I haven't visited the site and probably won't, but I wonder: did Bird and
Magic generally match up against each other? Bird was a forward and magic a
guard? Now, Wilt and Russ went mano a mano more times than we can remember.
Me? Wilt/Russ, maybe Robinson-Lamotta (if that's a choice.)
On another note: farewell to Utah. Karl, I hope you come back. A player
of your stature should not exit the league with such a clunker of a game.
You deserve better. And even in defeat, I found Stockton magnificent.
