    Re: Today's fan has no clue of the real legends

    True, I hate those kids that think this is the best era ever, others don't even come close, and don't even know nothing about the players they try to overlook. Same goes for some older people that don't recognize talent from this era though.

      Miller wanted the ball in the 4th Q. Not too many players have that in them. 4th Q=#Millertime

        This era's talent is recognized but to say Miller and Barkley is overrated then Lebron might as well be labeled overrated too.

          Reggie is one of the best shooters ever and you can add clutch to that but he's overrated sometimes by some people. If I made an all-time top 50 list I highly doubt he would be in it.

            True, but still Barkley was simply a beast, and Reggie was also great but he is/was not on Barkley's level IMO

                    Hakeem beat Ewing straight up in the Finals. after Ewing had beat the Miller's Pacers in the playoffs. I think Hakeem ranks ahead of Reggie.

                    and, sure, Reggie beat Ewing in 1995, but the Pacers then lost to Orlando. I feel very confident in saying that had the Knicks beat the Pacers, Shaq would have owned Ewing the Conference Finals. and, don't forget - Ewing missed a lay up that would have beat Indy in that series. So, if anything, Patrick Ewing had more to do with Patrick Ewing not winning a title than Reggie.

                      Riley had any sense in gm 6,he would have put blackman in and not have starks shoot 3 for 33 lol. thats why i said riley lost that series for the knicks.

                        I've been taught not to expect much of anything out of any NBA fan. By and large, we're not very bright.

                          That was game 7.

                          Reggie is made famous by the Knicks.

                          Edit: okay that's harsh. Reggie is very obviously an All-Star player. He was deadly from three point range and the indisputable leader of a 90s Pacers team that didn't really ever have a solid second All-Star. Closest to me was Smits but he wasnt close to the top centers of the league at the time.

                          Reggie carried that team. But should he have? Had he been on any of the other top teams on the 90s, he'd be a second or third option for each. That's not a Hall of Famer.

                              In Game 7 Starks went 2 of 18, 0 for 11 from downtown.
