How many "greats" you know, won both conference championships?

[k0kakw0rld]

Kareem? Bucks and Lakers
Shaq? Magic/Heat and Lakers
Kidd? Nets and Dallas
Wilt?

Who else?

Let's all hope Kawhi adds himself to the list after the end of this season :eek:

Absolutely ridiculous achievement :applause:

[BigKobeFan]

Not lebron

[FireDavidKahn]

How many greats sat out an entire season so he'd get traded?

[Objectivity]

Not lebron

[Wally450]

Not Kobe

How many current greats have express the envy to play for the Spurs? An organization known for killing superstars potential and known for providing wrong medical diagnostics.

Not Jordan

This is very discriminatory to a lot of great players that played on one team.


MJ
Dirk
Kobe
Duncan

And it penalizes players who decide to play in a tougher conference for their entire career

Curry
KD

[k0kakw0rld]

Not Jordan
Not LeBron (still has the opportunity)
Not Russell
Not Bird
Not Magic
Not Hakeem
Not Duncan
Not Oscar

Another snowflake crying about discrimination. Either you sack up or sit down. Just don't cry about.

-MJ played with the Wizards too.

Players who don't get passes

-Not like Kobe never asked to get traded to the Bulls (he missed on the opportunity)
-KD couldn't win so he joined forces with the best team EVER.

Known for??? You're reaching for straws there boy.


The current crop of players don't have the balls to play for Pop is why you don't see that.

Damn lol

[StrongLurk]

This is a dumb thread.

Winning a chip is way better than winning both conference finals.

Gotcha. So we're counting the Wizards, I see.

KD still played his ENTIRE career in a tough conference. Ditto with Kobe.

Let's not use hypotheticals. Some players just enjoy playing in a tougher conference. That's why Kawhi is going back West after this season's scrimmage/tune-up out East.

I don't understand your point here. Did I say anywhere that it was more important than winning a ring? :confusedshrug:

The current crop of players can't afford to sacrifice their stats because they got "kids to feed".
Fixed.

Also, DeRozan may never be selected on a All NBA team ever again. It may have been his last all star appearance too.

This is what you sacrifice playing for POP. Thank God the Raptors happened to Kawhi. We would've never known what type of monster and leader he was going to be. So no, we don't give a fvck about POP's system who has failed to win a damn thing since 2014.

Players who can validate what I said about the Spurs being "Known for"
Danny Green = check
Stephen Jackson = check (more talented than the role Pop had for him)

[MrFonzworth]

Weird how he went with conference championships instead of championships just so he can include the drunken wife beater.
