Please any one at ESPN long time fan
What is the background track playing from 5:46 - 7:56 please I need to know I'm a serious mc
the stat that makes me hate the jazz is they were the only team from 1970 until the 2018 cavs to lose a rematch in the finals between the same two teams like the 72 73 lakers knicks 78 79 bullets sonics 84 85 lakers celtics 88 89 lakers pistons 2013 spurs heat and 2015 2016 cavs warriors and the 2018 cavs did not have kyrie as we know so it was not the same team so I give them a pass....what is the jazz's excuse?...they were the same team....they actually lost a game by 1 point smdh..in a rematch?...give me a break...of these 7 times to be the only one not to win a ring is sad....they were the 60's lakers lol...and 2017-2018 cavs of their time...and 02-03 nets
@@razkable That's some real history of the game I didn't know about. Well done.
This is one of the most badass ESPN playlists out there!!
Where's the Trailblazers feature? You got to have one. They were one of the truly elite teams in the early 90s who had a great chance to win.
Gotta love the fact Karl Malone's daughter Cheryl Ford got two WNBA rings in Detroit while Bill Laimbeer was her coach...
Dexter's Finest can’t love the fact he wouldn’t claim her or her twin for almost 18 years and let’s not even talk about his son that made the nfl...
Yeah. Under the underrated Bill Laimbeer.
And Malone would go to the Finals in 2004...and lose to the Pistons. Oh, and did you see Russell get posterized AGAIN in a clinching game? This time by Ben Wallace in the 3rd Quarter of Game 5, 2004 NBA Finals. Wow.
Lmfao Bill laimbeer dirtiest thug in NBA history with nothing but a big mouth and could not back it up that's why he ran around every season practically the whole season with the mouse under his eye@@josephwhiteside2739
Don't let Stockton's athleticism fool you of how great he was. Dude can shoot, pass, steal, and he was a great teammate. He's pretty clutch as well. Definitely top 5 pg for sure
Mr Quarantine you should check out rustybucketz vid on why stockton is overrated
uoɹɐɐ Stockton was not overrated by no means
@@justthisguy1948 Yes he was. He put up ridiculously inflated assist stats from mostly very basic passes to Malone.
Talia Mason so was he not supposed to pass to him at all and just chuck up shots???
@@loganh7843 That's not the point. The point is most of his passes were very very basic. Not ones most players cannot spot like you regularly saw with Nash, Kidd and CP3 and LeBron today. Not only that the system he played in made look much him look much better than he really was. He never even averaged half those assists before the system was put in place during his first few years at the Jazz. Also in College he was more a scorer that could actually shoot pretty well.
This "Bulldozed" series is really fun, especially now that "The Last Dance" is reminding us of the Bulls. It's important to remeber all the other great teams in the 90's
no it's not. it's not important at all lmao
@@CamJames it's important bc it establishes the quality of opponents michael vanquished. people pretend lebron is the goat bc "his competition is harder" when in reality jordan was just so good you forget how all the other teams faired
Stockton is the career leader in two of the five statistical categories in NBA History.
@GNB And played in Utah, the league's smallest market. A market that had a low payroll. A market that couldn't even get Derek Harper to report after they traded for him.
But, hey, Magic Johnson playing on loaded teams in one of the biggest markets obviously points to his superiority as an individual talent.
Great logic.
@@keplerconcept5287 *laughs in having Karl Malone as a teammate*
@@davesize2222 Amazing how playing with Malone is supposed to discredit Stockton, but Magic playing with literal all-star squads in a terrible conference isn't an indication of how easy things were for him based on roster talent.
Asinine.
@Jared Taylor Stockton was certainly better than Magic in the 1988 playoffs, where he outplayed him over a 7 game series.
The Lakers escaped, but that returns to the point: Magic played on loaded teams in a massive market.
If individual performance dictated outcome, then Magic's play against Stockton in 1988 should have led to LA being eliminated.
@Jared Taylor As far as skillset, Stockton was better than Magic in: shooting, especially from range, quickness/first step, defensive ability (a blowout) and arguably passing/ballhandling.
