    The injury bug really bit the 78 team as they were poise to win back to back titles and the 89 team set the foundation for those great Finals runs. Both teams had very equal talent in my book, but what sways this in favor of the 78 team is team chemistry. The 78 team won well over 50 games where the 89 team didn't even get to .500.

    Can anyone who saw the Walton teams play give us an indication about just how dominant they could have been? Its a damn shame injuries tore that team apart because it looked like they were on par for back to back titles..at least.

    If the thread said Babbitt beat some brothers you all would be expecting a hate crime. I do not see why this is a big deal. Police beat their wives daily and we do not have a thread about that and that is a real issue plaguing society.

    I cannot blame the guy for wanting out of Orlando, the best talent they would give the guy was Jameer Nelson and Big Baby Davis.

    Let Olshey bet on Batum and when he is unemployed then maybe he will release he messed up.

    The dude makes too much money and does not preform enough to justify the salary. We can and should do better.

    Rebounds are over rated and so is JJ

  7. A question that could have team implications if it were to happen.

    I completely agree he could be that voice on the court we need. Lamarcus just isn''t that guy and Damian can learn some on court leadership from him. A small lineup when we need a score bad of Dame, Wes, Paul, Nic, and Lamarcus would be potent.

    I would agree Harris seems more dynamic but Harkless looks pretty good as well.
