NBA legend Byron Scott criticized the current era of basketball, describing it as the “softest brand” of the game.
Scott’s comments reflect a sentiment often expressed by former players, highlighting a perceived lack of physicality and toughness in today’s NBA.
During an interview on All Fact No Brakes with Keyshawn Johnson, Scott emphasized the differences in playing style and rules between eras.
He pointed out that in his era, players were accustomed to physical play and contact, whereas modern rules prioritize player safety and restrict physicality.
