This is so true... 90's knicks and bad boy pistons teams are not around anymore.. I wish the hand check was still allowed... Since the rule has been put into place it's allowed offense to take off... More blow outs less close games in the 90's teams were lucky to get to 90 pts let alone 100 ... The NBA was more exciting back then cause games were a lot closer and teams were able to fight more talented teams with great defense..

The last 3 maybe 4 threes were when someone else was guarding Curry.
I have seen Shevd on Thompson and Livingston..Curry has been on Gallo..I can't tell who should be guarding Curry because he has been so wide open..He leads the league in threes made..
A couple few came in transition and off screens when there was a switch. It was what it was. The Knicks do not have the kind of D to slow down any elite player for a whole game.
No one has the D to stop the Warriors. You better be able to score if you hope to beat them.
Curry would of had a hard time doing what he dose now in the 90s..bring back the hand check and curry would be pushed around like a little boy who can't get past the three point line.. Much like his dad in the 90's
It's a totally different game now. It's all about skill now. You can't just muscle up and thug your way into the league. NFL is similar in their own way. NFL rules allow wide receivers to get open much more. Fans love the scoring.

Yep. Pretty automatic from three though.

I don't know- The Pacers have been winning lately and it isn't because of an abundance of scoring.

I feel similar- it's kind of a vapid scoring or something- doesn't really engage or impress me.
