been thinking about the early 2000s lately... remember when you actually had to work for a basket instead of just watching guys airball floaters like it's a hobby? how did the league go from kobe-level intensity to whatever this current "effort" is? what's the most "vintage" low-light play you can think of from back in the day? i miss when players at least looked embarrassed after a bad run lmao
