I can’t stand small ball, 5 out offense :hhh:


Bring back traditional front courts. 6’9 PF 6’11 C.

This p*ssy ass finesse and “skill” game is played. You got these big men like Porzingis and Embiid who can’t stay healthy because they’re asked to do too much. Everybody doesn’t have to be like LeBron or Giannis. Stick to what worked for decades.

Before, being tall was the bigger draw for men being groomed in the sport. If you were tall you played. Now with players being more skilled, and having more of them, more “playing just because you tall” players are getting left behind.

WE STILL GOT BOBANS, BOL BOLS
AND TACKO FALLS TAKING ROSTER SPOTS THO.

Bol Bol and Boban actually have skills tho...

Bigger stronger faster :wow:
6' 7" nikkas playing the 5
Shaq/Olajuwon would terrorize this league

Shaw was getting guarded effectively by 6'7 Dennis Rodman one on one.

Hakeem was only 6'9 himself

Larry Johnson was a 6'7"PF that was wrecking shyt til injuries

Not to mention 6'5" Barkley
