Looks like we need another amnesty clause.
they should at least suspend luxury tax for the year if that's the case
With all the hoops being taken down and gyms closed around the country the suburbs are going to become so dominant in future recruiting classes, there was already a skill gap from kids that could afford personal trainers but it'll be even worse now with so many kids who might lose a year of development. If you don't have a room for a hoop you lagging behind already.
Yo the media was really shit for how they handled Michael's father's death and the gambling. That shit is gross.
By Sho_Nuff82 Go To PostTowards the lower end of the listI don't think AD belongs above anyone on that list
45. Anthony Davis
46. Dominque Wilkins
47. George Gervin
48. Bill Walton
49. Reggie Miller
50. Wes Unseld
51. James Worthy
52. Tracy McGrady
53. Gary Payton
54. Paul Pierce
55. Vince Carter
56. Ray Allen
57. Clyde Drexler
58. Manu Ginobili
I agree with most of the players in this range, but I feel like some of the placements are suspect.
Also, Iverson, Stockton, and Nash over Harden?
Curry over Durant?
Pippen over Barkley?

Before 'The Last Dance,' Scottie Pippen delivered six words of trash talk that changed NBA history
The lies.
Fishing buddy Pippen talking trash wrecked Malone's whole world.
Carr: One thing I did enjoy about playing the Bulls that was different was the city of Chicago was always trying to do something too. You'd be in your hotel room the night before a Finals game in Chicago and all of a sudden a Playboy model would show up at your door with a cake. That happened to me more than once. … They show up in a trench coat, and when they get to present you with your cake the coat comes off and it's "Welcome to Chicago!" But if you're a young man and all you can think of the night before the Finals is a beautiful girl now, that's going to throw you all the way off. It didn't work on me. It was good cake, though.
The lies.
McDermott: When you're used to someone talking trash all the time, you can learn to filter it out. But if it comes from an unexpected source, it strikes in your mind even more. So if he had expected it from Jordan or Rodman and that's not where it came from, and it hits you blind side, the lack of expectation makes it more impactful.
Pippen: That was a big game. We needed that game. I didn't know I had gotten to him until after he bricked them.

2004 Pistons are the weirdest, most random championship team in the modern era NBA. I still don't understand how they defeated the Lakers.

By Pac-12 Go To PostOn top of that, the Lakers had Karl Malone.I think he was injured by the time the Finals rolled around. Or was that Payton? Or both?
By Kibner Go To PostI think he was injured by the time the Finals rolled around. Or was that Payton? Or both?It was Malone and it was a pretty big reason why they lost
By domino Go To PostIsn't he kind of right though? Kobe tried so hard to imitate Jordan and no one wanted to play with him.
Frye too old to be saying dumb shit like this
media is a joke. This is why MAGA has such a strong following.
By aka Espi Go To PostIsn't he kind of right though? Kobe tried so hard to imitate Jordan and no one wanted to play with him.Kobe just wasn't as good as MJ to be talking all that mess.
media is a joke. This is why MAGA has such a strong following.
Players didn't really want to play with MJ either lol Like Ho. Grant who felt he needed more credit.
However, most of the ones that did liked winning.
By Kibner Go To PostI think he was injured by the time the Finals rolled around. Or was that Payton? Or both?Think he came back for the Finals... but the team really hated each and/or the triangle
By domino Go To PostAs opposed to players who aren't as good and still talk a bunch of shit to their team mates? lol Least MJ wasnt a hypocrite. He'll do them sprints with you or shoot a bunch of shots while he expects you to do the same.
Frye too old to be saying dumb shit like this
MJ was a DPOTY and averaged 5 assists per game for his career. Channing clearly a klutch kompany man playing his position even after retirement.
MJ would have had some team mates (and a coach) for a longer period of time too if Jerry wasn't such a prick. Oh well. But sure "people today can't handle someone like him." You mean someone like him would see all these players fucking around and not bringing it and call them right out on it? Sure. But you look at Magic and Rodman and you can be a party bro and still bring it. No excuse.
By DY_nasty Go To PostMJ was a DPOTY and averaged 5 assists per game for his career. Channing clearly a klutch kompany man playing his position even after retirement.the best defensive player and offensive player in the league at the same time.
By Pac-12 Go To PostMore like Channing Lie, amiriteyou can never trust a Wildcat big man
By i can get you a toe Go To PostMJ would have had some team mates (and a coach) for a longer period of time too if Jerry wasn't such a prick. Oh well.

In a lot of way it is kinda cool, gives fans an actual say in who they might get on the team. Not saying it's a great idea, just kinda cool
By Kabro Go To PostCrowd funded films is a thing.Give owners a reason to be more shit than they already are?
Why not pro athlete contracts? 🤔
By Kabro Go To PostCrowd funded films is a thing.How do you feel about the Knicks being a power
Why not pro athlete contracts? 🤔
but seriously this is certainly a violation of the CBA and wont be surprised if this is shutdown in the next week
By The Frankman Go To PostDinwiddie is under contract until 2021-22… maybe he thinks people won't remember then.lol wow
By Kibner Go To PostThey had a lot of quality defenders to throw at both Shaq and Kobe that were also positive offensive players (Ben Wallace aside).
They were also lucky to come along at the exact point when a team put together like that was going to be successful. They were like what the late 90s Knicks wanted to be.

Imagine thinking things like leadership and being able to motivate your team mates aren't important. There was a whole episode around the fact that Jordan sacrificed his game to make everyone else better. It's hard to believe the dumbest of hot takes that are coming out about him.

It's not like MJ walked around a berated his players. He would literally just tell them "hey, you can't be walking around here and playing like that" and then get into what needs to be fixed. He was indeed constructive, as well.
If anything, from all that's been said, Kobe may have taken things a bit far in that regard. But even then, the people who said it were probably too soft.

By reilo Go To PostMJ is on tape calling Scott Burrell a bitch and a ho come on now 😂Was he wrong?
By blackace Go To PostWas he wrong?No but lets drop this "MJ was respectful" shit
By reilo Go To PostNo but lets drop this "MJ was respectful" shitNobody he was respectful just he didn't just call you a lazy fuck he also busted your ass in practice and tried to make you a machine like him
By blackace Go To PostNobody he was respectful just he didn't just call you a lazy fuck he also busted your ass in practice and tried to make you a machine like him
By AlphaSnacks Go To Post^^^I love you Alpha but come on

By reilo Go To PostI love you Alpha but come onMaybe Alpha meant he was being respectful and maybe he meant he was kicking their asses and making them play their roles he needed. I am not going to put words in his mouth but I took it as the latter
By pilonv1 Go To PostNow he is fucked... because if he loses to an old man then he will never recover and if he beats MJ they will trade him to the moon..
Dead man walking.
He's also poked the bear. If it was just Bridges v Jordan that's one thing, but Jordan with a point to prove now? He's not only just going to beat him but he's going to embarass him.
