1) Kemp
2) Wilkins
3) Miller
4) Barkley

Maravich is literally the Allen Iverson of the 70's.

Only with less success, scoring, accolades, or basically any other stats.

Aw, hell naw...

That cat would be at the top of my top 5 of my list of guys I'm glad never chipped.

Yeah, I'm still salty.

I loved his game..

My hate for the Kings blinded me to that.

And I'm actually happy he wasn't able to stowaway and get one with the Pistons.

Your team stole/cheated a ring from Webber and you're salty about it?

I'm still salty that Elden chipped with them.

2004 almost completely ruined my memory of him.

Lakers made the Kings clang 16 FTs in Game 7.

Those sneaky LArefs and their trick rims up in Arco...

Here's a question for a slow NBA night:

Name your top 5 players that never got a ring) that you would have loved to see get one, just cause you loved their play, drive, heart, etc.

My list is standard fare but here goes:

1) Stockton
2) Miller
3) Mullin
4) Kemp
5) Barkley

6) Ceballos

In terms of a complete team I wish got one, it's 1992 Blazers.

Porter
Drexler
Kersey
Williams
Duckworth

That squad was fire.
Click to expand...

Dirk and Kidd getting one this year changes it for me.

Barkley is in it. As is Reggie Miller. Kevin Johnson. Detlef Shcrempf.

1. Barkley
2. Miller
3. Kevin Johnson
4. Detlef Schrempf
5. Sam Perkins

Gary Payton #1 if we don't count coming off the bench for Miami


As for an actual team, it's the '93 Suns for me. I was a big KJ and Barkley fan. '96 Seattle is close, too.

edit: Webber is close too, for me. But i hated everyone else on that kings team with a passion.
 
etiolate said:
Don't avoid the question!
Click to expand...

I didn't.

I addressed it. Here, I'll address it in further detail:

Sacramento was undone by poor free throw shooting (16-30 from the line) and a horrid 2-20 from behind the 3 point line, and a seeming unwillingness for anyone other than Bibby to take crucial shots down the stretch.

How can you be salty that you got handed the rings?
Click to expand...

I'm salty cause those Kings thought they were our rivals...lol.

Like Shaq said, "Sacremento will never be the capitol of California..."

Rivals are LAL/5A5

Rivals are LAL/PHX

Rivals are LAL/CZZZ

The 2000s Kings NEVER sent the Lakers fishing.

The teams I listed up above traded blows with the Lakers.
 
So you are like Shaq. Obsessed with the Kings after you won the rings because you know their dirty. You can share your pain with Heat fans.

Protip: There shouldn't have been a game 7. That's the whole fix.

As far not being rivals, that's silly. They are within the same state, have faced off multiple times in the playoffs and had a brawl in a meaningless preseason game.

Don't blame us. Blame Bibby for fouling Kobe with his nose.

Sure there was gonna be one.

After the Lakers won Game 4, you guys got all the calls in Game 5 (Shaq fouled out too)

Then the Lakers (as expected with Stern-ball) got all the calls in Game 6.

You guys had Game 7 at home and still blew it for the reasons I listed above.

Blame your team and Stern if you want, but you had your chances.

Trick question? I could fill out the list with just suns players. And suns teams. And they'd be legit nominations too.

That just wasn't a nice thing to do ryutaro.

Out side of suns players. Kemp. Stockton. reggie. Dikembe. Yao.
 
etiolate said:
The Laker fan answer to game 6 is that game 5 was rigged, too.

Beautiful.
Click to expand...


the game 5 calls were just as bogus as game 6. People have selective memories, though.

Better to ignore that and remember some calls in LA other than the calls in Sac. or the missed FTs. or the Peja yips. or Vlade punchouts.

Game 7 at home in OT. Cannot blame anyone but themselves.


edit: Dikembe is an excellent choice, giri.
 
etiolate said:
Only Laker fans can be so entitled to think they deserve the saltiness from someone else getting jobbed out of rings.
Click to expand...

How did the Kings get jobbed?

Getting jobbed is having Leon fucking Powe shoot more FTs than your entire team in Game 2 of the Finals.
 
ryutaro's mama said:
Oooo, giri.

Yao is a very good choice.
Click to expand...
He may have been one of the most hungry players ever for a chip. He was willing to give up everything. Even playing on split god damn legs.

Willing to play second fiddle. Willing to kick peoples asses and tell them what they were doing wrong on the court, to get them to improve, he didn't care if they didn't want to hang out on Sunday night.

Bibby headbutts Kobe in the elbow, and salty Kings fans think the foul should have been on Kobe.

SMH Nor-Cal.

God I loved the saltiness from Kings fans back then. I was at university at the time watching that game on a small ass TV with a dormmate. When that shit ended, I went all over the other dorms to all the Nor-Cal fans who just discovered basketball and was talking trash to me for 2 weeks. We tore their Sacramento banners down from their windows, too. So glorious. I didn't even care I got a citation for being too loud on Finals week.

Had a friend who was a true blooded kings fan. He talked big while I was quiet. I bought him a 2002 Lakers championship hat and gave it to him a week later for his birthday. :D


edit: Yao was one of my faves of the past decade, but he's not high on my wish they won list because well, he never got close. Not his fault and he had all the heart/desire. Just hard for me to do it when he played so little.

At least you gave the hat to the rightful champion.

You could put in The Grinch's heart in there and he'd have more of it.

Yao had the Grinch heart that he had when he figured out the meaning of Christmas and all that shit.

Yeah, the one that broke the magnifying glass.

Lebron's heart in Yao's body. How many games does he even play in the NBA?
Click to expand...

More. He'd have never gone back to play for China and kill his feet.

But he'd also be a worse player.

He does'nt leave china. he stays there and dominates the local league.
Click to expand...

okay, this answer is better.

Put Lebron's heart in Jamarcuss Russell's body. How many times does Al Davis die?
Click to expand...

I think even Lebron has more heart than Jamarbust.
