76ers: NBA Legacies Transition All Wrong (Old players winning, young ones not)

[Gino-Step]

I just don't know how the NBA can market the belief that as the alpha, Carmelo, Paul, Dwight, KD, Blake, Harden, Curry can win championships. Other than Lebron, is there another under 30 guy that you can market as this dude is sick. He can lead you to a le? Nope.

In the old days, you had KG Duncan Dirk Shaq Kobe as legitimate people that you felt like had a chance or had proven to have won a le.

Nba is much more advanced metrics. Unless the NBA starts marketing teams and strategy and play calling, they are fked. Cause star / hero ball is going to come up shorter and shorter as teams get more efficient.

Sorry LAL bandwagon, you lost what little credibility you had when you listed Kobe at #2. Again, you can say what you want about Tim, Youtube has lots of commercials that he has done early on, and stuff like that had fans all over the world voting him as a perennial starter. But that international thing is real, that's why Tony said it. I didn't say it, Tony Parker said it.

How would LAL bandwagon know thing one about Pop? And hurt basketball for most of the decade how exactly, by winning consistently and often?

If the Spurs were the New York Knicks and they did everything in exactly the same way, they'd get way more pub just because they are in Media central. The Nationalism wouldn't happen as much because the media can choose to report it the way they like, magnify the winning while lessening the fact that Tony & Manu and much of the Spurs, at times are INTERNATIONAL.

True story, if you look at the official list of International Players in the NBA, You'll find Tim Duncan on the list. Also, if the USVI had a senior Men's team at the time Tim was playing, he would have went USVI, except if Pop was coaching Team USA

Check it, even the NBA has Tim listed as an International.


You're LAME and I don't mind telling you so.

Your opinion is now invalidated.

As for Tim and his "boring" personality, this is based on a fallacy. Tim has one of the most unique personalities in the NBA. He's different. If he were an ordinary, run-of-the-mill, showboating got like most NBA players, then he'd be boring. But he's different, therefore he's not boring.
