NBA players are asked which skill they would take from another player More than half of the players said Steph’s shooting.
tbf a lot of players having Steph’s shooting instantly become like undisputed top 2 players at their position unless their strength is already in shooting. Like imagine if a player like Cason Wallace had Steph’s shooting
Giannis with Steph shooting would be like a folklore creature
A monster. Unholy and out for blood
He would be the undisputed goat. I’m talking like winning 7 mvps straight. He’s already a top15ish player ever and at worst t3 at his position, and that’s as a sub par shooter
Yeah exactly if Lebron took Stephs shooting he would be like the Wilt of our time lol 50ppg there would just be no way to stop him in his prime.
Also tbf Steph also does have like top 10-20 handles ever in the NBA he puts people on skates also too just not as much as Kyrie.
you’re high
Elite Stupid Take
No way. Kyrie is probably greatest handles in history
Imagine either Thompson brother with that shooting. They’d be a menace.
There is a third thompson that has borderline steph’s shooting though
It sort of depends on how you operationalize it.
You can’t actually make it so that you’re also giving them Steph’s handles, off-ball movement, conditioning, etc, which all play into his shooting prowess. For example, if you give Rudy Gobert Steph’s shooting, he’d still have to be in Rudy Gobert’s body and have Rudy Gobert’s non-shooting deficiencies.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a major improvement for anybody. And the correct answer for most of the league. But I think it’s just limited by the other things that make Steph great.
rudy gobert with steph’s shooting and nothing else still becomes way better. like a stretch big is always going to be in demand, let alone a dpoy. just being able to park him in the corner even as a 40% shooter makes him way more usedul on offense
Rudy Gobert with Steph shooting would be the GOAT
Not even corner. Like park him at the top of the key and just run pick and pops. If he had steph’s shooting, he’ll be the greatest stretch big in NBA history.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a major improvement for anybody
Further questions though; does having Steph’s shooting mean you also get Steph’s release? Like his exact jumper? Or do you keep your existing release and just get his accuracy?
Also offenses with Gobert generally want to use him as a screener because he’s one of the best screeners in the league. There’s a reason his offensive impact numbers are actually generally positive despite his perception. So parking him in the corner would definitely provide value but then you’d lose screening value as well. He’d get better, like I said! He’s not getting as much better as some people would imagine when they think “Rudy Gobert + Steph shooting!”
Yeah but if those Gobert screens now come with the threat of a deadly pick-n-pop, it opens up his roll more AND makes it easier for the pnr partner to score.
To be fair if you could actually run a pick and pop with Gobert he would be terrifying
I definitely think that their coaching staff would be able to come up with something to prioritise maximising his new found 3pt ability in conjunction with not compromising his screen setting too much
Yeah it would make his screens sooo much more dangerous cuz he’d be the best shooter ever on a pick n pop.
Pick N’ Unroll. Gobert for the three.
Yeah Steph has a lot of skills beyond shooting, that’s what makes him so OP. That’s basically the difference between him and Klay, unless “shooting” also counts his moves to get open.
Steph is also a better shooter than Klay, straight up, conditioning and handle aside
For sure but a lot of these guys already have a deep bag. Adding a consistent 40% 3pt shot would make them MVP easily.
Luka, Giannis, Jokic and SGA to name some.
Yeah once you have steph level shooting eventually teams are gonna adjust their defenses at which point you would need his elite off ball movement to actually get open for shots. And to keep up his elite off ball movement you need his elite conditioning.
but steph needs that because he is small, if you close out quick on a player like giannis he is just putting the ball on the floor lol
Right, Steph is like a top 10ish player all time (just for the sake of argument), but give a pretty good player his shooting and all of sudden you make then a top 20-30 player minimum. It’s like giving someone a million dollars and a Harvard degree, sure some will do better with it than others but it’ll set up pretty much anyone.
