In my opinion Wilt had the most potential of any player in NBA history and its not even close in my mind, Shaq ruined that chance as soon as he became 320
Shaq never really had a proper jumpshot as he never worked on it, unlike Wilt who even tried to shoot free throws granny style and improved thanks to it, before going back to the classic motion.
If I'm nor mistaken in the 1992 dream team hall of fame ceremony, Larry Bird gave a speech about how the older generation needed to appreciate amazing things they never thought possible. Like Klay scoring 60 points withouth even dribbling. That was a really good moment and it meant a lot coming from one of the goats of the old generations.
You are 100% right, it does give a negative image to the league in general. My long time friend got into basketball only last year, and he is convinced that 90s basketball is so much better than today, as if he followed basketball back then. It gives casuals and new fans that didn't develop any critical thinking about the NBA yet the idea that the NBA is watered down
A.I and Kobe are the only 2 legends I can think of off the top of my head who actually appreciate this generation of basketball. It’s honestly pretty ridiculous if you think about it.
Kareem also gave credit to today’s players when he was baited into trashing them. When asked about why players aren’t learning the skyhook, he praised them for being good at shooting the three
even kobe mentor some of new generation players like "i want you to never give up at all cost" i think kobe is the one who can hang around players like wilt,kareem,bill rusell,jordan,bird,magic etc while at the same time he hang around players like lebron,KD,harden,steph,kyrie,kawhi etc and also hang around and mentor players like jayson tatum,ben simmons,luka,devin booker etc,also he enjoy the moment from his career with his generation like AI,tim duncan,tracy mcgrady,vince,shaq etc it means that you can hang around with old-timer while also have a good communication to current and future superstars
Yes Look how stupid he looks saying 5 word in the language of foreign players expecting to receive a congratulation He is not funny Chuck bothering him is funny.
I went to a military school and was also amber of a fraternity in college. As a freshman in high school and as a pledge, I got hazed. Upperclassmen would always call us soft because we supposedly had much easier times than they had it. I think this goes right in line with the topic of this video. People love to disparage the following generations because of their own bias. Appreciate the video!

@@brandonw6139 music was better back then. Marvin Gaye, Temptations, Prince, Michael Jackson, Luther, Aretha, etc. I like Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Usher, and Ed Sheeran but the the old heads are right about the music.

