Father Time is undefeated, and even 2 years ago Harden was past his physical prime.

Maxey had nowhere to go but up.

OP wasn't even suggesting that Maxey would definitely be better, just that it was entirely possible. And, of course it was.

Patrick Williams has been in the league for four years after this year, by the 2 years away from being 2 years away system, he'll definitely be All-NBA next year.

Also. Kevin's 35, he's not fucking dead. I think my man can still play like 15 minutes of an NBA game.

Caruso absolutely plays insanely physical defence; Bulls game I was watching recently, I forget against who, the other team's announcers were constantly saying "look at what the refs are letting Caruso get away with, good god this guy just kicks your ass."

He's not the only one, I'm sure Jrue, Marcus Smart, OG, Dillon Brooks, are right up into people if we look at the tape. Hell FVV spent the entire '19 Finals basically holding Steph Curry.

I can't tell you whether this is a case of "well this is just the way it is in the NBA, a certain level of physicality is allowed on D" or that those guys all have a reputation as great defenders, so they get away with playing physical. Little bit of both?

You're wrong, the number is 100%.

The number 1 stupidest thing of the sports internet is people complaining about calls based on slow mo high def replays.

If it's hard to see in real time a human being isn't going to see it. Nephews stop.

And let's not even get into the fact that everyone sells contact like crazy now, so, on an important play, if a guy throws his head back, what, it's an automatic foul because it could have been a foul and it's too hard to see in real time?
