That dunk shot is astounding.

Even though half the references go way over my head (or between my legs), I enjoy the hell out of this new site.

when you say greatest comeback ... do you mean strictly in terms of size or also "greatness"?

the 1987 game featured what may be the worst starting lineup for any NBA team:

C Cartwright
PF Eddie Lee Wilkens
SF Kenny Walker
PG Rory Sparrow
SG Gerald Wilkins

This is a brilliant column(?).

I had the Dr. J v. Bird game. It rocked. I loved playing the computer. I'd be Dr. J. and get Bird all tired and shit. Then I'd have Dr. J dunk on his ass.

Bird had a mean fadeaway in that game, though.

Let us be frank, the most remarkable thing of the Dr J vs Bird game was the blatantly homoerotic cover shot. I mean, I know it was the 80s and stuff, but please. I can't focus on my jumpshot with all those muscles glistening.

Ken Bannister had a good couple seasons in Spain, despite being absolutely nuts. Chris McNealy wasn't bad, not an ounce of skill but muscles you could bounce rocks off. Bob Thornton was not even the best player at Cajamadrid.
