It's somewhere in the middle
KG (in response to Ant Man)- "If im being honest, I don't think anyone in this generation could've played 20 years ago"
- Thread starter Jplaya2023
- Start date
That same myopic obsessive competitiveness that get you to the league and gets you to greatness and keeps you there is the same thing that has you sounding stupid when you arent on the court. And this applies to all generations. Ironically the two guys that I havent seen this silly shyt from are the two guys everyone wants to pit against each other all the time. Kobe always showed love and respect to his predecessors and the young cats. Bron has always done the same and continues to do so. That said, you dont get clicks and ratings for thoughtful, balanced analysis (see: Inside being the "gold standard" and winning Emmys yealy 
).

It just ain’t the young nikkas saying stupid shyt, have you seen Gilbert’s podcast? Have you seen some of the shyt Rasheed Wallace has said that makes zero sense? It's both young players and older players that say shyt to downplay the success of each other and to be honest I didn't start seeing the young players do this until recently. Why people take extra offense when the young nikka say it, but is perfectly fine for a 50-year-old retiree to shyt all over this era?

Ehhh. Bron said his son would do work outta High School.
Kobe has a "Fundamentals" quote here and there.
The older nikkas always come off bitter and the younger nikkas always come off self-centered and ahistorical.
KG’s disdain for analytics is funny. Cause those types love him
Riley was using analytics in the 90s with the Knicks.
So weird that's its become a boogeyman.

Touche. You dont/didnt see the vitriol or dismissiveness or flat out stupidity from them though. Legit critiques based in reality is one thing. I havent seen outlandish shyt from them.
And come on we all know that Bronny shyt was a dad hyping his son.

NBA discourse is horrendous 
Ant Man came w/ a Coli poster take and KG responds like an uncle in the "articulate but weirdly intense" stage of drink

Lebron said the league was watered down in 2010. That’s KG’s era.

KG WAS DRAFTED IN 1995
2010 IS BRONS ERA.
HE LITERALLY WON HIS 2ND MVP DOOFUS.

contested shots still get taken stepping into the post pulling up into the midrange
CAP THAT SPACE IS ALWAYS THERE
AND THE GUYS WHO CAN WORK
IN THAT SPACE DURING THE POST SEASON
SEPARATE THEMSELVES FROM OTHERS
doesn't mean they are open like they are facing 1v1 match-ups
now a lot of players find more space stepping back
defense changed & the preferred prioritized shot changed with it
*
THEY ARE OPEN.
TEAMS CROWD THE PAINT AND PRESS UP
ON THE 3P LEAVING THE MIDDY OPEN
BECAUSE THATS THE SHOT
TEAMS WANT YOU TO TAKE.
