Kidd did, Stockton did, Payton did actually tons of small guards keep it going for a long time... especially when they're shooters. The shot is the last thing to go. So what's happening to Dame doesn't have shit to do with how old he is. He is injured, plain and simple. He might need to adjust his shot but it will be back.
That's fair but he believes he's one shot away from being able to shoot through it. The team should keep resting him. Or maybe this is a once ever thing and the dude is ruined.
Ben McClemore was interested. There was that one 3-pointer where he refused to give up on it, and after he got an opening he drilled it.
But i could stay up all night giving the opposite example. We dont know if his abs are the culprit. He's not a spring chicken anymore. Athletic performance declines with age.
How many good games has he had all year? Is dame the only athlete in the history of the earth that is not fading with age?
If you listened to Chauncey's post game as well... I think CJ is as good as gone because Chauncey was like "now that we're healthy...". Sure he was talking about Dame first and foremost. Also Ant and Nas but if CJ is our second best player then we're definitely not healthy right now. I just thought that was a little telling about what him and Joe may have already decided regarding the big moves they're going to make.
