MJ over VJ before VD sets in.

Shawn Marion
vs.
Christian Laettner

The matrix is a better player, but we're talking about the golden boy!
The vote goes to Shawn Marion...I was a Kentucky fan...

Bill Laimbeer
vs.
Chris Duhon

Hated Laimbeer...Duhon.

Dan Majerle
vs.
Phil Jackson

THUNDER DAN!!! He was the coolest guy I ever razzed at a Nuggets game from the third row!

 

Michael Jordan. Easy. Real Easy.

Laettner. Gotta go with the Duke guy here, though I like Marion.

Duhon. One of my favorite players all-time.

Phil Jackson.

 

MJ, before him Al Capone was the most famous thing to come out of Chicago.
Marion, Laettner didn't belong on the original Dream Team & I think even he knows that.
Laimbeer, he was a fantastic villain for the NBA but most importantly he could play.
Majerle, loved the way he played.

 

Jordan
Abstain on the rest -- I hate them all!

Michael Jordan

"The Shot" not withstanding, there's no one more iconic in American Sports.

Christian Laettner

Speaking of iconic ... that shot against UK

Bill Laimbeer

Loved his video game

Dan Majerle

 

But does anybody know who inbounded that ball to Laettner?

<h4>Eastern Conference </h4>

Boston Celtics

Karl Malone
vs.
Earl Manigault

Pete Maravich
vs.
Sean May

Rick Mahorn
vs.
Kevin McHale

George Mikan
vs.
Darko Milicic

 

Gross division.

Earl Manigault
- Easy win for the Goat.

Sean May
- Yeah, he's overweight, be he really catches far too much flak for it. He's one of the best young, offensive bigmen in the league, and he's still improving. I really do think Emeka/May can be an offensive/defensive force to be reckoned with one day. Work ethic leaves a bit to be desired though.

Rick Mahorn
- Ahh, the stories.

George Mikan
- He's freakin George Mikan, for Pete's sake.

 

Karl Malone. The Mailman. Thankfully its not a vote between him and Stockton.

This is a tough one... I respected Sean May while at UNC (and still do), and not being old enough, I never really saw that much of Maravich. Still, Pistol Pete could flat out score. Averaging 44.2 ppg in 3 years at LSU... thats a record that will never be touched. I'll have to go with Maravich here.

Abstain.

Abstain.

Karl Malone

This mailman always delivered

Pete Maravich

Can't vote against Pistol Pete this early

Kevin McHale

The moral of the story: great players make lousy GMs (with the exception of The Logo)

George Mikan

Tempted to vote Darko, just for his role in keeping Detroit from being a true Dynasty. But, no.

 

Make it three in a row

Malone
Maravich
McHale
Mikan

 

Karl Malone
vs.
Earl Manigault

Second all time scorer vs. a playground drug addict? Earl shouldn't even be on the same court as Malone.

Pete Maravich
vs.
Sean May

Pete Maravich woudl literally run circles around May.

Rick Mahorn
vs.
Kevin McHale

McHale

George Mikan
vs.
Darko Milicic

Mikan...the first big ever to really play the game.
