Vexed? No I think it's funny how demonstrably ignorant you guys are. That should have been obvious from my tone. You're reading skills are what they are though.
All you are doing at this point is trying to deflect.
You cannot prove any of that statistically, cubicle boy.
"you're reading skills"

and fattie is reduced to grammar smack and trying to parrot arguments hes already lost to back at me.
my work here is done. last word is yours.
Defenders today have to guard better ball handlers and play makers and have to defend more of the floor with the implementation of the 3 point line![]()
They also can't hand check
easy to have good spacing and awareness when the opposing team's entire offense was ran within 18 feet of the basket![]()
despite that, they still allowed on average 115 ppg![]()
Fuzzy getting his pushed in, err, I mean getting his feces repaired to a more distant segment of the colon.
Can't wait to see what 50 cent words he can one up with to spin this![]()
He's already used "belies" again in another thread.
I think he got passed over for that promotion to mid level office worker today. I guess the stack of engineering books in his cubicle and the shuttle hanging from monofilament from the drop ceiling didn't move anyone. Probably beaten out again by that Indian guy who wears knitted ties.
The Big O might be a 15/7/4 guy if he played now... and could stay on the floor...
Now... thats with the skill set he had in his era... with his athleticism... and modern skill development... he might have been a star.
We'll never know.
Either way, what he said was absolutely stupid, and he rightfully got on for it by other NBA players and coaches.
But yanno, I guess Kerr just doesn't know anything about the NBA.
Big O would average 40-20-20 in today's NBA![]()
played in an era where you could average 50/30 a game
white stiffs
head down while dribbling
hitched shorts
black and white TV
basketball made out of cow hide
Those are some pretty awful shooting splits.
Hook line and sinker![]()
lol Lefty no one is falling for your trolls. You're so cute.
You did tbh
No I trolled you into thinking I did. Just like I trolled you into responding. You didn't troll me though, I chose without any outside influence.
Ever see the Soprano's episode where Tony tells Carmela off at the restaurant? That's where I got that rant upstairs.. lol
So the rules are more in their favor? That they had an easier time now because of the rules doesn't mean that players now don't have it easier, dimwit. You do nothing to address the issue of fundamentals.
It is amusing you lay out several observations when they clearly support what Robertson's overall point was. Bravo! WC would be proud.
PPG is a meaningless stat without the context of # of possessions and FG%. FG% back then was significantly lower for example. Go cherry pick another stat.
I guess they still show 1960's NBA in Algeria
Did you ever think of why teams don't play at that pace anymore? Modern defense doesn't allow it.
Do you have anything other than super athlete theory to support this?
I see a whole lot of teams that do a very poor job defending outlet passes and getting back in general.
If you really want to claim that modern NBA transition defense is now more vigilant or some nonsense then you need to do more than just assert it.
Also you guys are waving your hands at the best case scenarios like the Spurs, Warriors, and Grizzlies who do focus on technical defense and ball denial but ignore the meat of the league. There are some teams with established programs and rosters its a revolving door of coaches and players for the vast majority of the league. You cannot play heroball on defense.
Purely subjective.
I'd argue most average NBA players today would dominate the NBA in the 60's/70's. The game and the athlete has evolved so much the past 50 years to suggest otherwise.
Really think those Fuzzy Bingo cards need to happen. I need suggestions on words to use for the boxes.
