Boring White Guy Crew - Essentially the boards boring whiteys (Grizz, Bush, Rob) with boring white guys takes.
They are mainly known these days for letting TDK sucker them in and dog walk them on shit talk topics and the fact that they love screeching to “boomers” about modern day players being bigger, faster, stronger but still believe Bill Russell and Babe Ruth are the GOATs in their respective sports.
It’s amazing watching them try to square that round peg.
What’s that word Grizz keeps accusing TDK of, cognitive dissonance or some shit?
Put wilt on those Celtic teams and they'd probably go entire seasons without losing a game. Ben Wallace would have probably averaged 20+ going against him, way better athlete, stronger, better athlete, best defensive player ever etc.
Ben Wallace averaged 9.5 PPG at his peak....but he's averaging 20+ on Bill Russell? lol...terrible troll. Carry on...
So players are overall better athletes and players… but Ben Wallace wouldn’t be better then Bill Russell even though there’s like 40 years separating their careers?
Ben Wallace wouldn't magically become a 20 point scorer, in any era.
Wallace didn't even average 15 points in college.......in Division II.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

I didn’t say he’d become a “20ppg scorer” you fat retard. I said he’d be better than Bill Russell.

No...Wallace would be pretty useless against Russell. Terrible modern choice to use.

Yea… two guys known for rebounding, defense, while being shitty on offense. What a terrible comparison, right fatty?
Russell was also known for running fast breaks and facilitating on the offensive end. Wallace was a tree stump on the offensive end.
Like I said, terrible choice to use.
They’re literally the same player. Only difference is one played for the Celtics so you’re swinging from his nuts.
Apparently modern players were bigger faster stronger better than old players… except Bill Russell.
The mental gymnastics you people do is crazy. Bill Russell was slightly taller… that’s it. Big Ben had nearly 30lbs of muscle on him, was more athletic, and played against better competition, but Bill Russell was apparently still better… even though players evolve and get better lol.
Not opining on the general topic, but Russell was a 99th percentile athlete in his era (top 10 in the world in high jump and near-Olympic level 400 yard performance)
"Athletes are more athletic" is usually a commentary about common and average players within a sport than fringe outliers like Russell, Wilt, Jordan, D-Rob/Dream/Barkley, Lebron, etc...

Players from the 90s aren’t as skilled… but the exception is a player from 1956. Holy fuck I just can’t with this board sometimes…

Both Dennis Rodman and Ben Wallace would absolutely man handle little ass Bill Russell
Oh look...somebody else chose a completely different offensive tree stump.
I don’t think this is a question of offensive prowess… if that’s what you’re basing this comparison on please breakdown the extend of bill russell offensive arsenal and tell me why the elitist defensive big men in NBA history couldn’t neutralize it.
