Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf Appreciation Thread - Throwback, Nuggets Snapping 72-10 Bulls 18 Game Win Streak

this video Immediately reminded me of the recent Phil Jackson comment

Phil Jackson Compares Curry to Abdul-Rauf

That comment was kind of off base to me. The only comparison is dominating from the perimeter.

Curry is 6'3 200, Abdul-Rauf was 6'-6'1 prolly 170 soaking wet. Curry is damn impressive, but I hate the narrative that he's some midget dominating the game.

I remember watching that game. The Nuggets built a huge first half lead on his back and I was just sitting there like "Is this nikka gonna miss? "

 

[Wacky D]

those old black jersey Denver teams were such party-poopers.

I never got over that sonics series.

You lost me.

Where in Phil's comment did he say anything about size? He just said their quick release, crossover, style are similar.
And Curry is not no 200 lbs breh. His playing weight is like 185 at best.

How nice could Denver had been Mutombo young Mcdyess and Rauf Stith was a player too

Didn't they have Robert Pack and Laphonso Ellis on the squad too?

Think we had a thread about Mahmoud last year on here. The man was the truth and a bit ahead of his time. In today's game he would thrive with the way the NBA focuses on the 3 point shot so much now.

 

[Raw Lyrics]

He was so talented...I would have loved to see him an Iverson play against each other. I believe AI came in a year after Abdul-Rauf left.

I remember watching this game.Bulls were getting washed by like 25 came back tied it on a pippen and 1 then lost

cub fans don't have the right to stan the 90s Bulls, owned by the Sox owner. Stick to your gay cac team who hasn't won since 1908 You people are born losers and you will die that way

Jalen rose always says he is the Blueprint for Stephs game...

Call's Steph the remix to him...

Mahmoud was a player ahead of his era, he was really built for the modern league, but he was definitely an underrated player.

He was in Sacramento during AI's rookie year. He played the whole season, and some of the season after too. So, i imagine they played each other at least twice...not a ton tho, obviously.
