Today’s NBA Players Couldn’t Make It 20 Years Ago 😳👀

  1. Scottie Pippen was the toughest player ever I'm not talking about a dirty player the Knicks and the pistons used to try to beat the greatest small forward ever Scottie Pippen up to stop him and intimidate him but it didn't work

  2. i think jimmy butler, luka, giannis, draymond, prime klay, ja morant and anthony edwards would hang back in the day , they all got some dog in em and athletic attributes to help them

  3. Everyone all at once… CAAAAAAAAP!!! Love you KG but that’s BS. Every new player would thrive in the generations before. FACTZ

  4. They blaming the players for the nba protecting their investments it’s a huge business now, if stars get hurt fans don’t go to games

  5. The difference is after all that unnecessary dribbling if u miss a shot or get the ball stolen u on the bench where today coaches allow all that because the other team isn't capitalizing their players doing the same thing right back. So what u got is bad basketball, low IQ basketball.

  6. They didn't dribble and cross over 20 years ago, like they do now. There is no physical opportunity at the rim, if your opponent is on his back.

  7. If you think ant kd curry lebron draymond jimmy butler Gianni’s booker couldn’t be back in those days you outta your mind cause they dudes was ready for the smoke any day of the week and would dish that mf right back viciously Kobe knew who was soft and who wasn’t curry ain’t soft stone cold killer and I’ve heard many stories where they said Steph ain’t soft either

  8. Went all the kryie talk in confuse ppl comparing him to AI. How is there a comparison one for like 4 scoring titles scored 40 like 4-5 games straights and lead his team to a nba finals basically by himself. Kyrie is just a sometimes player, never could lead a team, don't always show up, is a good two option sometime but not against Boston I guess. Oh yeah they played against two types of defense.1 played in an era where they had D and the other one didn't.

  9. I would argue the exact opposite, most of the guys 20 years ago wouldn’t make it in today’s league.

  10. They gonna say this 20 years from now lmao stfu kg ! You are the same as every other hooper ! Quit living off that 1 ring you got and tell it how it really is ! 🤪😈

  11. I feel like there are a handful who could play in that era just like there are only a handful who can transfer from that era

  12. You can't be on your Phone because you didn’t have phones you could be on.
    Yet, there are videos of Shaq and Allen Iverson on the Phone in the Locker Room.

    6ft5 Drag Queen, Dennis Rodman, playing 👗 dress up and finding time to dye his hair every game still led the league in Rebounds 5 consecutive years.

    6ft Allen Iverson, missing practice, coming to matches on cornrows and dressed in baggy clothes like a music star led the league in Scoring 4x.

    But an Era with advanced skill, and Nutrition, and weight training won't be able to play in that era? 😂😂😂

    How many Finals did KG played in when the League became Soft?

  13. Getting rid of hand-checking after LeBron's rookie season changed everything about how the game is played in the NBA. LeBron didn't even like the physicality he faced his first season and it wasn't even that intense compared to 90s and before.

  14. He’s talking about ANT MAN!!! LEBRON old @ss was in the league 20 years ago🤣🤣🤣

  15. I am so annoyed by the older generations gatekeeping their time. it was different, but that doesn't mean they couldn't adapt. I am sure good people could adapt. And today's speed and movement and range would be a big problem for many from them too. but that side is always omitted.

  16. CAP!!!! They are playing in the rules of today. If the rules were the same today that they were then players of today would still be balling

  17. I know its true what he says but bird said these are the ones who will keep the game going so dont hate congratulate
