dencio Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Kaya nga i specifically mentioned the 24 fouls to use on Shaq eh. The 2000 Pip was already a step slower but the '96 version surely can guard Kobe! And Pierce getting his share against Pip - only if he shot 50 times, haha! I continue to be amazed how the defensive skills of an 8-time All-NBA Defensive 1st Team honoree continues to be overlooked! KG dominating the Worm? We're talking here of the Celts version ha! He may have the height but not the bulk nor the hops (as Kemp had). Plus during this period of his career, KG was no longer as dominating offensively. But Phil would surely love that to happen. Make KG an offensive player and put the ball in the hands of the least clutch of the Big 3! '86 Celts vs '96 Bulls? Tough call between 2 teams that are among the best ever assembled. The Celts with their 41-1 home record and the Bulls with their 72-10 regular season record. The Celts will dominate the interior with their original Big 3 and Bill Walton coming off the bench. Now here is a power forward that Rodman won't be able to handle - Kevin Mchale with his myriad moves, wingspan and height. The Bulls have the edge on the perimeter and if their shooters click especially Kukoc, it will negate Boston's inside edge. I would love to watch the Pip vs Bird matchup and Ainge and DJ alternating on MJ. On the bench, i think Jax is the craftier coach compared to KC Jones. If this were a best-of-7, the team with the homecourt advantage wins it. On a one game, neutral court setting, i'd pick the Celtics winning on a Larry Bird, playing at the absolute apex of his career, jumpshot as time expires. Quote Link to comment

Anyway, I've always believed that the only guy who could have guarded MJ really well was Scottie Pippen. Long arms, taller than MJ but just as quick. Kobe could guard MJ but not as good as Pippen could have guarded him. Quote Link to comment

Eddy Syet Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Just watched MJ's induction speech... humorous ang dating sakin ng tirades niya against his former competitors. Quote Link to comment

Guest megalodon Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) Yun naman pala eh ... and yet you still claim that PP will get his against Pip. Alangan naman mazezero nya si Pierce every game. I'm not saying Pippen will shut down His Airness but MJ will have a difficult time scoring against him. Say if MJ is averaging 35 a game in the playoffs and then meets Pippen and his team, MJ's average will drop to 27-28 ppg. Now for The Truth. Say he was averaging 28 ppg then meets Pippen and his team, his scoring average will drop to around 15-17 ppg. That's my take. Edited September 14, 2009 by megalodon Quote Link to comment

Basura na pala si Kobe kay Bowen :hypocritesmiley: I just remembered what Wilkins said in his interview. No one defender can really stop him but a defender can make him work real hard for his points (Rodman was the toughest he played against). Quote Link to comment

And Dumars... don't forget Dumars! :evil: I remember Jordan naming him as the last player he'd like guarding him. Quote Link to comment
complicated8 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 go ask your idol...and ask players around him...haha What about you ask him and others? Tell me what they think. I already looked up stats about this and I certainly don't agree with you.If Kobe makes it to the HOF, Bowen should automatically be there and even before him kasi basura si Kobe sa kanya as you put it. I'm a basketball fan, a laker fan and a Jordan fan. Michael should have gotten over those things he said and be the bigger man since he is the GOAT. And Dumars... don't forget Dumars! devil.gif I remember Jordan naming him as the last player he'd like guarding him. yup, "Dumars was supposedly his toughest defender." Quote Link to comment