Just want to say Tim Duncan should come out and be like shaq u have 4 rings I have 5 u have 1 MVP I have 2 I was obviously the better all around player and had more skill don't talk on my name and we don't even want to talk the defensive side cause Tim is arguably the greatest defender to never win a DP
@joceja23 Shaq was a serviceable defender most of his career. He wasn't horrible, but he wasn't gonna win awards either. I think he only has one All Defense team selection, too. He knew how to use his size , but scoring on him down low wasn't the toughest thing in the world to do.
I will shred this universe down to its last atom. And then with the stones you've collected for me create a new one teeming with life that knows not what it has lost but only what it has been given. A grateful universe.
And I guarantee you if the current gen players "took them up" on their advice and started playing like they did 30 years ago, the 80s and 90s players would say "Now you're just stealing from us!" Like what do you want from me?!
@@randomgamingchannel132 What kills me is you got people saying things like LeBron wouldn't be anything special if he played in the 90s like he's not a 6'9 250 Ib dude who has the speed of a guard yeah I'm sure he would be terrible because of hand checking and people pushing him more lmao.
I think the real reason they hate is because players today are diminishing the legacy of those who came before. Hard to brag about scoring 40 when James harden does it 11 games straight. Or bragging about being a high flyer when role players are winning the dunk contest every year.
The craziest thing I’d ever heard in regards to this is Kenny Smith saying he would average 26 ppg in the modern NBA. Like dude, you’ve only averaged 15 ppg three different seasons..
@JM yeah, like how back then you could say an offensive joke and ppl would actually laugh. but today racism and things like that arent socially accepted like it was back then. so it truly is a lot of pros and cons
Keep in mind, Ander......it won't be that much longer until your generation starts shitting on the younger generation to. That's something that gets passed down consistently. You're probably gonna tell me I'm wrong because you've convinced yourself it won't happen to you and therefore it won't happen to your generation either, but you'd be wrong.
When the old heads complain about basketball being less physical, they need to be reminded that it's their fault. They started fights and tried to injure people for driving in the paint. Bill Laimbeer was the worst one.
I don’t understand why nba players are like this. Nfl legends are way more respectful of the current game. Lawrence Taylor is the goat defensive player and he thinks jj watt is better than him.
It is a toxic cycle that needs to end. This is pretty much due to the media but aren't they supposed to promote the current game? I dun get it. There are pros and cons for every era and they have to live with it.
They just salty that the game is developing without them . Like how high school seniors think that the school will be trash after they leave(no fun, etc.)
Draymond Green is the most underrated and most disrespected NBA player of all time. The guy is the best defensive player EVER! There are videos about this, and even Kobe Bryant made one. The guy has the highest winning percentage in the NBA ever, and was almost undefeated when he has a triple-double. He even had a triple-double points without scoring. Put respect in Draymond's name.
Theres a lot of hypocrisy and double standards on the oldheads side. When Marcus Morris committed that hard foul on Luka Doncic the oldheads were saying things like “Morris is fake tough. Dudes back then would’ve checked him”. But when someone like Charles Oakley commits a similar hard foul the oldheads are like “When men were men and today’s NBA is soft.”
The Pistons were a bit much. They were trying to end careers. I have no issue with hard fouls. I have a problem people sweeping the legs while a player's in the air.
Man you took the words right out of my mouth. I've been feeling like this about the league for a long time now. Nothing I love more than a good finals game with Mark Jackson and Mike bang Breen but van gundy honestly ruins it for me with his unnecessary hate and aggressive commentary. Way too many retired players just resort to hate to make them feel better about what they left on the court. Eras change bro, you're legends of the game and your legacy isn't about to improve from you hating
Thank you for addressing this topic, because it is annoying as hell. Ryan Russillo said once that the two most protective groups in the world are parents over their children, and 90s NBA players over their era own era. They are INSUFFERABLE. Going back much further than the 90s, the worst example of this kind of crap is Oscar Robertson saying that all teams needed to do to stop Steph Curry is to rough him up and guard him full court, and that coaches today just don't understand basketball. There's arguably more talent and more great players in the league right now than in any other time in NBA history. I feel sorry for these former stars or anyone else who can't just appreciate and enjoy the greatness in front of them. They're missing out.
That's why I'm starting to be a big LeBron fan. I know for a fact he'll respect the next generation. Also, though it isn't basketball, I remember a pitcher named Trevor Bauer that expressed that he feels the same way about commentary
Tbh, this era is actually the best era, I mean we witnessed steph go off and bloom, while 3pt shooting became bigger, Kawhi and lebron went at it, the warriors and cavs era, the 2016 come back, the game 7s, the bubble, etc
back in my day we figured out something called fire, now you youngins have your totparts and pothockets and ePhones. we didn’t have that when i was a boy
I actually agree that the modern NBA lacks the variation to be as appealing, and this shouldn’t be ignored. Just look at heat maps. However, skill levels are very high now. They’re just constrained by moneyball type stats.
Thank you for this video. It’s definitely not talked about enough. It’s exhausting listening to the TNT crew talk. Shaquille is the most insecure Hall of Famer ask Paul Pierce that I’ve ever seen in my life. At some point some of the things they say just comes across personal and not about basketball at all
Another great old guy on commentary was Hubie Brown, his age has pretty much caught up to him now and he can’t cover games anymore, but I always liked how he was appreciative and in awe of the young guys
It all comes down to basketball IQ and the capacity to adapt. Steve Kerr was an excellent commentator before returning to the NBA as a coach this time and Kobe was so good with Details.
AI is such a likeable legend because he never seems bitter about the new era of hoops. He always appreciates the new generation of greats. He doesn’t care if you played against him or if you play now. If you’re a killa then you’re a killa.
The NFL doesn’t have this problem, old players give new players credit while appreciating both eras. You don’t hear Michael Vick saying, “If Lamar Jackson played in my era he wouldn’t last”. Or Brett Favre saying “Pat Mahomes can’t throw a football as hard as I did.”
Jay Bilas made the exact same argument about modern vs past eras of basketball, and just life in general. He compared the argument about the 90s and today's basketball to the era of today and the "greatest generation" charging in on D-day during WWII. Talent and competitiveness didn't stop after the 90s, nor did the bravery shown in WWII ceased after that time. Saying Michael Jordan is the greatest is a profound statement, but not because today's era is weak and is talentless. I would recommend anyone to watch that video
I am glad I do not act like that. The past will never be the past. Enjoy it for what it is and learn to enjoy what is happening now before it is gone. Generational talent is what it is, people are a product of our era. Take what is best from every decade and roll with it. There are Good and bad things from every era. Instead of hating let us remain optimistic and make the best NBA there can be. Do not live in the past, or you may die there. This is coming from someone who is 46.
