The one that didn't play in a light/soft, expansion era.

The dudes in the first pic are way more athletic

[TAZORAC]

Don Chambers wasn't that good, and Kevin Johnson couldn't shoot the 3.

2021 Suns would have won the championship in 89/90 if the shitty Pistons did with no scoring.

One team has the biggest choker in NBA history. This same team went life and death with the 9th seed and got beat by one man in the next round.

On the flip side, the other team took out Malone/Stockton in round 1 and Magic/Worthy in round 2 and fought a good fight with Drexler's Blazers in the WCF.

KJ's Suns upset Magic's 1-seeded Lakers (63 wins)

And KJ averaged 23/11 with good efficiency

KJ also averaged 27/9 in both 7-gane wars against Hakeem's Rockets in 94' and 95' - he was 1st option over Barkley and nearly beat Hakeem

Furthermore, guys like Worthy were averaging 30 on 62% in the 87' WCF (carrying Lakers to Finals) and led the Lakers in playoff ppg every year (87-91').

Terry Porter shot 53% on threes (6 attempts) and averaged 26/4/8 to carry the Blazers in the 92' WCF - Porter's 90' and 92' Finals runs were like Damian Lillard.

And Penny/Shaq or Kemp/Payton would get dominant stats, while Stockton averaged 21/11 with the series walk-off in Barkley's face to carry the Jazz to the 97' Finals

So every 90's sidekick was infact a dominant 1b that could achieve elite stats.... Except Pippen - Pippen never achieved elite ppg, rpg or apg in any series and had the lowest peak capability of any sidekick (not game-planned for (https://i.makeagif.com/media/3-27-2022/qrDm8n.gif)).. Since Pippen's low peak capability didn't make the scouting report, MJ faced maximum defensive attention (carried scoring load)

CP3 beating Magic?

When did he ever do anything like that

Magic was a 63-win 1 seed in 1990 and KJ ragdolled his team
