Nah Could make shots all day if left open but that’s about it, he couldn’t really create his own shots and would get burned by quicker guards. I loved Vinny but he and AJ were not that great.
Small Ball worked for Phoenix against the Spurs and Rockets. Because they would pull Robinson and Oljuawon out of the paint. and AC was good at guarding those two and staying out of foul trouble.
@@tylerriley2587 I feel the Suns were the toughest matchup for the Rockets (w/Thorpe at PF) rather than the Sonics with Barkley's versatility while Kemp was more of a traditional PF. The Sonics actually averaged a much lower shooting % (low 40's) against the Rockets when Thorpe was there compared to a few years later when they had Chucky Brown as the starting PF (over 50%) which is why I don't buy the "Rockets were fortunate they didn't run into the Sonics" myth. That version of the Rockets was a top tier half court defensive team which was the achilles heel of the Sonics.

@@Daewonnni That is simply not true. Out of all of the NBA players during the 90s, David Robinson had the least amount of help. His best teammates, besides Dennis Rodman and Tim Duncan, were Sean Elliott and Avery Johnson. Robinson also led the NBA in multiple advanced stat categories, for several seasons from 1990-96. This just goes to show how valuable he was to the Spurs. We already saw what happened to the Spurs in real life, when Robinson was injured, in 1997.
Also, suns played small ball in the second half of this game, and KJ was getting easy assists and layups because he drew the defense to him, and AC Green was able to guard David without getting in foul trouble @@mikewilkins2030
@@damonsonnier34This is true Backcourt of AJ and Del Negro I mean compared to other backcourts they weren’t that great and it didn’t help that there was little chemistry between Rodman and the Spurs.
Some else already said it but, this is basketball! The NBA is an unwatchable mess when compared to this area. Today the court lights up 30 different colors, there area so many uniforms you don't even know who is playing, the shoes are so bright you feel like bug to a zapper and they don't match the uniforms! IT'S A MESS and no de fence! These guys worked for every shot 2 or 3 and if you went in for a lay up there was a good chance you were hitting the floor.
You right about the shoe colors. It was cool when teams would coordinate their shoe colors together like when the bulls would all wear black during the playoffs. But everyone has a shoe deal (whether a Us company or a foreign company) so that changed everything. You got players like reeves in LA with them ugly ass Chinese Pro Wings out there on the court 😂
I felt the Suns were actually the toughest matchup for the Rockets (w/Thorpe at the PF position) rather than the Sonics because other than Barkley who was a low post player everyone else on the team including Barkley at times would constantly move around playing small and the Rockets had to really keep up with them. The Sonics on the other hand had forwards that usually played in the low post and with Thorpe/Herrera there the Rockets had the defense to guard it effectively. The problem was by 96 both were gone which meant the Rockets had to do a lot of double teaming, that's why the Sonics shot such a high % in both the regular season and postseason against them. The Rockets were able to solve that problem the following year adding Barkley and Kevin Willis to the team.
Green was efficient, but the Suns really needed a defender or rim protector. Had they managed to land Rodman instead of Spurs, Barkely would have won a chip.
This Spurs team was a huge dissapointment losing in round 1 to the Jazz. The following season Negele Knight, Antoine Carr, Dale Ellis and Coach John Lucas were all gone AND Avery and Sean Elliot returned and the Greg Poppavich (General Manager) era began.
I miss when the game was played like this. It was worth watching every time.
This is basketball! Big men were beast!

A rare Saturday NBC regular season game
Chuck called the Phoenix media "assholes" at the end was funny. The man has never changed at all.
Vinnie del negro was underrated AF. Lot of names I loved back in the 90s.

David Robinson won his matchup against Charles Barkley. Kevin Johnson also had 16 assists, and it made up for his inefficiency from the floor.
KJ had a lot of points. And AC Green.
Robinson just had more “help”. Having Rodman join got him the MVP.

When Rodman was a human ;)

But one of them would’ve been playing out of position due to the fact they were both power forwards.
