Lack of hand checking
Anyone else laugh when Doug Gottlieb talks about hand checking and shite?

"Yeah, he's got space now. But if I was guarding Lebron in the 90's I would get to put my hand on his hip and steer him."

Yeah, you go get him, Doug

He is right. Well he isn't (gottlieb wasn't good enough or strong enough to steer lebron), but it is much easier to work in space than it used to be. Lebron wouldn't have been affected as much as guys like steph, harden, etc.

I'm an older guy that appreciates the late 80s and early 90s NBA and the NBA of the last 6 or 7 years.
