How the hell is David Robinson "new skool" and MJ "old skool"? Check the draft years.

The MVPs he won is like the marathon WR, it sure looks nice when you get it but he would much rather have the NBA championship trophy/marathon gold medal.
give me 1 good reason why anyone would rather have a gold medal than a WORLD RECORD. the fastest time ever run by a human being on this whole planet.
oh, and make it one besides the typical "medals last forever" slogan.

F Barkley? Maybe another guard. Maybe Hakeem.

James Worthy - could run the floor, but no basketball skills - might have been a good 400m man
Scottie Pippin - we saw how good(mediocre) he really was after Jordan retired
Magic - a liability in the half-court offense - dribbled too much, couldn't shoot
plus
Patrick Ewing - might have traveled every single time he touched the ball during his career
Jason Kidd - if they had called palming the ball on the dribble, would have never got the ball to half court; also one of the worst shooters ever
Duncan?!?! Starting???? No way. Barkly and KG are better than Duncan.
Karl Malone was better, too. Not a popular guy and apparently kind of a jerk, but his talent was undeniable.

understood, the reference is to style of play, Jordan changed it
but I see your point too
Old Miler stated that Magic Johnson Could not shoot!
ARE YOU CRAZY!
Majic Johnson shot 52% for his career from the floor as
a point guard -- please apologize for this crazy/dumb commit!

karl malone usues the same rogaine products as alan webb.
My team:
Jordan
Magic
Chamberlain
Duncan
Bird
Hard to leave off Jabbar, the league's all-time leading scorer. Also, hard to leave off Karl Malone. I saw a game in Portland where he went for 40 off Rasheed, he was unstoppable. Duncan is phenomenal.
People don't realize how good Chamberlain is, very talented. Ran the mile relay at Kansas and high jumped. I heard he ran sub-50 400 meters -- can't confirm that. At 7-2 that's impressive. In his prime he would destroy Olajuwon.

he will always be known as lucious alcindor to me.
and nash will catch him, along with several other records.
