My teenage self thought Hakim Warrick’s length and athleticism was gonna make him a good nba player smh

Blew my mind with this when I first saw it

What player/players woulda thrive in this era’s style of play?

As a Houston homer, Cuttino Mobley would eat in this league. He had some solid seasons back then as well.

Keith Van Horn
Glen Robinson
Rafer Alston - where is he now?

 

[storm2006]

This may sound ridiculous and be a hot take but what about Antoine Walker? I know he had a solid career, production wise, but even back then he was averaging anywhere from 5 to 8 3PA per game. He only shot like mid-35% from deep but I think he’d benefit immensely from the improved spacing and potentially pace. I think that would lead to better shooting splits

Hmm tough question. There is no tractor trailers in todays game. And christie man he couldn't shoot a lick he wouldn't get burn today. Maybe Lonzo? Lonzo will develop into a much better player than him though
