In the 80's (Magic and Bird's time) you simply could not win if you hadn't a superstar surrounded with at least 2 all-stars or another All-Nba.
In Duncan's time, it was diferent. Talent is more diluted (sp?).
Yup. It was his "infectious personality" that made him, a 20 YEARS OLD ROOKIE, be the SOLE basketball player in the history of the NBA to win a Finals MVP award as a rookie. Lol.
Dude, i don't know why you have a beef against Magic, but you do look like a fool following it.
Lol. Magic won the Sporting News "Athlete of the Decade" because he was lucky. How could i have forgoten it?
Please, please, give me more...  |
Yeah, I've always said that Magic was the greatest player I've ever had the privilege to watch. Let's face it, if Earvin hadn't had a magic johnson there wouldn't be a GOAT debate at all.
