    I hate this assumption. Todays players play to the rules and play style that is set for the league. If any of these players played at the park outside or open runs growing up, which is likely, they know what physical basketball can be. If todays ruled allowed them to be as physical as back in the day, they would be just as physical and adjust. Its an easy one for old dudes to run to.
