Politics is an EXCHANGE!!!
Those George Karl Sonics squads had the Rockets number. Houston is very fortunate that the Sonics couldn't get out of the first round during those championship years.
I need to address 2 specific talking points about HAKEEM OLAJUWON...
- Thread starter Ed MOTHEREFFING G
- Start date
Charlie Broadway
Greg Ward Jr. SZN
This is a dumbass thread
Dudes in here really tryna discredit Dream. Hall of famer after hall of famer praise him as one the elite big men in basketball history and yet we have some dweebs on thecoli slandering his name. There isn't even a point to most of the dumb shyt in here. No shyt he was raw early on. Dude played soccer his whole life. Didn't start playing organized ball until college. Dude was learning the game as compared to a guy like Duncan who came in a polished player. What does him being a hothead as a youngin have to do with anything?
I bet if knew he smacked up a nikka at burger King y'all would've mentioned it too. Retarded ass brehs we know no player is perfect. But be mad knowing there is nothing you can say to take away his place in history as arguably the goat big man.

Shawn Kemp did them real dirty in 96... just watch game 4
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE IS VERNON MAXWELL STARTING FOR GOLDEN STATE
Yall need to holla @Jplaya2023 pops to get the old footage on maxwell
He was a streaky 6'4 sg with no handle
He wasnt efficient playing with the best center in the league and fetting wide open looks so how would he fare without him?

MJ chose Olajuwon over all other centers he played against. But maybe he was "datamining" too

MJ also drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison
lol what
You draft players based off what they can potentially be - you cant always account for work ethic, determination, injuries, etc
That has nothing to do with comparing guys that you played against for over a decade
There was something in here about otis thorpes shotblocking
Maxwell Thorpe and smith were solid complementary players and the rockets starting five was on par with the rest of the playoff teams in the west...but they lost to those guys. I mean read the quotes in the second article...they were talking about breaking up that crew was dumb. fukkin Dan majerle and George Karl like
but you act like it was Hakeem and 4 medvedenkos. He didn't have superstars but he had as much help as most guys and got swept and exited early a LOT in his career.
Nah breh, we aren't entertaining trolling tomfoolery like this.

Indeed, unbelievable how he could evaluate a player he played against for all of his career on one side, but be incapable of predicting how those two prospects would pan out. NBA has proven time and time again that drafting is an accurate science, step your game up MJ
He should've done predictive datamining

Theyre not bums, theyre solid role players. He didnt have a legit sidekick like all the other superstar players who were making noise in the playoffs
Malone had stockton
barkley had kj
kemp had payton
Hakeem had kenny smith
You cant name a player in the past 20 years who won a title with less help than hakeem had
The quotes from karl and majerle were typical white man trickery
