codyatl Posted January 28, 2003 Report Share Posted January 28, 2003 Comments: A few interesting snubs here. No one was willing to give any love to Cleveland's two big scorers, Ricky Davis and Zydrunas Ilgauskas. They both went 0-5 among the GMs I talked to. Jerry Stackhouse also got the snub because of a direct comparison to Jordan. "Forget about the stat sheet, Jordan's the most valuable player on that team. The Wizards without Jordan would be counting pingpong balls. The Wizards without Stackhouse wouldn't be that far off the mark." Jalen Rose and Richard Hamilton also couldn't get much love. "Their both good scorers, but they don't do as much as the other guys do in the other categories. Anymore, versatility is the name of the game." Shareef Abdur-Rahim also had trouble getting any support. "He's a good, young talent," one GM said, "but I've lost faith. He should be carrying the Hawks right now. Instead, he's the first one heading for the lifeboats." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin chillzatl Posted January 28, 2003 Admin Report Share Posted January 28, 2003 and it's the damned truth. Instead of manning up and leading this team, Reef shrinks further into the background. Reef is an all-star quality 2nd man, he is not a franchise player. That is why he was and will continue to be the best player you've never heard of.
