Bob Cousy claps back at JJ Redick

As far as I can tell, one of Cousy's great contributions to the game was the ability to dribble with either hand. He's definitely up there in the all time great list with Steph Curry and Ja Morant.

Sports are about talent, folks vastly overrate athleticism. Guys like Cousy with tremendous court vision and basketball instincts would be all stars in any era. Same with Oscar,Maravich, Stockton, Nash.

Also there are plenty of subpar athletes in todays league that still play significant minutes.
Joe Ingles, TJ McConnell. The Sixers roster was full on non atletes this year. A guy like George Niang who played significant minutes for us this year would get destroyed by a prime Rick Barry or Elgin Baylor.

How would Babe Ruth or Ty Cobb do in today's MLB, when they would have to face 3-4 pitchers throwing in the high 90's every game? Plus those guys didn't have to play at night and there were fewer games.
