why do people glorify the old flagrant fouls as something positive to look back on?
all it means is they would be ejected our fouled out within 15 minutes because they lack the skill and ability to play defense without grabbing and pushing. instead, imagine if today's great defenders had the chance to play in the 90's when you could get away with murder... people think draymond green gets away with a lot now? just imagine him in the 90's
No in way
Hard fouls had a psychological aspect on the game. Think about the '04 WCF when Parker was having his way against the Lakers and making them look like fools. Game 3 LA said that and laid the wood on Parker all game. He shrunk and was never the same player after that. That's what hard fouls can do to a finesse player.why do people glorify the old flagrant fouls as something positive to look back on?

tbh even though I think the 03-04 Pistons would get murdered, I think the 05 Spurs would be a toss up with this Golden State team. You get a guy who can control them inside all game and it's a totally different ball game. Too bad there's no team that is capable of that nowadays nor would the Pistons be able to do so eitherNo in way
I'd enjoy watching prime Duncan all over Gaymond.
California in general is the hole of the world. Hope it breaks off due to the San Andreas fault and gets annexed by North Korea.
Duncan would be Zaza'd
Duncan would school that mother er just with his eyes. He would stare at him and Zaza would on his pants. He would bankshot him into oblivion. There's a reason there was never a player who would mess with Duncan in his entire career - the only one who actually tried to do that was Sheed and he got spanked.
man, the GOAT's face was like I gotta get back in there...
the problem with the pistons, can they keep up with the gsw offense?
Don't ever remember Sheed disrespecting Duncan. Sheed had mad respect for Duncan going back to when they played against each other in college.
no one said anything about disrespecting Duncan - read above
There's a reason there was never a player who would mess with Duncan in his entire career - the only one who actually tried to do that was Sheed and he got spanked. Then what did you mean when you said that Sheed tried to mess with Duncan? That to me implies disrespect.
I don't know if I agree with Rasheed on the Pistons beating them, but it's great that he bought up the defense thing.
I've been saying the past two years that they're not a great defensive team because I believe their defensive numbers are based on the other team missing shots by trying to keep up with them. Their offense (especially when they're hitting threes) puts a lot of pressure on the other team, and the other team comes down quite often and takes ill-advised 3 pointers, or other tough shots just trying to keep up with them scoring wise. It's makes the Warriors' defensive numbers look better than their defense actually is IMO. Basically, their offense is their best defense.

No, I'm not sure how you can infer disrespect from my comment. It could mean 1000 things. I responded to a comment that said "Duncan would be Zaza'd"; has Zaza disrespected anyone or has he played like a mother er instead? I don't think Zaza has disrespected anyone in this or the previous series. He's done other things. He would never be able to do those things to Dunca.
Timmy was huge that series, and against those Juggernaut defenders in the Wallace's. I got no idea how we got pass that Piston side. 05 TD would wreck the Warriors.
He's right. The dubs are one of the softest teams in league history. They'd fold like lawn chairs against the pistons.
