DeMar DeRozan's longevity is underrated. Entering year 15 and still a 20+ point scorer. I didn't expect this when the Raptors drafted him in 09 as a raw athlete and the fact that he's been realitively healthy his whole career while putting up his productivity is fantastic.
The longevity of this generation has been overshadowed by the poster boy of longevity. It’s actually crazy how many “current” stars have surpassed the longevity of a lot of legends
People gotta remember that adding muscle mass is a genetic thing on top of training. Some people can lift 5 times a week and not gain too much while some people can lift 1 time a week and gain more muscle
Saying Steph isn't a better Point Guard all time than Magic isn't crazy but the fact that he said that Steph wasn't a point guard when his main position has been point guard cause of playstyle and saying he didn't revolutionize the game is insane.
Steph has been an offball SG his whole life. He isn't exactly a Pg. In the words of Paul Pierce "he's a wing guy" . Same as Allen Iverson except AI is an on ball juggernaut
@@debonairdemigod You mean since 2016 because he was "traditional" before that. Steph is a PG just how West was one and Oscar was one. To me Magic is a Point Forward he wasn't defending the opponent PG anyway that was Cooper and Scott who was doing that. And outside of Zeke who averaged a 26 ppg Finals when he won his FMVP and has the most point in a quarter in playoff history (not very "traditional" for a PG btw), TRADITIONAL PG don't win SHIT as the first option anyway they all are 3rd or 4th option when they win a ring (look at Cousy behind Russell and Heinsohn, Payton as a role player in Miami or Kidd behind Dirk, Jet/Marion )

I hate the steph ain't a true point guard argument. Just cause he doesn't drop 10+ assists he's still a darn good playmaker, but because he's a good shooter he's not a point guard.
it’s a lazy argument. basketball has evolved way past positions, why are we still holding players to the standards of those positions when we all wanna talk about positionless ball? being a traditional point guard does not matter.
@@deanoss777 BECAUSE you want it BOTH ways!! "Positionless" when you want YOUR fave to make the All Star/All NBA team. "Positions" when you want to talk all time.
Steph averaged 30 with 7 assist 2016 mvp season. I don’t understand the “true point guard” bs. You get called a true point guard because you lack half court scoring ability.😂
It will always be a stupid argument. Steph not being a true pg because he's not "traditional" is insane since Magic is anything but traditional as a PG. Dude was an anomaly in his era, most dude his size can't even dribble the ball without looking at it and he was doing tricks on it on both hands, pause.
The hooper being someone that "can dominate in any team anywhere in the world" is so stupid because Giannis and Steph are probably THE 2 players literally every single team would gut their own depth just to have them because no matter what they would be a definite improvement.
"Curry aint a traditional point guard" Magic is a point forward not a traditional pg. No traditional pg was scoring in the paint with sky hooks and playing center in the finals 😂😂 Also people never watch stephs full games bc if they did, theyd see that hes an elite playmaker. He runs a lot of the offense for golden state whether on ball or offball. Hes also a great passer
Nothing abt Steph to the game today is just "enhanced" he literally made 3pt shooting the staple in basketball. Without him offense wouldn't be what it is today.

The Canadian team argument is flawed. Shai (their best player) attending US schooling during highschool and college. The same goes for Brooks. These guys weren’t born and bred in Canada, they spent their childhoods there but spent their developmental years in the states.
The very first take…I disagree with the logic being used by bsolz to disagree. I’m not saying I agree with dude…bsolz just doesn’t attack the basis of the opinion
I agree but must say that I agree with the guy in the tiktok. It's plain to see what he's talking about. Magic had unconventional size for a PG, but his game was textbook point guard play. Meanwhile, Steph would legit be a 2 guard if he was any taller. He's only slotted in at the 1 bc of his size. That's not to say he hasn't or can't play point, but realistically, he's not a point guard given his MO of affecting the game.
@@T.H.E.O.R.Y.thats not how that works. Why does it matter if he’s not a “traditional point guard”? Just call him a non-traditional point guard and keep it pushing. You cant say “if he was any taller” cuz he’s just not.
Wemby and holmgreen will NEVER EVER have a giannis growth... giannis randomly grew 2 inches and put on 51lbs of MUSCLE not fat... his achilles is twice the length of other nba players
Holmgren won't because that's not how his body is built, he was rehabbing and working out all last year yet only gained 13 pounds, which is great but he's still smaller than most Sg's. Wemby casually put on 20 pounds of weight from the year before to his draft weight, he definitely is a lot more likely to have a giannis like transformation than chet especially if u have seen the workout pics recently u can tell he's put on muscle already
Solz has fr went from lawful good into full on chaotic neutral/evil. I know that sounds nerdy but bruh… bsolz fr became the evil he wanted to banish a long time ago. EY maybe sage did corrupt him, maybe sage infected Solz with the trolling germs and Solz infected sage with the reasonable germs, cuz ngl he is turning into the voice of reason.
