This was the shyt that frustrated me about Stockton. Dude is one of the great shooters of all-time, and one of the most clutch. But dude rarely let out his killer instinct because he was always taking a backseat to Malone. Way too unselfish, almost to the point of passiveness.

He had more of a scorer's mentality, they would've had a ring.

The Jazz were up 3-2 though. Even if the Rockets win that game I don’t know if they could have went to Utah and won a game 7.

I was rooting for Barkley because I wanted to see that Barkley/Jordan rematch. But at the end of the day the Jazz were just better

Its sad cause the Rockets would have been a better matchup, and probably would have beaten the Bulls

Pippen called him fat butt, lazy, and said MJ knew he would never win a ring
They were all washed in 99. I would've loved to had seen clyde stay and mj somehow getting on that team.

I was rooting for the rockets this series. I wanted to see Hakeem, Barkley, and Drexler vs MJ and Pippen :banderas: I was :francis: when Stockton made that shot.

also, Stockton turned into the Black Mamba the last few minutes of that game. people don't talk about his scoring ability(mostly because he was never aggressive with it), but he went on a RUN to end the game.

looking back, it would have been funny and cool as hell to see the dream team members team up when they were all in their mid to late 30s. :pachaha: like if they were all free agents around 99 or 2000.

You can say that about Paul too, although he has had moments where he would be that guy. Dude can drop 30 any night. He should have did that with clippers