Certainly the numbers support all of this, including the ballhandling/passing numbers that show Stockton was a full assist better on A/TO ratio, even while 1) playing with much lesser overall talent outside of Malone and 2) spending the majority of his career in halfcourt sets, rather than the wider, easier lanes that Magic enjoyed in the open court thanks to Showtime and overall roster talent.
The reason these subjects aren't discussed is because Magic is treated like a figure of worship -- and therefore is never really analyzed as far as skillset -- and Stockton is either ignored or brought up as a figure of derision by lying shills like Stephen A Smith.
But ironically your post drives that home: your entire post amounts to little more than blind worship or Magic, and offhand dismissal of Stockton.
Lame.
The lack of respect from Stephen A Smith against John Stockton this week was completely absurd!
Why. He was an incredibly overrated player that put highly inflated stats based entirely around the system was is in. He also only has the most assists of all time because he made some of the basic passes to Malone throughout his career. He didn't ever make passes that most players couldn't spot.
Maybe because he is white??? Lol.
Stockton was better passer and in his prime.. he was more suitable for dream team then isiah.. but i'd take stockton over isiah too
Talia Mason he was great because he always made the right play. A fantastic passer and defender
Stephen A Smith is a shill for Mark Jackson. Jackson played with the Jazz in Stock's last season, and many believe that his antics drive Stockton to retire.
Jackson hates Stockton, and was deluded enough to believe that he was the better Point; Jackson attempted to turn the locker room against Stockton, and insisted that he should be the starter.
This is the type of trash that SAS supports.
Bomani is PERFECT for this kind of format. I love hearing about basketball history through the eyes of 90's hip hop heads. That bit with hockey jerseys took me back! More please
I know right?
If by perfect format, you mean blatantly lying in your reporting, then ya this guy is perfect.
Bomani is under utilized at ESPN .. his opinions and the way he tells story’s .. especially old b-ball stories needs to be used more
Facts man
As a Jazz fan who was at the 98 Finals, this one still hurts
Will Bowden jordan pushed off
Ya but footage of their era i wanna see
@Hal Jordan no he didnt theres clear footage of him not pushing off, stay mad though
@ripseeze nobody would call that one either
too bad you guys didn't get to the finals in '94 and '95. the jazz were better than the rockets over that decade-plus period. bad timing
I miss the 80's and 90's NBA eras . 😩
The Jazz in '97 beat The Rockets with Hakeem, Drexler & Barkely who were all the same age as MJ (33-34 yrs old). Then in '98 Jazz swept the Lakers who had 4 All-Stars that season (Shaq, Kobe, Eddie Jones & Nick Van Exel).
They also beat the Spurs in 98 with Duncan and a still-productive Robinson, the only season those guys were more-or-less equals.
@@ja8ames yup the Spurs were real good that year Duncan & Robinson both averaged over 20 ppg. Next year they won the championship
Hakeem, Drexler and Barkely didnt age as well as Jordan did tho, especially Hakeem and Barkely so it is completely different to having beat them in their prime.
@@Arthur-yv6px yes they werent in the peak of their primes but they were all All-Stars that season. Barkley was 5th in the NBA with a 23 PER, Hakeem 7th 22.7 PER, Drexlers was 19.9. Hakeem 7th in scoring with 23.2ppg. Barkley 19.2 ppg, 13.5 reb & 4.7 ast. Drexler 18ppg, 6 reb, 5.7 ast, 1.9 stl. They all definitely fell off the next year. They were kinda like the 2012 Celtics. Alot of people thought they would make the finals. They won 57 games and thats with Barkley missing 29 games & Drexler missing 20. They might have been the #1 seed If they played 82 games.
that team took the bulls the distance..in 98 everyone remembers the 54 point game but the other 5 games were so close and in 97 they pushed the bulls in 5 games too...the fact the bulls won 3 games in 97 by a combined 8 and 3 games in 98 by a combined 10 points is nuts in that era from 96-98..the jazz legit lost 6 games by a total of 3 points per game...1 three pointer each...thats so sad
I remember Karl Malone wrestling with DDP in WCW
Against Hogan and Rodman
Good ol days.
It's me it's me it's DDP
bruh that last line “not on my watch” 👀💀
Karl malone crank Yankees
5:36 "Ok Google what is there to hate about Karl Malone."
