    He is an unbelievable shooter. He even doesnt need the board and he wasnt even tall. He is a sniper.
    And not only a great athlete, he did stand for what he believed and gave up NBA to make himself a legend like Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X and Dr King.

      +U Kneecorn Curry has done this 4 games in a row now. And several other times this season, and several other times other seasons. I'm biased because I didn't actually watch Abdul-Rauf play, but you can't compare a guys best game to what another does semi-regularly, especially when Curry is the reigning MVP, reigning champion, probably next years reigning MVP, having one of the best winning and statistical seasons ever. Plus Abdul-Rauf was playing with a shorter 3pt line. Curry is pulling up from the parking lot.

      I don't disagree that he got black balled, he did. But his skills & numbers did decline after he left Denver & went to Sacramento. He just wasn't the same player, averaged 7 points a game his last season before going to Europe. So while I do agree he still had a place in the NBA at that time as a bench or role player, he wasn't some killer player lighting up the league when he got black balled like some make it out to be.

    This man was (and still is) a legend around Mississippi and Baton Rouge...he is honestly the best shooter I have ever seen....this man had to be guarded after he passed half court just because he had such range...I hate how people are slighting him because he never averaged more than 19 pts in the NBA during an era in which defenses were so tough that it prompted the league office to change rules so that it made scoring much easier...this IMO has helped Curry to be able to have such gaudy stats....also the offense GS runs is tailored for Steph unlike the offense Denver had where Mahmoud wasn't featured...

Pure God given talent that can't be developed to reach that potential, you got to be given it. Mahmoud abdul Rauf reminds me of Khalid ibn waleed. In his prime, no one can check him and he will drop 35 at minimum even if you have your "A" game on and there is nothing no one can do about it.

    Y'all have to realize that the style of play is completely different in this current era that we are watching now. Steph takes more threes by himself than WHOLE teams did in the late 80s and 90s era. The legendary 88-89 "Bad Boys" Detroit Pistons (who were Champs that year) attempted 400 threes that year. Steph attempted 889 by himself last year!

    Phil Jackson got NBA fans irritate with his twitter comment saying that Steph Curry reminded him of Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf! The man is CLEVER and always has been with things he says on Social Network! They have always been subliminal... Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf and the Denver Nuggets are the ones who broke the Bulls 18 game winning streak in their 95-96 season, which is also the 72-10 season. In that game, Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf destroyed Steve Kerr on offense. He scored 32 points. Phil Jackson's comments were likely an inside joke to Steve Kerr who probably never forgot that game, to former Bulls players who remember that being the end of the streak, to educated NBA fans, and the hype around the Warriors season, and them surpassing 72-10 record. Fans are throwing insults and acting like robots yelling out stats against Phil to prove him wrong...

      +CaliCool91 Of course he could score then as well. But games at that time usually ended in the 90's. Few years later when they started bringing college players in the NBA earlier and earlier it dropped in the 80's. If they kept those rules, they would play in the 70's today. So he would score a lot less.
      Fact is, the rule changes allow for more freedom for offense. Mahmoud never had that. Most games he was handchecked to death which makes it very difficult to get good shots off. Bigger and stronger guards could dictate where he was going. You put somebody like Barkley in the post with these rules, and it would be damn near illegal. The paint is wide open, there are no talented big guys (outside of one or two names) and fundamental basketball skills have deteriorated, by a lot. That's why many guards still struggle to shoot over 45%. Stockton shot 53 percent (I think) in his last year when he was 40+ years old.

    I'm a Laker fan, I remember when this guy was a handful in those years. That's a good feat just because Utah's PACE was always so controlled, not so much because Stockton was on him for a lot of it. It was hard simply for an opponent to get that many shot attempts by himself against them, especially at that building. Your team's shot attempts, at least the Lakers, were always pretty low there, even in the late 90s.

      @@xzcsdf9574 W/ Malone in there, especially, the Jazz were very physical. The rest of them were generally tough players aside from maybe one guy like Chris Morris who was there to score. For finesse teams like LAL, opponents like Utah and SA were too much. The Suns, Sonics, Blazers were in LA's wheelhouse. In this season 1995, I was pissed that LA fell into the 4/5 split because they had SA waiting for them after SEA, who I knew they could play with because LA won 4 of 5 RS gms. SA was a whole different ballgame than the Sonics, good as SEA was. Spurs swept these Nuggz in the 1/8 split. I wanted to draw HOU who were the champs instead of SA. Curiously, tho, the Sonics were also a finesse team, but were a problem team for Utah in those years. As far as the Jazz go, 95 was a disappointment to them because HOU beat them in the 1st round. However, the Rox weren't your average lousy 6th seed in 95. They played poorly all season. Lakers swept them in the RS for the last time since 95. Rockets just turned it on late w/ the add of Clyde.

