15 might be the perfect number, 20 max.
Talking like he built! That'll gettem kilt! Mossberg lift em like Dominique WILK!
League so weak now mfs used to get slapped in the face no foul π
Wait til bro come across one of the 7ft giants that move faster and is more coordinated than him.
Easily though π―
Shouldβve made Dexter only need one garbage bag for him
Letβs relax Mr. Wilkins. He obviously could play today but I he whole βhand checkβ era argument is so dumb
mandatory mental health evaluation after 45 ts too crazyπππ
I donβt think they understand how bad hand checking is that means your not good at shuffling your feet an literally had to hold the player this generation is too skilled to be trying to keep you hands on them mfs a shake you out your shoes
Bro where the fuck dc youngfly come from why he interviewing DWπ
Would love to see those swirly twirly layups on wemby
Nique I right, that was an ABSURD urstion to ask someone of Nique caliber!
Players are far more advanced and far better now than back then these uncs are blinded by nostalgiaπ
Barbecue chicken ππ
Talk yo shit Nique. He was going band for band with Mike and Larry. Put some respect on OG
Itβs not the same DW
What the f is the handshake era?
People still hand checking today old man π
Frr
Still a shame not being top 50. He was absolutely top 20
People forget he led the league in scoring 1 season with a scoring champion
Old niggas think the skill level just stagnant, all these niggas would've been in the g league in todays game lmao
He's delusional. Defense was different back then. Way SOOO much spacing! Plus, He can't even shoot the ball, so they will smother him in the paint, EASILY.
15 pts for sure but averaging 20+prolly not
Dominique could still be an allstar but he glazing himself here
Dominique is the man but heβd be riding pine. 0 ppg!
If you people need help of how good dom would be in this era watch the video again and it shows itself. Zion. Zion literally plays and had prime Dom's athleticism and averaged 26 while only dunked and used power layups.
People forget you can use some modern player and make some level of educated guess of how an older player would play. Modern basketball isn't any better than the old era and vice versa. Just different but great player would be great in ANY ERA.
Cap, the cats averaging less then Kobe in this new era
Song?
He was leading the league in FGA in years when Michael Jordan was playing. 30 on 24 shots 9 free throws wasn't great even then. Below league average efficiency for his career. Zone would've hurt quite a few of these guys. Might've been forced to up the assists.
