@Kameron_Hay It’s not that there aren’t similarities. I think the similarities are overstated. Kob/mj were a lot more physical and athletic. It was core to their style. They were also off the ball way more than SGA and didn’t rely on handle as much. SGA to me is closer to AI stylistically
@ohnohedidnt24 Also, they say teams don’t practice/condition in the reg szn anymore. You can’t just train in the offseason n expect to go a full season at tht pace if you don’t keep conditioning. Theyre alternating btwn 100 (games) and 0 (btwn games) all season. You’re gonna get hurt like that
@Jacobtheclipper@haiti4eva 1st sentence sounds like hate. Jokic would be amazing in any era cuz he has the tools for it. I agree with the 2nd and 3rd sentences. Them being true doesn’t warrant the implication that he only dominates because there’s no true bigs. A real debate atp but Dream > joker. For now
I remember one of my friends in high school stole the teachers book to copy all the answers but he got caught cuz he even copied the part that said “answers may vary”
@bballbreakdown I think the core of the debate is what it means to discontinue a dribble. Given the way refs have historically interpreted it, Giannis traveled. There’s room to debate what terminating the dribble is/should be. But there’s a reason why no one would teach their players to do this
@1manmafia_@ClubShayShay@paulpierce34 Boston took Miami 7 in ‘12 with a core past its prime. U don’t think it’s reasonable for him to think if he was 26/27 he woulda been able to keep up with Bron better in one/some of those games and win that series? All good if u don’t, but P was an elite player already by that age
@1manmafia_@ClubShayShay@paulpierce34 P not having a series like Bron v Detroit is besides the point. Has nothing to do with whether or not he could offset Bron on a given night in his prime. And he literally has offset Bron before. Obv doesn’t make him the same level talent but still
@1manmafia_@ClubShayShay@paulpierce34 Yes but this is besides his point. P said if he was the same age, he woulda been able to offset Bron, which is true. On a given night. Since that’s actually happened before, hes not really trippin here. I’m not sayin they woulda beat MIA but it’s not that much of a stretch