Arguably if you give someone who is bigger and more athletic Steph’s shooting they might even be better than Steph overall.
Similarly, how good is Jokic passing without Jokic IQ
I agree. I think people and even NBA player’s minimize how great Curry’s handles are which allow him to get a myriad of shots. Honestly that’s really what separates him from all the great shooters.
Yeah but like. Kawhi would still be an all world defender and a god tier midrange operator. And now he cam shoot 40% from 3. For Giannis, you’d finally have to actually guard him at the 3pt line and he’s still big enough and strong enough to take advantage of the spacing. It would make every star player absolutely insane. Can you imagine the passing lanes that would open up for Jokic if he could start pulling up from 35 feet??
Sure, but on the other hand, they have things that Steph doesn’t have. Would you take prime Steph or prime Gobert with Steph’s shooting? Even though the shooting is at a discount, you combine that level of shooting with that defense? Lord oh lord, that is a monster.
I mean yeah 3>2 and offball movement 3 point shooting is a nightmare for defenses to cover, leads to a lot of breakdowns elsewhere
Ya, any good player with Steph’s shooting is probably an MVP candidate
Thompson twin with Steph shooting would be the GOAT
You can say that about most NBA players who are in the NBA not because of their shooting. Like Gobert and Giannis.
KD kind of already has that, so it’s no surprise he chose Kyrie’s handle. You can tell he wishes he had that too, because he often dribbles a little too much and loses the handle. It’s frustrating.
KD is great at basically everything but there’s a big gap between his shooting and Steph’s shooting no matter how elite KD’s shooting is. If KD had Steph’a shooting he would easily be the GOAT
That was basically Klay Thompson in his prime, great defender while being a GOAT shooter
Kawhi Leonard’s off court contract negotiation skills
Don’t you mean Uncle Dennis?
Nah. Uncle Dennis actually had to do all that. Kawhi got all the benefits while never having to speak a word or lift a finger. That’s the real skill.
Kawhi tree planting ability & laugh
Hilarious.
🤣🤣
would instantly be a fan of whatever player if he said that
That’s easy, just appear and laugh more on camera or have team bring soil, pot, and seeds on plane to film him
I just spit out my Gatorade
“Not sponsored by Gatorade”
And ability to face no consequences for his actions
This shit made me hella laugh.
Wonder what Curry would want.
Prolly someone’s height. Could you imagine a 6’8 Steph?
Are people trolling me in the replies? Buddy Hield and Patrick Williams are not tall Curry what the fuck are we doing here.
It was a joke I didn’t get okay I get it now.
The big like Klay, shoots like Curry, is a quote from the Kings owner, former part-owner of the Warriors, Vivek Ranadive. He said that about Nik Stauskus, then people meme’d it to Buddy because they traded for him. Vivek was obsessed with emulating the Warriors and to match their success
I feel like curry with the same build as LeBron would be the undisputed GOAT.
CP3 with LeBron’s build still clears IMO
I don’t see how. You really need that 3 point shooting in this league. CP3 with Lebron’s build is basically just Lebron with a better midrange, no?
That’s just LeBron
Yes cause then he’d have elite defense too, instead of being a liability
KDs size
To be clear, do you mean KD’s actual size or him with a little meat on his bones? KD is so great because he has finesse and agility, etc that others do not at his size. He doesn’t play as lanky as you’d expect. His shooting is also pretty fucking pure. So the difference between him and Steph shooting wise would just be…more 3s? Even better handles? I’m legitimately asking BTW. I’m not trying to be cunty
Idk I didn’t think it through too much. Just figured Steph as tall as KD would be something
I’m gonna need some size.
Patrick Williams exists bro
buddy is tall like klay shoot like curry
Buddy Hield is from an old quote about him.
Okay it was a joke I wasn’t getting I was legit losing my fucking mind for a second there.
You just described Paul Zipser.