Bro crazy thing is I've seen Jokic get the most love from my (subjective) hood. Yes it's anecdotal evidence but a big who can shoot and put it on the floor whilst dishing out a healthy amount of assists will always be welcomes by pure basketball enthusiasts.
Idk man. I think bro in the last video was kinda cooking about the Wemby media hype machine. The NBA was providing free access to his games in France for the entire season before he got drafted with their own English commentary and everything. Yes we're allowed to be excited but there is such a thing as too much. And as he rightfully said, I can already imagine the thinks Perk and Shaq and Steven A are going to say about him if he's anything less than the goat. So I think he was kinda right in some parts and not so right in others
he was, idk wth solz and sage were yappin about lmao, they are applying waaay too much hype and pressure onto victor, they need to be more realistic. Now i will say the european player comment the dude made was pointless
I get the "dont overhype players" argument, but the main problem was the dude in the video who knows nothing about wembanyamas skillset saying hes the same as bol bol, then using the fact he played in europe to discredit him
@@Khallos it’s not discrediting. Basketball isn’t the same in Europe as it is here. Hyping him up this crazy and if he doesn’t match expectations he will crumble😭 it’s not him hating him for being European it’s the fact that he isn’t even adjusted like other Europeans players were

Jokic is hated out of ignorance imo. Like most of his haters dont actually watch him and adsume they dont like him and let that be the basis for the slander they put on his name. Its sad too bc Jokic has one of the most enjoyable games to watch of all time and people watch espn and let Sas and Perk (both of them bafoons) form their opinions for them. Too many basketball fans dont watch basketball and it shows
Steph averaged 30 with 7 assist 2016 mvp season. I don’t understand the “true point guard” bs. You get called a true point guard because you lack half court scoring ability.😂
The reason why people keep trying to hold on to the idea of a treditional point guard is because guards today are asked to do more and therefore inharently more skilled on average. Steph affects the other teams defense more effectively than magics passing because Steph is a threat with OR without the ball. Steph being on the court changes the entire defensive scheme for teams. Magic needed the ball in his hands in order to have that effect on teams with his passing. Magic didn't create opportunities without the ball by setting screens or by being a dangerous off ball shot maker. Steph is the better PG
20:09 I think what melo is getting at is the “natural sense” of hoopin for the guys he mentioned, like watching them hoop n probably hoopin against them just seems jaw dropping compared to mind blowing like Giannis and lebron’s gameplay typically is 🤷🏽♂️
11:20 - As an NBA fan who is kind of only aware of TV and online discourse...is this actually true? Do people really dislike Jokic that much IRL? And if so, why?
It does not have to be USA vs the world, US vs. Europe would match up very well. This would be close in size regarding population. Europe has enough talent to match the superstars of the US.
7:20 idk if 60s even count as Oldhead Drinking Game cause in 2023, old heads have no clue how they played in the 60s. They think "Old School" is back to the basket, slowass post play - but 60s was straight cardio, crazy shots and turnovers
The fact that picture of team Canada with alot of nba players just mean those players took the places of what could have been American players. So yeah, the world is catching up.
KD’s longevity is questionable because the man missed like damn near 2 full seasons worth of games. He missed the entire 2019 season, only played 27 games in 2014 and only played 30 games in 2020. The man barely plays half the season. It’s more like he’s in year 15.
Chet or Vic puttin on 50 lbs isn't realistic. Look at a KG or KD, most lanky guys don't get that big. Even Jermaine O'Neal, Dirk, or AD didn't transform like that.
People need to realize that a lot of rhe reason Steph doesnt have super high assist numbers is bc hes just definitely the best off ball player of all time. Not to mention he has a top 10 bag ever imo. Steph gets over hated bc some fans dont like how the game is played today
In aspect of the FIBA conversation... why does Canada count against the USA? That's four continents and countries bordering the US. It should be North America vs the World at least. I'm pretty sure Canada's bball community is heavily influenced by the US bball culture anyway.
Because snobs want to push the agenda that the NBA isn’t ‘real basketball’ and that the EuroLeague is the definitive way to play. They jerk off over low post play and “FuNdAmEnTaLs” and think all NBA games consist of iso plays.