Google: "How much do you want to hate him?"
Karl Malone might be the biggest dirtbag in Sports History.
Joseph Whiteside why??? Nobody is perfect. As long as he did the right thing eventually, that’s all that matters.
@@jrsmith1998..... Pedophilia doesn't just disappear if you do the right thing later
😂😂😂
@John Smith imagine having a kid w a minor then later deny and abandon the kid, yeah nobody is perfect but some people are real piece or shits 🤷♂️
Bomani Jones is my new fav. I wish there was an easy way to find more of his videos
Right im tryna figure out were to find a playlist of this series is
Bomani has a couple podcast as well. The Evening Jones. & The Right Time with Bomani Jones
Bomani, this is your niche. The swag you bring to these videos makes them, it's the urban vibe we all love to hear when used properly.
Nick young face
What's swag? Yall youngsters are so annoying.
But yet people will say Jordan played against team's that would be average in today's era lol those people are funny.
That Jazz team would be average in today's NBA. Not nearly enough shooting and spacing. Stockton averaging double figure assists actually hurts the teams offence significantly as does Malone's post up game. Context is important.
Auc 2.0 those same Jazz were kicking and sweeping Shaq’s lakers out of the playoffs. A laker team that had 3 or 4 all star
@@rayleigh8 after being a Jazz fan for over 25 years, I'm glad we are being talked about.
Auc 2.0 well the only truth in what they are saying is due to the defense being so relaxed now. I think the teams from back then would do better now then the teams from now playing back then. These modern day guys are too week mentality.
no one ever says that, like ever lol
Why didn't they win? "The mail man don't deliver on Sundays"
Props to Bomani!
I loved the Jazz since 1991. Seriously: My favorite team. Wish they woulda got a decent center once after Eaton, though.
This was so interesting and awesome to watch. Strictly facts💯 . Please do another one🙏
Great Series, particularly enjoyed the editing, finding the right pics and shots to go with the narration.
Meanwhile I still see ppl saying Jordan beat bums for his chips 😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️
Yea, it's funny. In the finals he beat magic and worthy, clyde the glide, Charles Barkley, peyton and Kemp, Stockton and the mailman twice. Last time I checked, all them dudes n the hall of fame.
LeBron is actually the one who beat bums in the playoffs, not Jordan
HALL OF FAMERS FACED IN PLAYOFFS
Jordan : 71 HOF
LeBron : 60 HOF
LeBron played effectively 5 more years than Jordan because Jordan broke his foot one year and came back with 17 games to go after retirement
then you realize LeBron spent 10+ years in a weak East with absolutely no competition while Jordan faced Larry Bird Celtics, Isiah Thomas Pistons, Reggie Miller Pacers, Ewings Knicks, Barkleys 76ers, Dominiques Hawks, the Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning, Kendall Gill Hornets, and TWO teams that were highly touted as the next great dynasty after the Lakers and Celtic: the Mark Price (All Star), Ron Harper (All Star), Brad Daugherty (All Star), Larry Nance (Slam Dunk Champ), Hot Rod Williams Cavaliers and the Orlando Magic with Shaq, Penny, Horace, Nick Anderson and Dennis Scott who set record for threes
not bums but mj,rodman.pippen,phil vs stockton,malone, sloan. he should've won
Neither Jordan or LeBron played bums in the finals..People say MJ played bums in the finals not the playoffs,but I never got into that ... Barkley,Clyde,Payton, Malone etc were no bums, but in Brons case KD,Steph,Duncan,Dirk,etc,were no bums either...There are fans that like one more than the other,but do it without downgrading the other players greatness
@Wilt Chamberlain GOD of NBA what!!!!? 72 game win season
Wow, that footage at 5:45 is literally the only footage or even photo I have actually ever seen of John Stockton as a rookie wearing the Green jersey.
This is going to be a great series. Looking forward to more episodes.
This us currently the best content on ESPN aside from the last dance I swear. The music is smooth too.
0:46 nobody gonna talk about how they got my man Chuck eatin a slice in this pic?! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you, Bomani for discussing the Jazz accurately. As a lifelong Jazz fan, I appreciate the respect you’ve given the Jazz. This is the most honest depiction of my home team, ever!! Good journalists do still exist!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These are the absolute best. I love it.
