Oh my god, Like he was impossible to guard. 79 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 2: He had the high release, he had the little keen 80 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: shake face up, trade ball like he was a motherfucker. 81 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 2: And he was nasty. 82 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was nasty.

You know, for sure. 92 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: Perfect playing at the five right now. 93 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: I'll be over shoo that three. You know, that's what 94 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: he did. And it's so crazy. 95 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: Back then, they used to write stories about him shooting 96 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 3: so many threes, and now you look at today's games, 97 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 3: are the doing shoot threes. 98 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 4: So it's like, see, you would have been perfect for 99 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 4: today's game. I mean the toughest thing for me to guard. 100 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 4: And I just remember this like like it was yesterday, 101 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 4: because it was like a nightment of guard. Was Rip 102 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 4: coming off a pin down. You got a hedge on 103 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 4: the pin down for Rip because you know he gonna 104 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 4: curl and shoot that mir range. And then when you 105 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 4: look for your bigs, he done fled back to the three. 106 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: What the hell is he doing over there? Yeah, like 107 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 4: you said, it's a high release, you ain't. You ain't 108 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: contesting that it's missing. Make even on his turnaround jumpers 109 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 4: and his shots, it's missing. Make with your high relief, 110 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 4: you ain't got so ahead of the game. He was 111 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 4: another underrated aheaded the game and a real one. 112 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: Hey, you talked about the difference now because obviously we've 113 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 2: seen the devolution of it, like bringing in the post 114 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: doing that stuff. Difference in two thousand and one. When 115 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: you get into now fast forward to two tal twenty five, 116 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 2: everyone talks about shooting threes. Give me your take on 117 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: where the game is and where it's going and where 118 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: it was when we played. 119 00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: The difference, the. 120 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: Difference of the game me, I think you know that, 121 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 3: like you said, they don't they took the inside out. 122 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: Some teams use it, you know what I mean. 123 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,559 Speaker 3: But for me, it's the person that everybody want to play, 124 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 3: Like you know, Steph Curry like to go to State 125 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: Wars and you got to have a personnel of If 126 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 3: you ain't got the personnel to play that type of way, 127 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: then you know you can't play the way play to 128 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: your personal And I think sometimes with these analytics and 129 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: you know, the team's not taking layups, you know that's 130 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 3: that's how you get going seeing a layup fall one 131 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 3: or two layups, you know what I'm saying. Or mid 132 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 3: range so taking it, everybody shooting threes. The game has changed. 133 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 3: But I think, you know, I like where the game 134 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 3: at overall because the skill wise, you got guys like 135 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: win being you know, these guys seven feet throwing it 136 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 3: between guys legs and shooting three. So the skill wise, 137 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: I like words hut, I love. 138 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 4: Worshet, I love the skill set. I just wish it'd 139 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,679 Speaker 4: be more of a focus on defense. 140 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: Still. I'm a defensive guy. 141 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 4: Guard your yard. 142 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: I'm tired. 143 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 4: They be in the one sixty to one sixty five 144 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 4: in the third quarter. 145 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 2: I'm cool see that no more. 146 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to see that no more.
