Update on Former Players - December

[Madmannsucks]

Great for Kemba. But this is a great example of the lack of defense in today’s NBA. Blow-by and no rotational support.

When fans of the NBA claim that today’s players are better than the players from the ‘60s ‘70s and ‘80s…they’re full of bs.

They are better athletes, with better training. They are not better PLAYERS.

I know...

The women's team are better PLAYERS than the 60s/70s/80s era NBA players

Right. Other than being better ball handlers and shooters playing against more complex defensive schemes, the players aren’t better.

Oh my goodness. There are actually people who believe this. How do you think the women's team would do vs a starting line up of Willis Reed, Bill Bradley, Dave DeBusschere, Earl Monroe and Walt Frazier?

Today's NBA players are the best EVER

Yeah right. The game involves no defense today.

 

[Madmannsucks]

The fact that some think there are better players today than this is laughable. Blocks shot. Brings it up, passes, sets a pick and dunks. Actually runs down the court.

Russell was an in incredibly smart and efficient player. Championships were the norm for him, at all levels.

If you believe in economics, today’s players are the best.

I say that understanding that not everyone on this board does.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Two of the three best CUSA teams, both ranked within the top-55 in KenPom ratings and a chance to see Gaffney play.

Can’t tell if this is a troll attempt or not. Also have 0 understanding why it is its own thread when we legit have a whole thread about transfers and former huskies playing elsewhere

Nah the person who posted the thread is clearly elderly, they’re pretty tone deaf but definitely a fan.

You're showing your ass here. Have you seen a second of an NBA game in the last, say, five years?

 

[AtlantaHusky]

Wow Butler laying an egg. Went over the board because I'm a sucker for oppo melts.

 

[superjohn]

People who haven't watched a second of today's NBA commenting on how bad the NBA is today.

Lebron, Jokic, Doncic, Giannis would dominate back in the day and Jordan, Magic, Bird, Olajuwon would dominate today.

The NBA is awesome right now, maybe watch the games so you don't sound like a dumbarse.

Yeah, I live in Denver. Watch a few games a week. Let me guess you're what 14?
