ESPN: The Last Dance ('98 Bulls Doc)

Bill Russell played in a white city on a team full of hall of famers was a great leader and them rednecks still broke into his house and shitted in his bed. Besides they was winning every year why would he need to yell at people?

Kareem was aloof. Magic was the leader of that team since his second year in the league.
Even Magic admitted that wasn't true. They didn't call the muhfucka "Cap" just for kicks.
REACH!

Exactly, you know what it is ? This generation is soft man and dont understand that type of coaching style. It's not for everyone but for some they respond better and it has proven successful where applicable. Kobe was tough on players too, and when he gets a documentary like this, people will see he wasnt perfect. I'm sure there's more off the court we don't know that might put people off but we love Kobe for what he did for the sport of basketball.
Ironically the only one complaining about Jordan in this thread ain't a millenial or Gen-Z.
 
Because they adapted and overcame it. The league didn't change that just for them. Today the league is different, if you even breathe on a player to talk shit to another player it's a foul and/or a fine. Some of these players act like soccer players (i.e. LeBron James) when it comes to fouls.

Yea they did
 
If a product got worse in y’all eyes why watch?


If a TV show became shitty a few seasons in I stop watching it

If a brand of food didn’t taste as good as they used to make I would stop eating.

If Makita Drills became shitty I wouldn’t used them to fix things around my house


Y’all take the route of something being worse than it used to be and wouldn’t fuck with but y’all complain about ball and watch it





MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
 
Shooting 3/20 from 3 ain't no goddamn skill.

And players like Harden have done that...more tha once in a two-week period.
 
Teams score more because it’s more skilled players instead of 1 per team

:ualreadyknow:
Because of pace. Also, zone defense wasn't a thing in the 90s. Once teams realized they couldn't go forward, they went back. To the 3 point line. Teams realized that the 3-ball was more efficient than the midrange. Some teams started valuing transition points more than 2nd-chance points cause defenses aren't set. That equals more pace. That equals more possessions for teams.