Bomani Jones delivers. Dude has me in stitches!
Malone is underrated. He didn’t have enough of a team. Replace Stockton with Gary Payton or Hornacek with Reggie Miller and they would have won a championship or two.
Hw will be doing a ‘lebron’ thingy then..nothing to be proud of
Not really; he went to the Lakers and did nothing. He just shone in Utah because it’s a small market with no other professional sports, at that time. That is why he won zero championships.
As an lakers fan and someone who takes pride in being a role player when i played ball (Boards, defense, hustle, and screens) Solid smart great screens...nothing dirty...simple back screens an opponent cant see coming. The best is when you lay someone out on a screen they dont see coming. Love it, 90's basketball
Jeff Hornacek was a really good shooter. Phoenix should've traded Dan Majerle instead of Hornacek to get Barkley.
but majerle was younger more physical and athletic, and they had already signed ainge so the thinking was danny could offset some of jeff's shooting, made sense at the time
You buggin out
Dan Majerle was great for those Suns
GABRIELA ACEVEDO good idea 💡 majerle instead hornacek
Juicy Smooyay majerle sucked against Houston in 94 tho
Outside of the 18 games Stockton missed in 1997, these two missed a COMBINED total of 11 games for injury in 18 seasons of playing together.
That stat is ridiculous just to think about.
For real though. In a physical era too. Nowadays you couldn’t even touch a guy no more without a foul being called and the narrative that we have a “Better, much improved, and advance medicine, workouts, trainings, and treatments,” and yet it seems like players fall left and right due to injuries. Add in the fact that players LOVE to “Load manage” too nowadays and yet they STILL get injured lol.
Players didn't take days off in those days. You basically had to have surgery to miss time. Mental strong era.
That last shot was just so smooth so silky and perfect all net
This guy really makes this series great
Stockton is underrated because the league is always about scoring and athleticism. Stockton wasnt the most spectacular player. He was just effective... maybe more so than any other player. And that shows in the Jazz' record for about 20 years.... they are consistantly great. Isiah was great but why on earth would I take him on point over Stockton when Stockton is better in almost every important stat but scoring... plus he was a great teammate, selfless and had a crazy high basketball IQ... I actually think he could have scored a lot more with his great shooting skills but it just wasnt necessary because they played so effective... they just took the easy high percentage plays.
Love this series.. “a Google search will tell you about Karl Malone and not just about basketball”
Not a good person, off the field. Dead beat dad, and hitting on Kobe’s wife.
@@felipegutierrez8249 dead beat dad but at least he EVENTUALLY accepted those kids. Very late and does not excuse his previous behavior but he didn't double down on the trash behavior.
Can't say he made up even a little for the Bryant thing though.
Love these videos so much
This was so good how come ESPN don't miss 😭😭the narrator is elite
90's Bball is next level. Think how great Lebron is, how crazy the splash brother are...Kobe. MJ and the bulls were legendary. Wish i was older so that i could fully appreciate thier run.
These are great 👍
"The '90s Jazz had 3 Hall of Famers ... at exactly the wrong time" Of course because the Bulls had 4 hall of Famers and arguably the greatest ever in coach and player.
That's no excuse. There have been several times in NBA history where a team with fewer HOFs beat a team with more
Rodman was a really good roleplayer. He played good defense but had no offense and his rebounds were considerably less in the playoffs. Also Pippen was injured for much of 1998
Ik Jordan pip and Rodman (only on the second three peat) but who’s the fourth?
Tony Wong and tell me Rodman played like a hall of famer with 2 points and 7 rebounds in 97 and 3 points with 8 rebounds in 98 against the Jazz
@@emerybmusic Phil Jackson, and Rodman was the best 1 on 1 defender in the nba, he is a 6' 6 and Shaq said he hates playing againsy him
What's the music at the begining of this series it's awesome I want the instrumental
Perfect story telling voice for sports
You are a BRILLIANT Narrator bro
5:37 That was uncalled for. 😂
Can't believe they actually cancelled bulldozed the man actually deserved to have a job in ESPN
love the narration
That dunk at 3:57 was NASTY omg lol
Great video. As a Sonics fan I hated the Jazz, and as a basketball fan I hated the mailman
Ditto!
