- Rare NBA Fight Doc about the physicality back in the day, compared to the style of play nowadays. No players involved were seriously injured.
i miss the NBA being played like 5 man Football during the 80's and 90's. Now all we have is Draymond Green's wandering feet hittting other player's testes when he goes up for a rebound. LOL.

1:18--ironically, Jim Cleamons, the Bulls assistant coach who had that confrontation with Patrick Ewing, himself had a scuffle with Celtic head coach Tom Heinsohn in the 1976 ECF when Cleamons played for the Cavaliers.

Any fan who says they are glad the NBA cleaned up the rough play is a damn liar. Rough play is what we grow up with on the playgrounds.
I'm glad they cleaned it up. The playground is not the same as playing with Refs. Playing with refs can allow one side to play dirty while the other has their hands tied behind their back until a full blown fight breaks out. You can manipulate this to favor one side.
@@JamesHardenoverKobeyeah so cool no wonder why you also think harden is better than Kobe

@@mkingl25rings out of it what makes Kobe better? And it's a simple question answer like an adult

When basketball was played by real men and not kids
referees were tougher than too, not like now where you get ejected for slamming a ball.
Can’t believe they charged Shaq $250 for that what a joke
Mike Gazanchyan - shows you that even back then, calls and penalties were ridiculous as well.
@@TheAmateurKritik they didn’t know how to ref Shaq. Him and Yao took beating’s, and were expected to just take it.
If you think what shaq did wasn't highly risky, you never played basketball. That is highly dangerous.
@@TheLionaaa bruh it’s two hundred and fifty dollars. In todays dollars it’s only about $600, which is a faaacking joke. You must not keep up with the fines of today.
Who gives af how much the fine was he's right moron it's hella dangerous to be pushed mid air like that gotta be some consequences
Maurice Lucas had a fight with Darryl Dawkins in the 1977 NBA Finals' Game2 (Lucas played for the Blazers and Dawkins for Phila)....BTW: in the lines on the 1982 Finals "LAL", referring to the Lakers it's not at all correct (the Clips were still in SD)
It's from a re-broadcast that takes place way after the move from SD to LA
You mean to tell me, there’s woofing and shoving, and no technicals called? Is this the NBA for real? Lol
Heck, back in the '70s quite often players would throw punches and there would be no technicals.
I been watching the nba since the late 70s there’s a difference between playing physical than purposely trying to hurt people some of those guys were butchers they couldn’t do nothing else
NBA today’s are a picnic…. Easy money….

I remember that Bulls assistant lol. Hated him, always talking shit. Like bro shut up, you got Jordan! 🤣🤣🤣
Mike fratelo once a best grizzlies coach
I personally never considered the fighting as a part of the game. IMO if you can't stop your opponent with legitimate defense, beating him up is just an admission you don't belong on the court with him. You can't win without cheating. And cheating is exactly what it is b/c those tactics are illegal and require no skill. The game stops when those things happen.
You've never played sports. That's not why they fight. It's not about losing, it's about standing up for yourself. Plain and simple. I've had to fight in games and I'm a choir boy lol.
EXACTLY, just because you not out there throwing blows doesn’t mean the game is weak or not a mans game. That’s not basketball at all
But of course Lebron is so big and strong that none of this contact would even phase him right all the 18-30 year olds who choose to comment here... lol
Players nowadays are small😢
Yes they are
Difference is everybody in the new nba can windmill and all these dudes could do was wrestle
When personal fouls were personal
Damn how did shaq afford those 250 bucks
Lol
He probably had to take out a high interest loan lol.
Bank of America consolidated his bill, 6 month payment plan with a 29% interest rate
Leflop..Aww my leg😩😩😂🤣🤣
Shaq was fined $250 lol!! That's like being fined #2 for regular people lol!!!
Real men not resorting to violence over a game these is little boys with no self control in reality
so today's players would be considered little girls fighting over who is the biggest prima donna?..
@@soramirez5473 that’s exactly how I see it tbh, with all the problems in the world as a man you literally have to be retarded to take a game that serious
@@jaysharpton6080 Let me guess, toxic masculinity? Don't worry, nobody thinks the NBA is masculine anymore.
when every team had 1-2 players with little to no hoop skills.
if i want to see enforcers i watch hockey.
and now, they have an entire bench of players with no skills.. lol.. If i wanna watch run and gun basketball with little set plays, I'll watch college ball..
@@soramirez5473 LOL, right, The NBA is already unwatchable now.
😂the nba is in the shitter because it’s pussy ball… flopping n shooting from half court🤣
@@soramirez5473 Maurice Lucas was a major enforcer, who averaged over 20 a game several seasons. Bill Laimbeer an enforcer, had a great mid range game. Lot's of the enforcers were highly skilled. Beats the HELL out of this new, stand around the 3 point line look around on defense, that the game has devolved into. The best Euroball in the world.
This video is nice but it is still overrates the late 80s and early to mid 90s, for obvious reasons:
1. Shaq was ejected out of the game for hard fouling Kemp at 0:44. Funny how no one sees that as the NBA being soft then. That goes contrary to the argument that folks make about how back then hard fouls were seen as just normal fouls and players were allowed to play on. Yet when a player hard fouls another player and gets ejected in today's game, folks would be screaming, "the NBA is soft".
2. The altercation that happened between Ewing and the Bulls assistant coach at 1:18 was nothing more than words being exchanged, what followed was just players separating other players. Another point to notice was MJ, who was the opponent of the NY Knicks, went to comfort/calm his friend Ewing down on the opposing. So much for "there was no friendship back in the 90s". This is something that, if it happened today, y'all would scream "soft" and swear that it would never happen back then.
3. The foul that Cardwell Jones had on Magic at the rim at 2:24 was a typical foul you would see in today's NBA, its not like Magic was punched, elbowed, or thrown down when going for the layup. the scuffle that followed was nothing more than players dragging other players and pushing, similar to scuffles that you see in today's NBA.
4. The scuffle between the two teams, the Raptors and the Hawks from 4:19 - 4:29, was nothing more than pushing and pushing, nothing else. Then people got separated. Both Camby and Terry got Technical fouls, something that oldheads SWEAR would never happen back then, as they claim incidents like that would result in normal fouls, no techs.
5.The foul that was called on McDaniels at 6:54 that made him angry, was a weak call, something that of called today, people would scream "the NBA is soft". Him showing emotion as he did is something we see Draymond does all the time in today's NBA.NOTHING NEW.
6. The rest of the other clips is basically players fouling other players, and then shoving, pushing and separating. There are no elbows or punches being thrown, no real scraps, just the usual scuffles you see in today's NBA.
I can go on and on.... This post is not to disregard the beauty of 80s and 90s basketball. Its just made to point out how oldheads or 90s radicals are so quick to call everything that happens in today's NBA "soft", whereas everything that happened in this video, has happened in today's NBA as well.
you just said a whole lot of nothing there kiddo. No matter how hard you try to nitpick every little thing to downgrade the golden era and overrate today's soft league, It's just a fact and evident that today's mentality is completely different and soft with rules, players and idiotic fans like you.
@@user-jg6gu87tfcdrtbb why u so mad
Its not Cardwell Jones Its Caldwell! You must be in your 20s or early 30s and its Xavier mcdaniel. Not Mcdaniels! If you want to downgrade the era of the 70s, 80s or 90s at least get the names right of the people you are trying to downgrade
You’re right. These young guys don’t remember the ‘77 playoffs. Maurice Lucas vs Daryl Dawkins.
I meant the 77 finals.
