I know Espn 100 is wack. But I would rather let them vote for top 100 than these clown experts who think just because they played the game their opinion somehow weighs higher. Most of these former (especially veteran) players just keep on hating the European players and try to minimise their game by saying that the game has gone soft. Its just ridiculous they can’t give them their flowers.
Bias goes both ways. Harden got a lot more flack for his playstyle than Luka does. NBA media goes easy on the European guys.
I don’t entirely disagree that NBA media goes easier on the Europeans but I think that’s in part because the Europeans are easier to get along with. Although I do not the Harden vs Luka narrative differences. That flack was more fan driven though in Harden’s direction.
