I'm not going to watch the video sorry.
I would like to point out that I said
All of the games of 21(1 on 1/cutthroat/insert whatever you called it.) growing up I played with basic street ball rules.
(They even uses street ball rules in 1 on 1 aka 21 for video games don't they? I don't remember)
And with those rules.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetball
or
(No referees are employed, so almost invariably a "call your own foul" rule is in effect, and a player who believes he has been fouled, simply needs to call out "Foul!", and play will be stopped, with the ball awarded to the fouled player's team (free throws are not awarded in streetball))
Curry would get destroyed by LBJ and Jordan due to they would be able to play through contact far better than Curry will ever be able to.
but I guess if we're talking about something that took place in the early 70's we're also going to use those rules.... So Curry would still get destroyed.
Hand Checking
Contact by the defense on a ballhandler that impedes a player's speed, quickness, rhythm, and/or balance.
Pretty sure this rule alone would allow anyone with any hand strength whatsoever to guard Curry.(Hi Doc Rivers)
I mean the change to hand checking was specifically designed to assist smaller-framed players like Curry right?
I guess it shows how rare of an athlete Muggsy Bogues was
Foolish choice to not watch the video. It's vintage video of the best basketball players in the world playing a one-on-one tournament in the NBA. Jo jo White loses to Bob Lanier in the final.
Screw your playground rules. Jordan et al would have to play by those rules that were instituted by the NBA then. Or they would have to have some new variation of rules. There wouldn't be any call your own foul bullshit. There would be a referee. There would be fouls and foul shots. This ain't the park it's the NBA.