During the game he actually STOLE Stockton CONFIDENCE!! Only great players can do that to so called good players lolbs.

      And yes Lebron doesn't have that killer instinct Jordan and Kobe had. That is why he keeps switching teams looking for a super team so he can have a free ride to the finals.
      Also in that era that type of shooting was very rare. Even Isiah would lose confidence after a while. Everyone except Jordan do have a breaking point. For some it's much higher than others but everyone has it.
      I've seen Isiah lose confidence in a few games vs Magic after being bullied by Magic's size.

    What most people don't realize when watching match ups with Stockton is that Stockton was the designated double teamer so his man almost always had open 3's and deuces all game, while Stockton ran back to try and get a hand up. Sloan's philosophy to not guard the 3 drove Jazz fans nuts. Sloan would double team even sub par players that any jazz player could play straight up. If Stockton had played other players straight up their numbers would be much lower.

      Three three point line was only moved in for 3 seasons during the 90's and not the entire 90's. 1994-95,1995-96, and 1996-97. The three point line was pushed back to it's normal spot during the 1997-98 season. You would notice MJ's three point percentage was drastically higher(42%) during the 72 wins Bulls season and it dropped back down to his normal 23% in his final year with the Bulls(1997-98).

    • @junheeho6311
      @junheeho6311 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jordan's 3pt% dropped drastically that season mainly because of the ailments on his shooting hand & overall attrition, his overall shooting had regressed to the point that he went from shooting .833 FT% in the 1996-1997 season to shooting .784 for free-throws in 1997-1998. His aging and deteriorated form, the amount of attrition he had accumulated by the time he was deep into another 3-peat, the circumstances that he had to play in almost half of the entire regular season without Pippen as he was side-lined.
      The 1997-1998 season was the only full season where Jordan shot under his average FT% and it was drastically lower. In 1995, when he came back to the NBA and played the last 17 games of the season, he averaged .801% from the foul-line.
      The 3-point line lengthening back to normal in 1997-1998 didn't have that big of an influence on his shooting as most people believe based on the popular narrative that Jordan couldn't shoot threes. Jordan played almost half of the entire regular season without Pippen, which had a bigger influence on his shooting efficiency than the lengthening of the 3-point line.
      For his entire career, for every season where he attempted over 200+ 3P FGA over the course of an entire season, he shot at least .352 from behind the arc. And he only had 4 seasons where he attempted over 200 3-point field-goals and 2 of them were during the 1989-1990 and 1992-1993 season with the regular 3-point line.
      In every single season where he attempted more than 200 over 3-point field-goal attempts, he converted at least 35% and he did this 4 times. Out of all the full seasons that he has played, 1997/1998 season was the only year where he attempted more than 100 over 3-point FGA with very poor 3P% and that's because of his the minor injuries on his shooting hand and knees and back. Every other full seasons that he has played, he has never attempted more than 100 3-point FGA. MJ in his 6th season with the original 3-point line, made 92 out of 245 3 point field-goal attempts at 37.6% shooting and that was highest 3P% he ever averaged for an entire season with the regular 3-point line. The highest 3P% he ever averaged with the shorter 3-point line during a season was the 1994-1995 season where he only played in 17 games and shot 50% of his threes and the following season where he averaged 42.7% in all 82 games he played in.
      That means that out of 13 full regular seasons that he has played in, 8 of them were years where he never made the 3-point shot a significant part of his game, meaning he almost never ever takes a 3-point shot within the flow of the game unless his team needed a 3-point play to win or tie or there was no better option with the shot clock winding down. So going with that small sample size of 3 point shot attempts with a majority of them either being desperation heaves to beat the shot clock or shots that are in pressure situations, it is not an accurate measure for representing MJ's accuracy from beyond the arc.
      This is true to a certain extend for a lot of players that played in the 80s and 90s, it was uncommon for some of the best shooters to even attempt as many as 3 or 4 three-pointers a game. Chris Mullin for example, only attempted 2.2 threes a game for his entire career. Larry Bird only averaged 1.9 three point field-goal attempts a game for his whole career.
