i disagree. Durant, Lebron, and Giannis are all capable of playing that style, but the rules have changed, so they don’t have to buckle down every possession. It’s similar to late 70s to mid 80s, with more emphasis on running the floor, rather than the slower, half-court game. Their size too, would neutralize a lot of the advantages that 6-8 220 # guys like Pippen and Rodman had at the time. Rodman and Pippen are 2 of my favorite players, but they were the top tier in size and speed at the time. They would not be top-tier today in physicality. They would fit right in, not dominate.
Im not going to keep running over the same things sir.
You feel your way, I feel mine.
These kids lack the defensive fundamentals, and rely way too heavily on the long ball.
