Sorry but this is so much more aesthetic than launching 60 threes a game

[@mikethomas4368]

The game now has basically no strategy to it. It's so boring how everyone plays the same.

[@dreamchaser4822]

You both are absolutely correct.

[@coreyortiz9913]

todays style of play is so cringe

[@Leo-qe3gl]

Absolutely. Back then a three pointer was something special. When someone hits 20/20 3 pointers from midcourt (Curry) like today it becomes boring.

David Robinson was the man!!!

You don't see battles like this anymore especially at the center position

[@akumawani]

i just luv to hear the yunguns talk about how these guys couldnt play today. well. if u dont put a body on the admiral and physical him- u got no chance

[@mattc5647]

Bro you're 30, and probably watched 5 games a year. Great players are great in any "era". You don't understand the mindset to achieve at that level.

[@dreamchaser4822]

This is real world class basketball and two world class centers. Big, strong, powerful, athletic, skillful, inside, outside, slam dunks, midrange j’s. Real all round players. Especially Ewing’s jump shot form is the model for players of all positions.

[@damonsonnier34]

David Robinson won this one on one matchup in scoring, defense, and efficiency. This was also an underrated season from Robinson as well, as it showed he was becoming an elite defender.

[@RighteousRhythm]

Robinson always dominated Ewing.

He did but Ewing held his own even though it was a blow out.

The early days of the Riley era Knicks before they really started to click.

[@cheryzheng]

The early 90 Knicks was the best

[@hughjass8383]

The Knicks had their best Ewing era teams under Riley; it's just that the Admiral is far better than Pat

I always like this beginning of the nba on tnt the players passing the ball in their respective cities

[@osensey1]

Basketball used to be sophisticated, creative, there were more unconventional plays, more passes, dunks... Every match was fierce, and when you entered the playoff phase, you could see that it was already fire. Now it's boring, no show, no dunks, no cool passes, not to mention the fact that there is no real center anymore. There were almost only big stars in each team. The ball moved faster, there were real playmakers. Everything was sorted out. Every position on the field used to be distinct, now it seems as if the boundaries are blurring. Basketball was tough, manly... But what can you expect? What times, such basketball.

[@jaymum23]

Money and softness ruined the game. Don’t get me started on load management and every star only playing 65 games per year. Ewing had bad knees and played all 82 several times, and throughput his Knick career gave you 75-82 games.

[@abrahamalvarez8321]

Mr Robinson.

Thanks for uploading this awesome video!

[@DJVijilante]

Hakeem is my number 1, but great to see the real DRob vs the one in the 1995 Conference Finals or the post injury one. People don’t understand how much of a beast he was. I’m really leaning towards taking DRob over Duncan if I had to pick one for my team.

[@Sensei.shonuff]

Imo the 90s was the greatest era in the NBA their were soooooo many great players the level of competition was insane David Robinson Tim Duncan Patrick Ewing Jordan pippen Olajuwon Shaq Iverson Kobe Drexler Shawn Kemp Mugsy bogues Spud webb Charles Barkley I could go on and on and on

[@mkingl25]

5:20 I love that right there I was really hoping for Robinson to pick him up because Idk who was mic’d but you could hear the humongous Ewing go “eughh” at that shot and it was to draw a foul but it still looked like it hurt and Robinson was already destroying I mean it’s knocking a guy while you’re beating him at his game, LITERALLY.

Peak Robinson edges Peak Ewing. Peak Hakeem edges both and, if he had better career (in their prime) teammates, would be more strongly considered the best center of all time. Put Hakeem on those Showtime Lakers teams and he has 4+ chips. Late 80's -> 90's big man. play was unparalleled.

[@melvynsngltn27]

Olajuwon was ball dominant, he couldn't play with Magic and the Showtime Lakers because you needed it to play off the ball

[@sribble1]

@@melvynsngltn27 He was faster and quicker than Kareem who seemed to do just fine on the Lakers. Hakeem also had way better hands for steals/poking the ball, which creates transition opportunity, which lends itself to work with a faster, quicker player. We're talking about Hakeem as top 5 ever if he played with the Lakers.

[@melvynsngltn27]

@@sribble1 still won't matter he's no Kareem

[@sribble1]

@@melvynsngltn27 Thank goodness. He'd need significant attribute decreases to become Kareem. Kareem had it really hard playing with Magic Johnson...lol. Become slower, less agile, lose offensive diversity, and develop degraded footwork habits. Grow three inches and play with the best point guard ever and a HOF power forward. Prime Hakeem is still looking for an All Star teammate... Get carried.

[@ivanfranceschi9139]

​@@sribble1Uh, by the time Magic came around, Kareem wasn't in his prime. Put Kareem from the Bucks on that Lakers team and he might be the MVP. Hakeem had Clyde Drexler in 1995, one of the 50 greatest players ever, so don't act like he had ZERO help...

[@jaymum23]

@@DJVijilante Olajuwon outplayed Ewing in the 94 Finals but positively torched Robinson in the 95 WCF. Hakeem averaged 27 ppg vs Ewing and 35 ppg vs Robinson. Ewing out-rebounded and out-blocked Hakeem too. You’re looking at regular season stats. In the playoffs, Ewing performed better than his season averages and better than Robinson’s playoff averages.

[@nitro5432]

Wow Robinson was a beast, to bad for him that the spurs never knew what to do with him, they never put together a good team to support him.