I think the most similar to a “6’8 Curry” is Peja Stojakovic or Glenn Rice
Peja had no handle and was not a shot creator. Peja was basically an oversized clone of Klay on offense.
KD might be the closest thing to giant Steph. All-time shot creator on ball, deadly off the ball, elite condiitoning
How about Larry Bird or KD
Buddy Hield exists but ok
Morph Curry with Bill Russell and gg
Not a skill
Ja’s dunking would be the most fun answer. Imagine Steph after making b2b 3s curling around a screen, making 2 quick dribbles to the front of the rim, and elevating for one of those young Ja dunks? Electric.
Unfortunately Steph still has Steph’s ankles
Okay I love this answer
Wemby Size.
It’s not proportional he’s got 4 inches like the rest of us
lmao
Steph wouldn’t be able to be Steph at wembys size. His dribbling is too good. Add another foot and a half to him and all the dribbling will make it easier on the defense to steal the ball. It’s why Wemby brings the ball down low because he wants to play like a guard. He can’t do that normally when the ball travels 4’ when he dribbles.
Height or penis?
Lebrons durability
Ausar’s defense like Hali’s pick would be the correct answer
Yeah hali playing the twins lvl defense would be insane.
SGA’s whistle
A normal whistle would suffice
Probably donovan mitchell swim move layup 😂
Shaq’s power/size/strength. Needs to be tripled team anywhere he goes.
Post play, maybe? Like Jalen Brunson’s moves. Or maybe the explosiveness of prime Russ, which would be an insane combo with Steph’s shooting and off-ball movement.
Defense
He’d say Steph’s shooting and drop the mic
Muggsy bogues defense idk
LeBron’s Longevity.
I think you mean his PED dealer.
Give me LeBron money
Give me Jordan money
Granted, you are now deep in gambling debt
Give me Drake penis
Monkeys paw could interpret that one very uncomfortably
How so…
Granted, it’s now inside your mouth
Embiid with Mikal bridges health would be top 10 oat
Easily too. Genuinely a shot at breaking the top 5 depending on total team success.
Easily. Then also give him the cardio conditioning of say, Westbrook or Curry - which frankly is usually a byproduct of health to begin with - and he’s the undisputed GOAT
Hali’s pick of the Thompson twins defense was a fantastic answer. Imagine him with Ausar’s defense.
Also interesting that JB and Harper said Steph’s off-ball movement and conditioning respectively rather than the shooting answer. Should probably just take the shooting lol but good answers nonetheless
A tall guard (Luka/Hali etc) with Ausar’s defense is the best player in the league.
Shit, a tall guard with half of Ausar’s defense is currently the best (arguably) player in the league
Hali with Ausar defense is chris paul on HGH.
Hali final run is honestly already better than anything Chris Paul has ever done.
Google “Chris Paul”. You don’t watch the Suns, but he was actually playing at that level, as an old guy. If it weren’t for him having COVID early, he would have clearly had better numbers than Haliburton’s run. In his first playoff appearance with the Hornets, he was playing at a much higher level than Haliburton.
Eh, his run gets sort of overrated because of the clutch shots. Which were awesome but it wasn’t some incredible individual playoff run. Siakam was the best player on the team for a great chunk of it, actually
I think 2nd all time in assists and steals is better than a single finals run, but you do you
The suns team that made the final first option was without a doubt chris paul
The first option was Booker. What games were we watching??
Some of these guys who said that are GREAT shooters. It just drives home the fact that Steph is the best to ever do it in terms of shooting a basketball.
It really speaks to his utter uniqueness. He is indisputably the greatest at a skill set that is absolutely central to the game.
Think about the major sports and what’s even remotely comparable. Greatest baseball pitcher or hitter of all time? Inherently debatable especially since people will argue eras and steroids and all that.
Football…either version, I don’t know even know what the equivalent would be because there’s no individual skill that’s comparable in terms of “something a single person can do on their own that’s essential to the essence of the game.”
