Because you weren't a good enough defender, you now resort to assaulting and injuring players to boost your ego. THATS not basketball. And making "unsportsmanlike conduct" a part of your judgement criteria is disingenuous and asinine. Shaq is basically saying he won't respect many newer players going forward because the rules don't allow them to "touch each other up (in Shaq terms)" Even Shaq's entire MO when talking about talented guards is "back in my day I'd knock em out the air, and they'd think twice about coming in the paint" as if that's a great normal thing to do

With that being said though some of the reasons for the offensive explosion we're seeing isn't just skill and ability. Some of it is defense in the league lost a lot of tools that allowed them to control space on the court. If they aren't able control space how are they supposed to stop offense. Another reason that feeds into the inability for defense to control space is the more lax traveling and carrying calls in the NBA today vs 20-25 years ago. It's much harder to keep a player in front of you when they have access to more of the floor in every direction that you know have to guard. Let's be real just like you can call offensive holding on almost every NFL play you could call travel or carrying on almost every NBA possession now.

If J.J. becomes a basketball coach I m gonna follow his team the entire season.

I don't know how you view the word dominant. But the only sense where the word really fits onto a Basketball player, is if someone, meaning the other Team or the defending player, has to Change their usual playstyle or stategy to mess with your game in order to keep the "dominant" player in check. Meaning, you need to change your regular game because someone forces you to do so. And therefore there are many ppl like Shaq, Prime Lebron, Jokic and so one who could be considered "dominant players"!

A hard foul is a part of the game because is now becomes mental. It makes players think before driving to the basket. That shot may not be taken now. It’s mental.

Big man waited for the last 20 seconds to make his clearest point

Shaq need to show the new head coach of the Lakers some respect

I know how JJ feels. I’ve tried explaining things to my toddler as well. It’s tough.

I would love to discuss this with Shaq bc I see him make this argument all the time. What Shaq speaks of is “Dominance” the continuation of being dominant. What JJ is describing is Dominant, where you can describe a singular performance as such. Shaq displayed Dominance throughout his career and he is recognized as the most dominant force in basketball. Dwight Howard at his peak in Orlando was a dominant player. It’s semantics but I believe it makes sense when you are clear in that fashion. Let’s talk Shaq! My uncle played At LSU the final four year and help recruit you. And I played under Ron Abernathy my brother, let’s go! Lol

Shaq is right. No need to redefine dominance. Just use the a different word to describe a different attribute

This is why he will be a good coach… he can challenge folks like Bron and Shaq respectfully…

Shaq is talking about the difference of earning a point and getting a chance to make a point. It's just a sample of what the next generation thinks, don't earn it because they deserve it.

dominance is simple to define, and its not about winning. cause if you talk about winning then its greatness. dominance simply means you can not be stopped whether u win or lose the game. there could be nights where your team sucks or the other team was just better, but as long as you could not be stopped on whatever it is you do, thats dominance. KD dominant scoring, curry dominant outside, shaq inside, prime dwight rebounding and defense, etc

SHAQ out here thinking flagrant foul-2's anormal slap om the wrist

we heard it here, shaq is cool with closelining people lmfao

So glad JJ is calling games now. Watching him call all the Pacers games this year was fuckin awesome, he has such an interesting way of explaining things Also I can’t believe Inside on TNT is ending this year…. I still don’t believe it’s real

84 finals over 90 degrees in the building and they still played harder than they do today

Yea intentional fouls are a thing, when i used to hoop, i was taught if a player gets too hot, send him to the line to try and throw off his rhythm but its KNOWN not to hurt them too badly out of respect for them. The definition of dominate is to be the most important or have most control over something meaning shaq’s right about this. The absolute force who runs the game is the most dominant by definition

Most of these players couldn't make it across half court with all they carrying/traveling in today's game 😂

I’m a Data Analyst and I want to make it clear that JJ looks at raw statistics. He does NOT look at analytics in a scaled environment, to give his analysis. He often compares players based on stats that weren’t adjusted to match with current eras. With that said, I love his takes on the game and I have a ton of respect for his career.

The NBA was definitely more physical in the 80's and 90's. The rules have changed to open up the offense so naturally teams have drifted more toward pace and space. You can't hand check anymore like you could in the past. The game is more finesse now

This is one reason I think JJ will be a good coach, he will challenge the star players. It will start out rough, but he will earn their respect.

Here’s something that is sad. Shaq is a 7’1 mvp with 4 rings and he is so uncomfortable in his own skin. I think this is because he knows the only person who stopped Shaq was himself he should’ve been the goat, but that doesn’t mean you have to discredit what guys are doing today. “Could they play with us” who cares? They make way more money today and score way more points so why would they want to play with you guys? That’s is the goal because the goal is to be an excellent player in the time that they’re playing.

Shaq is insufferably stubborn at times

"Real physicality" in Shaq's definitions is the type of physicality that get called flagrant fouls, which I think is nonsense. Physicality in basketball should be being able to defend or attack vigorously with body while not trying to punch each other in the face or being physical that is basically a flagrant foul. It's basketball not MMA. You win by getting the ball into the basket more than the opponent while also preventing the opponent from getting points, not by messing each other up. Also, let's be real, the old generation of NBA were only physical and more defensive in the paint and not in the perimeter or beyond the 3pt line, which in today's NBA, you see players getting doubled and tripled beyond the 3pt line.

@penguinscanfly3

Just like what JJ said, there's a clear distinction between fouling and actual gameplay. if being physical means fouling, especially flagrant fouls, the NBA players of today would exploit that physicality and just get free points by getting free throws. Fouling should not be the first thing that comes into mind by players when the term "physicality" comes in, since committing fouls just gives free points to the opponent. Imagine the best player on your team is "physical" in shaq's standards, and end up getting ejected, eventually causing the team to lose, is just bad.

lol Shaq don’t even know he’s own criteria 😂

Keep living in the past shaq, new rules you be out in the first quarter 😂

And the same can be said about this era Shaq most guys would foul out trying to guard players

Shaq is right, watch any JJ’s videos he uses the word great or dominant for anyone

As much as I love Shaq, he loves hearing about him being associated with the word dominant, and it makes him look petty when Dwight gets to be called dominant when in truth Dwitght was dominant when he was in Magic.

Y’all don’t understanding thag fouling is apart of gameplay if u constantly get fouled and they don’t call it, that might get one person to stop driving and settle for bad jumpers cuz calls not going their way which is still gameplay affecting someone ability to play there game, fouling prevents that

shaq been a hater for like 20 years 😂

These have been some of the best playoffs in a long time, and every game has been extremely physical. Shaq is a big strong dummy, when for the most part, basketball is about finesse and skill.
