Isn't that the same Isaiah that averaged 15 as a high point the next few yearsthe same modern league 5'8 isiah thomas averaged almost 30 ppg for an entire season ?
Ok
? Son literally had a one year anomaly
.
To this day, it baffles me how Muggsy Bogues at 5'3 was able to have a 15 year NBA career

He’s an inspiration to all the under 6’3 midgets
Him not being able to reproduce it is even worse for the league todayIsn't that the same Isaiah that averaged 15 as a high point the next few years

That's how you sound, just being a hating bytch for the sake of it.. you would have been beaten up in the 90s
Played with Earl for a couple years at Eastern...
I'm from Detroit and Earl was easily one of the best players I have ever seen...
Still remember watching tape and Earl made shots and coach like he's a fukkin freak and I don't mean like Rick James
..We had to end film dudes were crying laughing
so what were the D1 scholarship athletes that didn't make it to the league ball players with down syndrome?
Theres a system you dont just walk up to the arena and knock on the front door and they say let me see what you got...

Mugsy was just able to take advantages of his low center of gravity and skills.
The thing about height and why I don't think we'll ever see a league full of 7'+ running point, forwards and traditional bigs:
Who are going to check the Curry's, Kyrie's, Trae Young's, etc.? Those players have routinely made the best defensive wings look like a mismatch on the perimeter.
Taller players may have skills, height/length, etc. but at the end of the day the same rules of physics that give them vertical advantages give them disadvantages when it comes to quickness and low center of gravity. These players simply have a more difficult time turning with the quicker guards, no amount of athletic training will overcome that consistently.
Additionally, some players simply are not bothered by length but more so by quickness, speed and players who can get right under them and into their pockets. If you put a taller/lengthy defender on them they just make them dance. But a shorter, strong player with fluid hips and quick hands can be absolutely disruptive to them.
Point is, if you build your team too short you're going to have advantages against team with great big players, but when you build your team too tall you're going to have disadvantages against teams with great small players.
Teams without a weakness will have a combination of both. It's balance. Then the best teams will not be exposed at either extreme, but will also have that game breaking shooting guard.

I always complain about being tall and short ass nikkas talking shyt when you be hooping taking about, if I was your height I would be in the NBA. I be like nikka please I’m 6’5 not 7’2
But nikkas like Muggsy Bouges and Spud Webb could really tell me some shyt like that and I would have to shut the fukk up
Nah fukk that, my counter is "well if I had your speed/athleticism/etc I'd be in the NBA too" Short nikkas always want to take one element (height) but don't want to lose anything they already have. Plenty of tall nikkas who are stiffs and not in the NBA.

Pretty much….. you could be a starter back then on some teams and stat line be like
6.7ppg 5.2rb 3.7ast .9stl 33mpg
Gelo Ball stats WAAAAAAAAAY better than that but coli say he don’t even deserve to be on the bench in the NBA

You referenced Isiah Thomas. Dude was shooting almost 40% from the 3 point line to drop 30 a game. How's that indicative at all of how Mugsby Bogues, a dude who could barely shoot the 3 would do in this era.

He had freakish ability. Spud Webb too, he played 12 NBA seasons.
