“Michael didn’t beat us. Rodman did”. Please don’t let these 24 year olds rewrite history like Worm to CHI wasn’t a monumental pick up. First Team All Defense and rebounding champ when CHI got him. SA just let him go bc they were sick of his shit.
Rodman mentioned in his biography that his refusal to guard Dream (bc he was tired of not being appreciated/respected while still always being asked to bail that defense out) at the request of Robinson and the coaches in that 95 SA-HOU series where Dream cooked Robinson and sent SA home was when SA finally washed their hands of him.
In an era where the final scores of playoff games were 88-83, a player who was singlehandedly manufacturing 17 possessions for his team with his rebounding was incredibly valuable. Don’t let them rewrite history.
Jalen Brunson is absolutely incredible but I’m happiest for KAT because he achieved the impossible
he forced Shaq and Charles to admit on national TV that he is tough
Shaq was the most swept player in playoff series history. He was gifted a future Top 5 player all time in Kobe while he was in his peak prime. But Shaq knew he wasn’t really a closer. Typically guards are the closers. And Kobe happened to be one of the greatest closers of all time.
Kobe saved him more than just game 7 in Portland. Kobe is the reason Shaq has 3 rings with LA. He doesn’t get past Portland and Duncan/Robinson without Kobe. We all know that. You don’t get to beat up Rick Smits in the Finals if you don’t first get past Duncan
