His NBA career was overshadowed by his collegiate achievements: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Laettner But he was a solid NBA player, just not a superstar, which most thought he would be. That high expectation vs. reality made him forgettable in most fan's minds, IMO. |
Is this a joke thread? 92, easy.
Some like to point out that Bird and Magic were washed up and were just there as names. Magic had sat out a season, but was only 32 and his prior season he his averages were 19/7/12. He could play. And Bird's back was wrecked and the Olympics were his final games, yet even with the bad back in a physical era, he still went for 20/10/7 his final season leading to the Olympics. |
