I Can still remember all those bricked 3s and FTs…. No excuses , if you’re really a great.

I wish there was a way to block Lakers fans from talking on this subject. They shouldn't have had to wrap it up in 7, just admit it for once.

Why should we shut up? Game 5 had highly questionable calls against the lakers & they lost by 1. Shaq fouled out with almost 4 mins left in the game. Of course nobody talks about this & would rather single out Game 6. If it’s true that there was a directive, it was most likely to make up for the horrible officiating in the previous game.

The kings had more FTS for the entire series. & lakers had more fouls called against them.

Perhaps you should read this first

Kings lost because they crapped their pants in game 7 - at home..

Rasheed. Criminally underrated how good he was. No coincidence that he was on the Trailblazers when they were great and the Pistons when they won the title. He was great at both ends of the floor as well. When Rasheed was at his best, all time greats had a ton of problems dealing with him.

I loved Rasheed, but Webber was the better player. If you hipotetically have to pick the reincarnation of those two players (with all their attributes intact) you'll pick Chris Webber.

Maybe if you give Rasheed a Kobe mindset, then who knows...

Yes people that whine about refs and look for QANON conspiracies rather than just admit their team wasn’t good enough to win, are annoying as crap to me. It’s a major problem with sports fans today, they’d rather look for a bunch of made up nonsense as an explanation than just admit their team **** the bed.

Not crazy. I loved Sheed but Webber was really good. Sheed didn’t care about stats and Webber very much did. I’d take Webber if I wanted a #1 on a no-hope franchise, and Sheed if I needed a #2 on a contender.

Guys, can we just table this so the mods don't have to do something about it? We're talking about Webber and Sheed here, not Lakers-Kings, c'mon.

Bruh, I hated the Kings more than the Lakers growing up so this isn't about my team. Watch the videos. Excluding the Divac foul, where Webber committed a fire prior, it was a horrendously called game in favor of the Lakers. QANON, lmao. Get bent kid.

Nonsense. And Ive been watching this game for 40 years. Have a good time at your next QANON meet and greet. Maybe Donaghy will be there and he will sell you a signed copy of his book for $799. As WC Fields said, there is a Sucker born every minute. Plenty to make money off of.

Easily Webber for me. Just a much higher peak and greater potential. Yes, Wallace was a considerably better defender, but I think of him as a high-value role player rather than a talent you can actually build around.

Exactly this. It should have been Sheed easily, but he never really had the work ethic. I remember one season with the Blazers he intentionally sucked for a stretch right before the all-star selections were announced as he wanted the weekend off.

This is how I feel as well. I voted Rasheed because I was thinking of the question as better career.

I always rate who was better by their peaks. Longevity is more of a tie-breaker.
