Positionless ball killed the nba.. the death of the power forward needs to be studied. Seriously think of your favorite team and they always had a pf that played his role.
Once they started putting Bron, KD, shooters at pf that started the decline

Hustle players don’t exist anymore.

Rim protectors barely exist.

Traditional PGs don’t exist anymore

Defensive specialists don’t exist anymore

NBA is down cause the product is trash. All they do is jack up 3 pointers. It makes no sense either cause these dudes aint steph curry. I was watching the end of the heat game over the weekend. They were down 1 point with like 10 seconds on the clock. These fools inbounded and immediately took a contested 3 point shot from damn near the logo. They missed and wasn't even close to going in. All they needed to do was drive to basket and take a higher percentage 2 point shot or draw a foul for the win. It's just bad basketball.

Would be different if their teams were good and the media kept comparing them.

Every point in this thread is disprovable by the underlying numbers.

You blowed asf.

Its plenty of creative scorers and more dudes deadly at pulling up off the dribble (some dudes over dribble, but it's plenty of nikkas that's gone in 1-2 dribbles) than it ever was.

The lack of creativity is a lie. It's just as many as it was during any era, they are just not as good as Wade or MJ or AI. Doesn't mean those skills are completely missing, just the dudes today ain't as good as they were.

Thank you

People don't have problems watching the Warriors whi shoot 3s a lot

Jokic doesn't spam 3s but people don't flock to him as much

Ja Morant and Anthony Edwards would be massive draws if this was remotely true. Ratings were in the gutter during that "Real nikka" era until Stern took matters into his own hands and cleaned up the league's image.

Public interest has been waning ever since KD joined the Warriors but a combination of the pandemic, devastating injuries and team hopping is why it's currently at an all time low.

The NBA has always been a star and narrative driven league. It's going to need another transcendent Superstar and Dynasty to get people tuning in again. The League has been extremely fortunate to have Bird, Magic, Jordan, Kobe, Bron and Steph as ambassadors for the game in quick succession. We don't have a guy in that mold right now.

I thought Flagg could be that guy given all the hype but he doesn't seem to have the game and skillset to take over that mantle.

U don’t agree that those players are rim protectors even tho their blocks and DFG% says it?

U don’t agree with the post that said the blocks per game today compared to the past?

He ignored it because it kills his argument

People here are legit making up lies

The issue isn't any of the crap they're saying

It's always been stars and dynasties.

Transcendent stars leading dynasties has always driven the sport
