Lots of posters on this board remain in complete denial about the "Modern NBA"... especially meatball grizz, jizzin' all over himself over Joker when the man is clearly benefiting from today's weak and soft Defense:

"The rules really favor offense, in general, right now” - 4-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert, 2024

"This (the All Star game) is what a lot of the regular-season games are starting to look like too." - LeFraud James, 2024

"People like to see people get 60 and 70 and do all that. How are you going to do that if somebody can be physical and be handsy and be aggressive in that way? So, I personally don't think that the balance is there." - Jrue Holiday, 2024

"It's harder to just clog the paint, which is what you really need to do against these top players. ... Offenses are just so spaced and wide-open that if you give these great guys space, they're almost impossible to guard." - Derrick White, 2024

"There was a point, I believe, In the late 90s, when the game became too physical... maybe it weighted too heavily on physicality where a big strong player could come in and prevent an incredibly skilled player from doing those kinds of things. A smaller player like Steph Curry, when you think of his ability to shoot and move to the paint, if guys can just bang him and knock him to the ground, as that was once the case in the league, I don't think that would be a better brand of basketball." - NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, 2024, when asked by Kevin Garnett about the lack of defense in the modern game, and why the league doesn't want to return to the aggressive defense of the '90s

But then again, what the hell does the NBA Commissioner and the actual players know about the game today, amirite??? It's the BWGC who we need to trust and believe because they have charts and graphs and fake-stats, and lots of other stuff and reasons.

:ol:

There is someone in denial ITT, but it isn't me. It's you. Joker in the 90s would have obliterated the competition. Obliterated. Be thankful the man who's image is on your jammies didn't have to face him.

Word on the street Brad Stevens will be trading for Jokic this summer.

The size seemed to really bother Denver yesterday. Minnesota has guys who can bang with Joker and make his life difficult.

In other words last night gave us a glimpse of what Joker (the heralded "best player in the game" in today's supposed "vastly superior NBA") would look like if he played in the 80's-00's...

The next three games:

33 PPG
9 RPG
10 APG
58 percent shooting
3-0 record against top 5 team.

Good call TDK!

Can you imagine the Joker going up against the vast majority of the list of starting Cs from the 1996 season that you provided. It would be hilarious.

Jokic for Brown & our next four 1st round picks.

Make it happen, Brad!

[Uncontroversial]

Does Rob still believe Tatum is better and more valuable than Jokic?

Celtics faithful posters here reveling with the idea of trading for the best white star in the NBA.

That racism knows little bounds.

Reported.


(also I remember back in the day some here were claiming other Euros like Pau & Dirk aren't white.)

Can't use own tactic against me!!!

I'd absolutely put on the White hood in order to get Joker, at least for a little while.

He's really, really good.