I'm feeling you. Since the 1970s, I'm hearing old heads saying their era was better, they were more fundamentally sound, they were tougher, smarter and weren't playing for the love of the game. Thus, their athletes are also their GOATs. Why not celebrating every period of time? Each decade I've seen had their great moments and their letdown, their highs and their lows. About the futile GOAT debate... Why not saying X player dominate Y era... Because 1990s athletes never played against everyone in the NBA history and rules/strategies/tendencies/coaching philosophy are obviously different. I'm also tired of this saying : X player would score 70 PPG if he played today [Wilt Chamberlain quote from 1997 NBA all-star weekend]...
@J D I don't believe it. Even the greatest scorer ever Wilt Chamberlain wouldn't be able to average 50 PPG today. It wasn't better back then. It was different.
@J D It's a bit more complex than that. You change one rule and the entire landscape of the league change & your strategies became obsolete. The mid-range game is dead today because of the rules adopted after 2004 : abolition of the illegal defense, etc. And don't forget what Wilt Chamberlain said to Jordan when they met in 1997... I've seen both players and Wilt Chamberlain was the best I've seen. And I don't Wilt Chamberlain would scored 70 PPG in 1997 like he stated. m.ruclips.net/video/Lhu1MMtaMz0/видео.html
@J D Yes, but zone defenses (sagging & roaming players) also deteriorated this facet of the game... Which also explains why fewer centers are posting up right now, but guards started to add this skill on their arc. You should watch the video I linked or start to binge watch Thinking Basketball Channel.
@J D You're not helping your case. You're saying "it was better when I grew up", "it was bad before and after that period". You're sounding like the old heads I was referring in the first place. People of my age was pretending their era was better than yours in the 1990s...
@J D Thinking Basketball made a podcast for his Patreon donators. He tackled this "50 PPG myth." I highly suggest you listen to it. I should be the one being the old man criticizing your era, not you. Like I said. The game is different, not worse or better. Strangely, the smartest basketball minds never critize any given era or make assumptions based on their opinions. They always respect EVERY NBA greats and understand the complexity of the game. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bill Russell named a few guys that could dominate in any era. Those players tresceded their era. Jordan was amongst them... And we both know there are players in today's game that could dominate in any era.
Shaq was the greatest under achiever in NBA history. Phil Jackson famously wrote in his book, "If shaq had applied himself he'd have won MVP every year and they'd have renamed the Larry O'Brian to the Shaquille O'Neal trophy. The hard part was motivating him to take this seriously."
The most disgusting instance of this was Shaq downplaying the phenomenal moment Luka was having vs the Clippers. Even the other guys were on him for being negative for no reason. As much as I love Shaq as a player and personality, his insecure side can be down right unwatchable at times.
@Alexander the Great i disagree. i think having insight from former players always hold a bit of value, and shaq is entertaining when he isn't acting bitter or insecure. hell, i only really watch half time shows when its Shaq, Kenny, and Chuck all having a good time. But the moments where Shaq or Chuck are just bashing something about todays game are definitely annoying and need to stop.
Agree, 100%! I hate to watch the commentary of the TNT crew because more often then not, they are putting some player or team down or making predictions that fail to materialize! I just lower the volume to tune them out.
i remember one funny moment where kenny said about some shooter: his feet aren't square to the basket, he will miss his shot to the left. the video plays and the brick hits to the right. the elbow is the aiming device, some of the best shooters in the world DONT have their feet square to the basket, but kenny the expert knows it all
@@BAMA-MAN256, When people stop playing basketball the way that it is taught, the game will start evolving. Example: shooting the basketball the "incorrect way" but it works for them. Ex. Shawn Marion.
It is soft to a degree especially when it comes to calling technicals for a showing a little emotion. It’s not really the players faults it’s just the league is just too sensitive about its image.
Along with Steve Nash who loves this new era and says that he should’ve played more like players do now. Aka shooting more, shorting more 3s specifically
He sort of pulled a KD before KD. His team blew a 3-1 lead to the Rockets in 1995 and then two years he gets traded to that same team. A big 3 of Olajuwon, Barkley and Drexler.
Also, it is noticeable that you mention legends like Russell and AI liking modern ball, yet many “modern” fans dismiss their accomplishments because they weren’t efficient or didn’t shoot enough 3’s. That’s just as irritating to an Old School fan than what you’re mentioning, and I’ve actually seen more eras than someone who is only familiar with this one. Recency bias is tremendously irritating.
They say the post game isn't efficient and shit on the mid range game. So I know your frustration. As if everyone doing their best Golden State rendition is great basketball.
I love this video because it describes the problem I have with today in general. Everyone focuses on criticisms and being right. People will have these debates and comparisons and bring people down just to bring others up and it's all for the sake of being right. And even if they are right, it takes away the enjoyment. Like why do I need to constantly watch sports or listen to music or play video games, etc with a critical lens? Why can't we just enjoy the experience?
Here's a reason why I like players commentating, they talk about plays and different offenses. And explain how that office makes certain players look good, great even and how it doesn't suit other players. Like Mike dantoni offense mixed with james harden makes inflated ground breaking numbers, same reason nash got mvp. And Gilbert arenas when he changed the wizards playbook they started winning and he was an all star for 3 straight years. Both offenses had the guard as the first scoring option. Stuff like that, normal fans wouldn't understand even pro or semi pro analysts that were not formal players wouldn't understand bc they haven't played the game as much, they either forgot being on a team in highschool and having to understand plays. Or they weren't on the team in general so they damn near leave out that aspect of the game when analyzing basketball
i do like some old players like jordan,kobe,magic,hakeem but at the same time i can appreciate and show some love to people like luka doncic,booker,trae young that really want to takeover the nba once people like bron,steph,KD,harden,kawhi etc retired i think that different era really changes the way people watch the nba. people like kobe,tim duncan,kevin garnett,dirk nowitzki,vince carter are some of really top notch players to play different nba style. physicals in 90's to mid 00's and heavily changed into 3pt's in 10's. and those people did little to none ranting and saying "back in our days blablabla"
Yo Rusty, one thing I have noticed, and I have heard damn near everyone not named Mike Korzemba say this, normally the more work you put into videos the worse they seem to do. It makes no sense but I guess attention spans are low as hell. I loved the video, 25 minutes is long but it was necessary.
None of them can be objective about there criticism anymore. They may have good points about posting up more and the need to play more physical defense and stop flopping but they say it in all the wrong ways. Plz feel free to tell me I'm wrong
Even when Im not the biggest fan of the constant 3-point shotting, I think that the game is being played at an incredible high level, both physically, technically, and even tactically.

