He already addressed in the A.I. compilation where A.I. is shaking tf out of nikkas without a hand in sight

Handchecking is completely gassed and you cannot handcheck a player with speed with a deep bag of dribble moves right to left and who can step back and fire on a dime.

Kyrie Irving would be unstoppable in a pre-zone era where he would have to be defended on an island or hard doubles and he’s definitely not a guy you want to full court press

he crossed up old man kobe. how many times would young man kobe shut that ish down? well we saw what old man kobe did to him in a real life game. sure kyrie got his points. but he had to take a lot of tough shots to do it. its not like he was crossing kobe up and getting to the basket with ease. it was hard and kobe didnt ask for help nor was their help behind kobe.

:what: he made that comment about 90's players yesterday

now he turns around and praises one...that's emotional instability and loopy behavior

And in your absolutism, youre too daft that he used Grant Hill’s play in the 90s as an outlier that represents the modern game.

I swear...you are daft as fukk

draymon green has the athletic ability of an elephant but he's smart and is always in the right position defensively and he's a smart defender as well.
Dray is a strong fast fat nikka with a 7’1 wingspan and strong low center of gravity with high defensive IQ/fundamentals. Watch Kobe’s Detail on him where he breaks down his fundamentals as a close out defender.

An elephant? :gucci:

doesn't make it any less loopy and bizarre, grown men spewing their opinions and feelings like this every 10 minutes like he does is not normal

clearly you're a stan and follow him on social media though, do your thing :hubie:

kyrie woudl not be unstoppable in a non zone era. you put real life top notch man defenders on him allowed to armbar him and lean on him all night without being called for it most of the night. that will wear on a small guy like kyrie. as i addressed above. Old man kobe checked him to prove a point. what do you think a prime kobe would've done to him defensively? all that shaking and baking is for low IQ defenders. thats who works on most. high iQ defenders will get shook from time to time but it wont be a mixtape like it looks when kyrie types go up against the lower iq defensive guys.

and when we're having this discussion we're not saying guys as elite as kyrie wont ball. they will. But we're saying it would not be as easy. It's not like kryie is the greek, where he cant shoot and has to rush the rack. now a guy like that would play even better without a zone defense slowing him down from getting into the paint. and yes you are correct AI was shaking dudes with the wicked cross that was completely illegal I may add. as much as i loved AI that cross would not be nearly as effective without him completely carrying the ball/cuffing it. and AI crossed up jordan and i remember tony parker crossing up gary payton. why? mike and gp were older by then. the lateral quicks were not what they use to be and you ran into young dudes with handles/quicks. but if you give me a PRIME jordan, and a prime Payton vs these types. things would be a lot different. the shake and bake is more show than it is actually effective. it only works if you're too stupid to just stand still and watch the show. then put pressure on the ball handler. now for a guy like curry. its hard to even do that because if he catches you just chillin. he will light you up from 3 too.

again, the nikka just went off about 90's era players and then turns around and praises one..that's emotionally unstable and attention whoring behavior, if you disagree then fine, that's a part of life...

but ease up on the stanning breh, are you posting from outside his home? :heh:

Only an idiot thinks “one” represents the body of work that’s an entire era. :mjlol:

I hate the Knicks and hated their brand of ball.

Second, your lil New York whining continues to show proof why the term “second city” has existed for over 100 years because you Chicago heads still get in your feelings over New York. :mjlol:

Chicago is called second city because the city was burned down in the Chicago fire and had to be rebuilt. This is the second Chicago, it has nothing to do with New York.
