The NBA should gather every old head players still alive in one room and have Gil roast them one by one with their shit takes 😭😂
Finally somebody is pushing back. These 80’s and 90’s players are telling “we walked 4 mikes in the snow to school” fairy tales every day on TNT, ESPN, and FS1. Players have to step up and start checking them on the facts.
So Shaq be lying about what he would do? Gtfoh
Where did say something about Shaq?
The self awareness is so much needed in everything. Much respect ✊🏿
Everything he said is nonsense. Lol. This TH-camr destroys all the bull that Gilbert and Lou said in this video th-cam.com/video/kwRXJOOHPLc/w-d-xo.html

I was still very young when Gilbert Arenas played, I was like 12. I remember the GA hype, but too young to appreciate. Man this guy is hilarious and relatable off the court too. I remember getting an Agent 0 poster in a sports illustrated and had it hanging up in my locker in school lol
He was one of the best. An All-Star starting guard.
before the Beard, we have Agent Zero.
He was a beast until he got hurt. Would have liked to see how he would have been healthy, in his peak.
I'm a 80's/90's kid. And that F'D up defense was really in the 80's. My brother and I HAAAATED DETROIT. We used to say that ain't defense, that's jail ball.
Baaadddddd Booyyyyssssss
But don’t just go at the Pistons, it was the whole 80s. Celtics, 76ers, Lakers. They all played jail ball and were actually punching each other 😂. The 90s was the changing of the guard we see today where the rules were made to finally stop defenses from playing jail ball and close lining people. People forget that Jordan played in that closelining defense only at the beginning of his career. So when they show the highlights of him getting knocked out the air by piston players, that was in the 80s before he started winning. He complained to the league (as he should have) and the rules started changing and stopped allowing defenders to be such a skilless thing. The 90s is when defenders had to start adapting and using skills like predicting what direction an offensive player was driving and create offensive fouls or flopping. It trips me out people act like flopping is something that just recently got created. The great defenders who started it did it all the time like Scottie and Dennis Rodman. It’s a skill
@@greg2797 Fake news on Jordan,, again.

Brutal
Gil goin off this episode lmaooo
Lmao I fw it for real
Gil needs to research the NBA rule changes before speaking. The NBA purposely changed the league rules to create higher scoring and made it a more perimeter friendly game.

:56 THANK YOU GIL!!
I’ve been taken out over the past few years with all this whining about smaller players who are already at a disadvantage against players with more length, strength, size and power. Their only real advantages are their handles, quickness and intelligence. It’s basic basketball and the proper way to draw a foul. BEAT YOUR OPPONENT AND MAKE HIM FOUL YOU. That player either needs to keep up, switch off or fall back.
Arenas and the new guys can say what they want, but the decline of viewership says it all.
you can say decline of viewership, i can say there is so many things to watch and how to watch it now, not every view is really counted now
More ratings now than then, it’s a worldwide sport and it’s still growing especially in Europe and even Canada where it’s hockey dominated. I see a ton of jerseys/merch everywhere I go.
Explains why it’s the 2nd most popular sport worldwide behind soccer. You “think” viewers are going down but it’s not
Let’s totally not factor in the amount of subscriptions you have to pay for in order to watch games… let’s not factor in that the NFL is by far the more popular sport, let’s not factor in anything else when talking about the decline in viewership…. It’s crazy that people as stupid as you exist in this world
The person who had to beep out shit earned their money on this one.
He was late on half of em 😭
That shit hurt me ears. More than half of us grown. And the other half know what he’s saying. Stop the beeps
didn't even beep out the word shit
Gilbert did nothing in the NBA but pull a gun out on his teammate! He aint won nothing! He was an slightly above average player! That's it! He need to shut his mouth!
@@hiphopsmaddness It's time to cancel Gilbert too! He's a clown who did nothing in the league! The boy had no heart Lebron Tapped his chest and this emotional nut bag miss two free throws!
This actually is a cycle of life. In a few years Gil and Lou are gonna be talking about back in they days lol.
i mean gill does all the time
But Gill did say he didn’t wanna play defense back then so he knowsssss his defense wouldn’t be good now 😂😂
Of course they talk about back in the days but at least understand the evolution of the game and don’t hate lmao
Yeah Gil not like these old heads
Gil played during that transition from 90s iso/post-up heavy basketball, to the pick and roll heavy but not yet raining 3s offense of the 2010s. So I think he's got a good perspective since he played when the NBA was just starting to evolve into what it is now.
thank you for saying it 🎉👏🏽 somebody had to
I have yet to see Gil have a truly “bad” take
He actually understands the game AND everything else
He had many bad takes one was where he said kwame was bust
Flopping is a skill is a bad take

