Basketball was glorious in the 80's and 90's. This era feels like the WWE..

Really so you liked no offense basketball in the 90's with hand checking and teams able to stop the flow of the game by clogging up the middle of the paint??

Miami and New York having literally slug fest and barley getting 80+ points??

Yeah that was the golden age of basketball..lol

srsly tho flopping has always been a thing in the NBA, Frank Ramsey wrote about his flopping techniques in sports illustrated in the 1950s ffs. saying its a 21st century thing is just lol

the league has been cutting down on it for years now. nba is in a pretty good state right now.

You won't see me argue agaist that, although its not because of the player safety rules its due to the constant hampering of defense. Flopping still isn't as prevalent in the NFL. 

Yes it is...

Yes. The game was much better then. Most tend to agree and it's getting some traction recently. The NBA has a problem and it seems that they are finally considering that something needs to be done. Hand checking seems to be one of the things being considered to stop the nothing but 3s and no defense trend

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t remember Mills from the USFL days just when he was in NO.  But when you saw Smitty it screamed oh yeah, this guy has something. Immediately. So, have not seen anything that dramatic with Young. All I know about him says he is solid with his character and smarts and don’t see a lot of that translating into screaming he really has something. I think the people that say he could possibly acceptably run an offense designed around him, with top flight talent in support, are probably about right. But I can’t see any Pro Bowls or lofty accomplishments in my crystal ball.

      Goodbye chain gang?

      I thought I read they’d still be there but as a backup in case of malfunction.  So it’s not so much a goodbye as it is they’re being sidelined (I’ll see myself out)

      Their forecheck is relentless because they are so physical and heavy.  It’s just a perfect mashup for how they play. Florida before Paul Marice played just like us. Speed but with finesse.  Paul made them but into playing heavy. They went and got players that added to that style he wants and it works.  Plus they have the best goalie in the league.  That helps more than anything. The canes have got let Koochie be their guy he will never become the star that most think he will if rod keeps sticking with vets that flame out.    1. Koochie or a Soros type player  2. Switch to zone defense  3. Get heavier.    like I said, I love Rod. Best pro coach ever in the Carolinas sports buy he is holding us back with his philosophy and style.  He is the reason.  He can change all of that with decisions.
