Overall cool to see the NBA has trended back up with size. Teams are crashing the offensive glass a lot more and you are seeing bigs really punish when smaller guys are switched onto them. This wasn’t the case a couple years ago. Not seeing small ball success like in the late 2010s
Small ball worked because smaller players tended to be better shooters and playmakers than taller, less skilled players. Once taller guys started to add shooting to their skill sets it became less potent.
Yeah it’s just cool to see the evolution and adaptation of these big guys