LMFAO!! True, to a degree... You can't dribble the ball, below the free throw line, with your back or your side to the basket, for over 5 seconds...
Facts
Looool and people want that basketball in today’s game. Backing down your defender for 15 seconds. Ooffff
@@newrecruit100 the rule is 5 seconds though...oof...🤔😂
Gil speaking facts here!
"When I seen J.J. Reddick 23 million. I need to swallow my pride and start working out again."🤣🤣🤣
Dude mad disrespectful 😂
Greatness will always find a way to be great. I bet Gil has never heard Baron Davis speak. He told a story about guarding and playing against John Stockton and he was saying he was playing a grown man with chest hair. He always got to his spots, mad the right reads had strong hands and was much stronger and quicker than you would think. Respect has to go both ways. Hoops is hooops IMO.
Yep
Yup I don't agree with this take at all in alot of regards.i think even players before thay like magic/ bird would still be great players today,same goes for rodman pippen etc they would still be great.i think there's just more good/great players today then there were In the past.
Absolutely the NBA today has about 30 superstars just like the NBA of yesterday or 90s per say. So skillfully it has evolved but people are only going to mention the same names like KD , Giannis, Steph, Lebron, Kyrie, etc. it ain’t a whole lot of bad mfs in today’s NBA . Gilbert be bugging sometimes
I do agree with Gils take overall, but context matters. I don't believe Stockton was trash at all, his game translates very well all time. However, I do believe he was slightly overrated in comparison to talent that has come after him. His assist record is moreso a testament to his longevity and the luck of pairing with EDP Malone for 2 decades.
@@michaelrudolph1428 every team got somebody beyond the top 2 players who can do something very well. You can't say that about the 90s. Paxson and kerr can hit 3 but where's the d? Anthony Mason can be a draymond on defense but liability on offense. Rudy go gobert is a C from the 70 80s.

You mean likes of luka and jokic who is literally the plumbers in 90s!?
Lol yall kids bro? Ok so in the 80s in 90s everybody had a post game n the iq was better, not as much turnovers than now but yall like long 3s n flashy dunks n say the game more skill when none of the guards have post games n most bigs don't either but they're more skilled cause they shoot 3s no u gotta have multiple skills n they don't pups
The man said Dennis Rodman is a little guy in today’s game like he ain’t never gaurd shaq, Tim Duncan, Hakeem etc, all in their prime I might add. Arenas is tripping calling his name.
true, Draymond green is 6'7 but PF in todays game
Shaq 27 dropped points on him in all their matchups😭😂😂😂plz
I wonder how Lou feeling while Gil hyping this little man scenario when he like 6’1 🤣🤣🤣..That’s hilarious
Lou knows his place
Iverson dominate and he's small
He way more skilled than the 90 guards

Flopping is a skill like wearing fake jewelry and scamming people makes you a successful businessman.
Flopping is done to draw fouls and it takes skill to do it effectively. Btw flopping has been around for many generations.
@@memcrew1 flopping is a skill according to idiots.
@@studiobauhaus7740 yet players are making millions doing it…
@@xavierfarrow you can be an idiot and make millions. Dont be a fool and think rich and successful people cant be idiots.
Bill Laimbeer was known throughout the League for his flopping...in the 80s....so I dont wanna hear it
And old Kobe roasted these younger athletic and bigger guys that were "evolved"
no he didn’t
Kobe only averaged 17 PPG at age 38 what you Talkin bout??? Kobe even sold out Game 7 against Steve Nash Phoenix Suns cause he just wants to send messages to the front office that the roster is not good enough that he needs help🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷
“Gotta member….” Needs to be on a shirt 😂😂😂
I don’t think people are talking about securing position with flopping. People are talking about falling over when shooting 3s not having been touched, offensive player falling over when the defensive player swipes for the ball, etc. The rules are now in favor of not allowing the defensive player to dictate where the offensive player is going. C’mon
and all the superstars play like this, it’s good to get fouls but that shit is annoying to watch for the fans
Exactly, Gil is not trying to acknowledge that.
@@poundthatpavement652 flopping and soft fouls happened in the 90s stfu
Era bias always gone come into play but this era doo be flopping like a mf doe every play lol
They got that from the 90s boss Reggie did it mike got bs calls and pushing people out the air when they can’t guard them isn’t talent or good defense it’s trash tbh and skill less everybody ain’t like that but a lot of em was
“Y’all couldn’t stop jordan so you just close lined a mf” lmao
Lmfao @ pulling receipts on your coach. Respect
The skills are really different. The reason why players can easily score nowadays bcoz they are faster, skillful and some are bigger than the old era
So there is no defense for that? What happened to the other side of the ball? Remember they are playing another team.
Even if they were bigger and faster, aren't they also bigger and faster on defense?
The players are not more skilled Lmao 🤣
“You little, idk why I was scared of u” 🤣
Gilbert needs to remember the episode of Knuckleheads where he admitted that little Gary Payton posted him up and killed him. And then when they switched the big guy onto Payton, he posted up their big guy too. It doesn’t matter how big you are if the other person is that good at posting up. Posting up is a lost art form for point guards nowadays. No more Gary Payton’s or Mark Jackson’s who can do it that well. So yeah, there was a reason why Gilbert should be afraid of these little guys. He’s acting like size and athleticism is the be all end all. Payton and John Stockton would still school the player’s of today.
Billups was a beast in the post too
Ask Westbrook he post up lil Nd big guards
You LiIITle
evolution is part of life and every step is important for things to progress. life is a journey.
What evolved?
Your evolution is run down take stupid shots
Remove most skill needed and replace with volume stupid shoots
Can bigs like AD Embid and such do more then say Hakeem? Sure but show me 1 big today who can dominate the game like Hakeem or Shaq
This is where low iq hangs fans with dumb answers like they can play zone now.......
Name 1 college player then who aint face any defense ran today in college I got all week u wont find 1 so thats moot
If the game "evolved" got "better"
Why has ratings kept declining and set all time lows last year
During a pandemic where we were so deaperate for ANYTHING NEW
Lmao last dance did more numbers then ANY current game easy
Sorry junior to protect a weak af queen james NBA ripped big men out of the game and lessened the skill of the game

