If the Rockets picked Jordan and Akeem went to the Trailblazers, I wonder which team would have won more titles? Jordan/Sampson Drexler/Olajuwon
We may have to bench Brooks for the rest of the year. I'm disappointed in his non tanking performance.
Would you believe but I know you won't believe me but others here will confirm it.. we could have had all THREE Jordan and Hakeem and Drexler The rumor is we pick Olajuwon number one then trade Sampson to the Blazers for the number two pick The Blazers were offering Drexler and number two for Sampson We turn down the deal because we had Rodney McCray and did not need Jordan Obviously a huge mistake we could have had freaking best team of all time..
Had never thought about that scenario. Very interesting one. Always just thought about the deal to trade Sampson for Drexler and second pick that we passed on. Three headed monster of Jordan / Olajuwon / Drexler would have rivaled the Celtics.
Would have been crazy talented, but I think some people would have had to get moved. A lot of ball dominant guys on offense. Lucas, Drexler, Jordan, McCray, and Olajuwon may have had problems with bigger teams with just as much talent like the Lakers, Celtics, and Pistons
KPjr is the Kid that will become The Man! Armoni's always had the J going back to his Cougar days, but that's it. He's a good role player at the NBA level. That said, a player's value can easily get distorted on a crappy team like ours.
Nope. When we won the coin flip for first pick, the Rockets pulled out an Olajuwon Jersey that they had brought with them. If they had lost the flip they were prepared with a Jordan jersey.
