    I could see everyone except for Maxwell and Pippen getting along with JVG. Barkley and JVG would have provided plenty of worthy soundbites.

    Barkley would have b****-slapped him.. Maxwell would have choked him to death and a young Hakeem would have knocked him out...

    It is a game-- often played by intelligent people-- called "Use Your Imagination." You don't have to play if you don't want to.

    Everybody would've hated Jeff Van Gundy, especially the offensive-minded Hakeem in his prime.

    Anyone good at offense would've hated him.

    Ahhh. edc, TheFreak -- now we'll wait for Rocket River to get home from school and put his two cents in.

    Go Lakers, right? :rolleyes:

    JVG would have loved Barkley's slow as molasses low post style. He would back a guy down for 20 seconds down on the block, just waiting for that double team to come. Mostly he was just toying with his man and knew he could score almost at will. Since the rule change, we will never see that again, but it was the ideal for JVG's limit the number of possessions game.
