All players have good and bad match ups, and this includes superstars. For example, Shaq got cooked by Hakeem and Rick Smits. AD seems to hate being guarded by Draymond, but Embiid does very well against Draymond. Gobert gets pocketed by Jokic.
What are some interesting match ups that you guys know about, maybe for your team or for your favorite player? As a Warriors fan, I remember Iguodala for some reason would do very well against Dame. Curry would do very good against Jrue Holiday, but he always used to struggle against Avery Bradley for some reason.

Shaq getting cooked by Hakeem is WAY overblown. Shaq put up 28/12/6/2.5 on 60% shooting in that Finals. Rockets were a MUCH better team with a much better coach.
Iguodala is the reason the warriors could beat prime LeBron.
More recently, (and i’m surprised that no one in r/nbacirclejerk hasn’t picked this up) it’s Luka Doncic and Devin Booker.

Sabonis looking like prime Shaq against AD.
I used to love watching young Embiid destroy Drummond back when he was grabbing 20 rebounds. Now he backs him up.
Jaylen brown stole Lukas lunch money in the finals
Tatum and the playoffs
Sabonis sons AD every time the Kings play the Lakers.
Kyrie has a good matchup with anyone
Trae Young and New York
Mario hezonija owns giannis
Jrue been locking down Booker for a while
Aaron Neismeth --> Jalen Brunson
