Cavs/Wizards top 2 rivalry of the 2000's :coleman:

A grocery bagger was MJs biggest rival?








:roll::roll::roll::roll:

The bulls and Knicks and then the Knicks vs the heat and pacers were the rivalries of the 90s.

They met 3 years in a row 2006, 2007, and 2008. Better than John Starks :lol

no it's mj vs ewing while pippen is outplayed by x-man and Stark's

pippen's 16 on 40% nearly caused loss in 92'

Ewing, who is behind two Bulls all-time, was the "rival" per 3ball. :lol

Jordan had no real rival. Not even a Durant to his LeBron semi-rival.

magic, shaq, bird > durant

or barkley and malone

drexler, dominique, penny, payton/kemp > pierce, dwight, dirk, 14' kawhi

MJ fans trying to manufacture rivals. Isn't it "anti-MJ" to bring MJ down to the level of Ewing, Malone, Drexler, and even Miller? I am hardly a MJ lover and even I find that disrespectful to MJ. :lol

Jonathon Starks

[QUOTE=Shooter;14041372]Jonathon Starks[/QUOTE]

similar player to pippen - all-defense with spotty offense (19 ppg), although better floor-spacer than pippen....

Starks was basically a better defensive version of rookie curry, but a couple inches taller with dunk contest athleticism (curry was a 19 ppg player for 3 years before his 3-point attempts increased a ton in subsequent years).. all facts

[B]Peak Starks in 93' and 94':

18.1 and 5.4 apg.... all-defense ... aka pippen[/B]

okay he wasn't the shooter rookie curry was but his offense was similar (19 ppg for curry in three straight years before he started taking more threes)