If I'm nor mistaken in the 1992 dream team hall of fame ceremony, Larry Bird gave a speech about how the older generation needed to appreciate amazing things they never thought possible.
Like Klay scoring 60 points withouth even dribbling. That was a really good moment and it meant a lot coming from one of the goats of the old generations.
"BACK IN MY DAYS" is so dumb

@Minimal Interest oldhead
@Minimal Interest I mean you are literally older than them so they can call you old head
@Minimal Interest yah kind off I’d say today is so much better tho but I see your point
@Minimal Interest fax segregation was🔥 no cap. Old days> new school
You are 100% right, it does give a negative image to the league in general. My long time friend got into basketball only last year, and he is convinced that 90s basketball is so much better than today, as if he followed basketball back then. It gives casuals and new fans that didn't develop any critical thinking about the NBA yet the idea that the NBA is watered down
A.I and Kobe are the only 2 legends I can think of off the top of my head who actually appreciate this generation of basketball. It’s honestly pretty ridiculous if you think about it.
Larry Bird does too and even thinks that this era may be the greatest ever and that says a lot considering he went again Magic, Kareem, Jordan, etc
Kareem also gave credit to today’s players when he was baited into trashing them. When asked about why players aren’t learning the skyhook, he praised them for being good at shooting the three
even kobe mentor some of new generation players like "i want you to never give up at all cost"
i think kobe is the one who can hang around players like wilt,kareem,bill rusell,jordan,bird,magic etc while at the same time he hang around players like lebron,KD,harden,steph,kyrie,kawhi etc and also hang around and mentor players like jayson tatum,ben simmons,luka,devin booker etc,also he enjoy the moment from his career with his generation like AI,tim duncan,tracy mcgrady,vince,shaq etc
it means that you can hang around with old-timer while also have a good communication to current and future superstars
Bruh Kobe played in this generation of basketball. He retired in 2016. Of course he's fine with it
I.T too
In my opinion, shaq always comes across as a narcissist. He always needs the centre of attention but because he is entertaining, people don’t mind.
Yeah, he even got mad because Kobe was gradually climbing up in Jersey sales when Shaq was the star of the Lakers team
Yes
Look how stupid he looks saying 5 word in the language of foreign players expecting to receive a congratulation
He is not funny
Chuck bothering him is funny.
When Kyle Lowry retires he will not hate any of the current players
Because he's better than all them combined
Easily the goat smile next to magic

