Greatest basketball team ever assembled….

[Pastafazul]

Terrible comparison.

Did teams get away with illegal defense sometimes with a player out of position?

Of course.

Did they play zone defense?

Of course not.

lol , agreeing to disagree yet again

Why do you think they implemented the illegal D 3 sec rule ?

Maybe because zone D was played durin the 90’s , and not enforced, legalized in ‘01 still had issues, and then the 3 second rule which seems to have the most impact, and yet how often is that really called ?

Does anything really change?

Nope.

It was a complicated rule to be sure.

A guy being out of legal position and refs missing the call is not even close to the same thing as a team intentionally playing zone defense.

Which is what you are claiming.

What actually did happen was teams played man, and a guy went over to help too far or lost track of his man while ball watching.

And sometimes the ref missed it because it was a very complicated rule. 3 seconds is much simpler.

And couldn’t stop him!

I think I figured it out

T lance was a ref in the 90’s

So I will take that as a no.

Because you have nothing to back up your claims.

The argument of you having credibility is never over as long as you’re on the side of having it.

I’m no basketball guru but this back and forth with him you’ve had, he’s objectively making more sense than you.

He’s not being objective, he’s being obtuse

You are just making up nonsense and claiming to be right.

Just because you say something ignorant over and over again doesn’t make it and better.

Why are you avoiding googling’ the myth that MJ never faced zone d’ .

It has video of games played during the 90’s, post season games, reg games, games where Drexel and Bird were zoned up, Knicks zoning upHakeem in ‘95 finals proving that it was done. MJ’s famous in da face of Ewing ‘91 . Wasn’t just MJ.

Zone defenses were used by many teams in the 90’s on several possessions in games. To say it wasn’t used cause it was illegal is very naive.

YOU ADMITTED THAT IT WAS in your own way.

So what da hell am I ignorantly stating?

Dude, now we’re getting to the pathetic stage

I was roped up in practice

1-1 zone trap 1-2-2 2-3 3-2 zone in the past much more difficult

Zone today , please , no defense is even played.
