Some of the things said in here are just.....ridiculous. Being the face of the NBA is the only thing that's been overrated in this thread. Kareem/Hakeem/Moses Malone/Oscar Robertson were never the face of the NBA and all of them were at the very least top 15 players ever.
And it's not just...
...you're not understanding what I'm saying. I never once said anything going against George Mikans career, his skill, what he did for the game and I do agree he deserves more respect then he gets. All i said was he didn't popularize the sport. Yes he was the most popular person in the game, but...
The NBA wasn't popular until Russell and Wilt. It didn't have the exposure of baseball or football or boxing until the late 1950's, AFTER Mikan retired. Yes he was a great big man and the first real superstar of the game, but the NBA wasn't anywhere close to popular. Yes Mikan get's respect but...
The only stacked team Kareem won MVP's(2) with were the Bucks. The Laker teams he played on in the 70's were far different than the Lakers of the 80's, and he won his last MVP award during Magic's rookie season. Just saying his 70's Lakers where he won 4 MVP awards were far from the stacked...
Other than Jordan and Mikan, what player carried the NBA by themselves ? And would you agree that Kobe was ONE of the players carrying the League since the early 2000's ?
All due respect to George Mikan, pioneer and 1st superstar in the NBA. But just because he was the First doesn't mean he belongs in the top 10. You give respect and that's where it ends. There's a reason why you never see him in anyones top 10. Same with Bob Pettit and Elgin Baylor who had a...
This thread is crazy and entertaining at the same time.
Kobe isn't top 5 all time. Jordan/Russell/Wilt/Magic/Kareem have that list on lock, and it's not changing anytime soon. Anywhere from top 10 to top 15 is pretty accurate, and there's no shame or problem with that. He has the respect of...
Vid is Funny and Sad at the same time. Worst part is at about the 0:50 mark....he thinks they're laughing with him, when in reality they're laughing at him
Kobe was gunning for Finals MVP that year, but shot a horrible percentage(38%)and took way too many bad shots with Prince playing great Defense. Outside of the clutch shot he hit in Game 2, he was off the entire series. IMO that's the top reason The Lakers lost as you could tell he and Shaq...
appears that way, doesn't it?
having just paid tuition, rent, and waiting on my tax refund... I'm just biding my time. I like to hold my cash for as long as possible in case of emergencies.
I JUST mentioned y'all on twitter. I'm copping those Jays when I pick up my check.
I'm going to Vegas on the 16th but I can't order them til the 10th, do you guys have faster shipping options, or do you think they'll ship to cali in 4 to 5 days?
