I don't know. Sam Bowie for Michael Jordan was pretty ****in' stupid too. Can't fault the Akeem pick, but Sam Bowie???Originally posted by Ted Striker
Well, it's pretty much been proven that the Los Angeles Lakers made the dumbest move in the history of basketball. They let the greatest coach and the greatest player go last year. -
Naw, I take that back. You're right. At least with Bowie/Jordan you can argue that you really can't predict the future. But the LA LaKobe's actually did have the benefit of hindsight - the LaKobe's knew that Jackson+Shaq+Kobe+Teamwork=Championship, and probably could have led the once-Lakers to a minimum of five more championships.
I stand corrected. The dismantling of the Lakers into the LaKobe's was the dumbest move in professional basketball, and might even be the worst personnel decision in the history of major American sports.

The Lakers would have never won another championship. Simply because your equation didn't work anymore.
ACK!

But without a Superstar, his team will suck.Originally posted by Ted Striker
I tried to pick a favorite HEAT dancer but they are all too pretty.
On the basketball front, I'd like to see Phil Jackson go to Minnesota or Miami, or even Houston. He's been seen at the recent Lakers games so there is alot of speculation.
I think he will be coaching again next season.
ACK!

I agree, Shaq is the man.
For more proof look how good the Orlando Magic were under him.Comment

It's how they won the first three, though it is true that by the third the "teamwork" aspect was almost dead.Originally posted by Tuberski
