Greatest basketball team ever assembled….

[tlance]

You are so out of touch …

Back then when they played the game to win at all costs , played hurt . When coaches had control. When every player wasn’t makin 15+ million a year, the physicality in the game was REAL!

Todays game , don’t fuk with another players meal ticket. They want their great great great grandchild to be financially secure!

It’s about money and showmanship today. It’s becoming a joke.

None of this has anything to do with anything I wrote in the quoted post.

Dude.

I was talking about superstars getting calls in the 80s.

None of what you responded with has anything at all to do with that.

Stay on topic.

Didn’t Daly intentionally throw that scrimmage to motivate his guys?

To a degree by sitting Jordan in the 4th. But end of day that team minus jordan should have still won.

Finally someone who knows a thing about ball. This is spot on, I’m so tired of the tots today trying to debate and defend the game today. Clearly lack the IQ to discuss today compared to back then.

lol

If Pasta agrees with you...it's time to re-evaluate your life choices.

 

[trojanfan12]

Finally he says. He's found his hoops guru, Pastafazul. And tlance has zero credibility compared to them.

All we needed was the right intellect to call out Tlance. Should have known he would meet his match.

You guys need to use the green font...neither of them are smart enough to understand sarcasm.

Green font is for amateurs

Exactly, if green font is needed it wasn’t nearly sarcastic enough in the first place.

I was on topic…

You posted that bird and magic facetiously said don’t even come close to MJ or you will be called for ticky tac calls

And I’m sayin there was no such thing as ticky tac calls back then, players were much more aggressive back then cause the refs let them play

floppin back then was probably legit, not like the actors in todays game goin to the ground on a wiff

You are wrong

Yes, they allowed non-basketball violent plays for awhile in the 90s.

But as long as basketball has been played there have been ticky tack calls too.

My high school basketball team was pretty good. Damn near had a winning record

 

[msgkings322]

If the peak Warriors team had a very good shooting night behind the arc, they’d have a strong chance of winning vs DT1 because they’d put up as many points as possible.

No regular team could beat DT1. Need a collection of all stars.

 

[MHSL82]

Superstar step became a thing in the 80s. It is not worse today.

Jordan flopped too. Don’t kid yourself. Every competitor embellishes contact to get calls. Does not make someone soft, it makes them smart.

As I’ve always been saying, we just have too many smart players. Those idiots who never flopped, played hurt, didn’t do the euro step, gather step, etc. were dumb as bricks!

 

[Jordan23]

LOL

Are you denying that?

Ever watch basketball in the 80s?

Dream Team tour bus there is a famous clip of Larry and Magic joking about “you can’t get to close to MJ or it is a foul”

Superstar calls became a thing in the 80s as the league really tried to market its biggest names.

If you think Jordan whines then you either are blind as fuck or haven’t been watching basketball this decade. It’s like watching toddlers out there.

 

[Jordan23]

In this case he was correct.

Not in comparison to today’s game.

Never said he whined. At least not during games in any kind of public way.

Said he flopped.

And he did. A lot.