They only came out of the West twice though so you can't blame it on MJ, 90 had a weaker western conference than most of the 80s and 2000s. Even if he wasn't against MJ in the final, he could still lose the final. Especially when your superstar, Karl Malone, shoots worse in the playoffs.
92 94 96 made wcf and 95 lost to rockets very close
It’s amazing Stockton and Malone are #1 in assists and 2nd scoring and Jordan by himself and the Bulls beat them
Actually, people forget the Jazz had one more solid chance to win a championship in '99 when Jordan was retired and the Bulls got broken up. They finished tied with the Spurs for the NBA's best record again in that lockout shortened season but then inexplicably were upset in the second round by a much younger and inexperienced Portland Trail Blazers team. Incredibly frustrating to watch for Jazz fans like myself in those days...
karl was MVP again that year too. Kind of the forgotten MVP year of that decade.
the jazz came very close to forcing game 7 in both finals vs the bulls. the bulls used MJ as a decoy, anticipating the double team... and it was kerr who hit the game winner, followed by the pippen steal, and the kukoc dunk... in 98, when stockton hit the 3 with just over half a minute left, MJ quickly drove past russell for a layup to cut the jazz lead to 1, then stole the ball from malone, and hit the GW shot over russell, scoring 45 of the bulls' 87 pts. that is why MJ is still the #1 goat. he can score more than half the team's points and WIN.
old heads are ridiculous. No need to hate on another mans greatness. Mj had second best 2 way player in the league behind hakeem,had the greatest rebounder and coach. Kerr has highest 3pt % in history. Mj was never underdog in the finals.
Is there any way I get some of this music? Especially the track at 3:46! Thanks!!
The 90s Utah Jazz were just as good as the San Antonio Spurs of the 2000´s trust me they really were! They had to go against Jordan and The Bulls, these 90s Jazz Teams would have won at very least 1 championship during the 2000s or even more!
The Jazz were nowhere near as good as the Spurs were. You must mean the pre- Duncan David Robinson Spurs
Not really! Spurs actually won championships.
Rest in peace coach Slome
I was crying when Malone basically knocked that dude out with the elbow 😂💀
Hal Jordan this made me laugh more 🤣😭😭
Great video
Malone was a beast. He would crush rims if he played now.
People also have to remember, the last 3 finals Scottie averaged 40% from fg and got absolutely carried offensively with MJ
Corey Appiah yes, that’s the stat Jordanites love to quote, but you don’t repeatedly threaten retirement for a single player who isn’t absolutely integral to your winning. (68% career with Pip, and 48% without him)
Just like MJ told Payton in 94, that he would win a ring with Pippen(in the almost Pippen for Kemp trade) because he makes EVERYONE around him better.
Heck, we could have seen Jordan “carry” the bulls to a ring in 98 without Pip. IF, Jordan hadn’t “vetoed” the draft night trade of Pippen for Tracy MacGrady.
I recently watched the full 1991 series between Chicago and Detroit and was surprised how subpar Michael was offensively compared to his usual self, I actually thought Scottie was the better player in that series. Scottie was having a great series in 1998 Finals but had an awful Game 5&6
@@cjwrench07 Pippen was no more than solid 2nd option on a multiple Championship winning team. He only ever proved 1 season of been truly solid without him at the Bulls which was the 93/94 season. But even then he was average in the 2nd round of the playoffs against the Knicks. The following season he wasn't able to come close to replicating that very impressive form which also happened to be the season Horace Grant left to join Shaq and Penny in Orlando. Funny that. Was he important, absolutely. But that was more so during the 1st 3 peat with Horace Grant and BJ Armstrong. During the 2nd 3 peat however he was a huge liability offensively during the playoffs. That is why Kukoc was so important as the 6th man coming off the bench. At the end of the day he wasn't ever a player you build a Championship winning team around.
Doctor Cthulhu 2 healthy years pre Pippen, 0 Prime years pre Pippen, MJ played and y’all act like MJ lost 10 years until mvp Pippen signed with the Bulls. Shits hilarious. He was Brad Sellers backup. Had to be developed slowly. Kukoc was Bulls closed when MJ retired not Pippen.