I think the real reason they hate is because players today are diminishing the legacy of those who came before. Hard to brag about scoring 40 when James harden does it 11 games straight. Or bragging about being a high flyer when role players are winning the dunk contest every year.
The craziest thing I’d ever heard in regards to this is Kenny Smith saying he would average 26 ppg in the modern NBA. Like dude, you’ve only averaged 15 ppg three different seasons..

I think that's part of why new era players has so much love for kobe, he never hated in the new era always just tried to help train and give advice
When the old heads complain about basketball being less physical, they need to be reminded that it's their fault. They started fights and tried to injure people for driving in the paint. Bill Laimbeer was the worst one.
I was so bored thank god this came out
I don’t understand why nba players are like this. Nfl legends are way more respectful of the current game. Lawrence Taylor is the goat defensive player and he thinks jj watt is better than him.

Draymond Green is the most underrated and most disrespected NBA player of all time. The guy is the best defensive player EVER! There are videos about this, and even Kobe Bryant made one. The guy has the highest winning percentage in the NBA ever, and was almost undefeated when he has a triple-double. He even had a triple-double points without scoring. Put respect in Draymond's name.

Theres a lot of hypocrisy and double standards on the oldheads side.
When Marcus Morris committed that hard foul on Luka Doncic the oldheads were saying things like “Morris is fake tough. Dudes back then would’ve checked him”. But when someone like Charles Oakley commits a similar hard foul the oldheads are like “When men were men and today’s NBA is soft.”

Thank you for addressing this topic, because it is annoying as hell. Ryan Russillo said once that the two most protective groups in the world are parents over their children, and 90s NBA players over their era own era. They are INSUFFERABLE.
Going back much further than the 90s, the worst example of this kind of crap is Oscar Robertson saying that all teams needed to do to stop Steph Curry is to rough him up and guard him full court, and that coaches today just don't understand basketball.
There's arguably more talent and more great players in the league right now than in any other time in NBA history. I feel sorry for these former stars or anyone else who can't just appreciate and enjoy the greatness in front of them. They're missing out.
That's why I'm starting to be a big LeBron fan. I know for a fact he'll respect the next generation. Also, though it isn't basketball, I remember a pitcher named Trevor Bauer that expressed that he feels the same way about commentary
Tbh, this era is actually the best era, I mean we witnessed steph go off and bloom, while 3pt shooting became bigger, Kawhi and lebron went at it, the warriors and cavs era, the 2016 come back, the game 7s, the bubble, etc

