Dream Team

I was talking to a friend,
and I was shocked that he didn't know all the members of the dream team... And it wasn't like he missed one or two... he missed a whole bunch....

Anyways, here's my super easy way of remembering the original dream team.

Two Bulls (Jordan and Pippen)
Two Jazz (Stock and Malone)
Two from the greatest rivalry (Magic and Bird)
Two centers not named Hakeem (Ewing and David)
Two who will later become rockets (Clyde and Barkley)
Two Chris (Mullin and Laettner)

Looking back, this team was suppose to be the best EVER.

- But there were no dominate center. (Why is there no Hakeem? Laettner over Shaq and Alonzo?)
- No Isiah. (One of the most dominant little guy of the 80s)
- No Reggie.

I guess first priority was getting MJ on the team.
Speaking of MJ.
I was never a huge fan of MJ.
Perfection is flawed by being perfect.
I enjoyed watching his stay at Washington much more than the Bulls.
Flawed heroes are prefect heroes.
(I still hate Kobe though)
My favourite players on the Bulls were Pippen, Toni Kukoc, Bill Wellington in that order.

Speaking of Pippen...
How is it that no one has showed interests in his services?
He can still give a good 13-18 min on a contender.
The guy plays 3 positions.
Great leadership, court sense, team defender.
There's just.... no news about this AT ALL, other than the fact that he wants to play...

Maybe people just automatically assume he'll end up with the Lakers so no one's really trying to sign him.

But through out the last few years, maybe its karma, that veterans that take a pay cut in order to win a championship don't win (With Heat last year an obvious exception. But the championship came from riding on Wade's back more than the contribution of the veterans). Malone, Payton in LA. Finley, Van Exel in SA. Of course this is probably more due to expectations which didn't properly reflect the skill level of these players during those time periods.


Lets hope he goes some where he can shine.
And lets hope if he goes to the Lakers they don't knock out my Suns