@@solephonic your knowledge of the game is extremely juvenile void of facts
@@lukelucky1311 i just posted a quote. calm down.
@@lukelucky1311 the game has evolved immensely since the 90’s,
1. Shooters are on another planet today and that’s including big men who rarely shot from the perimeter in the 90’s.
2. Teams play more team oriented style of ball than in the 90’s where dominant post players dominated the bulk of scoring.
3. Point guards aren’t just pass first guys anymore, it’s crucial that your pg can pick & roll and be a threat to score.
4. Defense isn’t just one on one until your man gets beat and hopefully your center can make up for it anymore, teams now have schemes and zone coverages depending on the matchup (illegal defense made it impossible back in the day)
5. The game has grown exponentially across the globe, producing better players all over the world. The international pool of players is slowly matching and surpassing homegrown talent

What everyone is missing is that the players from the 90's would adapt to this era if they had the opportunity.... You can't compare different eras that had different rules and ways of plying the game.... Players of any pro sports are highly competitive, so of course they'll have confidence to win in any era.... This generation would be successful in the the 90's.... The 90's generation would do good in this era.... Both would just have to adjust to the rules in place.
Kobe…
Gil: 😖 i ain’t have to guard him!
😂😂😂 Gil so real
@4:26 facts😂 the game evolves so comparing different eras as better or worse isn’t fair to the players. If MJ played today, he’d shoot the 3🤷🏾♂️ if Lebron [grew up] in ‘75 his skill set would be different based on how they played back then. The same goes for all players, you can’t just “drop” a player from one era into another era. The game always evolves…
Nah. You can drop Jordan anytime.
@@TheRoadLessChosen Wrong. They would call fouls on Jordan.
@@msp5138 huh? Found on Jordan? Wtf are you talking about?
It is a thought experiment to 'drop' a player in. For one it compares skill sets, the skill which steph, lebron, kyrie etc display is far superior to what you see in 75 which is the point of saying the skill set is higher today.
@@justinlevy274 man, I agree 95%. But it's getting to the point where it might be hard for these players to adapt to that old style. Refs have evolved....rulings have evolved. Allen Iverson's crossover was sometimes called a travel, with certain refs.
We drop Kyrie in the 70s... We take away all that fancy dribbling, that will get called traveling, carry, or palming. We take away the euro steps, the 0 step, the crab dribble, the step back.... It'd be interesting.
I still think they dominate, but for a game or two I'd be hilarious to watch them try to adapt.
I’m a old head who likes to adjust and adapt to the times ! There’s great things in this generation that I like and there’s some things that I don’t but that where I am at when it comes to basketball !

