Saw this a while back but never shared it because of the aforementioned video quality but if you are a fan of one or both players this is for you.

You seems like a good poster bro. It sucks that Smoke117 just finished his bottle of Thunder Bird when he insulted you in the Harden Thread. He's a raging alcoholic.

I’ve often tried to explain to people how shooting changed. The best shooters in the world 30 years ago often played like this:

Guys we talk about as shooters from those days were more often straight up scorers and not the specialists we have so many of now. All of them were better than their raw scoring suggests when you compare them to many guys now. Whatever my opinion of Reggie vs whoever he was obviously a better total scorer than the points he scored a game.

Yeah they are more fundamentally sound on the way they play back then, valuing their shots more and taking what the defense gives as opposed to the shooters of today wherein most of them let it fly with just little daylight.

Petro has almost been forgotten but he was a Euro legend. Tragic ending to his story.

Petrovic has a case as the best European ever. Such a shame.

Dirk Nowitzi begs to disagrees.
