(in my opinion, it's this play alone which has led people to anoint Olajuwon as the clear cut best center of the 90s and diminish Robinson's dominance)

Good post until the Pierce part :coleman: :lol

Just for the record, Pierce is one of my favourite players, but I can't deny that moment was hilarious :lol

iverson not going to the Dleague

:hammerhead: :hammerhead:

Iverson was already out of the league for two years by that point.


Anyone who knows anything about the NBA knows why Iverson got blackballed.

No, it would not have done "wonders for his overall perception".

He had already refused to come off the bench in Detroit and Memphis and been exiled to Turkey. There was never any chance of him going to the d-league.

Nick Anderson was the first to come to mind.

Why did he get blackballed and by who?

Vin Baker's first sip of alcohol.

Shawn Kemp and the lockout he spent in the buffet line.
