this shyt gonna make him come out and do an interview explaining the situation just WATCH
Imagine being an agent, you and your client are negotiating an extension, the owner and GM tells you not to sign a long term deal, contracts are going to explode in the next few years and you'll be extremely underpaid about halfway through, but if you decide to sign it, don't come to us about redoing it because we won't.

Wouldn't you try to get some type of player option to make sure that if contracts do explode, your client wouldn't be stuck?

When you respond to a post with nothing but a smiley it’s like a confession that you have no rebuttal. I hope you understand this.

Michael Jordan never saw anything close to a KD, or Curry in his career, from an offensive firepower standpoint. All the dudes who were even close to those twos level spent the whole 80s beating his ass and it wasn’t till they were washed up, and the league added expansion teams that greatly diluted the talent, that he took the reigns. nikka took a season off and the Bulls were a G7 away from heading back to the big dance without him :mjlol:
Jordan would manhandle the warriors with KD

Imagine being 23 and the reigning back to back mvp who's on his way to win his 3rd straight mvp and 3rd championship calls you God.
:wow:


Larry also probably rustled a few bostonian feathers with that quote:mjpls:

Larry was real af with it.

The only thing that stops him from claiming top 3 all time status is him getting injured.

Krause is a POS, but all the moves had to go through Reinsdorf first. The decision to let Phil go, trying to trade Pippen... all decisions Reinsdorf had power over.

These guys robbed the world of another Bulls title, because barring injury I'm sure the bulls would've won it all in 99 as well.

Use to think that, but that Spurs squad the next year :lupe:

Maybe it was the change to Houston, but Pippen just didnt look right. I remember Kobe destroying him that year on NBC.

Then add the Bulls dealing with the Spurs size...idk.

Someone who doesn't get enough credit is Toni Kukoc...Jordan/Pippen gave Toni the business. He could've folded under the pressure but he did his job and never complained....Toni was a consistent 3rd option who avg and efficient 13p/4r/4a......Toni avg 19p/7r/5a/45%/44%/74% during the 98/99 season.

Even Scottie thinks Toni should be in the HOF

Scottie Pippen thinks former Bulls teammate Toni Kukoc should join him in the Hall of Fame: 'He deserves it'
“I definitely think he deserves it,” longtime teammate and Class of 2010 Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen said. “He was a huge piece for us. You look at the game today, teams have the Big Three now. Toni was a part of that puzzle for us. He was productive and deserves a lot of credit for our success.”

“It was a great journey to play my career alongside Toni, even though he came over as one of the enemies. We grew together and had a lot of success and a lot of fun.”

Pippen calling Kukoc “one of the enemies” references, of course, his perception that longtime general manager Jerry Krause wouldn’t renegotiate his contract because he was saving money to try to entice Kukoc to leave Europe. Pippen famously took his frustrations out on Kukoc with a swarming defensive performance as part of the Dream Team in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.