It’s also not about greatest player or player-at-their-position either. That’s not what Steph’s greatness is about though, sure, you can argue if he’s the GOAT PG but that’s an actual debate.
His shooting prowess is not up for debate. It is as closest thing to a living miracle in the sporting world we will ever see.
It’s possible a better shooter will eventually emerge. But until then, he’s 1 of 1.
For football I feel the equivalent would be Rodgers’ passing ability but there’s no way to make it analogous because that’s only a single position that could utilize it and most pro players can’t even begin to comprehend that position. Baseball is a little easier and it would obviously be batting as it’s the most universal task, but again as you pointed out there wouldn’t be a clear consensus. Basketball is definitely unique in that every single player would love to have and benefit from Steph’s ability to shoot, and also he’s the clear and reasonable answer.
Luka and shai are crazy good shooters and they STILL said steph curry’s shooting. That’s how otherworldly his shooting is.
I mean. Neither Luka nor Shai are good shooters in the way Steph is a good shooter. Like not even in the same convo. So I don’t find this remarkable. Shai probably isn’t even in the top 10 snipers in the league so I’m not sure why you mention him. His mid range game is his best no?
Luka is pretty average shooter though.
He wouldn’t be shooting so many damn stepback 3s if he was only an average shooter
Oubre saying IQ had me giggling
But it’s a good answer. Oubre’s skill set is actually solid, but his BBIQ has always been lacking.
He’d be a pretty dang good player with the smarts to guide what he’s doing.
I misread this and thought you were hating on Oubre for not making a good smoked brisket or pork ribs
A self aware man 🤣🤣
ironic too
I feel like current Ja is only marginally more athletic than Maxey lol elite passing would do way more for his game than a couple more inches in his vert
I kinda love that though - leaning into his own skillset, buffing the killer drive to make it even more explosive, rather than saying “me + being the best shooter ever.”
Not to say it’s better than the other answers, it’s almost certainly worse, but i like the implied self-confidence.
Yeah was surprised that Maxey sees a major difference in athleticism b/w him and Ja.
Eh, I get it. Maxey’s main flaw is that he can struggle to convert his theoretically-insane downhill pressure (fast, elite shooter to pull guys out) into actual points because he’s a small guard without god-tier bounce. Give him Ja’s vertical athleticism and all of a sudden he requires so much attention to contain.
Edit: Checked the numbers, there’s about a 7 inch difference in their vert. That doesn’t include the fact that Ja can explode upwards insanely quickly, so that’s a major boost to Maxey’s ability to pressure the rim.
That’s all true but Maxey is an incredible finisher with a million different layups in his bag
He’s a skilled finisher, not a great finisher. Super crafty, uses space well, has elite touch, but he’s just too small and not bouncy enough to actually be elite there. It’s unfortunately just the limitations of his height.
Thompson brothers having Steph shooting would be electric
Ausar wasn’t lying lol. He said it would make him unstoppable, and it would haha
Both of twins still need handles to be unstoppable. Amen’s is quite a bit better than Ausar’s, but not really good enough. The twins are still incredibly raw at everything except defence.
If you are a defensive demon with Steph’s shooting, then you will ascend to basketball godhood.
The question then becomes, can you run around like Steph on offense, then still be a demon on defense?
I guess as long as it means they also get Steph’s conditioning and offball movement skills
They definitely have close to his conditioning. And they have good bbiq. They just have absolutely 0 shooting touch.
Well yeah, Steph’s shooting has to be the best single “skill” in the history of the game.
Gotta be that along with Rodman’s rebounding
Easily
For us that witnessed him, it will always be Kareem’s skyhook.
Hard to call it the best skill when half of the league wouldn’t even be able to utilize it.
Isn’t that what makes it a rare and coveted skill?