I actually agree that the modern NBA lacks the variation to be as appealing, and this shouldn’t be ignored. Just look at heat maps.
However, skill levels are very high now. They’re just constrained by moneyball type stats.
Damn, Me and Shaq are getting old! 😂 Well, like Max Kellerman said: it beats the alternative.
Thank you for this video. It’s definitely not talked about enough. It’s exhausting listening to the TNT crew talk. Shaquille is the most insecure Hall of Famer ask Paul Pierce that I’ve ever seen in my life. At some point some of the things they say just comes across personal and not about basketball at all
No one cares h/0
Another great old guy on commentary was Hubie Brown, his age has pretty much caught up to him now and he can’t cover games anymore, but I always liked how he was appreciative and in awe of the young guys
Im glad this topic is brought up because some people just agree with them because they are legends
The blind followers, and their influence over the masses is what makes it so toxic.
It all comes down to basketball IQ and the capacity to adapt. Steve Kerr was an excellent commentator before returning to the NBA as a coach this time and Kobe was so good with Details.
AI is such a likeable legend because he never seems bitter about the new era of hoops. He always appreciates the new generation of greats. He doesn’t care if you played against him or if you play now. If you’re a killa then you’re a killa.
Yea, he isnt threatened by the new talent. The former greats would still be great in any era. Doesnt mean the newer talents arent great too.
The NFL doesn’t have this problem, old players give new players credit while appreciating both eras. You don’t hear Michael Vick saying, “If Lamar Jackson played in my era he wouldn’t last”. Or Brett Favre saying “Pat Mahomes can’t throw a football as hard as I did.”
I’m a big suns fan, Eddie Johnson is amazing. I feel the critiques he make are usually fair, he doesn’t just tear down modern basketball.
Yeah he’s pretty good to listen to. I also like listening to Doug Christie announce kings games and dell curry announce Hornets games
Jay Bilas made the exact same argument about modern vs past eras of basketball, and just life in general. He compared the argument about the 90s and today's basketball to the era of today and the "greatest generation" charging in on D-day during WWII. Talent and competitiveness didn't stop after the 90s, nor did the bravery shown in WWII ceased after that time. Saying Michael Jordan is the greatest is a profound statement, but not because today's era is weak and is talentless. I would recommend anyone to watch that video
I am glad I do not act like that. The past will never be the past. Enjoy it for what it is and learn to enjoy what is happening now before it is gone. Generational talent is what it is, people are a product of our era. Take what is best from every decade and roll with it. There are Good and bad things from every era. Instead of hating let us remain optimistic and make the best NBA there can be. Do not live in the past, or you may die there. This is coming from someone who is 46.
Shutup
I be waiting on you to drop all day😂💯
I'm feeling you.
Since the 1970s, I'm hearing old heads saying their era was better, they were more fundamentally sound, they were tougher, smarter and weren't playing for the love of the game. Thus, their athletes are also their GOATs.
Why not celebrating every period of time? Each decade I've seen had their great moments and their letdown, their highs and their lows.
About the futile GOAT debate... Why not saying X player dominate Y era... Because 1990s athletes never played against everyone in the NBA history and rules/strategies/tendencies/coaching philosophy are obviously different.
I'm also tired of this saying : X player would score 70 PPG if he played today [Wilt Chamberlain quote from 1997 NBA all-star weekend]...
@J D
I don't believe it. Even the greatest scorer ever Wilt Chamberlain wouldn't be able to average 50 PPG today.
It wasn't better back then. It was different.
@J D
It's a bit more complex than that. You change one rule and the entire landscape of the league change & your strategies became obsolete. The mid-range game is dead today because of the rules adopted after 2004 : abolition of the illegal defense, etc.
And don't forget what Wilt Chamberlain said to Jordan when they met in 1997... I've seen both players and Wilt Chamberlain was the best I've seen. And I don't Wilt Chamberlain would scored 70 PPG in 1997 like he stated.
m.ruclips.net/video/Lhu1MMtaMz0/видео.html
@J D
Yes, but zone defenses (sagging & roaming players) also deteriorated this facet of the game... Which also explains why fewer centers are posting up right now, but guards started to add this skill on their arc.
You should watch the video I linked or start to binge watch Thinking Basketball Channel.
@J D
You're not helping your case. You're saying "it was better when I grew up", "it was bad before and after that period".
You're sounding like the old heads I was referring in the first place. People of my age was pretending their era was better than yours in the 1990s...
@J D
Thinking Basketball made a podcast for his Patreon donators. He tackled this "50 PPG myth."
I highly suggest you listen to it.
I should be the one being the old man criticizing your era, not you.
Like I said. The game is different, not worse or better. Strangely, the smartest basketball minds never critize any given era or make assumptions based on their opinions. They always respect EVERY NBA greats and understand the complexity of the game.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bill Russell named a few guys that could dominate in any era. Those players tresceded their era. Jordan was amongst them... And we both know there are players in today's game that could dominate in any era.
Shaq was the greatest under achiever in NBA history. Phil Jackson famously wrote in his book, "If shaq had applied himself he'd have won MVP every year and they'd have renamed the Larry O'Brian to the Shaquille O'Neal trophy. The hard part was motivating him to take this seriously."
The most disgusting instance of this was Shaq downplaying the phenomenal moment Luka was having vs the Clippers. Even the other guys were on him for being negative for no reason. As much as I love Shaq as a player and personality, his insecure side can be down right unwatchable at times.
@Alexander the Great i disagree. i think having insight from former players always hold a bit of value, and shaq is entertaining when he isn't acting bitter or insecure. hell, i only really watch half time shows when its Shaq, Kenny, and Chuck all having a good time. But the moments where Shaq or Chuck are just bashing something about todays game are definitely annoying and need to stop.
I think the main thing is the super team concept, which annoys the older guys. (though ironically, it was the KG celtics that started it).
Agree, 100%! I hate to watch the commentary of the TNT crew because more often then not, they are putting some player or team down or making predictions that fail to materialize! I just lower the volume to tune them out.
i remember one funny moment where kenny said about some shooter: his feet aren't square to the basket, he will miss his shot to the left. the video plays and the brick hits to the right. the elbow is the aiming device, some of the best shooters in the world DONT have their feet square to the basket, but kenny the expert knows it all

