As much as I love the league. I can’t picture anyone in today’s league going 48 minutes with Bill Laimbeer and Rick Mahorn.

I can’t even think of anyone who could go word for word with The Glove.

I get what you're saying, but the old heads couldn't guard players of the league today. Between rule changes and evolution, it just wouldn't happen.

Bill Laimbeer not starting and barely may get off the bench in 2023.

The pace the game is played at now plus touch fouls, laimbeer would foul out so quick ha…

I would love to see guards like Dražen Petrović (RIP) and Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf play in todays era though…
if the mods were wu-tang, dean would be cappadonna

Sheed, Sir Charles, and Reignman vs today’s PF’s would be sick too. Antonio McDyess even.

Chuck would average 20 free throws a game lol he might be one of my faves next to the Dream… i would rotate between the Rockets and Suns on NBA jam..

Another early stretch 4 was Derrick Coleman. He was a solid 3-point shooter. Even posterized Shaq.

My NBA Jam sleeper was the Clips with Dominique and Ron Harper.

My mains were Run TMC and The Glove & The Reign Man.

Drazen and Abul-Rauf are legends, beautiful that their names are still alive.

Rauf has some instagram/tik tok videos floating around of him coaching, love to see it.

It's shameful how he was kicked out of the league

He had over a ten-year career in the league, well after the anthem thing. He wasn’t kicked out.

You may not like it, but this is what a 3 peat MVP looks like.

Nuggets look awesome, Jokic turning Aaron Gordon into a potential all star and maple curry is starting to get his groove back. Loving the team rn.

I’m rooting for him to 3-peat… he’s hella fun to watch imo. Not just the passing, but his footwork too.

Nuggets are killing it, Jokic out today so it's Murray who gets the triple double in the win.

Shannon Sharpe spent halftime in the tunnel with security before returning to his seat for the third quarter. He granted ESPN a brief interview explaining what happened with the grizzlies on his way to his seat

I tend to like Shannon Sharpe as a commentator, but the man thinks Lebron James is the NBA’s 🐐.