No. It’s value as a skill is limited if you need to be 7 feet tall to utilize it
Well Steph isn’t the greatest shooter because of any of his physical attributes, height isn’t a skill
I think his argument is that you need to be extremely tall to have an unstoppable sky hook, so it wouldn’t be that coveted for half the league.
I witnessed Kareem and I’d still choose Steph’s shooting lmao.
Imagine short guys doing a Skyhook 😂
Lmao at Ant’s “Donovan Mitchell’s” nothing in particular
It looked like he was trying to mimic his windmill gather move
It really a tuff move fr
Donovan’s still my favorite player in the league and he makes every movement look so fucking cool
I honestly think it’s his long ass arms and otherwise close-to-average height proportions.
GG Jackson added this to his bag last season and I get all giddy every time he tries it now, no where near as consistent as Spida tho
He literally mimicked Mitchell’s favorite gather though
Apparently you don’t know why he’s called Spida lol
Can’t learn that from box score watching
Second most on-brand answer after Jaylen Brown overthinking it
I wonder how much of Steph’s shooting is because of his elite AF conditioning.
For example nothing
The Donovan special
Kyky with Steph shooting
Ant is a pretty complete player. I don’t think you can add much to him
Passing? Really unlocks his offense more.
He refuses to compliment anyone who’s a real competitor to him
Weird take, Ant has always given the opposing stars their flowers
Steph is obviously best for practicality, but if I’m just having fun and it’s an all time question, give me prime Derrick Rose’s athleticism
Granted, but you also get the knees that follows afterward.
But they would know to learn to land properly, to play less minutes and do whatever is needed to prolong the health of those knees.
RIP your knees in 3.. 2.. 1..
Derrick rose was sweet. But you’d pick his over like LeBron’s? lol….
I can see it, it’s just a different type of athleticism.
Like LeBron had powerful athleticism with bounce but DRose was like a fucking Gazelle in his peak. He was just gliding out there and just teleporting around people.
My personal choice is Russ’s athleticism for pure aesthetics. I want to know what it’s like to run that fast and jump that high and be that powerful in a “smaller” frame compared to someone like LeBron. Russ was just a freak of freak of athletes.
Idk man, 20 year old was insane with speed, power and lateral quickness. He wasn’t always the 260-280lb beast that he’s been for as long as most people on this sub are able to remember.
Prime DRose basically told gravity and inertia “no”.
That dunk on, who was it Dragic, will probably be burdened to my memory forever.
Bro waited in the air to make sure the camera’s got the right angle for the poster before slamming it down on him.
Rose was so explosive too. Dude could get off the ground in a heartbeat.
Why the hell isn’t anyone bringing up Michael Jordan? By far the most athletic perimeter player in terms of speed, explosiveness, changing direction, vertical etc.
Different generation but still a very good answer, obviously.
A lot of people online just grew up watching the people being mentioned and not as many grew up watching Jordan, so he doesn’t come up first in a lot of people’s minds.
This question doesn’t has a singular right answer anyway, it’s just people having fun reminiscing about some of their favorite players.
Yeah for some reason when people think of MJ, they don’t seem to realize that he’s literally one of the most athletic NBA players ever with some big ass hands
Imagine Anthony Davis with derrick Rose’s knees, Steph Curry’s ankles, and zingus’s immune system.
Man I just wanna fly like LeBron in 09
Prime Rose’s explosiveness/athleticism PLUS LeBron’s cyborg body.
I can only imagine…
If we are doing athleticism, I’d rather have prime Russ.
I think AI is still the right answer
that would probably be Steph’s answer lol
In a game based around putting a ball in a hoop, players choose the ability to put the ball in the hoop.
I am shocked.
Name a more iconic duo than redditors and snarky comments
How else can we show everyone how intelligent we are?
Can you imagine if Wemby had Steph’s movement though (the conditioning/intelligence/endurance of it)?
Brother would score like 70 every night.
I think that would improve his even game more than adding 10% to his shooting splits. Because his splits are going to skyrocket anyway when he’s 7’6” and now wide the fuck open.
