This one is for de die-hard basketball fans in here..

I recently resurrected an old argument with a long time bulls fan who swear Starks dunk that ball before Grant and Jordan reach...

don't forget charles smith, that boy was ah goat.... but that was definitely the best rivalry, they tried everything to guard jordan... Starks, Derek Harper, Greg Anthony, Hubert Davis, Anthony Mason, even Charles Oakley..

in my opinion dis man (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxQq1tUw6NM) was the leading practitioner of dunking on people in the 90s.

but dis other fella (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1RkanWWRFM) was my favourite player.  he had a famous dunk on ewing too.

back then wasn't starks known as a perimeter shooter? on that particular play, i think he surprised the defense in that he drove rather than take the 3.

yeah he and payton was supposed to be new school malone and stockton.   kemp had some serious drug problems that derailed his career.  as far as I could see nobody eh replicate that level of athleticism in a big man since.  not even amare, dwight howard or KG

With all the power he had...I always wondered how come the Rain Man never broke the ring..

He was tryin to make a comeback last season... but I'm assuming his weight problem never got fixed...the phrase "Stockton to Malone" has all but received a patent... but who can really forget all dem alleys the Glove throw up for the Rain Man... :beermug:
