D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Dominique Wilkins @DWilkins21 6h
Watch the film. No close outs on D, doubles were late, rotations were slow. It was too easy to score. At 54 y/o I could drop 40 on that D

Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Sad actually. There is no reason for any of these guys to knock something like that...on any player. It only comes off as the bitter old guy...or the back in my day guy.
Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Even when he played Wilkins was always in the 2nd tier of superstars. These days people hardly ever mention him. As a result he's not happy about seeing young players do well, it only pushes him further into the background.

Whenever his name gets brought up, he's more remembered for his participation in the dunk competitions than his actual play on the court.

Wow another retired legend with an opinion. Let's rake him over the fucking coals because we totally know better.

I trust the insight of someone who's actually played the game over a bunch of jackoffs at ESPN who get paid to hype up every stellar performance in prisoner of the moment fashion for the sake of TV ratings and website clicks.

Maybe if a team played the bobcats every night he would be.

Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Talking about the D is one thing, but to give a subtle jab by sarcastically implying that at age 54 he could have walked on the floor last night and dropped 40 is extremely absurd.Havlicekstealsit wrote:Wow another retired legend with an opinion.

Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Wow...These old timers are getting more and more pathetic with every soundbyte that has to do with Lebron. Kareem's a little buttsore, and now Wilkins joining the club of disgruntled 'has beens' all in just one week's worth of work. I respect the legends of the game, but shit like this is making it harder and harder as they continually view the modern game and it's stars through the myopic lens of yesteryear.

you actually think Wilkins can score 40 on the bobcats? I bet you believe in aliensAlaskaHawks wrote:AtiliusRegulus wrote:then why isn't Dominique playing.Jims_Doors wrote:Dominique Wilkins @DWilkins21 6h

Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Breh, it's been happening for years, just wasn't always social media to make them exposed like this. However, LeBron did get sonned, because that defense last night was pathetic at best.lettherebehouse wrote:Wow...These old timers are getting more and more pathetic with every soundbyte that has to do with Lebron.

Re: D. Wilkins not impressed by LeBron's 61
Anybody who puts up 50+ points is doing it against weak defenses..even Jordan...it may be against a top defensive team but their defense wasnt on point that particular night...im sure Wilkens put up big numbers against some weak ass defenses

Kareem was right. LeBron was talking out of his ass on the Rushmore thing. Nique just comes off like an old bitter idiot.

that was not the best way to say the feat has been done many times in the past.
the bad defense argument is piss poor.
