The Official NBA Season Thread: Free Agency Day

dubs just won a ring with their biggest players being 6’8 and 6’9 and no real centers behind Loon. then concept of the traditional “big” is not as useful in this era

rim protection is great but in the playoffs teams need 4/5s that can switch. Loon, OPJ and even Belly played extremely well when switched onto Tatum
Your bigs are good for modern basketball though. Having Blake drop 15ft into the paint on the PnR isn’t winning you basketball games against good shooting teams.

Warriors are the Only exception to the rule. But you still need Size and Bigs who can not only switch and play effective PNR defense, but also protect the paint.

Look at the rosters of every NBA Champion the last 10 years save for the Warriors, let alone the last 30 years, and it's full of size and length.

Lakers, Bucks, Raptors are the last few Champions except the Warriors. Look at their rosters of bigs, size, and length is further evidence.

You still need bigs and size in this league to win a title. Unless of course you have the Splash Brothers. Teams can try and copy but they will never be like the Warriors just like no team could ever be like Showtime no matter how much Don Nelson and Paul Westhead tried to run up the score in the 80s and 90s.

brosizzle’s argument was that the celts lost last nite because al and time lord didn’t play. horford and the celtics were getting cooked by curry on those drops.

al and time lord would’ve had an impact.. just like wiggins would have 🤷‍♂️

Imagine if a 100% healthy Bucks had made the Finals instead of Boston.

It's Mil over GSW in 6 or 7 imo cause the Warrior interior D would have zero answer for Giannis, Lopez, Portis. The matchups would've been completely different than what we saw in the Finals. Looney, Bjelica, Dray wouldn't have been as effective cause against Boston they didn't have to worry bout nobody scoring inside the paint at will like Mil can do

By ****ing who?

The rest of the video is just an unknowing admission of never having studied history.
Thought it was obvious she meant modern, but I guess :lol:.
