man. You can force MJ to hesitate, pass the ball out for a reset, take away an angle without giving the hard double
@NoirChvp lol they worked harder because they could only do two things that’s like saying offense in the60s was better because they were more limited so they had more discipline
@NoirChvp Exactly MJ doesn’t know what he’s doing if it’s legal, because he’s cutting off space for MJs attack without fully commuting to the double, stunting like that takes away a 1 on 1 angle while still applying pressure while having wiggle room to get back in case he passes out
@NoirChvp lol your giving him the easy read, confusion causes hesitation, that’s the purpose of stunting or flooding the box, sending straight double is easy to read if that’s all your doing lol
@jayjoe96@Jacobtheclipper Lmao facts every player plays until they can’t but but MJ can retire multiple times and the narrative is “he loves the game so much” Kobe, Duncan, Bron, Wade, cp3, Magic, bird Kareem etc all played until they couldn’t anymore, MJ didn’t want to yet he loves the game more lol wtf
@NoirChvp Exactly because they were limited lolol you only had two choices, either allow the 1 on 1 or fully double, vs now you can stunt, load up the weakside, pseudo double off the ball, zone, etc it makes it more difficult to read if your on offense especially if you have no spacing
@NoirChvp Zoning all allows for a variety of ways to confuse and guard different actions or players while not compromising your defenses philosophy, only being able to commit a full double doesn’t allow for defensive versatility to take advantage of bad floor spacing
@NoirChvp Again that doesnt leave for better defense, if I can play the gap and shut off a lane from the offensive player while still having the ability to rotate back I wouldnt need someone else to commit to rotating every time, not every play needs a double, loading up weakside, stunting
@NoirChvp Read if that’s all your able to do, your unable to really take advantage of bad shooting if you can’t zone gaps within another teams offense and personnel on the floor
@NoirChvp He’s not in no man’s land lol he’s trying to force the offensive player to have to think, sometimes you can send a full double, stay at home on a guy or stunt at him to make him think a double is coming or play and angle which cuts off where he wants to go, full double is easy to