Jordan avg like 40% vs Sonics
So we just gonna ignore them putting Chuck up there wit the pizza in hand 0:46
You my boy, Bomani!
Sloan, Stockton and Malone.....THAT just rolls out the tongue like it was meant to.
Well as long as we are counting hall of famers the bulls had 5 on that team: Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, and coaches Jackson and Winter.
If only Wilkins stayed when the Jazz drafted him. I wonder what that would have been like.
Edit: Revisiting here. Tuesday Lt aft - August 31, 2021.
They would've been another Bull's team unstoppable.
That definitely would have been a game changer.... Dominique, Malone, and Stockton it would have been Chicago and Utah every year.....
Bomani is Killin these 90's docs. He's the best!
2:06 Load Manage in Peace
4:50 "Remember that time The Mailman split Isiah Thomas' head open?" LOL
I'm not even a Pistons fan and I HATED Malone after that....he basically threw a truck - his elbow and backside - at Isaiah.
Zeke used to regularly COOK Stockton ALL of the time...
Pretty hard contact indeed, but come on, it was Isiah Thomas. Not like the dude had spent years at that point having it coming from someone or another...it just happen to be a planet named Karl Malone. In that era of NBA basketball, if you went inside the lane to the basket, you may get hit or you may not, but more than likely you were going to get hit. Being the player that Isaiah was, he should have known this. Knowing how he is, I'm sure he did and probably did it on purpose to try and start a brawl or something to that effect.
@@JasonthePunk I don't have a problem with contact, just the WAY it was delivered...The 80s Pistons would lay you out, but they were at least smart to make i look like they were going for the ball while their goal was to slam you...Malone goes for him sideways AND elbows him in the head...Malone was also known for being cheap shot, but also, he only went after little guys...
@@twilitezn He also once legit knocked David Robinson out with an elbow. He threw elbows all the time. Big guy, little guy, I don't think that it mattered much to Malone.
Jerry sloan 🙏🙏🙏
0:45
Of course they have to use the picture of Barkley eating a pizza
who else remembers Karl Malones electric green/yellow gum he would chew in the late 90s
4:15 "A trampoline named Mark Jackson"
Haha Bomani Jones is cool personified. Reminds me of the late Stu Scott
Whenever I think of a pure pass first point guard, I think of John Stockton.
I was a barkley fan. When stock hit that jumper i got crushed.
What is the background track from 5:46 - 7:56 please I need to know I'm a serious mc
The jazz were a very dangerous team. They gave the bulls a run for their money 2 years in a row at the finals against Jordan and the bulls.
The lil young kids from this generation think that Jordan played in a weak Era but actually he played in a way more competitive Era than what you see now.
That Jazz team was a beast, Malone, Stockton, Russell, Hornacek. MJ just goated them.
Crying shame the Jazz didn't take win the rematch with the Bulls. They had it and blew it.
The infamous Push Off. What a way to win eh ;)
John Stockton should have been more selfish on the offensive end. He was capable of being a 20 point scorer with his shooting
It wasn't his personality.
If Stockton was black he would be in Stephen A top 10 all time
Jay Styles lol 😂 good one he still top 3 point gaurd all time I put him 2 after magic
Pshhttt he still lead the league in assists. He gotta be top25
Jay Styles if he was black he doesn’t make the Dream Team, guaranteed !
Huh
If he were black, he would not be underrated at be on everyone's top 10
That background instrumental is 🔥🔥. Anybody know the name?
Cara, seu ódio pelo Utah é nítido. Jeff Hornaceck é ídolo porque jogava pra cacete, você destacou o "dirty" do time mas todo time jogava assim nos 90s.
As I die hard Jazz fan I can confirm that everything he said is accurate.
Adam Aarif Why do people hate Karl Malone exactly?
@@kabagemayannick5097 I'm headin to the Google
@@kabagemayannick5097 Impregnated a 12 year old while he was in college. Yeah he's terrible for doing that. Stockton paid for Malone's karma.
EDIT: He also made a pass at Kobe's wife. Vanessa said "what you are hunting for" after noticing he was wearing hunting gear. He said to her "I'm hunting little Mexican girls." He's a scumbag through and through. This was in 2004.
