On that team, he's probably the 2nd best defender. Yea, Shaq controls the paint, but if you play with today's rules, Shaq would get killed in some PNR's. Having to go against two post players would be to his advantage as he could try and stay on the interior. If TD or Hakeem was hitting their pick n pop from 18-20, Shaq would find himself in no man's land a lot. KD's defense and ability to guard 3-4 positions is actually pretty valuable within those constructs. Stockton just kills that team though. I guess you throw him on Magic, who takes him down on the block and forces a double and then you run the other 4 around the horn on rotations..... More I think about it, more I lean towards the Magic team unless the Jordan team just goes nuts from downtown.
True. He can guard three positions, but they're just going to switch until they have Kobe or Lebron on Stockton. Of all the all-time greats, why Shaq chose that little weasel is beyond me.

Try reading that again, Chuckie. Look at this phrase from the AP: "... didn't refer to ..." is not the same as saying "... didn't use the exact words ..."
You can refer to sexual harassment without saying the words "sexual harassment".

Seriously you guys are winning, you don't have to lie and read poorly and make up wild accusations.
Just win. Just take the W.
Quietly watch the system crush and smash yet another woman who dares speak up against a powerful man and enjoy the thing you want to happen happening. You don't have to make yourself such an obvious ghoul by gloating publicly.
Muh Bernie.

Amazed how Rodman could party like a rock star and still play his ass off. Dude was a physical freak.
And fuck Isiah Thomas. And China.
It probably happens more than we know. Hell, Harden lives at the strip club and that doesn't stop him from traveling his way across the court to insane numbers. Didn't Dwight Howard eat the equivalent of Verne Troyer in candy bars a day? Some of the stories had Mike staying up until 4 am in the casinos. These guys truly are superheros. Imagine having a buffet of beautiful groupies to satisfy your every desire night after night. It's a wonder they get any sleep at all.

Bird is just next fucking level, and every time someone is surprised that this contradiction of an NBA player is considered one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of sneakers, it makes me smile. YouTube videos of him and Magic passing is better than porn. Bird, Magic, and Michael, the holy trinity.
Also, this doc has made me pine for NBC's coverage of the NBA. It's been almost 20 years since the Mouse took over and it's sucked every step of the way.

The organization should have taken care of him after a few championships and he never should have signed a long term contract. Both are true in this case. Hitting free agency after the lockout was good for him though as he cashed in later in his career. He earned over $100 million in his career, so nobody should feel sorry for him.
He did lose most, if not all of it by being financially irresponsible. Vince Young has nothing on Pippen.

30 For 30 On Michael Jordan: The Last Dance
in Basketball
I’m with Barkley on this. It’s easy to point fingers at Krause, but the real villain is Reinsdorf. That dude could’ve put a stop to this animosity at any point, but didn’t because he’s cheap and didn’t want to pay anyone. Krause was a good GM, a slovenly asshole, and ultimately a patsy for the other Jerry who only gave a shit about the Whitesox and is a tight-fisted dickhead.
