Barkley, Malone, Stockon, Gary Payton, Ewing, Penny, Reggie, etc.


so many dudes either had to wait until jordan was gone or retire without a ring yet were actually great, hall of fame worthy dudes [MAYBE Penny minus the injuries]

    think about how good half these dudes was


    stockon was one of the GOAT point guards, his assit numbers were crazy

    malone has scored the second most amount of point in league history, at about 13,000 points.

    Reggie was the GOAT three point shooter

    and this ? jordan just came through on some

    Nah, no NI66AS!!! ?

    dude was the definition of a pur epoint guard. he kept his opponent working extra hard to check him and play against him and made plays effortlessly

    thats somethign steve nash needs to learn, since the one thing people hold him on is his liability as a defender

    it's crazy how good they were yet never won. as a pistons fan, that tayshaun prince block was amazing..but probably was the definition of reggies career...right when he's about to end it, he gets the ring smacked out of his fingers


    and malone has to be salty...joined the super lakers and ost to a east team with no A list star...? watched his daughter get a ring before him, and SHE PLAYED FOR DETROIT

    I like stockton and malone but they had no chance the Bulls were just way more athletic...But that suns team should have won Barkley,KJ, Thunder Dan...and they had O.Miller and Richard Dumas before they ? their careers up

    i feel you...i jus think that utah as state...sucks. but that suns team...dam they had a few weapons. the only thing about the utah team is they had 2 chances...2 back to back chances...but it was the same outcome. 5 teams had chance...seattle, LA, portland, PHX and utah...twice and they couldnt capitalize

    That ? Jordan average 41 points on the Suns. Real talk that 98 Pacers Team took the Bulls to the brink Jordan and Pippen both drop 40 points in that game 7. Jordan willed those teams to victory.
