Gilbert is gone Gilbert. Throwing circus slander at the dream for hosting 50k workouts - page 6

I’m not saying every Guard is a 6’6 powerhouse, but they’re not going to be BBQ chicken every single time they end up on someone bigger in todays game. Whether you feel that has to do with skillset or me saying it’s because they’re purposely drafting a certain body type & not a guy like an Aron Williams who physically was a beige moose. That’s just where the game has gone.

Bruh as a former coach, I'm telling you, for a properly trained big man that knows how to use his body, angles, footwork and positioning...EVERY guard or wing is BBQ chicken on the block. They may not scorer 100% of the time, but you're gonna get fouled and/or put the defense in a compromising position when they fear your work down there.

Teams are drafting what's available. None of these kids are training for legit big man work. Let Jokic sniff another chip and watch how fast some of these wirey rim winners start getting phased out for bigs that work the post and shoot 15-28 feet

This might have to go into hall of Fame of the dumbest posts in bxsc history my guy

Just say you never watched Hakeem play if you think that skill set doesnt translate to today's game

You wasting your time speaking logic to these goofs and bozos.

Yall think Greek gonna be able to power through n1ggas his entire career? He already been having random injuries lately! Hakeem teaches more than just the Dream shake. He teaches footwork in the post, soft touches around the basket, how to pass out of the double. Not even gonna talk about defense. All sh1t that Greek will need to prolong his career and help him take it up another level or else he will retire with that 1 lonely ring

So why TF did LeBron go workout with Hakeem after his disastrous performance in the finals against the Mavs? He couldn’t take advantage of little a$s JJ Barrera in the post because he had no moves. That was a glaring weakness of his and once he fixed that you saw him way more comfortable in the post which lead him to being even more unstoppable as a player.

I respect what you saying but we gotta understand that regardless of how you train it’s impossible to be the “perfect player”. As much as you might criticize what a player does in an important moment, they should ONLY be doing what they feel most comfortable with doing & have a track record of success at doing. Giannis is never going to be in a position with the game on the line trying to showcase a move he learned in September. He’s going to do what has earned him 2 MVP’s. And that’s entirely ok.

That was 2011.

It’s 2023 going on 2024.

You’re basically describing a gap in years almost the equivalent of Jordan coming into the league and winning his 6th ring and discussing it like it was “just yesterday” when LeBron worked with Hakeem.

So these dudes can spend 100k at the strip club and 500k on jewelry but cant spend 50k to work on their craft lol

What a fu#kin clown. This is why we about to have a 3rd place finish in the Olympics this summerv and why its only 1 American big man in the top 10 smh

What’s your opinion?

If you got logic on the situation, offer it.

No reason to be salty because you disagree with what I’m saying since you’ve slapped every post I’ve made in here like that changes the premise of me telling y’all that sh1t has changed and the past ain’t coming back.

And it made him better and a threat in the post. What point are you trying to make with that happening in 2011?

Because it worked for LeBron in 2011 doesn’t mean it’s going to work for insert player here in 2023-2024.

Do you understand how much time has passed?

And the changes that have taken place within that window?

That’s why I equated it to Master P earlier.

You had the cheat code back in the day, but if I can’t put that same cheat code into play today, all you doing is giving me a history lesson & blessing me with the wisdom to find my own “cheat code” except you gonna profit in the end for the “game”.

OMG It’s called fu#king fundamentals and footwork like WTF. That sh1t still works in bball like what are talking about? No logic with your points, no examples, nothing. The fu#k Master P gotta do with anything. I’m trippin B you obviously know the game. I’ll shut the fu#k because it’s a waste of time going back n forth. Enjoy your day brah

50,000 though? Is it only one workout?

Either way that's outrageous bro cmon.

My dude, if you cut on a random NBA game next month how much of this are you going to see in the post? That’s all I’ve been getting at for 7 pages now. There is no way any of y’all are actually watching the current product. And half of the people I’ve said this to in this thread openly say they think the NBA has become garbage.

I was actually talking about all of y’all irrational n1ggas that said having good footwork and post moves are in the past. I’m not salty. I slapped your posts because they didn’t make any good bball sense. fu#k the past brah that sh1t don’t bother me. Like I said before LeBron working on his post game made him a better player. That’s facts. But you keep talking about “that’s 2011” like that means something. You can’t even counter and say that it didn’t make him better and that he didn’t use that to his advantage after the fact. Maybe since I coached I look at the game different but y’all kill me with that in the past sh1t. That’s why the USA couldn’t even medal in the World Championships because they soft as butter and can’t/won’t take advantage of their size and athleticism.

you can be sure a bunch of dudes that talk in here don't watch let alone analyze the game in the manner you do. You see the game waaaaaaaaaayyy differently than the average avid espn watcher.

Tell him to start naming plays or actions without using google and it'll be crickets
