Re: Anybody into Basketball?
As a kid, I was a Pistons fan in the Bad Boys days - after the Lakers/Celtics and before the Bulls got some pieces around Jordan.

No super amazing players but a lot of very good ones/specialised one. Where Dennis Rodman got his start. Pre-Madonna and leopard hair, he was my role model when I played. Best rebounder in the game and did all the dirty work. I just needed to grow another 7 inches or so to play his game.

Loyalties split after that, with the Canadian teams came into the league and maybe the Charlotte Hornets because of Larry Johnson, who I followed through his wild college years.

Haven't watched a game in years.

Bloke's lucky to be alive, it's only because of how the seats are that Mike couldn't get a proper swing at him

At one end of the height scale, there's Manute Bol at 7' 7" then you have Muggsy Bogues at 5' 3" don't let that small height fool you, Muggsy was one heck of a basketball player, who was in Space Jam along with Larry Bird, Daffy Duck and His Airness Sir Michael Jordan

Probably Bird based off him being MVP seven seasons in a row I think with some hefty competition

True

Oh and once I was into it for a short period and that was watching Jordan and Wilkins in a shoot off for dunk of the year or something.

Re: Anybody into Basketball?
MJ
Wilt
Larry
In no particular order
IMHO guys with the largest legacy.
Not a Brons fan, especially in this conversation, as he was so wise to call himself THE GOAT. It is really difficult to compare todays players with the legends of the past, because the 2005 no hand checking rule was such a game changer. 30yo Kobe B season average went 10 points up then. I don't want to speculate how much would MJ, Larry or Wilt average nowadays, but I know it would be a carnage.

As for the original question. It’s the only one of the American big 4 sports I don’t enjoy at all.


Seems to me games are only exciting when scores are close going into the last 2 minutes. So why don’t they just play the last two minutes?

Does anyone else think that if Mark Fowler had the sort of money Magic Johnson has, then he still might be alive?
