Do you remember Phi Slamma Jamma? That was the best running team in history of NCAA with Clyde and Akeem in the bloom of their youth. They were breathtaking running and finishing.
Hakeem was a gazelle in open court, especially in early days. Just watching his highlights in post does not give true picture of how amazing he was in all facets of the game. Imagine Embiid in the post combined with Clint's rim running and Giannis' finishing.
Kukoc 1998 game 7 ecf brought it home with a black jack 21 points. Kukoc lived up to expectations, and kukoc showed why he was getting more money than Scottie pippen
that stretch to end the half, damn. and lol, they showed part of the tnt halftime report and they said that the timberwolves were sold to a group from new orleans and they were going to be moved to new orleans. totally don't remember that possibility.
Impossible to do a top 10 for TWO title runs and it’s just silly the NBA even made one, especially given they never did this for another team so it’s disrespectful and the choices are just random AF! A layup by Kenny, a random 3 by Horry and finger roll by Drexler?! Maxwell’s shot, Olajuwon’s dunk / Cassell’s 3 late in Game 7 vs Suns in 1994, Drexler Game 4 vs. Jazz, Olajuwon bamboozling Spurs...should’ve been a Finals one if anything from both years.
Clutch city will never die. I love watching the players set up in the moments just before they pull it off... Hakeem let starks get set... he let him and then rejected it. Just brilliant chess play from the boys in red and yellow.
