    i liked pippen...as a Bull. i was excited when he "decided" to come here but overly disappointed at how he left. plus he's a d-bag in real life. but my favourite basketball memories is the 90s decade, including the bulls 3-peats. part of the reason i watched bulls basketball was mostly cause of pippen (at least for the first 3-peat) then Kukoc came along that anyone can root for.

    but Terry was it for me in recent memory and agree i'm glad the fisher experience never came to fruition. especially the way he did Scola.

    If Perry Jones III can still play/not injured, would take a chance on him now.

    He is near 7 footer who can create, switch, shoot 3 and take ball to rim.

    What the heck happened to him?

    Durant called him the most athletic player he ever saw when they played together in OKC.

    More importantly, at least we NEVER had to root for Derek Fisher in a Rockets jersey!

    I always loved Artest. Still remember when we traded for him. Terry was weird but ended up respecting him.

    I live here in Tulsa and he owns a dispensary so that might be a clue as to why he flamed out..... literally

    I actually liked Russ before the media commenced with their Westbrook dickriding campaign after KD left...they had me rooting for OKC’s demise at every opportunity the last 3 years

    I really hope this Westbrook-Harden pairing works out...Russ, Harden, MDA, and Morey can have their legacies secured with just 1 title

    The key is their basketball orchestrating abilities.

    Yeah it’s kind of sad that he won’t get much playing time now. I can see us trading him,