@@codys3009 well not only bball its nuts who say a fighter from 30-40s in boxing would beat a way more advanced one from 70s-90s
And its nuts who say a basic fighter from 70s could beat one from 80s-now the boxing nuts is way worst video proof has been showed mutiple times showing advances over these years yet they still act blind and say those outdated era's was better
That's why I said 90s Defense was way easier. You don't have to worry about a guy past 15-17 feet.
Numbers and history say ur wrong
@@m.j.w.2876 post some info.. almost every team had only one scoring threat. The other 4 you didn't have to worry about them. Just have to sag and clog the lane.

Ill send steph bron kd giannis embiid from the 90's and they will comeback laughing with rings on their hands.
I honestly dont see giannis and embid killing dudes like robinson, shaq, akeem and some others that was the era of the big man
Half of the guys you mentioned are already limping in this era with zero defense and you planning on sending them to an era where defense is more emphasized. Yeah sure buddy.
Sure bud. This TH-camr destroys all the bull that Gilbert and Lou said in this video th-cam.com/video/kwRXJOOHPLc/w-d-xo.html
Gil got the sensor hitting the beep button like keys on a typewriter.
Y’alls video team been more timely than ever lately
Gilbert had the caplock on in this one. Lol
You can look at old school highlights and new highlights and clearly see the new players have way more skills over time
Not even close. Nobody today has a highlight reel like Jordan. Plus the fact that most of the old highlights weren't filmed in 4k HD like today
That’s one player my dude. NBA today is clearly more athletic and skilled than the 90’s
@@generalkayoss7347 if you watch Kobe you can see that he took MJ's game and improved it to the next level and I don't even want to talk about the shooting of Reggie Miller compared to Steph curry
@@isaiahamos4276 So Kobe was an improvement on MJ? Sorry I'm not very knowledgeable on basketball, I always thought Kobe was great but not quite on Jordans level. How did he improve upon Jordan?
@@troy8613 as far as his game even Jordan would say he improved that type of skill set Jordan was Kobe's teacher he copied everything Jordan did but brought it to the next level
I love Gilbo 😂😂
The reason you score in the high 100s is the defensive rules has changed
And players are just more skilled can’t forget about that
actually the offense just got better and the floor is more spread out
The defense rules allowing u to hand check and hack ppl instead of playing real defense? Most of these guys would’ve got dropped every game if those rules gone a long time ago tony Allen the goat on the ball defender Fr no hand check no hacks straight lock-in u up
3 points is worth more than 2 points simple math. Players are more skilled today and shoot more 3s
Factual!
Rodman wasn’t 210 lmao, dude guarded Shaq
Exactly
228- not too far off
@@danieljuarbe5779 bro I'm 237. Rodman weighed more then me for sure.
@@williamh.gatesiii8183 Just googled it and he weighed about 220 when he played LMAO KD weighs 240.
The way he talks about ai sounds so funny to me. "Uhh we don't know what that is yet so we just gonna throw him at the 2"
Except Isiah Thomas, Oscar Robertson and Tim Hardaway were “that”. Gilbert just doesn’t understand that these players were all better than he was.

Gil spitting that real 🤣. That was WWF/NBA
The truth is somewhere in the middle. I think the younger generation doesn't realize the advantages their rules five them. The older generation underestimates the level of skill required to put up the numbers some of these guys put up.
I think a lot of people understand but petty & trolling > being realistic. Old heads talk down on the game constantly so then young dudes reply to that with equal hot takes and old heads get mad
That's exactly what it is man it's somewhere in the middle
Exactly
I agree. But everybody on the opposite ends wants to be right tho
Players are better now

Of course,what you think this show about?
So is he not speaking the truth?

Gilbert threw his career away over a dice game also said Zion should play like Dwade 😂😂😂

