Scottie was pretty cooked by 98, his back was wrecked and he had the foot thing. He hung around for quite awhile (and, good for him, finally made real money) and had some moments but he was never even close to the same player. He got screwed on pay by the Bulls (though he and his agent deserve some blame for agreeing to such a long deal without considering that it might look bad at the end) but they probably let him go at the right time.

Pmuch. Pippen on the Blazers wasn't Hakeem on the Raptors level of cringeworthy, but it wasn't pretty.

who do you think is the funniest 80s bull to have turned a young jordan onto the gambling lifestyle, my vote is the immortal Dave Corzine

Reminder: Isiah was such a fuckhead that his own coach wouldn't name him to the OG Dream Team because pretty much nobody else that had a shot to be on the team wanted to play with him.

hell, the owner who shared the same stadium (bill wirtz, blackhawks) said in the mid 90s "Don't you be thinking about winning any Stanley Cups. They're too expensive"

He's loving huge, he looks like he could still kick the entire league's rear end right now. I wish they put he and Jordan in the same room for that part.

The Grant family has that freaky Chamberlain gene and they're going to look like Olympic athletes til they're 70.

if the media hadn't been an issue and he had been able to go down to single A would he have been more successful? Or would it have ended the same way?

Meh. Lotta factors working against him.

His body isn't really built to play baseball, at least as a hitter. That ridiculous wingspan, that's an advantage in basketball, is a big detriment for swing speed and bat control. Scout look for wide bodies and fat asses, i.e. dudes built like tanks.

He was also missing about a decade of repetition/drills relative to his peers.

He was entering his 30s when that twitch, fast muscle response time starts to drop.

I mean, everything involving Bomani is good but this quote really sums it up for me:

quote:

I do think that in the documentary, when you’re watching the one episode where his voice never quivers when he talks about losing his father, but he starts crying when he talks about his competitive drive, that is the most fascinating insight you have out of all of it.

Lol.

Every millennial who grew up outside Texas has that one friend who bandwagoned the Cowboys because of those 90s teams. Fortunately the universe balanced itself out right as we hit the poo poo-talking peak of young adulthood by serving up a streak of heartbreaking Cowboys losses that continues to this very day.

It's one of the few signs of a just and rational God.