Idk TikTok is basically just the worst twitter takes in a video on ball it’s funny🤣🤣
7:20 idk if 60s even count as Oldhead Drinking Game cause in 2023, old heads have no clue how they played in the 60s. They think "Old School" is back to the basket, slowass post play - but 60s was straight cardio, crazy shots and turnovers
Broooo people hate lebron so much that you see ppl use there accounts on youtube Instagram etc specifically to hate lebron in every shape or form
If im top 3 player on the team im going with the ring options but if im a bench warmer or 6 man im taking the money
The fact that picture of team Canada with alot of nba players just mean those players took the places of what could have been American players. So yeah, the world is catching up.
Hating on Steph even after he got 4 rings is wild mans is literally a goat
120mil before or after tax?
Wtw old head drinking game we need that
Sage forgot when the warriors had DLo
Saying the world is catching up because of FIBA ball is insane 🤣🤣🤣
If your went from 20 to 25 yeah you actually are catching up sure your not even close but are you catching up yes
KD’s longevity is questionable because the man missed like damn near 2 full seasons worth of games. He missed the entire 2019 season, only played 27 games in 2014 and only played 30 games in 2020. The man barely plays half the season. It’s more like he’s in year 15.
By Melo’s logic Jokic is a “Pure Hooper” cause anywhere he goes he’ll immediately succeed
Chet or Vic puttin on 50 lbs isn't realistic. Look at a KG or KD, most lanky guys don't get that big. Even Jermaine O'Neal, Dirk, or AD didn't transform like that.
i want the old head drinking video 🤖
If the world wasn't catching up, why are there more foreign stars now than before? Hell two of them won chips in like the last 5 years
People need to realize that a lot of rhe reason Steph doesnt have super high assist numbers is bc hes just definitely the best off ball player of all time. Not to mention he has a top 10 bag ever imo. Steph gets over hated bc some fans dont like how the game is played today
You could put wemby and Chet on tren and make them eat 10k calories a day and I don’t think they’re gaining more than 30lbs of muscle
Wemby has already put on 20+ pounds from the year before in France to his draft weight from 207-230
bro someone explain to me how BOB FUCKING COUSY has more of a bag then Johnny Stockton....
In aspect of the FIBA conversation... why does Canada count against the USA? That's four continents and countries bordering the US. It should be North America vs the World at least. I'm pretty sure Canada's bball community is heavily influenced by the US bball culture anyway.
Because snobs want to push the agenda that the NBA isn’t ‘real basketball’ and that the EuroLeague is the definitive way to play. They jerk off over low post play and “FuNdAmEnTaLs” and think all NBA games consist of iso plays.
As long as it’s 10 million plus, I’d pay 5 million for a ring. That’s probably it
"He's a European player" that sentence right there tells me not to listen to him.
If steph isn’t the PG for the Warriors, then who is?
Draymond
@@dazgordon-hill2660 draymond is the 4, even sometimes the 5. And he’s not a perimeter player. The only “PG thing” he does is he passes the ball which i guess is enough
@@kidflashiv
Yes - RUN THE OFFENCE and COACH THE TEAM!!!!
STRENGTH IN NUMBERS!!
NOT "Steph Curry or bust"!!!!
Yall one minute scream "MODERN NBA IS POSITIONLESS".. then want to shoehorn these players into "greatest at THEIR position".
It's stupid and disingenuous.
John Stockton is a better PG than Steph Curry.
All tile leading in assists AND steals.
Steph is a great shooter lauded for shooting!!!
And Draymond is a SF.
All around great play.
Just like LeBron isn't a PF.
While Karl Malone is
@@dazgordon-hill2660 I’ve never said anything about positionless basketball. Positions still exist in today’s game. They’ve just evolved from previous eras. Steph is what you’d want in current star PG.
@@kidflashiv
Yall isn't you.
Yall is "widely recognised".
BUT apparently nobody's ever said it... cos I get this response, as if I just made the phrase up!!!
What next - I made up the term "load management"???
Chill wasn't being hypocritical there a difference between PLAYING and LOOKING different from a traditional PG.
Nah Solz, Harden was a PG the 1st year with CP3 and 2 years before that. He has more years as a SG than PG
funniest things is even if they win the olympics they still wont be World Champion
This man tried to make an argument for Canada and mention RJ Barrett brah
Lebrons longevity is different than most players because he’s actually been good from the beginning someone like steph wasn’t close to the level of player coming into the league as someone like Lebron
Trueee
But Steph was still good early on but Bron better
Steph is the best pg. if you make the best starting line up with all players ever curry is a must at the pg position. Underrated defense too
No.
I’d put him on the team cause I have bron on the team but magic is still better
People forget didn’t just get big he grew 2in in height that ain’t something any tall lengthy guy do
