It had everything to do with the topic that I was discussing with tlance as I was providing a cause-and-effect argument for the necessity for referees to reign in this exponential growth in traveling on all levels. We came to the conclusion that the NBA does not want that to happen.

Honestly man, as someone who is now going to the gym 5 to 6 times a week the fact you are powerlifting for that long is impressive.

Leflop can

BS.

Any comment on the fact that people were having these same conversations about traveling 35 years ago?

Some rules have actually changed and become more lenient, but the single biggest difference is social media and availability of video clips.

Anybody can make a clip reel and comment on them today. Was much, much harder before the internet.

Don’t confuse that with thinking that stars from the 80s and 90s didn’t travel.

For the 100 gazillionth time…

I don’t copy and paste

If I did, would set sporthoops record for reaction laughs!

Now…

There is a deepfake out there somewhere that has LeBron catching the ball around half court and taking 6 or 7 steps before dunking. Had close to 3 million views.

But that is a fake. It is not a real clip.

Looks like you got got.

So then we will all go with you lying and exaggerating.

Thanks for clearing that up!
I may need to try it his way. MJ was known to be able to go from his own FT line to a layup/dunk without a dribble. Heard he went entire games without dribbling yet had the highest usage on his team. Lebron spent entire games dribbling never taking any steps without a dribble. This is all well known.

How'd I do?