@@Tybuscus23 Gil must be a family member 😂
@@shhmatdelski8386 didn't even try with that one smh
Oscar Robinson said all they had to do with Steph Curry is hand check him and that will be enough lol
Curry is known to play worse with physical defense applied to him
Dennis Roman guarded Shaq and Karl Malone. He could guard anyone he wanted to guard even in today’s game. How you gonna talk shit about Dennis and Scotty but hype up Drayton Green? Makes no sense. Both are better defenders.
Gilbert arenas speaks as if he was Kobe Bryant
Only a handful of guys today play with their backs to the basket like malone and shaq. Rodman never guarded dudes who faced him up and couldn't today. There were no ball handlers in the 90s like there are today. That's one of the things they mean when they talk about how skilled people are today due to evolution. 6'6+ guys with tighter handles than 90s 6'1 guards.
@@therealsomeRecluse There isn't an evolution of players as much as an evolution of the rules. No hand checking and the Defensive 3 sec rule drastically changed how the game is played, and how you build a team. The only thing that keeps a guy like Rodman from playing well in today's league is inability to shoot. Bill Laimbeer on the other hand would fit right in in today's league. Its a shame he isn't in the NBA HOF as a player.
@@conchobar bill laimbeer will get killed off pick and rolls. Players today have developed shooting. Everyone is able to knock down shots
@@conchobar they still hand check ...watch the games
The amount of *beeps* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, Walt Frazier, Earl Monroe, Dave Bing, Gus Williams, Isaih Thomas etc were all considered pG at one tme in their careers while leading their teams in scoring.
actually the game now reminds me of the 80's a fast paced game it was nothing for a team to get 110-125 points and danny ainge flopped all the time the slow down game came when everyone wanted to post up and barkley backed someone down in the post for damn near the whole shot clock and the pistons were hacking the shit out of everyone
Major props on ainge ALWAYS flopping lol
@@RIDGEMATIC lol back in the day Danny ainge was the king flopper mixed with Pat Beverly he would get in dudes heads and get them to hit him the only difference is they let them dudes scrap for bout 30 seconds back then lol teams had goons that’s what Anthony mason , Charles Oakley was
Facts . Mad funny yo
Except it’s waaaaaaaaaaaaay more 3’s today. Back then, they were getting 120 points on 2’s.
Penny, ghill, stockton
Gil acting like Dennis Rodman and Pippen are small when the Clips are playing Nick Batum at center most nights and are in the conference finals. Greatness is Greatness.
@D Thomas He 6'8 205 he doesn't have the body mass to be over 220.
Rodman say he would lock down lebron... bullshit... he cnt guard bron or KD
Exactly Everytime I watch a game now everyone on the court is under 6'8
Nick batum can shoot it’s different
@@HeHe-zx2ei draymond green is 6’5 220 and Dennis rodman is 6’8 both play PF. Yet draymond is known to be one of the 2010s best defenders but Dennis rodman is now undersized?
Old heads beg for respect by not showing respect to the new generation. Shit is so annoying listening to 60 year olds saying “these guys couldn’t last in my day” like 6’9 250 would struggle 😂
@@johnnythekid4601 dude shut the fuck up. I get it you’re 50 years old and think everything was better back then lmao
He said Chuck dribbled the ball 42 times 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
NBA allows fouling to stop the fastbreak where all the highlights happen, flopping is becoming more of a priority than actually playing straight up defense or offense and refs have been straight up awful. There is a LOT of room for improvement.
Real life
the refs were awful then.
What do you mean "allows?" If someone is fouled, the refs call it. You expect the refs to close their eyes when a fast break is about to begin?
@@kingmalik09 No goofy. If its an unnatural foul you give the team who got fouled FTs and the ball to stop that foul from occurring. Like they do in international play.
@@zType2 this isn’t international play💀newsflash not every league has the same rules and plays an archaic style of basketball
Part of what drives the evolution of the game are the rules changes. Today's players are bigger and stronger due to sports training advances so it's hard to compare eras. Every era has had great players that could play in any era if they had the same medical, nutrition, and training methods. LeBron spends a million dollars on his body every year which is great but some past eras didn't have the money or the advancements to do that. In the end it's like comparing apples and oranges.
These players are built bigger too not just more nutrition.
@@ytbasketball101 It's not just the food it's the personal training, recovery methods, sports science, and the income to take advantage of all that. The average height and size of players has remained about the same since the 60s. Wilt was one of the few players that worked with weights and he became insanely big and strong. As time has passed the methods have improved and changed in a dramatic way. This isn't here say, it's science. Take Goerge McGinnis for example. George was 6'8" and about 240 of solid muscle and never lifted nuthin except cigarettes to his mouth. He had an amazing 8 year prime then faded out. Drop that man into modern basketball with his excellent touch, natural strength, great skill, and all the money and training that this era affords and you'd have another Lebron, that's how good he was. Oh, and by the way, his peak was in the 70s. Gus Johnson was another forward like that in the 60s and then in the 80s you had players like Dominique Wilkins, Larry Bird, and others. I could go on but you get the picture.
@develon Anthony Of course they did but sports science has come a long way
@develon Anthony The rules have changed A LOT to allow that development to happen. All the step backs and crossovers would have been called traveling and carrying the ball until the NBA started letting players get away with it. It's not like players just started getting more coordinated 😂
Man Gil talking like those greats was all 6'1 when there where big dudes aplenty back then
7:36 LOL, that is so cold.
Lmao all bleeps 😂😂😂
This dude has zero credibility. He try to play Zion like he would struggle in the NBA. Now hes slighting Ant Mason(RIP)? He continues to show great talent doesn’t equate to logical analysis. He just be yappin.
