david stern blessed shak with so many charges and travels a night that it wasn't even funny. there wasn't any need for it- shak was physically talented enough. but there was a sharp change in his repertoire when he decided to gain 50lbs, i'm sure with stern's approval up front on the scheme, to become bulldozer charge man. just as obnoxious as when the league blessed lebron who couldn't shoot when young at least 5 charges a night- high knee lifts into defenders who were statues for two seconds before bron came through lol
@@truthhurts837 you're exactly right. now we have harden and westbrook with their amazing relentless pursuit to "become great" by way of fraudulent triple double i would rather watch someone take a shit into a transparent toilet bowl then watch all of harden's travel-charges so he can get 90 FTAs a game. other than rodman's antics that disrupted the flow of games in the 90s playoffs, well, fuck it, i scratch that comparison even. the disruption of harden's allowed travel-charges to the game is absolutely unparalleled in the history of the NBA but you can tell that they're REALLY getting desperate for the next standard bearer. maybe tatum in boston. definitely not brown in boston- he's just there to shit on white folks. honestly if there's one person who plays a pure brand of self improved style ball in the league it's bam adebayo. he's a pleasure to watch. jokic sometimes but not sure if he's increased his D or conditioning. that's all i come up with for people in the NBA who i'd actually like to watch. BTW- i predicted to a buddy of mine- we both grew up in the BIG 3 bird-parish-mchale era in boston, that adebayo would make tatum want his mommy and miami would win easily in 6 and it wouldn't even seem that close in last year's playoffs. i just knew that was going to happen. adebayo may not put up astonishing block numbers but he fills gaps on defense and puts fear (of being posterized with a block) into people, bill russell style. tatum played with his balls in his throat the rest of that series and adebayo wrecked his shoulder to make that block and then was not half th eplayer he was for the lakers series. my buddy didn't talk to me for two weeks after i IM'd him "Mommmmmmyyyy" after the adebayo block on tatum lolllls
@@postaltraining You conspiracy theorists are pathetic. Shaq treated Sabonis like his step child all series long with the exception of game 7 when Kobe step up.

Sabas wasn't himself anymore at this point, but it's always nice to watch his battles with Shaq.

Don’t forget the biggest prima donna of them all. MJ and all his free throws.
