There are probably at least 20 teams that would fire their coach if Stevens became available.

They took the Bulls to 7-games which is no easy task. The 1998 Jazz had a 10-day rest and they couldn't even do that in the finals. |

Also I don't think Stevens will get fired and he shouldn't but getting blown out at home in the EC Finals by an average of 30 pts IMO is more than lack of talent issue. I realize they were never going to win the series but the lack of competing especially at home is concerning. Anyway they got the #1 pick and if they take Fultz hopefully they can get another superstar to come over and take that next step. |

Such as hard thing to go stat for stat on. Totally different game and rules favoring the offense now, much like the Brady/Montana debate.
Anthony Mason playing Lebron with 90s style rules would have given him fits. Last edited by BigCatDaddy; 05-28-2017 at 09:27 AM.. |

The 90s were rough and tumble, but defenses now are more complex.

Kevin Durant would get destroyed if he went to the hole in the 90s and so would Curry. Because of how little it takes to foul they can get away with it and not getting hurt in today's NBA. Back in the 90s it'd be totally different. I'm not sure how it would affect LeBron because LeBron is fairly well-built but I am guessing players would handcheck him a hell of a lot more than they do now because as well-built as LeBron is he is still is somewhat skinny. Let's be honest here Anthony Mason is a lot stronger than LeBron is. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 05-28-2017 at 02:06 PM.. |

Yeah... I appreciate great schematics but in no way does that equal out to hand checking, shots to chest trying to cross the lane, and dealing with the "no layup" philosophy. Especially over thr course of a season and difficult series. Lebron is a big guy, but doesn't really like contact.

It's clear that there are some here who understand the fundamental difference in how the game, and defense, was played then vs. now and some who do not. And why that makes comparison between the two eras impossible.

How come the scoring per game was higher in the 80s and 90s if the defense was so good?

Is it your position that the defense wasn't much more aggressive and physical in that era and the rules aren't much more geared toward offense in this era?