Not that hornaceck is overrated..
Don't forget being handed the worst NBA finals loss of all time by the Bulls. I remember watching that on TV and iirc Dickie Simpkins had a dunk in that game that sent the bench (MJ, Ron Harper, Pippen) into fits of laughter as they absolutely OBLITERATED the Jazz in truly embarrassing fashion on the biggest stage in pro BBall
Karl Malone and R Kelly are still my heroes.
I'd rate the late 90s Jazz teams ahead of most teams that have won championships in the post-lockout era. And of teams in current times I can't think of any that would be able to beat that Utah team in a series.
Several of those teams would destroy Utah
Hornacek was most DEFINITELY not overrated. Quite the opposite. Go take a look at his stats in Phoenix, Philly and Utah. The man should have gotten way more acclaim, but he wasn’t exciting, so he was not a fan favourite.
Anyone knows the instrumental playing at intro??
I laughed a little when I heard 18 seasons. Some of today's guys can't even make it a straight 18 months of their contract without some sort of injury or drama.
Its rare to see someone on espn who actually deserves their job
And they canceled his show. I’m still mad about that
Respect My mind yeah me too I feel like part of the reason the show apparently didn’t reach the ratings espn were looking for is because high noon was somewhat of a younger version of pti and having them both on the air at the same time instead of having high noon replace pti was a mistake. Even though I enjoyed both shows at about the same level I feel like the similarities when it came to the format of the shows kept some people from tuning in consistently because they would rather stick to watching tony and michael debate instead of bomani and pablo
Can anyone tell me what the song sequence is in the first 20 seconds of the video?
Can someone plz tell me where I can the soundtrack
1989 was the year that got away for the Utah Jazz. Could have made it to the finals and instead got swept out of the 1st round by the 7th seed Warriors
@Wilt Chamberlain GOD of NBA Mark Eaton was an all-star in 89'. Only yr Stockton/Malone had a 3rd current all-star if my memory's right? Eaton actually had a decent left-handed hook shot; not saying he was a great offensive player, but he was to blocked shots what Sally Fields was to assists. Their offense never revolved around a center anyways. Experience? Sally was in her 5th season in 89', the Mailman in his 4th. Even in Sally's 1st 3 seasons as a backup, she was getting tons of experience playing behind 1x all-star Rickey Green, and she had had 4yrs of college. They were both all-stars that yr, and both in their primes.
Malone had already become a decent free throw shooter, was more athletic than later on in his career. Sally led the league in assists for the 2nd consecutive season, something she didn't do in either of the Jazz' 2 trips to the Finals later on. She was amidst her apex 17/14 campaigns in 89', at age 27. The only point guard who may have been a tad better than Sally in 89' was Magic, and that'd be only cause of the rebounds. Thurl Bailey was a better small forward in 89' than anybody the Jazz ever had at small forward in the Stockton/Malone era. Darrell Griffith that yr was the best 4th option they ever had, averaging 14ppg, about what Hornacek would avg as a 3rd option in Stockton/Malone's late prime. The mid to late 90s Jazz may have been just a hair better than the 89' Jazz, cause they had a deeper bench, but the 89' Jazz had their best ever defensive team, actually better than what the Bad Boy Pistons had that yr, who won the championship. They only won 'only' 51 games, but it was the yr pre-expansion 2x over in Stockton/Malone's prime, as there were a lot of talent-heavy teams that yr. The Warriors won 43 games that yr, and actually had more firepower than your avg 7-seed, but a 2-seed still shouldn't lose to a 7-seed. The Jazz lost because they failed to control the tempo against a vintage Don Nelson fastbreaking squad (so much for 'fastbreaking doesn't work in the playoffs'). It was an upset any way you slice it up.
the nba needs to learn from how the nfl treats their league’s history. most people who love football don’t say things like saquon would get 3000 yards if he played in the 70s so sweetness is overrated, because if you talk football you have to know what you’re talking about you can’t just check sports reference but with the nba it’s marketed towards kids, that’s why the nfl will always be on top
Why they do Charles like that 😂 00:43
Malone and Stockton really fell short...15 playoff appearances no title. This really hurts both legacies.
Oh okay Sloan was the 3rd HOF’er
