NBA – Furax, Garnett’s cry from the heart on LeBron and Wembanyama: “The problem is…

Despite almost 20 years apart, LeBron James and Victor Wembanyama have been alongside each other on the NBA floors since the start of the season. The two men have also been the subject of a dry focus from Kevin Garnett recently.

It is a potential passing of the baton that NBA fans have been witnessing for several weeks. A figure in the league for more than twenty years, LeBron James could well leave this status to Victor Wembanyama in the months to come.

The young French interior in any case has the potential to receive this label sooner or later according to many experts. Others, at the same time, continue to live in the past.

Indeed, a plethora of observers refuse to praise the merits of current stars like LeBron and Wemby, preferring to recall the prowess of their predecessors in order to consider them superior.

This incessant phenomenon was also the subject of a tirade as passionate as it was virulent from Kevin Garnett. A recent guest on the Stephen A. Smith Show, the former interior critic criticized the attitude of these nostalgic analysts.

The problem is that today, we are so attached to the culture and history of the players of the past who built the league, that we miss the greatness that is right before our eyes .

LeBron James is 38 years old and doing things we’ve never seen before!

We have a 2m24 Frenchman in this damn league, a rookie, who gives the impression that he has been there for 2 or 3 years and who plays like a fullback!

Wilt Chamberlain would turn in his grave if we told him that a 2m11 strong winger (Nikola Jokic) who plays the pivot position and who can barely jump is the best player in the league!

Brother, we have to stop this. Do you know why, Steve?

I say it, my brother, and I will say it again. And I tell the whole world.

I’m glad we’re here. But we have to put an end to this. Michael Jordan, Magic… It’s in the past.

We need to turn the page and focus on the present. We’ve never seen anyone like Steph Curry.

We’ve never seen anything like it. He’s shooting from Mars, bro! We can’t stop talking about Jerry West.

Shout out to him, he was a great player, he did great things for the league, but we’re in a new era, bro.

Jerry West has never been able to shoot that far.

If anyone was wondering what Kevin Garnett’s opinion is on the generational debate… here it is.

If he does not compare the talent of past and current players, he invites us to leave old glories in the past in order to savor the exploits achieved today.
