Rock's Minions/Aaron Hernandez's Thug Life/LBJ 2x Finals MVP

[fordman84]

shoulda left the last five words off

ok, I'm going to agree with him just to piss



better

 

[HammerDown]

LOL..."the only reason anyone thinks he's any good is because he was the most dominant player of his era and won a bunch of championships"

And Malone had a pretty good alternative to Magic...and didn't win a fucking thing...


and if Wilt couldn't humiliate Russell? I find the notion that the 90's Carlos Boozer would've fared any better...well...rather stupid.

It is very unpopular to render anything but dutiful worship to Bill Russell in Boston. I know that. He has 11 rings and he was a nice guy.

 

[HammerDown]

Denver's coach, Doug Moe, looked like a potential serial killer.

He was consumed with basketball like so many other coaches. It's just what he did. Like breathing.

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

Worthy was as close 2 a 1 dimensional player as there was anyway.

His main move was to hold the ball in one hand up in the air or sideways, and try to beat his defender with a first step, other than that, he had the greatest passer in the games history hitting him on a fast break for an easy dunk.

Seems justifiable to make him a top 5 player of all time when he wasnt even the best SF for one god damn year.

 

[HammerDown]

Thurl Bailey had better goggles than Worthy. But to be fair, Scottie Pippen farts shit over James Worthy in the SF department.

Bait not taken. Weak.

i think that had something to do with a Michael Jordan, more than anything...

 

[Down38st8]

Now that's taking it way too fucking far...

I see Malone as either a really really rich man's Zach Randolph or a really rich man's "in his physical prime" Amare Stoudamire...

neither of which is very far from Boozer...

 

[RedSoxWorrld]

Definitely two cases of what could have been.


Best thing that ever happened to Bard was being moved to the bullpen-should have left him there.


Worst thing that ever happened to Joba was being moved to the bullpen. Got the Yanks in the playoffs that year, but at too high a cost, IMO.

when joba first came up, he was in the pen and his stuff was electric

I dont remember him as a starter

I dont think he ever should have started, but you'd know better than me

and FYI, NOS4A2 is phenomenal

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

MAN, does this thread suck today...all this barking about how Jerry Sichsting should be in the hall of fame over Michael Cooper...?

anybody hear Popp pre-game...that dude is one funny guy.

You should do a little research on James Worthy in the 1988 and 1989 Championship.

Numbers wise? That may be true...

or anyone that knows basketball from an historic perspective

malone over russell?

epic stupidity

Playing together...stockton and malone were knocked out of the first round of the playoffs...9 times.

I disagree...

Big Game James > Brad Lohaus, Scott Wedman, Joe Klein, Bill Walton, ML, Cornbread and Otis Birdsong put together

Oh, okay. Well now I know!

Bill Russell

1958-1966

yeah....

 

[HammerDown]

I disagree...

Everyone in the West was knocked out of the playoffs in the first round 9 times during Magic's career weren't they?

 

[black francis]

Looking for the only other person that thinks Malone > Russell?

you wont find him here

 

[bgko11]

Playing together...stockton and malone were knocked out of the first round of the playoffs...9 times.

I disagree...

how about let's stick to the finals...since i thought that was where you win a title. of course, jordan had no bearing on what happened in the west.
