@moneymarc3 they would basically take a look at that every time a big stays in the paint for more than 3 seconds. zone defense was not illegal back then, they still do it, and they do it all the time, not to mention the handckecking and the physicality in the paint. go watch games in the 80's then compare games int he 80's to today's game, you know what i mean by this
-
it is easy to execute layups and dunks because of the free-movement initiative: the no 3 second rule, the no handcheck from the perimeter: basically eliminating all contact in the game, thus you dont see up-and unders as often as you would back in the day
-
lebron does this and so soes wade, but it is rare you would see them do that
-
@psychomajoreflex again, like i said, KOBE does up and unders and reverses in SOME games, i use the term strongly, as jordan (if you watch basketball in the 80's and 90's)...in fact, almost every player back then does that. so which in fact, due to the defenses and the no 3-second rule back then, you would see many players (ie magic larry, clyde) and especially jordan do this often.
-
although jordan's athleticism will decline a bit after his first retirement 96-98 (this is natural when you age playing sports) his skill is prolific as well, thus creating perimeter shots and setting an example for KOBE to play for his career. remember, most of KOBE's plays he emulates from jordan's career post 1st-retirement, eg. fadeaways, three point shots, circus shots, etc
-
unlike KOBE, jordan has a blast full of talent (as a bull) from the day he was drafted to the NBA to the day he retires in 98. he had many options other than just creating tough shots on the perimeter, which involves innumerous hangtime, change directions in mid air to create layups and dunks, and ability to create something out of nothing. he did this constantly in ever game, especially when considering that KOBE up and unders in some games he does it every game.
-
KOBE does wield the skills to create shots from the perimeter, but that is the best he is able to do especially when he is in decline, meaning that he no longer has the agility and the quick 1st step to drive the basket as much as he did in the past. even then, his talent in the past when driving to score is his up and under move, and thats about that, other than that, his drive is not as advance as jordan's.
-
@moneymarc3 a lot of people think of this because either they have watched how jordan play, or they know how to execute through defenses as well as jordan when they play a physical game of basketball, you cannot compare KOBE to jordan when both eras of different, as well as their individual talents as well
-
@moneymarc3 when you state that KOBE in eh 80's would perform better against the physical defenses than he had over the last 13 years meant that he would do more than MJ. again, KOBE is not physically stong and quick enough to penetrate through such physical detainments. If you clearly take a look at the CELTICS 08 and PISTONS 04, KOBE was not able to penetrate through tough defenses, thus forcing him to take long range jumpshots, and coherently shoots about 40% for both finals.
I LOVE watching the other guys play, I just HATE how these homers try to sell their tickets using the legacy of the legends, while trying to discredit them. I NEVER look for a dispute, but these homers will send me these derogatory private messages with a video link, claiming that if I show up, they'll quote: "educate" my "dumb ass" LOL!!
So when I go to the link & see them "callin' me out", I respond, only to then listen to them "claim" that I'm "hating", when they ASKED me to show up LOL!!