It would be weird as fuck to watch. Wemby moving around the court like that would be proper horror movie, kill it with fire shit.
In tomorow news, grass is green.
Not my grass. Yellow as hell
Yeah I get you. It was crazy summer lol
What you mean was? Your summer is done??
Is there anyone who is a good enough shooter (other than Steph) to take something else? Like Dame?
Haliburton taking defense instead of Steph’s shooting makes sense in that regard. I mean, he is certainly not Curry at all, but his shooting is already needed to be respected a lot from every range, so why not add something else that will make more difference? I can see a number of players who can follow the same logic and go for handling, passing or defensive abilities although most is not Dame.
Ant and SGA would probably benefit more from elite passing.
Hali saying defense was correct, it would help him more than Steph’s shooting. If “defense” is allowed (and includes the length and athleticism that a lot of guys don’t have) then it’s probably the correct answer for a lot of guys.
Jokic’s passing would probably be a good answer for a lot of guys too. SGA said Steph’s shooting, but he already draws doubles above the arc sometimes, adding Steph’s shooting would just make that a permanent thing. He’d probably be better off with insane passing to punish the doubles. Same for Ant.
I agree. His shooting is already more than good enough. Pre 2024 I would have agreed but honestly his 3 is more than good enough. You can’t leave him open anymore.
Yeah a lot of players would benefit greatly if they had Jokic/Lebron’s passing imo. Most people just default to shooting for some reason. Maybe cause they think it’s cooler to be able to shoot like steph lol
Durant took Kyrie’s handles, which makes sense to me. He’s already an incredible shooter.
Durant with Jokic or Lebron level passing is possibly the GOAT.
Someone should have recommended he choose Steph’s leadership, just to get him riled up, though
I agree. Sure he could have better handles but passing is much more important. If he is even like 80% of them as a passer he doesn’t get so easily trapped last playoffs against us
The question is not “are they close enough to stephs shooting?” but rather if their shooting is good enough, so that they would profit more by filling another skill deficiency instead of improving their shooting. I think there are quiet a few players that have larger problems than their shooting ability compared to stephs. Hali choosing defense and KD choosing handles are pretty good choices helping them even more then a “slight” upgrade of their shooting. In my eyes Jokic would improve significantly more by adding Gobert defense than by adding elite shooting. His shooting is pretty good already, you have to respect his 3, his middle distance shooting is great and he can score easily in the post while being one of the best passers/playmakers in the game. He is capable of producing a elite team offense pretty much by himself. But building a contender around him is not easy, because he is not a great helpside defender/ rim protector. Now imagine him also being able to singlehandedly anker a top 10 defense. It would make roster construction so much easier, as you don’t have any obvious holes to fill. A team with embiid would profit significantly more by him adding Jokic’s playmaking than by being able to shoot one or two threes more a night, especially as embiid is extremly effective in the post. Any position he spends at the threepoint line is a position he doesn’t use his current strength. While being able to be a elite playmaker out of the post would give him further options to create offense in pretty much any position.
KD’s pick makes sense, He’s got the size and shooting, just needs crazy handles
It’s amazing how well these guys understand the game
That’s one part, but it’s also that steph’s shooting might be the number one standout skill of any player ever.
Steph isn’t the best or greatest player of all time, but his shooting ability is probably the single ability that’s furthest away from the #2 player.
Except JB, gotta be unique and different.
Any time a discussion like this comes the only right answer is Curry’s shooting. Imagine already being a superstar and suddenly having something so game breaking
Steph’s shooting ability can keep him in the league for another 10 years and he will forever be lethal at any open gym runs or rec centers😂😂😂
If slow, completely no athleticism Kyle Korver can play until he was 38 then anybody with quality deep shooting can play for as long as they want as long as they’re willing to accept the roles available to them.
Disappointed that nobody said Draymond’s nut kicking skills.
