    Please. Enough with the profanity in this thread. Too much profanity dumbs down the conversation.

    Thnx.

    :cheers:

    I trough tire as cool to see them showing love for each other. That’s how it should be. They were special. And they should respect each other for what they did together.

    It was a good interview.

    I would've rather watched Bird and McHale though.

    I wonder how many more of these they can do? They'll probably have to start going to secondary stars in the future.

    Of the big names, I'm not sure how many more there would be, maybe Jordan/Pippen maybe, Malone/Stockton, Barkley/Pippen?

    There just aren't too many iconic "rivals" or teammates that I can think of.

    I watched it cuz I'm a masochist apparently.

    It was actually compelling and highlighted how big their egos are. I think our 00 blazer team and the 02 Kings were the only real challengers they faced. Nothing like what LeBron has gone against

    I think the better stories are the ones reserved for retired players, but it would be interesting to see if Westbrook could ever be humble.

    Because today's stars don't want to compete against each other. Because if they lose it will hurt their egos and tarnish their legacies. Instead, they want to team up to beat weaker opponents, because that will boost their egos and polish their legacies. It's pathetic.

    The League Office now stops all fights. Also, internet moderators have become a bunch of pussies compared to the hippie 70s. So the skill of sports fighting has died. We need to make America great again.

    That was something good about Walton while on the Blazers. He was focused on winning and dominating the opponent only. No friendly stuff. Just winning the game.

    I couldn't get past how red Shaq's eyes were during the interview. He look tired as balls.