If you really want to blame someone for making the league soft blame old nba teams for fight 24/7 and the refs for being power hungry
No it's not
Will Strickland it was a joke
These NBA players are stronger than ever.
Along with Steve Nash who loves this new era and says that he should’ve played more like players do now. Aka shooting more, shorting more 3s specifically
My only issue is when Charles acts like he never switched teams
He sort of pulled a KD before KD.
His team blew a 3-1 lead to the Rockets in 1995 and then two years he gets traded to that same team. A big 3 of Olajuwon, Barkley and Drexler.
@Earl The Pearl but didn’t he demand to be traded there tho
i love your bluntness and honesty
Also, it is noticeable that you mention legends like Russell and AI liking modern ball, yet many “modern” fans dismiss their accomplishments because they weren’t efficient or didn’t shoot enough 3’s.
That’s just as irritating to an Old School fan than what you’re mentioning, and I’ve actually seen more eras than someone who is only familiar with this one. Recency bias is tremendously irritating.
They say the post game isn't efficient and shit on the mid range game. So I know your frustration. As if everyone doing their best Golden State rendition is great basketball.
nothing is more sufferable in the NBA than during All Star Break listening to Kenny Smith. Especially during the damn slam dunk contest.
I love this video because it describes the problem I have with today in general. Everyone focuses on criticisms and being right. People will have these debates and comparisons and bring people down just to bring others up and it's all for the sake of being right. And even if they are right, it takes away the enjoyment. Like why do I need to constantly watch sports or listen to music or play video games, etc with a critical lens? Why can't we just enjoy the experience?

Here's a reason why I like players commentating, they talk about plays and different offenses. And explain how that office makes certain players look good, great even and how it doesn't suit other players. Like Mike dantoni offense mixed with james harden makes inflated ground breaking numbers, same reason nash got mvp. And Gilbert arenas when he changed the wizards playbook they started winning and he was an all star for 3 straight years. Both offenses had the guard as the first scoring option. Stuff like that, normal fans wouldn't understand even pro or semi pro analysts that were not formal players wouldn't understand bc they haven't played the game as much, they either forgot being on a team in highschool and having to understand plays. Or they weren't on the team in general so they damn near leave out that aspect of the game when analyzing basketball
I bet those comments Wilt told MJ fueled him even more lol Wilt didn’t know he created the goat indirectly 😂

i think that different era really changes the way people watch the nba. people like kobe,tim duncan,kevin garnett,dirk nowitzki,vince carter are some of really top notch players to play different nba style. physicals in 90's to mid 00's and heavily changed into 3pt's in 10's. and those people did little to none ranting and saying "back in our days blablabla"

For former players turned media personalities . . . hype > ratings > sponsors > money> rinse and repeat. . .
None of them can be objective about there criticism anymore. They may have good points about posting up more and the need to play more physical defense and stop flopping but they say it in all the wrong ways. Plz feel free to tell me I'm wrong
Even when Im not the biggest fan of the constant 3-point shotting, I think that the game is being played at an incredible high level, both physically, technically, and even tactically.
