McHale's slippery eel fakes vs Hakeem's dream shakes

[ghostwriterx]

I cant disagree with this at all. I think any player can be a great post player if they worked on it.

Mark Jackson was one of the best "small" post players I have ever seen. So good that they had to create a new rule for it.


yeah, I agree with this. In fact I think McHale was better as a low post scorer. Hakeem was amazing but McHale had so many post moves and counter moves that it was impossible to stop.

That ninja was trash, so overrated for backing down Charlie Ward and Chris Childs, taking up 20 of the 24 clock to throw up some bs.

One thing about McHale, he knew how to flash to the post and be ready for the entry pass. He wasn't the strongest guy, so he couldn't just bogart position in the lane, but he knew how to pick his spots to dart into position. Durant could definitely do that.

@dantheman9758 is the muthafukkin man! I'd like to meet cat and chop it up on some bball stuff.

damn i thought I was watching the same clip over and over again
McHale was killin cats with the same couple of moves each and every time. Dude seems like he would be a fukking headache to play against

wait... is dantheman mitter from ?

al and bynum? no

but duncan?

You can't seriously be trying to argue Kobe as having a better low post arsenal than Al Jefferson.

Let's keep it real here...

If Durant had Kevin McHale's post up ability shyt wouldn't even be fair. That's like when people talked about why won't Shaq work in practice and then shoot 90% from the line. It's just nitpicking at that point.

Durant is ALREADY unstoppable. Nobody here would take McHale on their team before they took Durant. Let that man cook like he's been cookin'.

I gotta watch it again.

From what I remember....McHale was simply giving it to everybody. There was a point in the series where Parrish was forcing Akeem into awkward shots, pinning up under the basket, especially in cheating ass Boston.

I have to watch it again.

Of course, Robert Parish was no sloutch and this 1986 Boston Celtics team is the top 10 Greatest Teams ever..Dennis Johnson (RIP) was very underrated

What made it strange was that Akeem didn't know how to get off his shot.

That was non existent in the 90's.

dont think he is

mostly because he thinks Wilt is better than Kareem, whereas mitter thought Kareem was the GOAT.

Jefferson has vicious post moves..

Al Jefferson came into the league with most of that ability too. I saw it first hand and was shocked at how good around the rim he was.

no one has criticized Durant in here for not having a McHale-like post game. They said how amazing Durant would be if he had it, but its not nitpicking.

Who said this though?

Bynum's post game still needs work to me. He takes too many false steps and turns into traffic instead of away from it.. His size lets him get away with alot..
