Clyde Drexler's career and resume is looking pretty good compared to these guards who will retire ringless journeymen

[mastermind]

He wasn't the most technically skilled player, but you could say the same thing about almost any guard before him. Magic Johnson and John Stockton did too. Zeke changed the game dribbling wise.

PLayers were allowed to palm the ball more in the 1980s. That was the big change.

Carried a franchise and then won some jewelry as a role player. HOF career

There weren’t that any amazing SG in that era outside of MJ and Clyde. Dumars and Reggie were like the next best ones

Terry Porter>>>>Dame

Cut it the fuçk out.

Glide always been bizarrely underrated

 

[deeman]

Easy I would rather have the career of all the current guys you listed. Edit get Paul George out of there.

• NBA champion (21ppg starter)
• 3 NBA finals
• 5x all NBA (consider the shooting guards of the era)
• NCAA title game
• 2 gold medals

Got to play with his homie Hakeem twice and go to title game/series both times. Led 2 blazer teams to the finals.

Would you rather have the career of Clyde drexler, or James harden, Chris Paul, dame Lillard, Paul George, etc (today's stars who ain't gonna do it almost certainly)

nikka what shooting guards aside from Jordan

I used to hate on The Glide because they used to hype him up like he was as good as MJ, and because of the way he kicked his heels up when he shot, like he was in the freeze frame of a 90'S TV show jumping up and shouting, "YEAH!!!" in the final scene. But he was a great player

I got Clyde at #6 all-time at his position (if you count Jerry West as a SG).

Cylde could have easily played a few more seasons

Nah be was cooked after the 98 playoffs. Game 5 he was awful. Sad shyt to see

Tell us you dont know shyt without telling us you dont know shyt

 

[Jplaya2023]

It's always wild how his career disintegrated after the '92 Finals. He had one final hint of Spring that championship season with the Rockets, but he was not an elite player after '92.

Carrying a franchise, a city, a state, avia, etc... for 8+ years will do that to you. He wasnt taking half the season and half assing it on the court

Don't forget Richmond and a young Sprewell (all-nba first team selection his 2nd year in the league)
