@Kenn Kenn I like the competition and the toughness. The skill is better, but the will to win and scrap and fight isnt

Yep

We have to be honest, who's responsible for today's wimpy play? The players of yesterday. All of those fights and players coming off the bench forced the league to apply rules to prevent that physical stuff. We can't blame today's players when all they are doing is following the rules. I think the league should pull back on some of those rules. Honestly, fans want to see physicality and fracases.

Meanwhile the thumbnail shows Fox has 82% body fat

Yeah, most 80s/90s looks skinny and lanky, even Shaq and Malone. Yet when they get fouled hard, they get back up right away and chaos ensues. Nowadays, players look more muscular and wider, even PGs, but when they get a hard foul, they act like their limbs got torn.

Pippen looks like an alien. Money can always buy you a pretty wife.

@@michaelbuffington4047 ...well that is the obvious thing. The Blazers were better and had the Lakers number in game 7 the refs wanted the Lakers in 100%. They didn't want Portland-Indiana Finals.

Yeah I remember he couldn't guard Scottie or Michael.

Reason why the refs call so many dumb fouls now is to prevent players from wanting to get in a brawl

Nba drama will always be in the nba

Ok, old person

The Lakers won against the Kings because of help from the referee, not overrated Fox

Stojakovic was injured in 2002. Rick Fox was a mediocre defender and a below average player.

@@georgestamatakis697 nice try, how about 2001 where Fox played 40 min per game solely to stop Peja? By himself he held him to 39% FG shooting, and 28% on 3’s. Blanketed him the entire series, didn’t let him breathe, and shut his a&& down. Are we going to forget that?

@@Johnny-xj5qu Are you refering to the series that Peja scored 20ppg? The same series that Fox with no one guarding him,ever, because of the double and tripple teaming to Shaq and Kobe had 7.5 ppg with 10% from the 3pt line? Peja had a career 19,4 ppg with 47.4% from the field and 41,8% 3pt% against Fox. He was a bum and a fake tough guy as Christie showed when he redecorated his ugly face. Choose better arguments when talking with someone that's been watching NBA since the 80's.

@@georgestamatakis697 I will run circles around you with my knowledge of the game. Did I say Rick Fox was better than Peja? No I didn’t, did I say he was a good offensive player? He wasn’t, he wasn’t good at anything offensively except he could get hot from 3 when left wide open all game now and then. On that we agree. What was he good at? Getting under the skin of players and defense. Peja was a major concern for Laker fans and had his way with the Lakers in his young career at the time. Once they met in that series, Rick Fox was a human wet blanket. Peja was absolutely terrible as proven with 39% FG shooting and pathetic 3 pt shooting for the series. Look at the game logs to see just how bad he was. Fox made life miserable for him, and made up for his lousy offense by negating Peja completely. You changed the argument to try to win... that doesn’t work against somebody who knows the game more than you do. Shut down!

Pippen couldn’t lead a team anywhere

Ron Harper stopped him--Harper's 3 in Game...? ...stopped the Blazers...

True

Not true. Phil knew Scottie Pippen didn't have that killer instinct that's the reason reason he put kukoc in. And what does Scottie do he breaks down mentally. Scotti wasn't consistent When MJ threw bricks against the Pacers and the bulls had to play a game 7 he came back like killer on the court he was-GOAT

If jordan had this blazers team he wins a ring

How is trash talking and petty fighting you’d see on playgrounds, “great basketball”??

Low basketball IQ? Bro Fox was doing all this stuff on purpose. He basically got the Blazers to focus all their hate on him instead of worrying about Shaq and Kobe. Fox was playing 15 mins a game and living rent free in Scottie's head

@@nba_fan7214 bro I watched all the 3peat games season to finals, Fox is role player as much as Shaw, Horry, etc. Fox just annoyed players which anyone can do. Fox is unathletic only can shoot 3's and some D but his IQ was just that. That's average player, where KObe and LEbron's IQ is super high. FOx offense was not that good so his IQ is lower

That Portland team was loaded and Pippen still couldn't get to the Finals.

@@davidmoody1235 exactly

@@davidmoody1235 facts jordan was still getting buckets just off using his fundamentals

@@davidmoody1235 MJ at that point was a team cancer because he still had the mindset of “Its my team”, even though at that point he was a horrid offensive player in terms of efficiency. He’d have destroyed the Blazers from the inside out being on that roster. The original point has some merit too. While MJ is the GOAT, without Pippen he never did anything, never even came close to doing anything in terms of playoff success. When MJ retired the first time, the Bulls were incredibly competitive winning 55 games without him, and being a horrifying ref call away from beating the Knicks in the playoffs. Plus, if MJs peak Bulls had been around in the era where the Celtics/Lakers/Pistons were still the prime version of themselves, he’d at best have 1 or 2 rings. He took over the league when those great teams faded away, and 4 new expansion teams came into the NBA, further watering it down.
