    Awe did eggbert the cubicle version of Walt Frazier become vexed?
    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.

    Current NBA defenders for the most part have poorer footwork, hand placement, spacing, and awareness.
    .
    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Oscar is obviously great in any era, but I hate how salty some of these old farts are about the game today. Jordan does it too.. 90's this and that, the league is soft. Bunch of whiny old men..
    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.
