fuck those 2 especially Malone
Did the Jazz bear retire too? I hated that fuckign commie.
Fuck Antoine Carr too.
Fuck that entire crowd and every other jazz fan.
Fuck Jeff Malone. Fuck Brown fuck Brevin Knight
Watch that video a few times. That one Stockton backscreen on Robinson at ~18 seconds was one of his cleaner backscreens of the series, tbh. Malone was pretty dirty, but mostly because he was strong. Stockton was the player who went out there trying to injure you. Thankfully he wasn't quite strong enough to get it done most of the time, although I do remember he knocked out DRob with a back injury during a game once.
The best thing Rodman ever did as a Spur was deliver that cheapshot on Stockton, tbh.
Yes, Stockton hurt people over the years. And he used to love the elbow/forearm to the ribs. Give him credit, I guess, for being sneaky enough to get by with it. But he was a dirty bastard. And I don't say that about many players.
For the record, two of the most famous times when Bruce was supposed to have extended a foot under a jumpshooter, the guys were shooting 3's and launched so that they came down about 2-3 feet inside the arc, after letting the ball fly. (One was Ray Allen, I forgot who the other was.) If you have to give a guy that big of a cushion to avoid getting accused of being dirty, you might as well say that you can't defend a 3-point shooter. I'm not saying Bruce never got under a shooter, but the two cases they always use as "proof" are bullshit.
Fuck David Benoit and Felton Spencer too.
Great video. Shows what a bitch Stockton was.
Malone was somewhere ignoring his daughter.
Greg Ostertag was a Shrek looking scrub ass bitch.
Stockton was as "dirty" as Bowen imo
Bruce was hustle-dirty. Stockton was evil-dirty.
It doesn't help that their franchise is backed by the Mormon cult.
That video reminds me how happy I am Stockton and Malone never got a ring. It also reminds me the type of horrible teammates Robinson had to deal with (:lol @ Negele Knight and Vinny Del Negro backcourt).
Tbh, I respect those Jazz teams. Hell, the Spurs pretty much modeled their franchise around those Jazz teams. But those playoff losses to the Jazz aren't easily forgotten. Even four championships later, IMO.
Negele Knight Sleepy Floyd PG combination....
Yet Robinson was soft for not winning...
From the AP report.Quote:
NOTES: Jazz Hall of Famers Jerry Sloan and John Stockton were in attendance Saturday ...
Yep, that's about where I call it. They were both utter bastards to play against who would use any trick they could get away with on the floor. They wouldn't deliberately try and injure someone, unlike say Karl Malone (see Drob, Isiah Thomas, etc). And once the game was over, it was over, and they were men about it...
And personally, I don't define that as dirty play. If the ref will let you do it, go ahead, so long as it's not going to injure someone ... Getting your forearm/Elbow into somebodys ribs... is take it and dish it back out territory. Bruises are price of admission.
Dirty is Raja Bell clotheslining Kobe. Reggie Evans grabbing some nuts. Rondo throwing Hinrich into the scorer's table. It's where you're trying to hurt someone, not play ball.
Wasn't Malone a Laker scrub though?
You guys thinking Stockton didn't try to injure are being ignorant...
I was only in 5th grade when I first started watching basketball. Back then it was pretty much Western conference = Jazz and Eastern conference = Bulls. Stockton was probably my favorite but even I could tell that he was dirty player. And I still kind of miss Bob Costas' as a broadcaster and the NBA on NBC theme song.
The Spurs exercised the demons of the past 13 years ago, so I don't want to dwell on it. Instead, look to the future when the Jizz still won't be shit. LOL Hayward 4 points. LOL @ anyone who thinks that team has a future consisting of more than first round exits.
