@terryfinisterre@manuuuga@morelikemensa Now do Games 1-5. KAJ was the MVP of the league and was having an absolutely monster series before starting an injury in game 5 that ended his series. Magic had the legendary Game 6, KAJ wasn't even in the building for the game so Magic got the FMVP.
@Buddha_bless007@morelikemensa Shaq was out of gas by the '06 Finals but they don't make that 2 year run that culminated in a title without him. Remember they were on the doorstep of the Finals the season before.
@MrGoodlyCooks I've been just shaving my own head since COVID. Treat myself to a full hot shave by a barber a couple times a year but it feels like I got out of the need for regular barber visits at the right time. Stories like yours are becoming more and more common.
@Jdago92@mza17@SherwoodStrauss No one expected Wade and Bosh to be corpses in the Finals either. Shit happens. At that point Spurs were better. It wasn't a pick 'em. They were small favorites. Heat got 2x defending champ and some LeBron love in the line. Probably should've been bigger.

@channingfrye has some absolutely wild stories from his time with the Knicks π³

@chriscfore@Troy_Lake Stop sucking then? πI loved Carl's in the 90s. It's been garbage for awhile now. Long before the minimum wage hike. Too much competition nowadays to be pumping out mediocre quality and no value. It got worse and more expensive. Not a good combo.
@DionWaiters44@TAizenberg People thought Duncan was a dork. So no, inside the barber shops people weren't talking about Duncan but that doesn't mean he wasn't quietly building a best player in the world level resume. His 5 year peak 99-03:
2x MVP
2x Finals MVP
5x 1TANBA
5x 1TAD
Legendary 03 playoff run.
@JayWitDaFitted@coolblu1914@BushAbillion Right? They'll say "he's the ultimate competitor and will slit your throat over anything but oh yeah he also has zero interest in being considered the GOAT or not" while he also has it all over his clothes and shoes. Whaaaat?πππ
@MisterSuave69@forumbluegold So again why does using stats mean you don't remember something? That makes zero sense. How do you think I knew what the stats were gonna look like? I knew already because I watched it! Just like I knew Kobe's were too. Y'all act the stats don't come from the game.
