None of these are unpopular opinions just modest moderate bullshit.
[QUOTE=Im Still Ballin;15019871]I guess he was busy switching on to 1987 Michael Jordan and blocking his mid-range jump shot.

Oh, would you look at that, another block on His Airness from the same game. Mike tried to take it to the rim this time.

Shaquille O'Neal was not the most dominant player of all-time, rather he was the most toxic that cost his teams more titles than he won.
[/QUOTE]
Agree with this.
Gary Payton is the most underrated player of all-time.
The 96-98 Utah Jazz were the second best team of the 90s and I'm not talking about out of teams who didnt win a chip, I'm talking second best period.
Robert Horry should be in the Hall of Fame.
[QUOTE=Phoenix;15019858]It makes you wonder...if they win 91-94( so 4 straight), then lose to Houston....do they still win 96-98? Like, how much did MJ being away for 94 and most of 95 preserve his legs for that 2nd run? Or maybe they win 96 and 97 but have nothing left for 98. Interesting to see a 'what if' scenario where MJ doesn't retire and what that means for the championship picture from 93-98.[/QUOTE]
Does Horace Grant leave if MJ never retires? Assuming Chicago has him for 95 it would have definitely made a difference versus Shaq and Orlando. Ditto against Houston. If not though? Then I really don't see how they overcome Orlando's frontline, but if they happened to, its just to meet Houston and overcome theirs. Tall task. Like you also mentioned, its pretty difficult to imagine a reality where Chicago isnt exhausted and running on fumes.
Assuming MJ never retired, I wouldn't bank on them making it all the way to 98. Much less winning it all (as they were constructed).
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;15019877]While very impressive, it was one accomplishment..
Was he ever even an allstar? I don't think you can put someone in the HOF who was a role player his whole career, despite the reliability.[/QUOTE]
He was voted in once to karl malones dismay so not really

For what?
Mike D'antoni's system made every point guard look better than they actually were

Who were some of his PGs besides Nash?
I think the impact of starplayers is overstated by almost everyone to some degree and thus I think every star player gets overrated. Even Jordan, Lebron etc.
Nobody can win alone, but people pit players against each as if they did.
[QUOTE=L.Kizzle;15019956]For what?[/QUOTE]
For showing up after the all star break
[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;15019973]For showing up after the all star break[/QUOTE]
What about before All-Star Break?
Robert Horry has hit only 3 clutch shots in his career. Big Shot Bob is pretty mutch exaggerated.
One in Houston vs Spurs
Lakers vs Kings
Spurs vs Pistons
Robert Horry was the main piece in the Barkley to Houston trade and stunk up the joint for half a season. Was so bad in Phoenix they asked for Ced Ceballos back lol.

It’s called a unpopular opinion, not a ridiculous statement that has no fundamental place even existing in the game.
Yea let’s make basketball a different sport. UNPOPULAR!

Pretty sure Harden ran point a couple of years in Houston

His numbers being inflated and/or overrated isn't exactly an unpopular opinion.
