I'd still take the four you laughed at over Pippen, who was lucky he played with Jordan.

LOL

Drexler is better than Scottie pippen? 1-1st team all NBA, 2-2nd team and 2-3rd team
Pippen was all NBA 1st team 3 times and 2nd team 3 times and third team once plus 1st team all defensive team 8 times

Barkley was a good player, well at one end.

James Worthy wouldn't even be in the hoF without Magic Johnson. Never made all NBA 1st or 2nd team.

How many plays did Worthy or Drexler opt out of (in a playoff game) because they didn't get the play called for them?

Pippen was a great player on great teams. We'll agree to disagree about Worthy.

I love how the body of work of a player is suddenly not important because of one boneheaded moment.

James Worthy was a 17 point a game player that didnt rebound much, pass or play great defense. Arguably the worst modern player in the hall of fame. 17-5-3 for his career.

Yes he was better defensively. I don't remember saying his entire body of work isn't important. I just brought up that he quit on his team when they needed him. You might not think that is important, but some might.

I love how being a 17 point a game player on a team of 3 hall of famers isn't important. Averaging 21 points in the game in the playoffs isn't important.

Beasley to Wolves for 2nd round pick. Though there was an interesting note that said that the teams would swap a future 1st rounder but didnt give details. More cap space for Riley to work with and an enigma eliminated. So if they have a MLE and I guess about 5 million from Beasley they can get three semi-live bodies to go along with the other 4.

What does playing with three hall of famers have to do with averaging 17 a game? And that was in a high scoring era. Did they tell him not to rebound?

And I was never a big fan of Pippens or the Bulls. But he was a better player than James Worthy.

He said exactly what I would be thinking if I were a Cavs fan. Props to him. Hopefully Lebron in south beach will be a disaster.

We'll agree to disagree. If I was a coach I'd rather have Worthy on my team than Pippen.

The more I think about it though, the more the Knicks make sense. I know that there is a lot of handwriting on the wall that says Miami at this point but I can't imagine him doing that. To me, that would be an extremely weak move for the best player in the world.

New Orleans doesnt have the money to pay Chris Paul. The knicks have money and expiring contracts. Couldnt they package up expiring contracts along with picks? And if not for Paul, couldnt they get Arenas or any number of other second tier players? Wouldnt guys play for less to be on THAT team in new york in THAT system? And if not in New york, couldn't they do that in Cleveland?

I say New York or Cleveland but New York would be my choice as to where he goes.
