Guards from the 2000s that wouldn’t translate well to today’s style of play (alien.top)

The topic of how players adapt to the modern game is pretty common, but I generally hear how centers from the 2000s with their heavy post play and lack of an outside shot wouldn’t do well in today’s NBA. I’m wondering who you guys think are guards from that era who would have difficulty adjusting to the current NBA today.

I’m not too sure how AI would adapt to the modern NBA. I’m sure he’d still be good, but I think his value would be a bit reduced

Yes. 5’11 scoring guard; everyone in the nba-which is now focused around length and switch ability- will be absolutely cooked
