    Default So If Wardell Revolutionized The Modern NBA Then...

    Why do people constantly bitch about the move towards 3 point shooting and yet don't bash him because of it?

    It’s not Dingo’s fault this is a copy cat league. Blame the imitators.

    Yea i think they should blame him. Especially when he's not hitting his long range shots, which makes him a liability in defense.

    what;s funny is what occured once everyone caught up. once the rest of the league began replicating this playstyle, they not only caught up, they were better than him. the only reason he ever won in the first place was bc of catastrophic injuries to the cavs, and then because of KD. harden and cp3 took that stacked KD team to 7 games LOL. remove KD from the equation and the warriors don't make the finals.

    and if we really want to be technical, the suns/dantoni were the first team to showcase this offense during the 21st century. curry just got lucky by beating a catastrophically injured cavs team and doing so while a bunch of math nerds started to get taken seriously by front offices.

    but anyways, the marvelous engineer of the 3pt era is leading the warriors to a 9th seed in his prime, during peak 3pt era.

    another excellent point, curry needed very stringent conditions to excel. like a shit software program that can only run under very precise conditions.

    in wardell's case, he needed an all time great shooter/defender that is klay thompson and also required draymond to excel. without those 2, he can't even make the playoffs.

    No klay, no slay.

    It's a never ending story, indeed.

    Well he didn't revolutionize the game morey and the rockets did. Steph and the warriors just mastered it better.

    And at the time when morey joined the rockets and came out with the whole analyticals on why more threes are better plenty of experts in the media bashed him for it.

    Yeah its a different day. Can't blame bigs for shooting on the perimeter more. In the paint defenders can still be physical with them. Can't nobody come close to them on the perimeter.

    In the 80's and 90's people complained about the move towards dunking and ball hogging and no one bashed Jordan for it.

    In general, the public was fine if it's Jordan or Steph doing those spectacular things. It's the posers that they have a problem with.

    Highwey is a beaner? Is he white/native american mix like Mexicans? Must be a self hating type who loves his white side too much.

    Anyways f*ck that beaner wetback sp*c. Outside Graves Vasquez, I can't recall a single American born sp*c in NBA. Worthless lazy wetbacks. Go back to Mexico.