Is that more valuable than Lamelo’s gather steps?
Or Shai’s ability to take 5 steps without getting called for a travel.
Also, Wemby with Steven Adams’ strength is more or less Thanos with the gauntlet.
Wemby would be able to box 3 people out and then get the rebound.
How the hell did no one take Kris Dunn’s pivoting
Ersan Ilyasova’s charge taking ability is also being disrespected
Bro got the league bending knee like this? Also maxey makes himself worse lol
Saying Steph Curry’s movement and conditioning is crazy cause that’s the one thing here that’s achievable bro just do it
Steph curry tricked JB, he just running around doing nothing
You’re implying that there’s no generic component to it.
Curry def trounces Brown in the genetic lottery, he’s so dreamy
I wonder how Curry would do as a runner now
Imagine if the Thompson twins had Curry level shooting to go with their mega elite athleticism.
Jalen Brown outsmarting himself once again lmao
Curry tricked y’all, he just running around doing nothin
Even in fun stuff like this KD comes across as insufferable
His choice actually is the correct one for him.
He’s not wrong though he does have them all lol
He’s not a good playmaker.
Yeah, the thing that I noticed the most about KD’s game is that, unlike most top level players, he doesn’t really make the guys around him better.
Unconditionally not true dawg he had fucking Kendrick Perkins in the finals and was carrying the corpse of the Nets
He doesn’t playmake, but his individual gravity, defense and ability to make a shot from anywhere all make life way easier for everyone else. He plays with a lot of ass lineups sometimes (like some Rocket rotations) simply because that can trust him to score and the players can do everything else.
You don’t watch basketball if you think that
He’s really not. Like Book is okay and he’s a way better playmaker than KD. KD can work well in an offense system or solo but he’s not going to ever facilitate efficiently.
He doesn’t have Jokic’s passing
KD who can actually pass out of double team would already be enough for him to be top 10 all time, give him Jokic passing and that’s top 5
Notice Embiid said the same thing but wasn’t insufferable about it? 🤔
His choice makes sense, though.
Obviously, he’s not as good a shooter as Steph, no one is, but he’s good enough that having Steph’s shooting wouldn’t massively impact his game.
But with everything he can already do on offense, and at his size, having Kyrie’s handles would actually make him unstoppable.
It would allow him to be a #1 playmaking option since he could have the ball in his hand. He’s like a 2nd option playmaker during his prime but he’s more of a 3rd option playmaker.
He’s just confident in his ability, and that’s why he’s so good. Nothing wrong with that
you seem obsessed
Weird response.
Nobody want Lamelo Ball traveling?!
Kyle Lowry lower body
Pause…
Michael Jordan’s intangibles - You get that you’re almost unstoppable
Obviously! Steph’s shooting is the one skill in the league that’s completely irrepleacable.
Shooting is the one thing that we can say for absolutely certain is dominated by one man. You can also argue Kyrie handles but there are tons of other extremely shifty ball-handlers as well and handles aren’t as important as shooting. Handles also aren’t as important for some guys, like LeBron who can bully his way to the rim at will.
Half the players are too confident in their shooting.
would be funny if someone said shai’s whistle
Hali with Thompson defense would be filthy
KD is so annoying
Shaq’s strength would really help him. His shooting is already great enough.
Insufferable. I’m no psychiatrist, but he definitely seems to be a narcissist. Which would also explain most of his behavior.
For stating a fact?
Surprised no one said LeBrons longevity. Like just from a money making perspective being that healthy for that long is great.
KD with the most KD answer.
My underrated mention: Steven Adams offensive rebounding/boxing out would make a lot of bigs superstars
Steven Adams’ positioning.
Give that to any big and they instantly become a ton better on both ends of the floor.
Feel like there was an interview where Adams basically said he’s lasted as long as he has because they aren’t teaching big guys positioning anymore so he can basically move them however he wants when he’s rebounding.
