Yeah - it's frustrating sometimes watching the pros and the bullshit fouls that are called.

Especially when these are the best players in the world and you want to see them COMPETE without the constant starts & stops to the action.
Yeah, there are a lot of fake fouls....., fouls that wouldn't be fouls in the 80s and most of the 90s.

now please:

I was listening to a sports podcaster and he said one of his fave things to do when relaxing is watching late-80s / early-90s Playoff games on Youtube. Said it's easy to forget how good some of those games were.

I definitely remember watching some of those games with friends in junior high / high school.

Hell ... I knew the games were good when kids who did NOT follow sports were talking about the games the next day too ...

Man, I heard some younger folks comment on the nineties and eighties game, it sounded like how they played back then was foreign to them. It was like us watching a game from the fifties. I guess the folks from the nineties and eighties weren't throwin' and chuggin' enough threes for them.

They weren't used to seeing low-post play, lol. They're used to seeing all forwards and centers launching 10 threes a game, haha.
 
Damn ESPN doing Inside the NBA dirty...


The TNT-produced “Inside the NBA” is scheduled to air in a half-hour timeslot following the first ESPN doubleheader of the NBA season October 22, according to the network’s advance schedule. The show would run from 12:05-12:35 AM ET, leading into a Bristol-based “SportsCenter” at 12:35.

After the Opening Week of the season, TNT’s NBA studio show is not guaranteed to take place again until Christmas Day. Per the announcement of ESPN’s licensing agreement last year, the TNT studio is set to air during “the NBA Finals on ABC, Conference Finals, NBA Playoffs, all ABC games after January 1, Christmas Day, opening week, the final week of the season and other marquee live events.”
 
So? NBA Twitter still going strong. BGOL fell off to the point people dont wanna post no more. It's 2025 and yall still dick eating Kobe who's been dead almost 6 years. Even his widow done moved on. The board is old, out of touch and lame now. Why would I post on a board that caters to 3 Bron haters and board characters instead of a way bigger platform that's more current and has more diversity as far as fans? 90% of the posts here come from X anyway. I say why not cut out the middle man? :cheers:

I hadn't posted in months and dudes kept mentioning me cuz they know the board sucks as an echo chamber. BGOL had a good run.


Yet you still post here, you retarded.
 


Austin Rivers says the best scorers he’s seen are KD, Harden, Kobe, MJ, and Iverson, and claims LeBron doesn’t have half of Durant’s bag“LeBron is number one [in scoring], but his game doesn’t match a prototypical scorer. It’s also not sexy. LeBron’s game is built on force, sheer will, dedication, his mind, his IQ, the way he is able to dissect and control a game, and power, above anything else. He wills himself to the basket. Now, you have to give the guy credit. As he’s gotten older, he’s become a better jumpshooter. It’s crazy that he’s going to retire the best jumpshooter he’s ever been…For instance, LeBron has scored more points than Kevin, but Kevin can score in a much bigger variety of ways than LeBron. You can argue with the wall, but that’s just the truth. LeBron doesn’t have half the offensive bag that Kevin has…I would say Kevin [Durant], Carmelo [Anthony], James Harden, Kobe [Bryant], Michael [Jordan], and [Allen] Iverson are the best scorers I’ve ever seen.”
