Ex players like #walt #kareem #billRussell saying Curry wont be great in their era,will be slowed down and put on his ass #OLDheads 70's 80's players pls stop acting like u guys were built like shaq 7-1 325...#billR was 6-10 220..#kareem 7-2 225 #YallbambiLegs yall was quick to put someone on they ass but couldnt do 20 str8 pushups haha...STOP hiding behind a era that was allowed to play caveman basketball..the less talented players played PRISON rules #archrivalsStyle...if we cant stop u,we beat u up!! BACK to curry shot...in the 70's and the caveman era80s everyone shot behind their heads BECUZ they were only allowed to dribble str8 up and down #HandOnTopofTheBall so they couldnt create much space off the dribble so the space was created during the shot..with the shot going behind the head it was hard to block(above the chest til behind the head'was the release).with the evolution of dribbling players were allowed to put they hands on the side of the ball creating the cross over, in and outs,step back etc so with players creating space off the dribbling the shot and release point was (below the chest til forehead release)with both shooting techniques u can tell when a player is about to shoot..CURRY is rare...pretty sure when he started shooting he wasnt strong enough to get the ball up there so he pushed it from his hip...this technique is why he gets his shot off with no space needed...his pickup point is the hip and his release point is the middle of his chest...#muchfaster..that means while dribbling he is basically shot READY..since ur not taught to defend a shot while a player is dribbling ur way behind his form defensively..SO 80's players fouling him wont stop or slow his shot down....(you CAN adapt to toughness,u cant adapt to talent) talent always finds away to be talented..80's yall should understand that...no matter how much u fouled and dry humped #MJ he still got to the rim.....RESPECT currys talent and give him a chance to be great and play the GAME like u guys did....time will tell but right now that shot wont be stopped...

All these Grandpas are basiaclly agreeing that they can't stop curry and that this era of players are much more talented. Their only method is to play like primates because they don't understand how to play defense.

Imagine giving Kahwi free reign to be physical and play like a primate from the 80s and 90s. They would call him god tier above Pippen.

" talent always finds away to be talented"
This says it all. If you're really great, you would be able to thrive in any era.

PS: Why the heck can't Arenas write like a normal person? It was hard to read.
