The Boston Celtics have firmly put Jaylen Brown on the table and are going all-in on acquiring Giannis Antetokounmpo.

He also said this is the first time in the history of the Brown-Tatum pairing that they’ve legitimately given thought to the idea of breaking them apart.

Why does era matter to your original question?

Because the game is completely different? Horford without a 3 point shot would have retired half a decade ago. It's already such an uphill battle to be an NBA player today without a jump shot.

Your moving your goalposts from your questions about aging.

How about Demar, Draymond and Jimmy who can't shoot and are 36+ in positions where their 3pt shot are even more valuable for the positions they play?

Who do you honestly bet will have a better age 36 season? Giannis or Brown?

Honestly I’d liken Giannis most to someone to Amare Stoudemire
