  1. yeah this generation is waaayayayyy harder than the one y’all got now. Even up to like 2014-15. The nuance and touch that goes into attack the defense. Now it’s just drive and kick swing and jack a 3

  2. It's still weird to me how neither of these stars were ever really surrounded by defensive role players when that was clearly the way to do it.

  3. It´s crazy to see how much space they had on the 3-pt line back then and still they passed that ball. The game has advanced so much over the last 10-15 years

  4. Nikola Jokic is considered a reluctant 3-point shooter and yet his 3-point volume is higher than Dirk's was, which shows the difference in eras. Dirk was never a reluctant shooter, but his shot profile was so different than it would be today.
