Re: Name players who will disappear once their athleticism disappears
Russell Westbrook- Not because he's a freak athlete, but because he really relies on it. WHen I see him play i see a guy who any point could suffer a Rose/Shumpert like ACL tear injury from lack of fundamentals and crazy explosion.
Blake griffin- The flavor of the last year, He works hard so I don't expect him to not be the franchise,but take his athletiscm away and I think you'd have Kris Humpries type PF. Still good though.
I feel like some players need to take notes from Rondo, and Parker. super quick and fast guys that pace their athletiscm...

Wade
Rose
Westbrook
Griffin
Unless they pull a Kobe and adjust, they just might.

Rose, Westbrook, Griffen, Wade, Ibaka (not that he is a great player now, but he is good).

Re: Name players who will disappear once their athleticism disappears
wade but i'm taking a different route than most people. he's an undersized SG. he can go into the post but he relies on his athleticism to do the rest. once that is gone, he's not going to match up well posting up bigger guards. thus, his game is going to have major problems adjusting and transitioning to the post like many guards do as they age. i also see his defense suffering a lot as he loses athleticism
griffin. still has plenty of time but his footwork needs major work

Re: Name players who will disappear once their athleticism disappears
Griffin will be done. Lebron relies on his athleticism alot but with his ball handling and distributing I see him backing off the scoring himself and still being a top all round contributor. Westbrook atm but I think by the time he's that old he'll have learnt how to compensate.

Its too late for wade to improve his footwork and fundamentals.
he's 30 years old...its gonna be hard to adjust your game at that age. He still plays like a 25 year old would play.
