Ho Grant was the original Chris Bosh as a 3rd wheel. Dude could legit hoop but had to defer to the best ever at the time plus another top 5 player at the time.
At Clemson he was the ACC leading scorer and POY. He got buckets in college. In the NBA he got relegated to the top of the key jumper like Bosh sitting in the corner shooting 3’s.
The year MJ retired Ho Grant was an All-Star! Next year he went to Orlando to play another 3rd option to Shaq and Penny. Maybe even less with Nick Anderson and Dennis Scott.
Mike’s teammates get NO respect though. Like that nikka wasn’t getting swept out of the playoffs annually til they squadded up. Team got so nice that they went from getting swept in the 1st round WITH Jordan to being a legit contender WITHOUT him. You put ANY NBA superstar from any era on that 94 Bulls team and they win a chip. Picture KD or Steph or Kawhi with Pippen, Ho Grant and them boys.
The Bulls had a GREAT team. Mike thought it was ALL him. The media pushed that hard. Jerry was right, it takes an organization. The Bulls had the best player in the game and couldn’t even win a playoff game, let alone a series until Mike got serious help.
That’s why he can’t build teams now. He’s always ignored the importance of management in sports. Now he is management and he routinely trots out laughingstocks of teams.
