As a Sonics fan at the time, that could have a been very stupid trade for the Sonics

3 second round picks. Desperately needed in 92. LA got into the playoffs on the last possession of Gm82 vs LAC to sneak in over HOU who lost to the lousy Mavs at home, which LA also needed. Sedale won that LAC gm w/ the GW and won another at MIA at the buzzer in Nov of that season. Unfort, the NBA finally blocked all of my sh after 14 yrs otherwise I'd post my link.

Dude stretched his jersey out, too. Always pudgy, but he was usually planted out at the arc which was shorter for 3 of his seasons. I saw the clip of him beating the Nuggets at the buzzer one year w/ a trey.

Joe Ingles. Seems like a snail but his game is super good. For some reason it feels like he doesn't belong there but he keeps on producing.

Watch on YouTube

As much as I hate KG, it was a game 6 where Min was up 3-2. Had he swung back he'd be out for game 6 and probably be out for game 7.

That's his and your story and y'all are sticking to it.

KG got revealed. He didn't have to swing back. No brow beating no poking out his chest, no finger pointing, no "acting" like he wanted to step to Peeler to fight.

He literally bowed down to Peeler, a guy 7 inches shorter but has much bigger fight in him and accepted he was the Alpha. KG got neutered on National TV and forever on YouTube.

Kobe swung back, Reggie Miller swung back. KG mushed Tim Duncan in the back of the head because he knew Tim never tried to be that guy. KG tried to be that guy and got exposed twice by guys who are "that guy".

Don’t forget the time Aldridge slapped KG at the back of his head for trying to be a punk.. KG didn’t do anything afterwards ..

Shane Battier on the Rockets. Dude was arguably one of the smartest defenders I’ve ever seen. Helped the Rockets almost knock off the eventual champion lakers

Heck yeah as a kid I always called him Shane good play Battier (I wasn't very clever :lol:

) and would trade for him in my NBA live and 2k franchises. Good pick friend.

Ricky Rubio.

I think he would have been a multiple Allstar and possible MVP if he was coached by Mike Dan Toni.

Can´t say. Thought I will choose Kyle Korver, but... Nah, we all know he was in fact a superstart. Player of the month, the NBA All-star, at least ten times snubbed of his deserved MVP trophy... This guy is a LEGEND.

I loved 2019 Serge Ibaka so much as a raptors fan. He wasn’t the best player or even the top 5 on the team but damn if he didn’t play with unbelievable heart to help us win that chip. He was always ready to throw hands which made things more entertaining

I still heart Shane Battier.

He's who I modeled my game in pickup basketball after. The original 3 & D machine.

Good player -- better person. :usa:
