It actually reminds me of what Dwyane Wade said to his kid after Dwyane beat him in basketball:



Zaire: Congratulations you beat me because you post up.
Dwyane: Yup.
Zaire: You're 240.
Dwyane: Yup and you're 170.
Zaire: Play me with all jumpers and see what happens.
Dwyane: I don't play that game of basketball.

That's basically how the league and professional competition works.

You don't play to your opponents' strengths.
You play to your own strengths and opponents' weaknesses.
You know, do what works within the rules.
It's crazy how people don't understand that and let sour grapes cap their ceiling.

Hed be much harder for a young fella to cook just based off the physical attributes. I imagine he plays on both sides like a football player.

Since when. Is this some type of new analytic goofy chit.

Who’s a better player between Shaq and Allen Iverson?

Who wins one on one? See how dumb this is. You could make a justification for either one beating each other.

Same with Bron and KD. shyt any NBA players.

The nba is barely basketball. It just looks like it. It’s strength and speed training, and strategy based skill building.

The only nikkas who actually get to play basketball is like 3 or 4 guys per team. Everybody else, run, jump, and play d. And when u finally get your 5 shots at random moments in the game, two or three better go in or that’s your career.

Lil nikkas be cosplaying they favorite star playin against a nikka who gotta keep up with them fr :mjlol:

The Scalabrine effect is actually insane :skip:
