MPG is NOT a good indicator of player movement![]()
I hope this is you joking.
Yea, the articles that have come out with them the last week seem like they have a great plan in place for him. Especially the emphasis on his feet. We’ve seen foot injuries destroy the careers of these big guys like himHis team doesn't want him to be. Which is probably the right move.

I mean, we don’t have any other metric to compare the 80s or 90s, with today other than that. They can actually track player movements nowadays with technology.
Dudes saying the 80s and 90s was all ISO ball…. But what are cats like Harden and Melo doing? Joe ISO Johnson??? kyrie, KD, dudes still play isolation basketball while their teammates look on.
Dudes don’t even cut hard to the basket anymore. Boys sit in one spot and refuse to move![]()
You still got dudes who stand around nowadays….. dudes be hovering around the 3 point line like they in the club and don’t want their shoes to get stepped on.

Which was the whole point of Gil's rant. Those guys weren't playing defense back then and couldn't play defense today. Laimbeer would get fried alive.Which makes my next point that you can’t play today if you can’t defend in space. Not the case 30 and 40 years ago

Off the wrong foot tooWho's the little man hitting lefty floaters in traffic with ease??
Pretty sure Bill Laimbeer used to smoke camels during half timeActing as if Every Basketball player on the court nowadays is coming off multiple screens, or the average defender is covering & making up ground on several actions is dishonest as all hell.
This could all be so simple if people realize that these different eras are completely different games of basketball, with completely different skillsets & body types needed to succeed. And for whatever reason people conveniently leave out the EXTREME advances in science, preventive training, and just overall luxuries that these players have in order to keep their bodies in top tier condition & they still missing a quarter of the season. We could also talk about Teams barely practicing nowadays, compared to past eras where coaches were running full hours of practice consistently.
We not gonna sit here & act like the players of today are somehow going through some sort of rigorous toll on the body, that players of the past couldn't handle. We literally just saw a team rest players after being off a week & a half because their PRIVATE JET landed too late & it was too much of a risk to play......![]()
One day we gonna have a discussion about Giannis going from B.I to David Robinson![]()
